Seriously though, gojira has totally master the art of soudning heavy without sounding heavy, and sounding chill while being heavy lol, that being said, it definetly sounds like gojira
Yeah, I don't see (or hear) how this is similar to Magma, but I do hear the resemblance to the lighter songs off of From Mars to Sirius. If this becomes a full album it might take top spot out of their discography tbh
I do feel that they will show more aggression in other songs once the album is released, but Joe did say he doesn’t JUST want to make heavy songs anymore, he wants to lean into the direction they did with Magma which I honestly love, but i agree the the vocals felt very washed out and faded if that makes sense, as you said it needs to be louder, more clear
Actually, after Magma, Joe said in some interview that they will be going back to more complex songs like on Mars and Flesh. Though I agree that this sounds like it could fit Magma. I'm not even mad. I love this song lol.
Nik Nocturnal a fun fact! Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Nick, you’re a big inspiration for me (and many other subs too). And it’s very cool, that you answer comments too, very glad to be able to communicate with you even a little bit! 🤘🏻
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 people are having a bad year, everyone finds bits of happiness that change their mindset from different things. If you want to be a pessimist because you don't like repetitiveness and people that are not OC and pioneers on every comment just keep it to yourself
I expect this album to be less aggressive. Been following what Joe wants to do, he needs to back off the screaming from 1999-2016, it's difficult now, but he can still yell like a beast. Bangers all around, but with age comes limitations, I think this album will still be their best album yet.
I love how he uploaded this after he uploaded his cover; edit: im aware he recorded this before his cover but uploaded the cover first, just before anyone tried to yell at me about it
I can't describe what's that thing that Gojira does to make me love them at first listen comparing to other bands, but I think it's that they do stuff that's so unique and you've never heard before, and if other try to do that it sucks. For example, I'm not a fan of synthesizers in Metal, but on this song and "A sight to behold" they use it the right way and just the right amount.
For me, it's the cyclic guitar riffs. It is so hypnotic that it really puts you in a different mindspace. Then you put the vocals alongside that and it's just transcending.
I can see where you are going with that. It's not as harsh sounding as some other super heavy Gojira tracks. I'm assuming they'll have a few chunky heavy-as-shit songs on this album and this is rolling out as a single.
It has a similar kind of structure for sure. Beautiful arrangement and production. Massive melodic hooks. Catchy riff movement. It just has that heavy groove but melds into almost a shoegaze type layering.
Joseph Bastidas Gojira’s been taking pages out of the Mastodon manual since Magma, and while it’s awesome, I don’t feel like it’s what I need in my life right now :/
I wish there was a bit more to it, i know they're purposefully trying to strip things back and simplify things, but i do pine for the earlier stuff. This entire song is basically two riffs. I don't hate it by any means, i just think they have lost their ferocity ever since magma.
Gojira have said that this standalone single is basically their own take on the story of the original planet of the apes, not exactly interstellar but close enough lol
I love Gojira but this song does sound a bit recycled with their other stuff. Much particularly, it sounds like a combo of Born in Winter and Gift of Guilt. I still dig it tho =)
Restraint That is the word I would use to describe the song. And it fits so well for the whole theme of this song. First I did miss the aggression too, but now, after multiple times hearing it, I understand the song and the intentions behind it a bit better. I think its great and it leaves me hoping for a great new album.
You should react to the guy that cover the song like even before many people saw the original, I think you know him, is that guy that won the shredders of metal season 2
The past few months I’ve been trying to imagine what their new music would sound like and this song is more than I could conjure. I fucking love how simple yet melodic and catchy it is. So fun to play on guitar too.
I actually love that the vocals are kinda just an ambient instrument in this track. I hear huge post metal and shoegaze influences, but without any compromise in the songwriting and then instrumentation choices. Really love it still.
Regardless of what someone thinks about the song, it's pretty amazing that they make someone recognize their style of riff right from the jump/in a matter of seconds.
It's like they're going into the more proggier side without abandoning the vocals or heaviness. Opeths latest album sounded like a proto-metal 60s/70s rock band. Not bad, but not what attracted me to them. And no, I haven't heard everything ever.

*I misses Gojira so damn much*
i misses gojira too lmao
I misses it too
*Me 3 comrade*
Same same same, love it so much! Like many has said, it's like a mix between mid-gojira and magma, and it's beautiful. Gief album plz! GG!
Missesed*
Seriously though, gojira has totally master the art of soudning heavy without sounding heavy, and sounding chill while being heavy lol, that being said, it definetly sounds like gojira
Definitely progressively moving but totally just Gojira and the heart of the Band. I dig it. Awesome mixing.
And they don't really tune very low tunning
Well said
@@NikNocturnal I just checked out your cover of it. Excellent job. I think I listened to the track like 6 times today. That says something!
Your evaluation of their sound is on point 🔥
they figured out how to travel from mars to sirius
Derp
after all those years
At least it wasn't Uranus.
Good one bro! 🤟
Wonder if they found the whales
*sees the Eiffel Tower covered in the jungle*
"OH GG"
Paris Is now a tropical jungle
It reminds me of the beginning of the song "B*tch you guessed it" from Og something
I laughed and cried at the same time because of this f u Nik xD
When Global Warming and Oroborus have a child
and Wild Healer
and the shooting star
And a little bit of born in winter
Fr if all these songs mashed the heavy would be comparitively brutal
surprised nobody realized that the chorus is almost identical to Only Pain
I love how Mario don't wear shirt in video, realism 100%
this is basically what interstellar would’ve been if gojira had complete creative control
Interstellar is my most favourite movie of all time, don't touch it! :D
When you cover before you react
Dude right
Patches lol he obviously reacted to this before he covered it but he’s just posting this after
Tazz eyy r/woooosh
You know the song but nevee heard it
Chances of success: 0.11% EZ.
Their newer stuff sounds like they’re just having fun honestly and I love that
^^ it's fun to play
@@NikNocturnal FRRRR
This honestly reminds me a lot of "Global Warming" and "Gift of Guilt" maybe? just had vibes from it I liked from both of those
definitely reminds me of the gift of guilt
For me it sounds like Oroborus but with Magma vocals, but it also has a Global Warming vibe too
Drexy bruh, gojira talked about Covid in the lyrics ‘the virus is spreading’ hmmm.
feels like Global warming, Magma, Low lands and Born in Winter mixed together. Cool song.
Yeah, I don't see (or hear) how this is similar to Magma, but I do hear the resemblance to the lighter songs off of From Mars to Sirius. If this becomes a full album it might take top spot out of their discography tbh

Carlo Gonzales its such a good song
It makes me think of Mars to Sirius plies magma, and if that’s the case, then this album will be phenomenal
I enjoyed Magma, but I definitely hope they got some heavier bangers
This is a very gojira sounding track
Yeah, it's by Gojira.
Indeed. Indeed.
This is a Magma sounding track
@@cUb3P1xL the newest green day album must sound just like dookie to you.
@@zynosgd9982 Magma is Gojira
Uh-huh, so, reaction took it longer, than learning the whole song... typical Nick 🤷🏻♂️
This was recorded prior
Just didnr get uploaded first
Surprisingly editing the cover took less time so I just uploaded it first
Nik Nocturnal a fun fact! Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Nick, you’re a big inspiration for me (and many other subs too). And it’s very cool, that you answer comments too, very glad to be able to communicate with you even a little bit! 🤘🏻
Did... did you seriously just release a reaction AFTER you covered it mere hours after its release!??!
I'm too tired for this
Nik is so fast he dropped a cover before he even heard the song
7/10 not enough whales and pick scrapes
@Bean's Butter Review WagonAnd impossible drum parts that make all drummers around the world simultaneously nut
well,did u forget about the new mastadon!!????
Fallen torches is sick
Ooo I gotta check it!
Glad I’m not the other one that instantly thought of Borderlands
I thought of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, with Borderlands
But now gojira not have a whale :(
For haters: "I wish their spaceship goes to Uranus."
Good one
I dont think anybody hates them tho
I see Gojira, I click
I think they're going back from Sirius :>
Raphael Stivans Prayudhi haha nice
2020 isn’t looking so bad any more
Uh there's been plenty of great music...
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 if this is his favourite band that just made his whole year why do you have to be such an a-hole about it?

With this reaction, I have listened to this song 7 times today. Great song. 10 out of 10 for me. Long live Gojira!!! 🤘🤘🤘
The wait was long, but it was worth it
Long? It’s only been a few years

The end of this video is an obvious reference to the movie Planet of the Apes from 1968.
Feels for reals. This is literally the second Gojira song to bring tears to my eyes (Flying Whales was the first). This is my favorite band
Well I would ask for my raise so right now haha
Glad you liked the clip
2:00 It's Qwant, a french search engine ;)
That depends up to 60% on Bing 🤡
@@_JC_Denton_So what?
Bruh you really put out a cover before even reacting to it LMFAO
I love how he uploaded this after he uploaded his cover; edit: im aware he recorded this before his cover but uploaded the cover first, just before anyone tried to yell at me about it
I love a song with a repetitive hook that you still can't get enough of even after 5 minutes... That riff is sick!!!
Goes to physics exam, the exam is just Dream theatre tabs with missing bits where you have to fill in the blanks
Now we just need Gojira’s reaction to your cover! 😂
Never clicked this fast. I see Gojira, I clicked.
If ya really like Gojira, you need to do a reaction video to Orbit Culture from Sweden.... it's like a mix between Gojira and Metallica.
I can't describe what's that thing that Gojira does to make me love them at first listen comparing to other bands, but I think it's that they do stuff that's so unique and you've never heard before, and if other try to do that it sucks.

Cover and reaction? You’re spoiling us, Nik.
No whale in the sky... wut :/
The cover before the reaction, pog lmao
In all honesty this is probably my least favorite Gojira song...certified banger.
i love this band and i do like this song but this also kind of seems like the foo fightersification of gojira
I can see where you are going with that. It's not as harsh sounding as some other super heavy Gojira tracks. I'm assuming they'll have a few chunky heavy-as-shit songs on this album and this is rolling out as a single.
Bro this dont make sense he covered the song before the reaction what?!
He probably recorded both and made a mistake uploading the cover first and then the reaction
Sam Ward Yeah you’re right, he said at the end of the cover that he might upload the cover first and then the reaction
I listened to this track a lot today. Can't get it out of my head. I love it so much. Thanks for the double videos, you're a gift man.
Anyone else get gift of guilt vibes ?
It has a similar kind of structure for sure. Beautiful arrangement and production. Massive melodic hooks. Catchy riff movement. It just has that heavy groove but melds into almost a shoegaze type layering.
Okay, maybe 2020 is not a complete disaster now that Gojira is back :p
This sounds like a lost track on Mastodon's Crack the Skye album
That's what I was thinking too, very Mastodon-esque vocal patterns and melodies
Joseph Bastidas Gojira’s been taking pages out of the Mastodon manual since Magma, and while it’s awesome, I don’t feel like it’s what I need in my life right now :/
I read this as, this sounds like a lost track from the greatest album of all time.
I wish there was a bit more to it, i know they're purposefully trying to strip things back and simplify things, but i do pine for the earlier stuff. This entire song is basically two riffs. I don't hate it by any means, i just think they have lost their ferocity ever since magma.
Can react to Open Eye by Orbit Culture?? btw awesome video !!
I love the little inspiration to interstellar or something like that, the gargantua, the melodies and gojira being fantastically gojira.
Gojira have said that this standalone single is basically their own take on the story of the original planet of the apes, not exactly interstellar but close enough lol
I love Gojira but this song does sound a bit recycled with their other stuff. Much particularly, it sounds like a combo of Born in Winter and Gift of Guilt. I still dig it tho =)
Listened to this song on repeat for 8 hours straight today
Just stop calling yourself "Metal Musician".
I love how the video uses actual geometry from physics for time travel
“That’s Gojira” first thought that came to me when I first listened in my reaction video. Epic riffs
The story on this song told by the singer himself, on our channel ❤️ (with english subtitiles, off course)
Nikkk you gotta react to “somebody that I used to know” by Three Days Grace
Wow I'm too early I don't know what to comment
2nd viewer.. totally worth clicking so fast 🔥
it was a 9/10 to me it’s almost flying whales good
I don't think you can compare both songs. Flying is a LITTLE BIT MORE HEAVY xD
Nathan Cariou i meant like it terms of just overall goodness if that’s a word xD
Restraint
That is the word I would use to describe the song. And it fits so well for the whole theme of this song.

Nik: "Maybe you guys will get both a reaction and a cover"
Me knowing that he already posted the cover: 👁👄👁
Hey, Nik!
Сome on top bridges of MIW??
They have such great breeches that I think they deserve a separate video!)
I actually love that the vocals are kinda just an ambient instrument in this track. I hear huge post metal and shoegaze influences, but without any compromise in the songwriting and then instrumentation choices. Really love it still.
REACT TO PARAZIT - ZERO TO ME, they are a band from my town Guadalajara, pliz. Da a conocer el talento mexicano
Please react to Orbit Culture. They released a new album called Nija and it's a banger!
Man please react to some Malevolence. With you being a guitarist, you're going to love it. They are so groovy and heavy.
L'fant sauvage vibes
I love the fact that you react to this video after covering it.
That video was incredible. Looked so fuckin' good.
"OH GG"
Bad.
Regardless of what someone thinks about the song, it's pretty amazing that they make someone recognize their style of riff right from the jump/in a matter of seconds.
