I think youd appreciate Gojiras track 'Flying Whales' ALOT

Agreed. Cool song by a great band.

I think everyone should appreciate Flying Whales, it is a masterpiece.

[@liliIiliIilil]

From Mars to Sirius is still my favorite album of theirs.

Gojira: The Art of Dying. THATS a well put together Song.

[@petergjata1498]

Agree

[@Unnon1989]

agree, The Art of Dying, Flying Whales and Stranded are my top 3 songs ^^

[@minxy6121]

That song is pure metal mastery. Key of Geebz would fuckin dig that song fr.

Way of the flesh is overall the best.

[@tommydimmel1914]

Definitely still one of my favorite tunes of all time.

And for Gojira, of course, The Art of Dying

[@heytoast7129]

After that I would add: Ocean Planet To Sirius Remembrance Pray

[@pugovitz]

@@heytoast7129 I can't listen to From Sirius without listening to From Mars first, I see them as one track. Kinda like Tool's Parabol and Parabola, one without the other feels incomplete.

[@seanfrancis2]

"The Art of Dying" and "Ouroboros" are my favorite Gojira songs. "The Art of Dying" in particular is probably their masterpiece. It's their "Stairway", their "2112", their "Master of Puppets". It may not be their most commercially known song, but it is a masterpiece none the less.

[@truedarklander]

I'm sure they spell the song Oroborus

I love how you phrased listening to a metal singer, "I don't listen to the words, I treat the vocalist as an instrument". This is a perfect summarization for how someone that doesnt exactly like metal should approach it.

Gojira - The Art of Dying

[@KarRuptAssassin]

Gojira is still around, still touring, still putting out stuff. recently put out a new song called Another world. Flying whales is one of their more famous one. Silvera is off one of the most recent albums, though all of their music is great honestly. Joe and Mario Duplantier (the singer/guitarist and drummer respectively) are amazing together.

[@hendrikkiefer3325]

And they are making a new album atm

[@walthaley3858]

I agree. Good call

[@serhafiye7046]

[@jackthomas8657]

I'd like Mastodon 100x more if they didn't have a masturbatory guitar solo in every single song

[@melkor5901]

ABSOLUTELY

[@jinxie1080]

The Czar is absolutely insane, that solo would probably melt his brain. Now as much as I'd like him to react to The Last Baron, I think it's such a perfect album closer that I'd rather he listen to the whole Crack The Skye album and enjoy it in his own time

[@tommydimmel1914]

A lot of people have said this to me now that I've been listening to Gojira over the past year; that their live shows are phenomenal, like Tool. Hope I get to see them one day. I've seen Tool a number of times.

[@briandonnell5434]

They effin' crush live, dude. One of the few bands that actually sound better live than on the albums.

[@ManSquatch777]

I have had the opportunity to see Gojira at Aftershock in Sacramento, CA twice now. So awesome to see in a festival setting. Loud and the double bass thumping. I hope to see them again in 2021 at Aftershock again if it actually happens.

[@tommydimmel1914]

@@ManSquatch777 When it finally hit me that the drummer for Gojira was actually playing those double-bass parts, with that power, at that speed, with that accuracy, without any cheats, I discovered Mario Duplantier. This was years ago, and I have been obsessed with Gojira ever since. For me, that's the #1 thing that keeps bringing me back to this band; as a lifelong drummer, I have to marvel at how unbelievably clean Mario's double bass work is; sure there's lots of other guys that can go that fast, but not like that; not with that much power; you can hear the air in between each stroke. In theory, this is a fairly simply band; but in reality they're TITANS! Honestly, Gojira TOTALLY flew over my head for years before I finally realized: THEY ARE ONE OF THE GREATS!!!

[@tommydimmel1914]

@@ManSquatch777 Amazing you got to see them up in Sacramento!

[@6mikey9]

YES! He listened again! Thank you for making these.

[@Wnuwk]

You’re at Gojira already?! Man, you travel fast! Thank you for taking us on this journey. Gojira’s music speaks to me on a deep personal level and I feel very fortunate to have seen them live from their early ventures out of their native France. If there is one song I would love to recommend by them - and there are many - it would be Flying Whales. That sh*t is epic. Heaviest riff known to man

[@PrometheanAct]

About Gojira, try "The heaviest matter in the universe" or "the art of dying". They are 10/10. Silvera is a great song but if you look at the others its more a gojira "pop song" so to speak.

[@Qyngali]

Silvera is one of their more straight forward songs for sure, :)

[@alexc7913]

It's the perfect song to introduce someone to the band and/or the genre, its an easier song to listen to

[@PrometheanAct]

@@alexc7913 it depends from which side you are coming from. For listeners from more prog, or extrem music this song is far more "boring". Dont get me wrong, I really like this song, but you can also get the impression that Gojira does standard-pop-song.buildups.

[@keluargabuleminang]

"Flying Whales" from Gojira is a beautiful one to discover and explore as well! I'm french and I still remember them playing their first album "terra incognita" in my city Agen when I still was 15yrs old! I never imagine they'll go so far, they're truly amazing.

[@francoislemoignan879]

Best french metal band imho. Be proud of them my cousin they're amazing (guy from Quebec here lol)

[@joshuajohnson3505]

Heaviest matter of the universe by Gojira. Possibly the heaviest riff in metal.

You are what this community needed. Reactions are a dime a dozen, but actually learning about the song and bands we love through your ears are a godsend Edit: please don't worry about pausing the video to add thoughts. We are here because of what you add with your knowledge and perspective. 👊

[@robertburdinie1151]

I subbed to this channel just to wait for him to discover Gojira.

[@relinquished6974]

Wow, finally a react channel where someone loves all kinds of music and loves talking about music! If you like prog stuff inspired by classics like King Crimson, Genesis, Rush etc definitely check out more Opeth. They started as a pure death metal band, then went more and more prog until they went full prog rock in 2011. They have a big discography and everything they've done is great. I recommend Blackwater Park or Deliverance as a good starting point. Or if you want pure prog rock then Cusp of Eternity or Moon Above Sun Below

[@MJ-hk7qk]

10:37 Yes! Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize live in Tilburg - confirmed. That video is 17 and a half minutes long

[@MJ-hk7qk]

@@QyngaliYes, brilliant performance and he has to see Gavin Harrison playing live. That drummer will blow him away

[@barkingmadman1169]

Both studio and live are good, but I definitely prefer the guitar solo in the studio version. There's nothing wrong with his playing in the live version, but the "voice" of the guitar sounds horrible. It just stands out so awkwardly in an otherwise brilliant live recording that it taints my enjoyment of the whole song.

[@Hammer56Time]

Art of Dying is like 3 different 3 minute songs in one 9 minute one

Also, I feel this wasn’t the best album to start Gojira with. The Way of All Flesh, From Mars To Sirius or L’Efant Savauge would be a good intro.

Great video as always! I'd left a comment recommending some bands on a previous video, but I hadn't listed any specific songs, so here's my personal top 3's for them: Dimmu Borgir: - Progenies of the Great Apocalypse - Council of Wolves and Snakes - The Serpentine Offering Wintersun: - Sons of Winter and Stars - Time - Any song from the "The Forest Seasons" album Cradle of Filth: - Heaven Torn Asunder - From the Cradle to Enslave - Her Ghost in the Fog

[@DevonRyeTheDragonfly]

The band Maximum The Hormone has the best songwriting Ive ever heard! I strongly recommend you to give a listen to their song "yoshu fukushu". Their other stuff is great as well but "yoshu fukushu" not only feels like a story but an epos with twists and turns.

[@Amminidab]

Yo, Gojira is sick. Big ups for checking them out. Definitely check out some of their other work, too! If you want some Prog Rock to check out, I recommend Coheed & Cambria. The Dark Sentencer is a newer song from the first LP in their pentalogy concept album. kzbin.info/www/bejne/imTdnmSVf7iDhbM I highly suggest looking up a bit of the story before listening since it's got a good bit of storytelling in the track.
