@@SparksofHell absolutely, this live is, imo, simply hands down the best live performance ever, those that come really close after for me are opeth (at red rocks), the uprising live from Sabaton at woodstock and another one I can't remember just off the top of my head
They are form France, voc and drums are brothers, Mario is one of the best metal drummers ever. And Silvera is not even heavy comparing to their other stuff! You need to check more of them! :) Gojira is just awesome!
There’s only two bands that I instantly fell in love with and spiraled down into a rabbit hole with their discography...Jinjer and Gojira! I really hope you do more of them. Gojira is a French band that started in 1996 but like Jinjer, they’ve only started to now become super popular in the last four or five years. The lead singer and the drummer are brothers Joe and Mario Duplantier. The other guitarist and bassist are Christian and Jean Paul. Next check out Pray live at Red Rocks. My advice to you is to only react to live songs. This band is 1000% a live band!
THIS RIGHT HERE!!!!! I’m a very old school metalhead and these two bands have single handily restored my faith in heavy music!! I can’t believe it took me so long to discover Gojira but when I did.... man I can’t get enough!!!!
Agreed 1000% Gojira and Jinjer are so fucking special and I too fell head over heels into both immediately as well. 2018 PolAndRock Gojira live is a fucking masterpiece!
Bonne réaction vierge. They're still a band. They have been a band for decades. Two brothers in the band. The composers. The drummer Mario Duplantier, one of the best drummers in the world. And the guitarist singer Joseph Duplantier. One of the best live bands ever. Cool that you talked about Pantera. There are connections between them. Gojira is influenced by Morbid Angel, Sepultura, Metallica, Pantera, Jazz. Many bands. Gojira is a french band. Interesting Sean Penn comparison. The band was named Godzilla before. They changed the name for Gojira. (Gojira = Godzilla in japanese, surely why your young friend on twitch has this name) Definitely check them more. You should be amazed.
Looks like these guys have been around for a while. Formed in 1996. First album in 2001. Recording quite a bit in the 00's. Two albums in the last decade.
I've been a Gojira fan since 1999. They are so good! In the Wilderness, Toxic Garbage Island, Flying Whales are all amazing songs too. Love this band! Gojira, Meshuggah and Belphegor are my musical holy trinity check em out!
Gojira also played at Hellfest 2019 - I was there - lots of energy. Many guitarist like to play the riff from Silvera - many drummer try to like Mario - Please react to more Gojira! Fun fact about Hellfest: one of the biggest metal festivals in Europe and the first to exist in France. Festival is held in Clisson, a small town (population ca. 7000) and has a castle and imposing ruins, parts of which date from the thirteenth century.
Literally listen to every single Gojira song bc they are so unique and you can’t go wrong with watching them play live... they are one of the best live performances you could ever see.
This'll probably get lost in the sea of comments but you kept talking about arrangement and one song came to mind where they're all over the place, but it works! It's Different! Dog Fashion Disco LIVE Vertigo Motel - London, England 2014 (won't let me post with link, but youtube search for that and there should only be one video) This is the only decent quality live version I could find. When I saw them live the crowd had a secret clap for the chorus, which only made it better, it's missing here, but it's still great.
Ooohhhh buddy - you just opened a whole new can of awesome. Gojira don’t just have songs that you should listen to - they have a CATALOG that deserves your attention. Five bucks says once you do 2-3 songs off of “From Mars to Sirius” you’re going to do an album review. Yes, it is that damn good.
Amazonia is their newest song and they have a charity to go along with the vid. The way the Duplantier bros play together very very reminiscent of Pantera Abbot Bros and Van Halen Bros. You can only get that locked in with drummer and guitar after a lifetime of playing together. Love the channel and will come back for more!
Those latest songs are cool and easier to listen , but if you check the earlier stuff from them like the heaviest matter of the universe , remembrance , love ,the art of dying ,wisdom comes ,clone...stuff like that , it's more death metal ( and awesome ), and of course they are incredible live ,but yeah check out " the heaviest matter of the universe " one of their most famous song , you won't regret it .
Brother this band born on 1996,two brothers Duplantier half 🇨🇵 half 🇵🇹 create the band,the influences was Death,Mórbid Angel and a little of tribal sounds of sepultura,they like pantera was well,they enter on the vídeo of machine head asthetics of hate a tribute to dimebag.
Wow. To start with Silvera, and have no idea what madness lies is in front of you.. I’d pay for the experience again, to begin the exploration. Gojira is as good as it gets. Others have made strong recommendations for your next reaction.. the songs Gift of Guilt live at Brixton Academy, or the Art of Dying (studio version) will work. Then, keep diving. Also, I hear Pantera in their music now and then as well. These guys formed in 1996, so it would have been impossible not to be influenced by them.
Silvera is a decent starter song for this band. but I'm urging you to go deeper. There's lots of great suggestions below mine... my fave is "Backbone", the second track of "From Mars to Sirius" I never miss these guys whenever they come around to tour the US. They are absolutely a band that deserves every bit of legendary status that the world can give them.
This is one of my favorite bands. They have so many good songs. You can’t go wrong with them. I would agree with the suggestions for Stranded ... that song has a killer riff that sticks with you. 🤟🏻
WELCOME TO THE WONDERFUL WORLD OD GOJIRA...FORMED IN 1995 AND STILL GOING STRONG...DO. BACKBONE OR FLYING WHALES FROM THEIR 3RD ALBUM FROM MARS TO SERIOUOS....
"Pantera is no longer with us, they're never coming back". Maybe not the same Pantera as 20 years ago, but I just saw them less than 2 weeks ago. Happy I got to see them even if it's only half the original band.
Nice reaction! Gojira is our French pride 🤘🏻 If you love guitar tapping melodies, try BAND-MAID's instrumental "without holding back" 😁 There's a MV of the song in a famous Chinese video site but I don't want your reaction to be blocked on RUclips. Otherwise, you can react to the audio version but it's less fun
Where dragons dwell -Hellfest 2013 is amazing, tension building. Also brixton academy live anything. From a fellow OSN getting the metal vibe back with his kids !
Great reaction! They have much heavier songs than this. One of my favorites songs is “Backbone.” But if you want heavy and brutal, I recommend “ Rememberance”, from The Link Alive. It’ll blow your socks off, especially the outro.
Dude I was the same, stuck n my good old metal and all new bands did not appeal to me. They all sound alike, trying too hard, doing nothing new, bad singers etc. That was until I was confronted with a band called Gojira. They blew me out of my comfortzone and got me excited about new music for the first time in decades. Their foundations lie in bands like Metallica, Pantera and Sepultura but they dont sound anything like them. Its a band where the leadsinger also plays rhythm guitar and their riffs are just so fucking metal. So fresh, heavy and hard hitting. Lyrics with depth and a message and great albums full of progress. They are the next evolution in heavy metal dragging it into the modern age. Recently Ive also discovered a band called Jinjer which does about the same for me as Gojira. They are blowing me away with their musicality and their own distinct sound with deep heartfelt lyrics. Give them both a change and you wont be disappointed. Good entry songs for Gojira are Stranded, Flying Whales, Lénfant Sauvage, Only Pain, Magma or Silvera. Good entry songs for Jinjer are Pisces, Teacher Teacher, Outlander, Perennial and Who is gonna be the one. Enjoy mate
Joe is just constantly fkn pissed off on stage. Rightfully so, and perfectly warranted given their lyrical content on most songs - especially this one.
Joe (the singer) doesn't punch journalists but perhaps politicians. Gojira tries to open the eyes from people to see all the atrocity humanity does. They are good guys, the look goes with the Death Metal part. 😃
If you think that this "softer" and more "normal" of their songs sounds like Pantera, I'm really curious to hear what you have to say about the "real" Gojira songs. : )
Off topic. Falling in Reverse just released a “Revamped” version of their song I’m Not A Vampire. The OG song was off the same album as The Drug In Me Is You. It’s incredible. It won’t let me post the link in my comment 🤷🏻♀️
Pantera at their best still aren't on Gojira's level, and I have been in the metal scene since before Pantera was a thing. 80s thrash. Vinnie Paul could never play on Mario's level. Never ever. Dime was the entire talent pool of Pantera

The gift of Guilt live at Brixton Academy
AHhhh a man of Taste :D
This is the one for sure!
Gojira - Flying Whales live at the Brixton Academy blew my mind... (my introduction to them was Stranded which is just as amazing)
The Gift of Guilt from Brixton as well

Where Dragons Dwell - Live at Hellfest 2013. The last 4.5 minutes are legendary, drum-wise.
It's not often we get to say "the last 4.5 minutes are...".
That hellfest video is my favourite live performance on YT from anyone! It's nuts!
@@scottmorey6212 It really is ridiculous
last time i was this early, my wife was disappointed
They are form France, voc and drums are brothers, Mario is one of the best metal drummers ever. And Silvera is not even heavy comparing to their other stuff! You need to check more of them! :) Gojira is just awesome!
Gojira is life. Regards from México 🇲🇽
Listen yo Flying Whales
So glad you finally got around to this band!! Hope to see more reactions to them from you. Loved the reaction!
More to come!
Great reaction, please check out their song 'stranded'.
Oroborus, art of dying, rememberance, love, space time, where dragons dwell, wisdom comes, heaviest matter of the universe, gift of guilt, clone
Yes, I second this comment, great list to ease on in!

Best band today... No matter what genre...
Joe Duplantier is honestly one of the angriest looking dudes to hit the stage... It's also matched by how hyper Jean Michel (the bassist) is
But he's actually a very sweet guy
@@realdocloco Also, Christian Andreu is one of the most blissful looking dudes to hit the stage, so it kinda balances out.
Gojira - The Gift of Guilt (live at Brixton Academy)

These guys rock! Dude, pissed off Sean Penn circa late 80's and 90's - what has been seen cannot be unseen LOL You are so right!

Yeah these guys have a knack for coming up with some amazing heavy riffs.

Yes, it IS that damn good. Seconded. Thank you, France!
Your opening a can of worms with gojira. They are amazing people and musicians
Dude I am so excited that you’ve found the best modern metal band on earth. Try Pray from their Red Rocks show.
Amazonia is their newest song and they have a charity to go along with the vid. The way the Duplantier bros play together very very reminiscent of Pantera Abbot Bros and Van Halen Bros.

Silvera is the tip of the iceberg

Some years ago, they brought me back to metal (I've been playing in metal bands in my youth then lost interest).
the best metal band actually
Gojira - Pray live at Red Rocks
You probably gonna love it and won’t forget their performance...
All concert at Red Rocks is awesome btw ...
One of the biggest bands from the moment with 10 times worlds best drummer
i heard silvera back in 2018 and gojira was not all that back then, now i have 71 liked songs on spotify and they are my favorite band :)
Silvera is a decent starter song for this band. but I'm urging you to go deeper. There's lots of great suggestions below mine... my fave is "Backbone", the second track of "From Mars to Sirius"

You will love Parkway Drive- In Waves.
Similar sound but vastly different and unique at the same time. Its wow worthy
Pray - At Red Rocks
The art of dying. That's all I've wanted to say
They actually released a new song today

Destrage - symphony of the ego. an italian metal band that is GREAT
This french guys rullz !
A really pissed off Sean Penn 😂 Welp! Can't unsee that one now!
FLYING WHALES BY GOJIRA
(i'm shouting just in case ya didn't hear me)
Wait u haven’t listened to more gojira ?heaviest matter on the universe live now !
Dude check out The Gift of Guilt!
Explosia by Gojira
Mario might be the best metal drummer in the world atm
Gojira - Yama's Messengers
ok Burt Kreischer...yes I can see similarities, but the most striking is the tightness and commitment to perfection between Gojira and Pantera.
When you were talking about a really pissed off Sean Penn, I was thinking more of Charles Manson!
L'enfant Sauvage is a good place to go from here.
You have to check the Art of Dying by Gojira dude ;)
You have a lot to catch up on w/ these lunatics
Pray from Red Rocks next!
Pantera 4 ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!
check out ... the art of dying ... heaviest matter in the universe ... l'enfant sauvage ... the gift of guilt ... and flying whales
If you think that this "softer" and more "normal" of their songs sounds like Pantera, I'm really curious to hear what you have to say about the "real" Gojira songs. : )
Br por ai?
Personal favorite from them is Clone (live)
Maybe time for Amon Amarth
Hahhahahaha PIST off Shan Penn 🤣🤣 i died 🤣🤣
don’t take a look at the last one from gojira « born for one thing » you’ll blow your mind out
I did Born for one thing it was global blocked it is on my patreon...
You can tell they were influenced by Pantera. That's a good call right there.
Hahaha!! "20 years ago when these young men were kids"! Gojira formed in 1996 man, and they weren't "kids" at the time.
ahhh yess.. whale metal
stop pause when listening Gojira !!!
Lol "The metal community 'as it develops'", you mean "the world as it catches up to the metal community".
can you react to Rodrigo y Gabriela - "Tamacun" or "Orion" from Metallica. Or "stairway to heaven" from Led Zeppelin?????
Or Diablo rojo!
You talked more about Pantera than Gojira...
Off topic. Falling in Reverse just released a “Revamped” version of their song I’m Not A Vampire. The OG song was off the same album as The Drug In Me Is You. It’s incredible. It won’t let me post the link in my comment 🤷🏻♀️
AS SOON AS MY DAUGHTER MAEGN GETS HERE!!!! I DONT DO FALLING IN REVERSE WITHOUT HER LOL
@@OldSkuleNerd The only good reason to wait!! Looking forward to it!🖤
Dude you talked more about Pantera then you did Gojira. I mean I get you were comparing. But, c'mon.
no Pantera at all. 100% GOJIRA
