I just literally put this on and was thinking what is it about this band? that makes them so good? Live and in general. I just happened to look down and read your comment and was like THATS EXACTLY IT!!! 🤘😆🤘
@@Iak64 In my opinion Slipknot is not that great live, because Coreys scream is kinda falling apart and tortila mans backin vocals sucks sooo much :DDD but i still love Slipknot :D
@@paulatreides1354 The link Alive is another GREAT show of early Gojira, I recommend it to everybody here, old songs like 'In The Forest' or 'Remembrance' are amazing at that show.
Anyone who was skeptical of Magma when it first came out and thought that the album wasn't heavy enough and a departure from the Gojira sound is probably walking in shame these days. This album was phenomenal and every single song has been a must to see live at shows.
Magma is great for the shows because unlike their other albums there's no (that I can remember) multitracking of the guitars. On the album it won't sound as heavy as From Mars to Sirius where there's 20 guitars mixed to sound heavy as fuck, but live where they only have 2 guitars to work with it really shines.
My personal issue with the album was and still is the sound of drums. It's great by itself, but in the context of Gojira's discography it sounds a bit out of the place. Not as powerful as I'd expect it to be. On the album I hear more heads (plastics) of Mario's drums than their body. Just listen to the intro of Low Lands: we hear sound that is caught by room mics and Mario undoubtedly plays very powerfully as always, he hits hard and his snare makes this rifle-like sound. But then as the song moves on sound-engineer "hides" the body and puts heads on the front, the power is lost, that's why the overall sound of the band is less heavy. We can compare this version of Pray with great sounding drums and album version with Ok (by Gojira standarts and my feeling of the band) drums. The difference is obvious imho. And yeah, Gojira kicks ass🤘One of my all time favourite. Magma isn't soft at all, especially emotional-wise.
@@Leclwrd So you're saying that a) the old Gojira sounded heavy as fuck when performed live despite only two guitars, or you saying b) that Magma sounds just like it does on the album and is consequently heavy as fuck, because it was written for and with, only two guitars?
Are you sure you're not confusing criticisms of L'Enfant Sauvage with this album, cos' those critiques were true imo. But Magma is like The way of all flesh and L'Enfant got drunk, fucked each other, and birthed a beautiful baby boy..... born with cat eyes...... and sharp teeth!
I heard the songs from Magma live before listening to the album (stranded, only pain, the cell and shooting star) I liked them but I didn't think they were as heavy as older songs and the voice was softer too. Hearing them for the first time live with all the lighting effects was phenomenal. When I heard this song I instantly fell in love, well I'm a huge Gojira fan too. This guys are on another level, I even showed a coworker this álbum and he plays it at work (he wasn't a metal head)
This is everything you love about this band captured in a single performance. I'm still waiting for a live album with this extended version. An extended studio version for a Best Of compilation would also be highly appreciated. This song is like metal trance. It takes you on quite a journey.
@@thalloutboy Thall?? But yes, beauty in simplicity and musical integrity is something I think far too many people over look in modern metal. Not everything has to, or should be complicated or as heavy as possible. A bands ability to construct truly listenable music is where their value lies as artists. T H V L L
@@johnx8796 You did just watch this performance right?? The breakdown, the atmospheric stuff, the ending....not heavy?? I headbanged myself a neck injury while listening to this
@@nennorkiporkos My point wasn't "Gojira isn't heavy, period." It was "In the world of death and tech death, Gojira isn't super heavy." It's all relative.
@@johnx8796 aah like that yeah! I was meh about magma when it came out, saw them on tour, they opened with only pain, from that point on I was sold. Especially live the songs are just so.....Gojira xD To me it feels like the logical evolution in their discography, especially with the things that happened around the album. Anyway looking forward to more music from them ^^
@@johnx8796 for me, most of the new death, tech death, etc. aren't heavy, they're just fast and complicated. prove me if i'm wrong, but that's my opinion
You guys are my idols. I dream to be like you guys. I have seen you 2 times and 1 time Christian gave me a thumbs up. I cried and it was my favorite moment of my life. I am a drummer and have Mario's same gear. I got a Mega Bell Ride because of him. This is one of my favorite songs and it makes me smile listening to it. Thank you for making my life what it is today
With you being a drummer, you picked the perfect band to idolize and try to emulate. In my opinion, Mario is the best drummer to ever do it. Practice your ass off and maybe someday we'll all be jamming to your band's tunes!
Christian is an absolute sweetheart! I got him sign a giant sheet of paper i brought to their performance just to get the band's autographs. He saw me waving with that and a big black marker at the end of the show and asked a safety steward if he could pass on the paper, then signed it. I yelled 'merci Christian' but then he just looked at me confused - probably didn't hear well what i screamed. Met them later twice during a signing session and they were all very humble and friendly.
I was in a bad mood before I listened to this and after I feel cleansed, happy and better. Music connects to you more than you think and holds more power that anything you can imagine. Very spiritual
EVer since I've heard this live version I can't go back to the studio version. This sounds so much more vibrant and alive. The studio version is still good, but sounds muffled in comparison. This version has a lot more range between the highest highs and lowest lows. Big props to the engineers on this but also to Gojira!
PRAY *Like the majority of the songs on the album, Pray is about the pain and sadness that both Joe and his brother Mario have gone through as a result of their mother’s passing. Pray is about the desperation one goes through when hoping for something worse to get better, whether it be bad weather, or a close loved one is unwell.* we pray, pray for the light to reign we call, we call the day we rise, pray for the wind to blow we know, we know the way *Their mother is sick during the writing process, and they are praying for her to get better, the light from day, and wind blowing are all symbols of life, its a metaphor for how they are hoping for and praying that their mother gets better.* no faith in your world create my own to thrive *There are multiple double entendres in these lines. Faith could mean religion, or it could mean trust. In the second line, is the protagonist creating a world or faith? And if it’s faith, which definition? Religion or trust? All of these could make sense given the overall theme on the album of dealing with the death of a loved one* no faith in your world create my own to thrive we pray, pray for the light to reign we call, we call the day *Their mother is sick during the writing process, and they are praying for her to get better, the light from day, and wind blowing are all symbols of life, its a metaphor for how they are hoping for and praying that their mother gets better.* no faith in your world create my own to thrive no faith in your world create my own to thrive go, go, go we rise, pray for the wind to blow we know, we know the way *Their mother is sick during the writing process, and they are praying for her to get better, the light from day, and wind blowing are all symbols of life, its a metaphor for how they are hoping for and praying that their mother gets better.*
I was there. In the 5th row. With all of my best old friends. It was truly amazing. And Gojira's first time playing at Red Rocks - they were absolutely thrilled to have played there - they took a bunch of selfies after their set with the crowd and amphitheater as the background.
The drummer is a machine,all of them are in a zen like state when performing on the stage,they as a whole keep on getting better,they always suprise me with their sound they put out.
There are other bands out there that are great, that are talented af But in terms of any genre of rock, Gojira has made their name to the top, for band tightness & showmanship in Live performances - no doubt a person never comes back the same attending their show. I mostly read surprisingly baffling comments and experiences people write about them & that's inspiring.
I remember they opened up for mastodon two years ago and half of the crowd didn’t know who gojira was. When the show was over everyone was talking about how gojira killed it. Mastodon is great but performance wise they couldn’t fuck with gojira
@@richardjarquin9498 this is exactly! what I hear.. They're so tight with their talent, especially the sound and goes without saying, the showmanship - these are killer attributes for a live show no doubt! 🤜🏼
This just oozes class,48 yr old brought up on priest,maiden etc then tallica started me on a lifelong journey of discovery in the 80s,these guys and meshuggah blowing my boat just now,no doubt there's more to come,stay real friends 🤘
Same here. 50myself. Weened on the same shit. I didn’t think anyone could come close To my current fav Meshuggah until these maniacs came on the scene. Fucking amazing band.
This song in particular... "Thoughts and prayers..." Followed by the hammer of the gun each and every time. This Opera Singer LOVES Gojira!!! Metal up your ass, baby!
This is my first time watching this and I'm here crying, moved to tears by the intense spiritual energy this performance conveys. Thank you so much Gojira for your incredible music. I hope I can see you live someday
This show was Magnificent!! Cold Front, Windy, Slight Rain. Full Moon. Triple Bill. Awesome Natural Red Rocks Sound! What a GREAT Band!! Vive La France
Mario is a god. I just wait for the drop and it's always epic. Every single track is a spiritual experience for me. It's mind bending how that kid can handle a drum kit the way he does. This band is the best of the best.
The energy and raw emotion that is emitted by Gojira is powerful and fierce. Their music, their live performances.. THEM! I am relatively new to them and their music, but I can honestly say no song, album, music genre or band has impacted my life more than Gojira has. From my perspective and philosophy on life to my own approach to writing music.. It’s something special that I hope everyone can experience at some point or another in their life.
I agree. Having grown up around the metal of the 80's, which was good stuff, but always with so many guitar notes involved, I find this style of metal where the guitar lines, not simple, but more minimalistically designed for effect (played perfectly by these guys, as well), enjoyable and more encouraging to me as far as picking up my guitar and playing for a bit. Let the drummer have to remember all the notes.
quand tu vois ça, l'ambiance qu'ils peuvent créer en live comme en studio, le niveau de précision, les détails mélodiques et rythmiques... tu te dis "c'est quand même quelque chose Gojira", très content.e de les connaître...
I honestly love the album version more even though it’s a shorter song. However,it’d still be really cool if they released this 9-10 minute version of the song as well. Whether it’s a live performance or a studio recorded version.
Just out of curiosity, do you prefer the album version because its shorter or do you just not like the extension? I think this version is just a crowd pleaser, something you listen to every once in a while but frequently listen to the album version.
@RazerUltor OptimusMaximus it’s a few different things. I honestly do love longer songs and it’s usually a nice bonus to me,but how they extended this song isn’t really something I love. I think they could’ve done something more fitting and developed the song further than what they did here. I also think the transitions in and out of the bridge could’ve been a little better too,but that’s just me. And if you want to go into how it fits in the album,I think the shorter version definitely fits better in that context. Some of this could be a bit nitpicky and I totally understand that,but that’s why I like the original/album version better.
having listened to this, (first) and then went to the studio version., IMO just doesn't compare. can't. this version ruined it for me, this one, IMO is just much better.
while not being the biggest of Gojira fans, I just cant comprehend how anyone can down-vote this video. Simply put - this is a great song. And damn, that soundboard audio track is epic!
He was so amazed watching this he wanted to watch it upside down once, that’s when he decided to like the video, but since he was upside down he thought the dislike button was the like button.
I miss this version of Gojira! The band that would jam on a riff for like 5 more minutes live! It's so cool that they saved something this special for Red Rocks

Something about this band and their songs feels purifying. Absolute bliss.

what a fucking song
Lo has descrito a la perfección.
They are so heavy yet none of their lyrics are satanic. They bring me the best vibes
That something is everything.

this is James from Death Magnetic era traveled in time to see Gojira in 2017:)
Lmao bruh😂
Hahahaha
I'm glad it wasn't just me. I searched to see if anyone else saw that.
Looks like Hetfield from 1999

Boaaa
Interessante
Uaaauu
True. They did the same with Where Dragons Dwell
The blood moon rising during The Shooting Star and this finishing off the set was amazing. One of the best shows I've ever been to.
Right! I was on hella acid when that happened, thought Gojira might have actually caused some cosmic shit lol

That ending is so explosive and mesmerizing, it nearly makes you want to cry…
This was the best outro ever!
The energy and raw emotion that is emitted by Gojira is powerful and fierce. Their music, their live performances.. THEM! I am relatively new to them and their music, but I can honestly say no song, album, music genre or band has impacted my life more than Gojira has. From my perspective and philosophy on life to my own approach to writing music.. It’s something special that I hope everyone can experience at some point or another in their life.
That live at Red Rocks shifted the plane of existence for Gojira !!! Stellar performance and production overall !!!
the outro of this song is so good it even make me tear up
Awesome song all around, the drumming really stands out and seems to be the driving force of this atmospheric groove engine.
I agree. Having grown up around the metal of the 80's, which was good stuff, but always with so many guitar notes involved, I find this style of metal where the guitar lines, not simple, but more minimalistically designed for effect (played perfectly by these guys, as well), enjoyable and more encouraging to me as far as picking up my guitar and playing for a bit. Let the drummer have to remember all the notes.
I think I could drive really far with this jam kicking in a loop although I'd probably get a speeding ticket.
quand tu vois ça, l'ambiance qu'ils peuvent créer en live comme en studio, le niveau de précision, les détails mélodiques et rythmiques... tu te dis "c'est quand même quelque chose Gojira", très content.e de les connaître...
This live version of this song, played at this venue, it's absolutely perfect. Beautiful track
Have always been addicted to the gigantic dynamics of Gojiraaa.....
IMAGES, PERFORMANCE ET SON INCROYABLES !
Insane how good they are. Magical peformance.
so grateful for this band.
I was at this show. Devin Townsend project (transcendence line up), Gojira & Opeth. To this day nothing can top this show for me!
The Trifecta! Would have been amazing to see!
I honestly love the album version more even though it’s a shorter song. However,it’d still be really cool if they released this 9-10 minute version of the song as well. Whether it’s a live performance or a studio recorded version.
Just out of curiosity, do you prefer the album version because its shorter or do you just not like the extension?
I think this version is just a crowd pleaser, something you listen to every once in a while but frequently listen to the album version.
@RazerUltor OptimusMaximus it’s a few different things. I honestly do love longer songs and it’s usually a nice bonus to me,but how they extended this song isn’t really something I love. I think they could’ve done something more fitting and developed the song further than what they did here. I also think the transitions in and out of the bridge could’ve been a little better too,but that’s just me. And if you want to go into how it fits in the album,I think the shorter version definitely fits better in that context. Some of this could be a bit nitpicky and I totally understand that,but that’s why I like the original/album version better.
This recorded audio is almost as good sounding as studio quality recordings
@Pedro Chinito I agree there. With Gojira it makes little to no difference whether it’s a studio recording or live recording.
having listened to this, (first) and then went to the studio version., IMO just doesn't compare. can't. this version ruined it for me, this one, IMO is just much better.
Impressionnant !!! Vive Gojira !!!!!
OH MY GAWD......This heavenly heavy sweet wall of sound
while not being the biggest of Gojira fans, I just cant comprehend how anyone can down-vote this video. Simply put - this is a great song. And damn, that soundboard audio track is epic!
god damn i need this version of the song NOW
Download it!
Un trance. No le había puesto mucha atención a la versión de estudio, esta me fascinó 🤯😘
Can the one person who's already disliked this masterpiece please explain themselves?
No... they can't... that's like asking an insect for it's thoughts on the hard problem of consciousness... it doesn't have any... :p
it was probably a mistake, like his birth
Might be outburst of rage because of previously uploaded and later deleted whole live at red rocks
He was so amazed watching this he wanted to watch it upside down once, that’s when he decided to like the video, but since he was upside down he thought the dislike button was the like button.
@@hovx5497 the only reasonable explanation.
This is one of the best live performances of all time, really incredible guys.
Fantastic sound
I miss this version of Gojira! The band that would jam on a riff for like 5 more minutes live! It's so cool that they saved something this special for Red Rocks
I’ll say it… that’s one of the greatest live performances of all time.
You and everyone else!
I was in attendance that magical night and goes down as one of my favorite concerts. I hope the band decides to release the whole show again
Jesus Christ that was amazing. You guys gotta come back to Hershey PA because I still have my tickets. Best band ever.
Greatest performance of all time
OMG!!!!! Literally tears in my eyes. Very emotional and the need for Gojira LIVE is tearing me apart. 😩😩😩
THE most amazing live performance. I cant understand why there are so few reactions to this performance on RUclips. Its a benchmark
Wow... my mind is blown. This is absolutely beautiful and magical sounding. It must have been an insane experience to hear live.
Never gets old🤘🏽
3:53 A Wild James Hetflied Appears! What do you want to do?!
1 - Prey?
2 - Seek & Destroy?
Gorjia are admitted big Metallica fans and a big influence on them they say
Bet he wishes he had a drummer like Mario in his band !!
how is this comment not #1
not Hetfield
@@ifonly2675 mario's playing would be overkill tbh
