A Gojira song not many people mention, yet is beautiful, is 'Low Lands'. It's quite a calm song, compared to the rest of their work, but it has a vibe to it, with Joe (the singer) doing some clear vocals. I'm sure you'd enjoy this song. And I'd love to hear your opinion about it.
This song is haunting. It was written during a time when Joe and Mario lost their mother which comes through clearly in the lyrics... such as Tell me what you see In the afterlife Par-delà le ciel (beyond the sky) Par-delà le soleil (beyond the sun)
Same! This was my first gojira song and Born in Winter was my second, then I just fell into their entire discography (at the time) and fell in love. My favorite band to this day
I’m 55 years old and have been a metal head since I was about 7 or 8. I have heard many great drummers in my life. I think Mario is the greatest. He plays as if he has four arms and four legs. Absolutely incredible!
I remember my first time on a plane (2nd time actually cuz we were going home). I was listening to goijra on my sony bluetooth earbuds. Literally the moment we were going from ground to sky, the rising part, I heard this part of the song. While having the view of Austria below me hehe. The sky is all over me. And I was like, holy shit. I didn't plan that. Was amazing.
This song, for me, is one of the greatest vocal performances of out time. The power and angst stand out without much in the way of added effects. The anger that leads to the breathlessness is pure and raw. It's performances like this that make me love music so much.
Hell yeah! I first discovered them when they were playing with Rammstein in Quebec City in 2015 or 16 I think and I immediately fell in love with them. So much energy it was crazy
As someone who has seen Pantera live (and count my lucky stars) Gojira is the only band who rivals their energy live. The ability to turn a crowd into absolute monsters
The anxiety in Joe's voice is what makes this song for me. The riff and composition of the song is so simple but the expression in the vocals are to die for. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The breathlessness and angst in his voice just elevate this song to another level and as a guitar player I rarely give a shout out to the singer!
I know you’re breaking down songs musically, but Gojira goes up a couple levels when you break them down lyrically. Just beautiful, passionate, relevant, and sometimes transcendent stuff.
No it is not :D His pronounciation was quite accurate (on the first try, not the second one), almost perfect if he would have dropped the "t" at the end of "l'enfant"
Gojira is always a favorite to me. Got hooked on them when listening to _Magma_ on iTunes, and picked up albums going backwards in their catalog! _From Mars to Sirius_ is def one of the best metal albums to me, thanks for getting back to Gojira, Geebz!
@@NotQuietRight Eh, everyone has their opinions, but from someone who had only heard of Gojira as a big name in the last ten+ years, Shooting Star had a unique sound to it. I had heard a little bit of their guitar riff work, and of Mario's drum skills, so The Cell and Low Lands stuck out to me, too. Yeah, after following them for the last 2 years now, I def feel that they shift from album to album, but overall, _From Mars to Sirius_ has the best sound to me. Some might say _Magma_ doesn't hold true to how Gojira used to be, but bands change all the time, and I still enjoy the sound of that album, too.
@@NotQuietRight I'm the same. Magma was my first time hearing of them and i think it's a fantastic album. Went back to their older stuff after and now i love most of all of it. It's still a great album to me. Just different.
@@zachserum1988 like the others have said, tastes differ. I've listened to magma a few times. not missing out on anything, in my own opinion. they do nothing special on the album and some songs are very formulaic and repetitive. just not for me.
One of their best. And one of those that hits you musically at first, but then you start picking up lyrics and it just takes it to an entirely new level of emotion.
This was the song that did it to me .... made me a Gojira fan forever. So powerful, brutal and beautiful! L'enfant Savage translates roughly to wild child and is a famous film by French director François Truffaut
Always love seeing Gojira on this channel! I would love to see you do a super special 3-track-reaction to The Art of Dying, Esoteric Surgery and Vacuity in one sitting (without breaking in between the tracks to preserve the transitions!).
The riff accompanied by the drumming in this with those ghost notes is just musical perfection... so easy on the ears.. and then the blast beats at the breakdown... yeahh
LOOOOL, you stopping at 06:08 "Wauw, what a great change-up in the riff and the playing there", mere seconds before one of the biggest drops known to mankind, hahaha 08:18 Thanks for the reaction, insightful as ever! :) Oh, and I'm still here ;)
yes, his vocals are not yelling, screaming, cookie monster..they are loud, powerful with a tonal centre. This song is one of my 3 favorite Gojira songs and is the title track of their best work, imnsho
I always describe Gojira and Machine Head singing as more of a 'yell' than a 'scream'. Obviously there's plenty of variance with both artists but just that extra bit of tone that comes through in the vocals is a big part of why I love these guys.
One of my favorite and most cathartic memories is running in a forest park in chico to this song on mushrooms, started off standing on one leg on a tall tree stump to Explosia (the previous song) and when L'Enfant Sauvage kicked in I jumped off and booked it
@@nathangreen5097 Alcest would be cool since Neige hasn't messed with KPN in a long time. Hopefully Geebz doesn't mess too much with BM because there's way too many sketchy and racist bands.
Sweet breakdown and dissection as always, Mr Geebz. Love me some Gojira, one of my fave songs of theirs. Would still love to see your take on the band Veil of Maya, my cousin Lukas is the vocalist. Good songs to do might be Outsider or Mikasa. Cheers!
@@SilviaAfurisita He really is! So proud of how far he's gotten in his career. He's always been a super cool dude, and so much raw talent. The whole family is proud! Somewhat surprised Geebz hasn't gotten to VoM yet. Soon, hopefully!
This song is a brilliant example of why ghost notes should be used whenever they fit. It adds a beautiful undertone to what people hear and most listeners don't even notice it.
I just saw these guys a couple weeks ago - man, what a show. Their live sound is impeccable and the light show is amazing. Very similar feel to seeing Meshuggah live.
Amazing band! Another Metal band from France that I strongly recommend is Alcest, and the song "Percées de Lumière", they blend subgenres like Atmospheric Black Metal, Shoegaze, Dream Pop and Post-Rock.
I appriciate your channel man. I came for Tool, discovered Gojira through you and they are fantastic. Born in Winter has become one of my all time favorite songs to play on guitar. congrats on the 200k btw ❤
Anything by these guys. But last night at work I was listening to some Vektor and I had to listen to Cosmic Cortex like 3 times in a row it was hitting so damn good. Recharging the Void is amazing too.
The bass drop in this is so subtle and so simple it's epic. I miss having subs in my car. And if you come back to them, Esoteric Surgery is a beast too.
This song was absolutely one of the highlights of the show last week in Oklahoma City. They play insanely tight live. Definitely gonna make sure to see them anytime they’re in the US
This is my favorite Gojira album, if I had to choose one😅. They always surprise me and maintain their sound. It's what makes them a go to for me. A constant.
Hey, Geebz. Since you've gotten into Gojira and Meshugga, I think you might find 'Brännmärkt' off of Vildhjarta's new album 'Måsstaden Under Vatten' very interesting! Congratulations on the upcoming 1 year anniversary, and 200k. AWRIGHT!
Congratulations on 200k subs & your one year anniversary, Geebz! I'm still here because you make your channel Fantastic..Thank You! Gojira are bad to the bone, drums are insane. I love all the heavy, sort of industrial-metal sounds and nuances from the drums..and everything else about this band! Awwright! Good stuff, man..Thank You!
Couple of suggestions I'd love to see you dissect. I've not seen you do cover songs before, but there's two Tool covers I find amazing and would love you to choose either one: Brass Against - The Pot Beard of Harmony - Right in Two First is an American brass band with a female vocalist, second is an Indian band with a live recording from a rooftop in Bangalore. Both are great covers for different reasons.
I have almost watched every Video from you now (you're great!) and you really got to do some 'The Dillinger Escape Plan' with "Mona Lisa" or "Sunshine the Werewolf" and also Architects, favorably "Memento Mori", which is an impressive piece of art about their passed band member, friend and brother, Tom Searle. Buckle up, you gonna love both bands and their stuff. (Seen you already have one song of both bands ;)
The Gojira song I've most looked forward to you doing, as it's the one that got me into the band to begin with. That transition at the 26-ish second mark into the song and the riff they repeat for most of the track really grabbed me; it puts me into a trance almost every time I come across it. I know you're doing all these re-reactions to artists you've visited before but I wouldn't be doing my self diligence if I didnt bring up Sylosis yet again! Tracks like Mercy and Leech really give off a similar vibe to what Gojira does in how they do these build-ups to the different breaks in the song
I've always thought Gojira was the perfect execution of that "vocals as an instrument" thing Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure the screaming/yells are usually referred to as harsh vocals, and/or harshness as a quality. So having a note as the backing, and putting some heat, or harshness on top of it, is what gives you those pitched yells. Or in the case of where the pitch is less recognizable, it's usually on the lower or higher end of the vocalist's range, with the heat turned all the way up. Maybe this will make it easier to talk about, i dunno.
HEY GEEBZ GREAT PIC MAN...YES U PRONOUNCED IT RIGHT...IT MEANS LITTLE SAVAGES IN FRENCH AND JOE THE SINGER SAID ITS LOOSLY BASED ON HIM AND MARIO'S LIFE GROWING UP...I REQUESTED BACKBONE AND WORLD TO COME ON ANOTHER GOJIRA VID...PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST
Speaking of Behemoth and Gojira, I saw them together at Knotfest a couple of years ago before the world went crazy. I've been a Behemoth fan since the early 2000's. Another legendary Polish band is Vader, although I don't know if Geebz would review that kind of metal. All the best from the USA.
@@krata420 Yes, both of those bands are incredibly good. I should have mentioned them. Another good band from Poland is Kriegsmaschine, which features the members of Mgla.
Gojira always demands for so much energy from their listeners, the moment i hear those sick riffs my head automatically begins to move 🤘🤘🤘 Check out transcendence by gorod, they're french metal too
This song is so dope! Heavy and etherial at the same time, has this trademark Gojira vibe to it thanks to the drumming and Joe's voice. The groove is amazing! The way you are moving your head during the break says it all :) Congrats on 200k! I have not really understood how to recommend songs for this 30 days countdown. Should we comment under the videos you have already made for a given artist, shouldn't we?
Great reaction, thanks (from France) ...It can be spelled in English "lanphan sovaj" , btw...Congrats on 200 K, Geez ! 👍Suggestion of the day : SKEPTICISM "Calla" (studio)
Great song choice! I know youve done a lot of gojira already but i havent seen you react to the heaviest matter in the universe so thats what il recommend next. Have a great day and thanks as always for the quality content!
Another awesome thing about Gojira is they don't cuss or use negative energy in their music. Positivity, Life, Love and experience. Gojira is the pinnacle of music and they are an amazing example of what humanity should strive for. Truly amazing people.
Nice "quoi"! Nice review too! To help you pronounce "L'enfant sauvage" (the wild child), think of the "an" in antique but keep the "n" as short as possible: l'an-fan (and you got the sauvage quite good, except where you've written it ;) !)
Mario is the drummer. And yeah, he's a genius. Everything that he does is absolute madness.
Luigi is the guitarist
@@uncommonrare you, you won the internet today. Saw them live last weekend. Phenomenal!!
A Gojira song not many people mention, yet is beautiful, is 'Low Lands'. It's quite a calm song, compared to the rest of their work, but it has a vibe to it, with Joe (the singer) doing some clear vocals. I'm sure you'd enjoy this song. And I'd love to hear your opinion about it.
Underrated track.
This song is haunting. It was written during a time when Joe and Mario lost their mother which comes through clearly in the lyrics... such as
Tell me what you see
In the afterlife
Par-delà le ciel (beyond the sky)
Par-delà le soleil (beyond the sun)
One of my favorite Gojira tracks
best track of them in my opinion
The one I need to be played on my funeral. Low Lands has such a dark and beautiful energy about it
I was addicted to this song for months. I haven't fully recovered thankfully.
Shit I've been addicted for years 😂
I've been addicted for years to this band
Still addicted, I have wet dreams about that filthy drop
Gojira has so much good shit, this one is a good choice.
The bass guitar @8:18 will forever be my favorite part. I swear the entire song is just a build up for it and its so worth it!
This song and Born in Winter were what hooked me on Gojira.
Completely.
Instant album buy.
Gateway drug
Same here \m/
Gift Of Guilt slays me
Same! This was my first gojira song and Born in Winter was my second, then I just fell into their entire discography (at the time) and fell in love. My favorite band to this day
Ocean planet and from the sky for me ♥️
IMHO Mario Duplantier is one of the most dynamic, precise, and exciting drummers out there today.
His fill at the end of this song is so under appreciated, he's awesome.
I’m 55 years old and have been a metal head since I was about 7 or 8. I have heard many great drummers in my life. I think Mario is the greatest. He plays as if he has four arms and four legs. Absolutely incredible!
Joe Duplantier's pitch screaming is one of the things that's always drawn me to Gojira. So much raw power in his vocals.
no one can do what he does
I'm excited for this. This is one of the most beautiful metal songs ever written.
Absolutely
IM A DRUMMER AND IT TOOK ME 2 1/2 MONTHS TO LEARN THIS SONG...THOSE GHOST NOTES TOOK MR A SOLID MONTH TO GET THEM DOWN...
Wow
Good stuff
"The sky is all over me"
One of the best moments in metal.
Yes, yes it is.
I also love the follow up lyric.. “I run on time”, which has multiple beautiful meanings.
Gives me goosebumps everytime
I remember my first time on a plane (2nd time actually cuz we were going home). I was listening to goijra on my sony bluetooth earbuds. Literally the moment we were going from ground to sky, the rising part, I heard this part of the song. While having the view of Austria below me hehe. The sky is all over me. And I was like, holy shit. I didn't plan that. Was amazing.
The two seconds with a beat of silence that precedes it always takes my breath away.
This song, for me, is one of the greatest vocal performances of out time. The power and angst stand out without much in the way of added effects. The anger that leads to the breathlessness is pure and raw. It's performances like this that make me love music so much.
our time. Autocorrect doesn't correct for wine induce spelling errors ;)
PSA to anyone who's interested: definitely go see Gojira live if you can, I've gone to three of their shows and they're just fantastic in person.
Hell yeah! I first discovered them when they were playing with Rammstein in Quebec City in 2015 or 16 I think and I immediately fell in love with them. So much energy it was crazy
I bought a ticket, yesterday, to see them in Cardiff, next year. So fucking pumped!!!
As someone who has seen Pantera live (and count my lucky stars) Gojira is the only band who rivals their energy live. The ability to turn a crowd into absolute monsters
I SAW THEM IN 2008..2016...AND THEN AGAIN THIS LAST AUGUST AND THEY HAVE THE BEST STAGE SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN....GREAT LIVE BAND
I'm seeing them in exactly one week! :D
The anxiety in Joe's voice is what makes this song for me. The riff and composition of the song is so simple but the expression in the vocals are to die for. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The breathlessness and angst in his voice just elevate this song to another level and as a guitar player I rarely give a shout out to the singer!
I know you’re breaking down songs musically, but Gojira goes up a couple levels when you break them down lyrically. Just beautiful, passionate, relevant, and sometimes transcendent stuff.
One of the best songs ever made. Can also recommend Gojira - The Gift of Guilt.
Congrats on 200k!
No it is not :D
His pronounciation was quite accurate (on the first try, not the second one), almost perfect if he would have dropped the "t" at the end of "l'enfant"
@@scosstard3542 what are you on about. His pronunciation of L'enfant was not accurate. Monkeyfarm is closer.
Also wow, I used to watch your Minecraft mob farm videos back in 2012. Funny seeing you here.
There's no way to write it in English really. You guys don't have that 'an' sound I think
@@TanguyBlanchard some say some French loanwords with that sound (and sound a bit snobbish for the others probably). Like, croissant or something
Gojira is always a favorite to me. Got hooked on them when listening to _Magma_ on iTunes, and picked up albums going backwards in their catalog!
_From Mars to Sirius_ is def one of the best metal albums to me, thanks for getting back to Gojira, Geebz!
I'm surprised you got hooked on easily their worst work. I love gojira but actively avoid any song from that album.
@@NotQuietRight Eh, everyone has their opinions, but from someone who had only heard of Gojira as a big name in the last ten+ years, Shooting Star had a unique sound to it.

Gojira - Elefant Sausage. I don't know, I just keep seeing it like that :D
Been listening to this song for almost a decade and I've NEVER Heard or seen it said or written like this😂👌🏼
I always describe Gojira and Machine Head singing as more of a 'yell' than a 'scream'. Obviously there's plenty of variance with both artists but just that extra bit of tone that comes through in the vocals is a big part of why I love these guys.
It's screaming on a pitch. And it blew my fucking mind.
Rob Flynn tends to end up over doing his vocals and he becomes hard to listen too on certain songs where i find i can listen to Gojira all day.
@@Audard Yeah, I forgot to write my comment was directed towards Joe, not Rob. I agree completely. Joe is on a different level.

The bass drop in this is so subtle and so simple it's epic. I miss having subs in my car. And if you come back to them, Esoteric Surgery is a beast too.
Wild Child. This may be my favorite Gojira song. I tend think of Joe's vocals as tribal shouting. Great job Geebz.

This song was absolutely one of the highlights of the show last week in Oklahoma City. They play insanely tight live. Definitely gonna make sure to see them anytime they’re in the US

The best album of that decade
Couple of suggestions I'd love to see you dissect.
I've not seen you do cover songs before, but there's two Tool covers I find amazing and would love you to choose either one:
Brass Against - The Pot
Beard of Harmony - Right in Two
First is an American brass band with a female vocalist, second is an Indian band with a live recording from a rooftop in Bangalore. Both are great covers for different reasons.
How hard is it to grow a family of viewers on RUclips this big in one year. Amazing.
Gojira - Clone, one of my favorite older tracks of theirs!
Just saw these guys live in SLC, they are amazing. This song was my favorite song they did
I have almost watched every Video from you now (you're great!) and you really got to do some 'The Dillinger Escape Plan' with "Mona Lisa" or "Sunshine the Werewolf" and also Architects, favorably "Memento Mori", which is an impressive piece of art about their passed band member, friend and brother, Tom Searle.

Have you listened to The Mars Volta? Please review Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt
I've always thought Gojira was the perfect execution of that "vocals as an instrument" thing
Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure the screaming/yells are usually referred to as harsh vocals, and/or harshness as a quality. So having a note as the backing, and putting some heat, or harshness on top of it, is what gives you those pitched yells. Or in the case of where the pitch is less recognizable, it's usually on the lower or higher end of the vocalist's range, with the heat turned all the way up. Maybe this will make it easier to talk about, i dunno.
He sounds so raw and anguished at the second verse near the beginning then it turns to rage. It doesn't feel like a performance, it feels real
Glad to see you keep doing these!
HEY GEEBZ GREAT PIC MAN...YES U PRONOUNCED IT RIGHT...IT MEANS LITTLE SAVAGES IN FRENCH AND JOE THE SINGER SAID ITS LOOSLY BASED ON HIM AND MARIO'S LIFE GROWING UP...I REQUESTED BACKBONE AND WORLD TO COME ON ANOTHER GOJIRA VID...PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST

Great reaction, thanks (from France) ...It can be spelled in English "lanphan sovaj" , btw...Congrats on 200 K, Geez ! 👍Suggestion of the day : SKEPTICISM "Calla" (studio)
Great song choice! I know youve done a lot of gojira already but i havent seen you react to the heaviest matter in the universe so thats what il recommend next. Have a great day and thanks as always for the quality content!
Congrats on the 200k you deserve it!
Another awesome thing about Gojira is they don't cuss or use negative energy in their music. Positivity, Life, Love and experience. Gojira is the pinnacle of music and they are an amazing example of what humanity should strive for. Truly amazing people.
One of my fav heavy duty medicine as well. Great dissection Geebz. Loved it!
Nice "quoi"! Nice review too!
To help you pronounce "L'enfant sauvage" (the wild child), think of the "an" in antique but keep the "n" as short as possible: l'an-fan (and you got the sauvage quite good, except where you've written it ;) !)
Thank you for everything you do Geebz, 200k well deserved
Mario is a master of the craft. He is the reason I got hooked on Gojira 12 years ago or so. And watching him do his thing Live was amazing.
awesome!!! Gojira is one of my favs!!!
Pretty sure this was the very first Gojira track I ever heard. And it really embodies the era it was created.
This is just the start, trust me! A reaction to remembrance Live at The Link Alive concert would be epic.
Some good old Gojira!
One of the greatest high energetic emotional songs!!! Gojira is everything the world needs to look forward to in todays times!!!
2:05 His reaction to bass is my favorite part of this video
One of my 20 favorite gojira songs 🤟
That entire album is easily my favorite offering from Gojira.
Without a doubt, my favorite from them. No contest.
