8:40 Thats a specific type of pick scrape, they do that by turning the pick sideways and scrapping all the strings while sliding left hand down the neck on muted strings at the same time. Its so distinctive for them that its often called "Gojira pick scrape"
Joe mentions that the left hand is like a "visual effect;" Sliding the left hand down the neck isn't necessary whatsoever, he just feels like doing it.
@@superkarifragilistic If he says so then its probably true, he is a master of this kind of scrapes, nobody does it so well and consistant as him. Im just a drummer so Im not gonna argue about that lmao
So thats your first time hearing singer screaming "whales", in Toxic Garbage Island you can find another verse Im 100% sure youve never heard screamed by a singer. Great song as well, no spoilers, Gojira fans obviously will know what Im talking about lmao
Gojira is a masterclass in riffs, intelligent lyrics and drumming in another level. I can’t say enough about how much I love this band. I hope you keep listening to them beyond these reaction videos. Although they’ve tamed a bit in their last couple of albums they are still writing amazing music and are leading the charge of metal into the 2020s.
you should check out mario duplantier 's pdcast on craig ( forgot the name ) a drummer , you should find it easily on you tube , he talks about why and how their music evolved
Future classic. Truly a Mastercraft of metal and a solid mix of trippy effects and pacing. The outro is wild. The signature sound you mention is the ever famous Gojira "Pick Scrape". It is 100% done perfectly even live on the songs!
Lyrically the song is about Astral Projection/Travel. Some of what he saw after leaving his body. The song Heaviest Matter of the Universe is about the sleep paralysis he experienced when trying to get out of his body into the astral realm. Sounds wild, but as someone who also can Astral Travel.... Spot on.. the experience itself is wild, lol.
It’s a part of the Gojira starter pack. Whether you feel Stranded on Toxic Garbage Island with a guy named Silvera from Amazonia or you have The Gift of Guilt and want to practice The Art of Dying. You have to pause to experience Flying Whales on your journey.
I know you are a reaction channel but once you are almost done with all the From Mars to Sirius thing from Gojira I recommend you to listen to the whole album in order. As the entire album tells a story of survival, overcoming and a strong environmental message!
Great song! Gojira rocks! Honestly, because there's such a huge difference in the song before and after the drop, I honestly couldn't recall at the start of this video if this song actually had lyrics! Even though I've heard it at least a dozen times! xD

Excellent reaction. Adoration For None (with Randy Blythe) is a super heavy track

Earlier Gojira is Morbid Angel worship.
Especially their The Link album.
But FMTS is a special album.
