Will Ramos shows me Gojira! Vocal ANALYSIS of "Amazonia"

The jaw harp like sound is a homage to a traditional instrument called berimbau. That mixed with vocalization that the natives chants is what the band is trying to achieve. As a brazilian, I can say that they did briliantly!

[@larissaszemansqui4498]

FODA PRA CARALHO MEU IRMÃO

[@Dave-vu3yn]

I was sure it was a berimbau and kinda bummed when I found out it wasn’t. Took me back to capoeira days.

[@yak6896]

about to say. pretty sure Sepultura used it.

[@noellzy]

@@yak6896 Yeah, this straight up sounded like something off Chaos AD or Roots Bloody Roots. As a bloke the same age as Gojira, I'm not surprised; Sepultura were so good when were young adults.

[@Cadinho93]

The song was written as a vehicle for environmental activism, with launching a fundraising effort on behalf of Brazil's indigenous tribes. Infrastructure, farming, mining, logging is destroying the Amazon. These Amazonian wildfires are a human-made disaster, set by loggers and cattle ranchers who use a "slash and burn" method to clear land. Feeding off very dry conditions, some of those fires have spread out of control. Also, Gojira is one of the grooviest metal arounds around today. This song is a killer.

[@Need4Needle]

also they supported APIB directly (joe at least went to a couple of manifestations), this is why there are those protestsì clips in the video and the speech track close to the end of the song. I'd love to understand what the lady is saying in that speech but it's too buried into the song, and i guess it's in the speaker's language.

[@floreaciprian9742]

and then there's me: Riff goes boing boing boing. Sick

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

When Will suggested this song to me, it was "It's all about the rainforest, and the message is so dang good. Let's do it!" So. Yeah, I'm down for this message!

[@Cadinho93]

@@TheCharismaticVoiceThat's the beauty of it all. Majority of society thinks that heavy metal is just noise or satanic, but it truly isn't. It can be the most beautiful sound in the world, with powerful messages and what's great about it all is that metalheads like ourselves are usually the nicest people on earth.

[@Ivantheterrible81280]

Problem with activism is it’s all protests, no solutions. Get these loggers better jobs where they can make more money. Much of Brazil’s poverty and crime makes North America’s look like a vacation. If I had a family to feed and that was what I needed to do, I’d do it, despite my personal objections. They care about feeding their families & paying their bills. And it makes their economy overall a lot of money. So go there and find a solution. Because marching around with signs doesn’t do jack.

[@LoneWolf-479]

I can't believe where this channel is now. Elizabeth has remained human and humble... The reason we all subscribed, and enjoyed watching week after week. The friendship with Will, has just launched the whole thing to stratospheric levels. 2 totally polarising talents having connection and understanding of each others skills and craft is utterly brilliant. Will is such a class act and really flooring once you experience his vocals. Brilliant.

[@VeritabIlIti]

Vocally speaking, I'd recommend the duo of songs "From Mars" and "To Syrius" as well as "Stranded," "Silvera." "Flying Whales" is still their greatest song for me though!

[@gregorykenfield3134]

[@ambergeenen8208]

Flying Whales gives me goosebumps every single time!! It's literally perfect, by far my fav song of them!

[@dmytrotsvyntarnyi799]

Ackshualy🤓, Joe's vocal are, at the very best, decent. Often, he screams in a way that hurts that hirts the singer's voice, which is the reason why we see him struggling lately. His voice just can't keep up with the abuse it's being put through almost without breaks. I do like Gojira, I'm not even saying that I don't enjoy the vocals. They are very listenable, just not technical. There are a lot of much less known metal vocalists that do much more impressive stuff

[@jonnyj.]

@@dmytrotsvyntarnyi799 Yikes. You clearly dont know shit about vocals. Did you even watch the video? Do you know why these HIGHLY trained vocalists were so confused? Do you know why Will, who is very experienced in metal vocals, couldnt figure out joe's technique? Joe's vocals are THE MOST technical metal vocals i know of. It is INSANELY hard to do pitched screams like him without immediately destroying your voice... which is why no one tries to imitate it. He did it for 20+ years, and still does it today. Meshuggah from the none ep had some cool pitched stuff, but now jens does a typical bland metal scream. Show me a metal vocalist today where you can't tell right away what technique hes doing. I'll wait. There's a reason every metal vocalist does some variation of a basic false chord/fry scream WITHOUT pitch. HInt: its not because its harder ;)

Inferno live at the studio is also great! Better than the album version imo

[@jez_77]

@@dmitrijcesniuk6898 Interesting choice, very underground and oldschool Gojira right there! The Shooting Star from studio is also great, to be fair all of their Silver Cord studio performances are fantastic and theres no surprise since theyre easily one of the best live bands out there and being able to listen to them perform live with a studio quality is just perfect Edit. My mistake, Shooting Star wasnt in Silver Cord but in BBC Radio. Still, a great studio live performance nonetheless

[@dmitrijcesniuk6898]

@MotorhitPL it was a deliberate "niche" choice on my side as the track is not as known as their subsequent work. The album version is truly underground, and I cannot say I enjoy it that much. Whereas the live version sounds pretty much like contemporary Gojira. Plus that haunting dissonant intro. Plus stellar live vocals. P.S. this is by no means to say that their live tracks incl. Global Warming or North Star are bad. They are just as fine. If I had to pick one over the other, I would go for Global Warming at the Silver Cord Studio. There's something magical in that version.

In Flames is a Swedish band that started as "melodic death metal" but slowly transitioned to an alternative sound, and they (along with other Swedish bands) have had massive influence on American 2000's metal bands. Anders is incredibly underrated imo, he does an excellent job of mixing pure clean vocals with screaming within the same line, Great songs to check out would be Clayman, or Only for the Weak, both from their album Clayman, or Take this Life from their album Come Clarity!

have listened to gojira for a while but just got the live experience and jesus that made me such a fan in that 90 minutes, such an awesome band that creates a literal barrage of voice with only 4 members, its crazy.

[@aaronpreston47]

Stranded is my favourite Gojira song, such a good beat.

[@digitalmouse3314]

I freaking the love the Berimbau best part of the song some peple think it is a Jaw Harp but it's not

[@MrGameControler]

for me it's Silvera, love that almost hypnotic chorus.

[@Fascinatingstreet]

@@MrGameControlersilvera is the song that got me into them 🔥

[@stevenweber7793]

Same! The hook/riff on the song is so damn catchy and headbang inducing I love it lol

[@villalowboss]

It was for me too now I love backbone, the heaviest matter of the universe,art of dying,the gift of guilt. And pretty much all their stuff.

[@dicebokoble4283]

1 A + E (skipping over a few 16ths in there to make the rhythm) is a great syncopation and honestly my favorite to jam to. It just flows so well and is just off enough to catch your ear. In percussion, there is a lot of jams and such you can doo with that poly rhythm.

[@dicebokoble4283]

Also, I recommend Listing to Cheval by Igorr. It absolutely nuts.

[@renatamonsalve4400]

Will dancing the macarena in the first 10 seconds was all I needed to make my week😂❤

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Ahahaha!

[@Bogeyman19DidNotScareMyAss]

Ewww

[@pkopo1]

Will is such a great guy, saw lorna shore live 2 days ago and Will is just so energetic and in touch with the crowd

[@gymkayazero]

I have loved this band since 2012; hopefully you guys get around to analyzing some of their older stuff as well (the albums From Mars To Sirius, The Way of all Flesh, and L'Enfant Sauvage remain my personal holy trinity)

[@polias1033]

Finally, after so many years Gojira!!! To appreciate their artistry, you have to see their live performances.😊

[@M0torsagmannen]

Will and you together nerding out over Gojira is so great to see!

[@BrianYates-ct9db]

Good morning from New England..Hell yeah I've been waiting for TCV to hit up some Gojira..They are my number 1 band and I've seen them 6 times over the yrs and each time they have put on the best show and pour every ounce of energy into each song especially the bassist Jean-Michel and Mario Duplantier...Let's gooooo ✌️🧐🤘🤘

[@terra2740]

Please do more gojira, they have such a great discography. My favorite band easily.

[@marcelosantos21433]

I get goosebumps when i hear joe singing, it so unique, brutal, melodic, full of steroids... I fucking love that man... AND HE PLAYS GUITAR WHILE DOING ALL THAT

[@eigengrau7698]

i would like to add that one of my favorite live track of gojira is pray from red rocks. it just a delay effect, but the sound becomes MASSIVE

[@metalman2]

It’s off their recent album, but we need the old stuff that made them. Silvera, heaviest matter of the universe, stranded, lenfant sauvage, flying whales, etc

[@tn_bayouwulf2949]

I second this motion!

[@laxstateofmind]

L’enfant sauvage!!!!

[@jez_77]

Born in winter or Global warming (live) would be perfect for vocal analysis

[@neighbourhoodmusician]

Art of Dying

[@HandOfMetal]

Can't go wrong with Elephant Sausage.

[@cloogleflurmf6698]

The passion is what really makes these videos so much fun to enjoy. We all just get to come here and nerd out over things we enjoy in music, and I think that's wonderful.

[@IvysPoison1987]

As an Aussie definitely doesnt sound like a didgeridoo. Love the friendship between you two, its just so damn wholesome

[@joshpainwins]

These co-reactions/song breakdowns is literally my favourite thing on youtube right now. So cool to learn stuff with your combined knowledge, great reactions from both and the most precious sibling energy of all time. I appreciate you guys infinitely, much love

[@MelBermudezMCR]

The videos with Will are amazing! I absolutely love them 💕 I recommend the band Bad Omens and a couple of their songs "Just Pretend" "The Death of Peace of Mind" "Concrete Jungle" and "Artificial Suicide" from the last CD or maybe "Dethrone" "Careful What You Wish For" "Limits" "Never Know" except for "Dethrone" the last 3 have an Unplugged version I hope you like it Have a beautiful day🫶🏻✨️

[@cloudeye7]

So happy you and Will gave your take on Gojira! My favorite metal band! (I love Lorna Shore too, don't worry lol)

[@an0126]

So happy to finally see Gojira on here, and with Will it's even better haha. I definitely would love to see more, super powerful music. If i can suggest something, another really great french band, The Ascending, recently released an incredible album full of great singing and screaming, especially the first song

[@51L3NTF1R3]

im so grateful for their friendship .. stayed up almost all night enjoying the vibes . so much fun . i cant recall smiling, laughing and talking along with them, doing this with any other content for so long in so long . thank you, both of you !! - i really needed a soul refill . fistbump* ___

[@sarumanork-orphanage5612]

Hey Elizabeth, will you be going to Hellfest in France next year? With Gojira being a very successfull French metal band, they're almost guaranteed to be there too, and Hellfest is just gigantic. I haven't been yet, but I have pretty solid plans to go next year!

[@tinkerintony2178]

I love watching this Opera singer and Metalhead friendship grow. Will and Elizabeth, thank you for sharing your love for music with us.

[@alexharms9145]

Gojira is one of the best bands out there!

[@lilithch9115]

Watching Gojira live for the first time was an experience that really stuck with me. The visuals compared with the instrumentals and then there's Joe's powerful vocals that you just feel in your core - I'm not kidding when I tell you I ended up crying because I was just stunned by everything.

[@tanitam.7838]

I love this friendship, so wholesome.

[@lgilbert376]

you two have a such an awesome collaboration. Really feed off each other in the best way. keep it up.
