GOJIRA Stranded Reaction!!!

[@timglasser9502]

So Your feed back is good however one thing to consider here. Is Joe (lead singer guitarist), and Mario ( brother of Joe Duplantier and drummer), their mother was on her deathbed when they wrote this song. It's basically about her dying and they have no more time with her and also the anguish and pain from not having time to reconcile hardships she endured and also not being able to say good by to her.

[@VinAndSori]

Dann

[@meruemsama7770]

this song is about dealing about the death of joes (singer) and marios (drummer) mother. finding out the diagnosis and feeling like there is nothing you can do. (joe and mario are brothers for those who don't know)

[@jhoggatt51]

Your thinking of shooting star

[@mimoucremeux]

Pretty much all the Magma Album

[@SKULLEDBUICK]

@@jhoggatt51 Definitely not just Shooting Star lol. Read the lyrics to each song on Magma.

[@Roonagu]

First song (The shootin star) and "last" song (Lowlands) are definitelly about death of their mother. But other songs.. The Cell is about social media.I am certain that I heard Joe say in interview that Stranded is about..well being Stranded in the toxic relationship.

Gojira -- Oroborus. The guitar work is rapid, intricate, and phenomenal, and it's their best song.

Very impressive song. Their song Silvera is also killer. My suggestion is as always Allegaeon: Proponent for sentience III the Extermination. Brutal riffing and excellent soloing. A mix of growling and singing.

[@curtismorgan9789]

Such a good song, they have become one of my favorite bands recently. I always enjoy watching your reactions. If you two do another Gojira reaction I'd definitely recommend Esoteric Surgery, I feel like it's one of their most underrated songs but freakin awesome

Ride on! Gojira is one of my favorite bands! Would love to see a reaction to one of Jonathan Davis's music videos

[@not_a_samsquamsh6777]

I was just thinking about asking for The Axe by Gojira when I was watching the Lynard Skynard video yesterday, then BOOM, stranded. If you do check out The Axe, the one from Brixton is great.

Guys Gojira are the most underated metal band in the world at the moment. I discovered them 12 years ago and their style is unique and their own. Their music is technically sound, brutally heavy and lyrically inspiring. Thank you both for reviewing Gojira...much love from down under!

[@FatalUnfair]

Took me a while to get in to Gojira. When I first heard about them, I was listening Stranded every day and trying their other songs every now and then but couldn't get in to them first. Now I basicly love all of their stuff, but I have my clear favorites: -Oroborus -Toxic Garbage island -Global Warming -Only Pain -Silvera +The songs you've already done.

Man, I had tickets to see Gojira & Mastodon earlier this year here in NZ, but after an immense stuff up with both the bands' gear being shipped back to the States from Australia instead of across to lil old Auckland (thus causing a mad scramble around the city on the day for lending a bit of everything just so the show could go ahead) they ended up starting the show an hour early. Of course me and my mate had no idea until we turned up at the arena just as Gojira were finishing (and by all accounts they were off the chain!!!!!)..... 'tear Mastodon were immense themselves, but damn missing Gojira gutted me :( and no doubt will be at least a few years before theyake their way back down this way again...

[@BLeeFAFO]

The arpeggiated figures in the main riff, Both guitarists are using Whammy pedals or some other harmonizer effect. You can set it to a separate interval or octave from the note you're playing. Dime did use a Whammy on a ton of Pantera and DamagePlan songs. He usually would set his two octaves up to hit extremely high notes a guitar can't orherwise reach. But these dudes are definitely using a harmonizer of some sort.

[@EmperorHelix]

Sabaton is a huge band but y'all haven't covered them yet. "Ghost Division" or "To Hell and Back" music video.

Gojira is superb. Might not get the community love they deserve, but certainly on my radar.

Great song. Driving riff, with that higher consistent discordant guitar section, mingled with aggressive vocals. Solid musicianship too hypnotic for words. 10/10.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the him trying to fix himself. I can relate to that currently. Did some things I completely regret and I'm hoping that the other side will have the patience to not lock the door on me and give me a second chance. I feel the stranded in the night/cold could be the guilt and alienation that comes with it. It falls into context with the noise inside(overthinking due to guilt). And it's hard to silence those voices/thoughts. Great analysis though, thanks for things to think about! When you do the next Gojira, I would ask for L'enfant sauvage.

You guys are great. Gojira is by far the best newish metal band on the planet. Still pushing the genre in new territories but remaining musical and melodic. Magma album which this song is off of is a metal masterpiece. These type of albums are truely special. Mastodon is another band you should check out. Cheers.

[@ludvigtheholyblade259]

This riff also reminded me of Dimebag when I first heard it last year. You're right Vin. Gojira are fans of PanterA so it's a tribute. Which is interesting that they did that on the one song about their (singer and drummer) mother's passing. Cancer I believe ("A growing sickness in the heart, defective lack of control. The cure is somewhere in the silence, but I'm crushed by the noise inside". This song has very profound lyrics when you know what the song's about. Cheers guys. More Gojira (Ororborus, Where Dragons Dwell & Silvera - all live).

[@DankLonk1980]

Gojira - Lowlands. Very pretty song.

[@vikusen1857]

Gojira - shooting Star that's a Gojira song that depart itself from the rest. Real treasure. Heavy but some elemental sounding!! Think no one has reacted to this one. They have done one studio live video of this that kills.

[@stevendeherrera2240]

One of my FAVORITE RIFFS...even though ya know I'm not a "true" metal connoisseur.

[@alexandraionescu4121]

OMG! I think I've never agreed with Vin more then here: I have been in a relation where my boyfriend put me in the center of his whole life. Maybe for someone on the outside it may sound "romantic" but for me it was hell. No matter how much I loved him in the beginning by the end I just got so tired of always being the one "responsabile for his happiness". So the more he tried to keep me closer the more I pushed away. Now I see that it was a toxic relation and I feel so much more happy and free. Sorry for the long comment :P P.S.: Can't forget my daily request to revisit Avatar :D!

[@VinAndSori]

Such good points!!

[@EDsavant]

Alexandra Ionescu this song is about his dying mother vin is almost never near the meaning of the song and his wife is clueless about everything and most times he tries to talk about how much of a bad ass he thinks he is.

[@alexandraionescu4121]

@@EDsavant When you first listen to a song (without any background check beforehand) you're bound to give your own interpretation: music, like any other form of art is prone to that. Personally, I agree with Vin regarding the type of relationship he was describing and why it shouldn't be viewed as "romantic" but rather "toxic", because I've been in that situation. Regarding the real meaning of the song: yes, most (if not all) songs from Magma are about their mother dying, but you have to understand why someone (not knowing that fact) would assume a different meaning. If you look at the lyrics you can see why Vin assumed that's their meaning and I'm sure if you were to tell him the true meaning he will agree with you. I respect his opinion, I respect yours and the ultimate goal should just be to enjoy the music. Sorry for the long reply and thank you for yours.
