What does this song mean to you?

Shin pain from trying to keep up with that double pedal.
I'd sum it up as 'ultimately nothing means anything, and it doesn't mean anything that it doesn't mean anything'.
To me it is about learning to let go of your attachment to all things as you approach death, so you can go peacefully into the void without unfinished business. Mastering the art of dying.
It was this song that made me fall in love with Gojira. Contemporary Progressive Death Metal? C'mon, this is the bomb!
Its about learning how to live your life in a way that you're OK with dying when the time comes.
You're always dying. You're dying right now. The "art" of dying is actually learning how to live.
I love seeing professional musicians being so confused with the time signatures 😂
I recommended a spiritbox song on Patreon with one insanely strange time signature, something to look forwards to :)
@@Hinjima92what's the song
The fact that Judson liked the line about the light tells me he probably will like lyrics from The Heaviest Matter of the Universe :)
paranoid android and gojira,oh yes!
I've always interpreted this song as more of an ego death than a physical. That being said it fits the premise of a physical death very well too. The concept of leaving life without baggage has a freedom to it of letting go of the material and traveling light or the molecular degrading of our physical form as well as the mental freedom of guilt remorse regret etc.
Judson and Richard both make the point that it parallels both aspects depending on interpretation via present state and comments that it's what makes a song great. 100%.
When you make music you may have intent but you have no control of that once you present it to the world. Gojira manages to find that juxtaposition of intent and interpretation without missing no matter the route.
same, thats also how I viewed it, but we have a two-fold death... one psychological, metaphysical death that while "living" materialitically has maybe happend psychologically to the soul by the mundane live fed by tv and so on) and the real one as in the perishing of the vessel for the soul.
I think him saying "Art of dying is the way to let all go Within I practice in the secret of my soul" drives home exactly what you said. It's a metaphorical thing that lets you not take life seriously, to travel lighter without the weight of burden and the desire for material possessions because you know that there's something greater beyond that which is the sanctity of mind. Ironically, this realization allows you to enjoy it all more while you're here.
I thought it was about their Mum, lying in a hospital bed with no hope of recovery.
@@drareolaeggboy That tickles the brain like I heard an interview about that or something. Idk.
@@drareolaeggboy that was 8 years after this album was recorded
L'enfant sauvage, the heaviest matter in the universe, born in winter
so amazing
every gojira song is good
Listening to the Art of Dying live was surely one of the highlights of my life, never felt this kind of power and energy. Especially when the intro ended and the riff kicked in and also when the middle part started with the huge accents and then quick double bass. Their live shows truly are out of body experience
I love how Judson's interpretation is basically on pair with Joe's thought behind the lyrics. The art of dying is the way of letting the material world go to focus on a deeper meaning of life and death and ultimately the importance of becoming the better version of ourselves as the main objective. Those three sections represent the protagonist realizing this - 1st very heavy part, the person speaking feels inprisoned by the material world, disconnected from reality, not able to experience the true feelings and emotions, the 2nd fast part is protagonist realizing the issue, fighting inside himself and finally releasing himself from that cage and being able to travel light (100% Joe meant light as an actual speed of light, not "without the weight", its very much on pair with other lyrics on this album), then the 3rd part with groovy repeated riff is I believe representation of protagonist being finally at peace with himself as he now understands the "art of dying" and the true meaning of life and death. The heaviest matter of the universe is an another lyrical gem in their discography beautifully describing love as the strongest and most powerful force in the universe, recommend checking it
great summary
To "travel light" you cannot have mass. That's why you can't take your possessions. Light has no mass.
Yes! People REALLY think that can’t “live” without material things but in the end, those things fade away and you can’t take them in the grave.
Noice
This is also one of my favourite songs of all time, off my favourite gojira album. Just something about the brutality of everything, but theres still harmonic and melodic elements everywhere, with a groove that grabs you and throws you at the same time. My interpretation comes mostly from the "i will bring no material in the afterlife" line, in that those things and trinkets that we have are worthless in the grand scheme, compared to how valuable life(and death) is. Gives you an appreciation for the fact that youre here, and that sometime you will not be, and that you have to accept that.
i only just got into Gojira. I'm not really a fan of harsh vocals, and most blast beat drumming just sucks. The moment i heard this track, was eye-opening. No one is like Gojira.
"From the Sky" is a lyrical masterpiece
ayyy
It is. We all know how great musicians and songwriters they are, but man, since I dug down into their lyrics I realized that they are on part with Death as my favorite lyrics in metal. Joe is such a lyrical genius, truly a clever and wise guy. No matter how much recognition their music and lyrics get or will get I will always think that theyre underrated, theyre just this good
Truly they are beyond good. They are on a spiritual level in a real way. Very close to my heart with some of their words. @@jez_77
“I know the words
But now I feel it inside
It grows, it's there
And all it comes
From the sky
From the sky”
Legit the highlight of my morning haha. My fav Radiohead song plus my fav from Gojira. So glad I randomly found this channel!
"travel light"... a double photondre
“It’s hard to interact with a world when you realize you have to detach from the world to really understand the world. “ Gonna ruminate on these words for a minute.
Nuggets like these are why I watch your videos!
You should react to some more Meshuggah, Sublevels is my pic.
This era of Meshuggah is much more musical compared to Bleed, very jazz inspired, and much groovier if you ask me
I suggest clockworks, swarm or Dancers to a Discordant System. They would translate well
Can we just appreciate how Artistic Judson is?
I read in the comments he is autistic though? 😉
Can't wait for "Flying Whales" and "The Heaviest Matter of The Universe". What introduced me to Gojira when looking for heavy songs for Clone Hero years back.
Shout out to the spectrum ! ❤
Go spectrum homies!
Oh this will be a good one. This is a good way to start the day 🤘
Incredible that you are giving a platform to an artist like Judson
There’s the art of letting go - in the dying sense - while being at peace with the life you’ve lived, traveling to the ‘other side’ without your proverbial baggage. And there’s the art of letting go of the unimportant things while you are alive. Engaging with the world around you is the fabric of life, and knowing when and how to detach *is* an art form.
I can totally see why you say this song can reflect different moods!
-Everyone is a diagnostician these days, of strangers no less 🤦🏻
Definitely symbolic death like every human being has to go through, an alchemical process of nature. It's more or less the metaphor of the Phoenix rising from the ashes
You've got a great point mentioning of "letting go"
The best way I can describe how I feel about Gojira is by quoting the words of @chrisbreatheslove, and it goes like this:
"Listening to Gojira has been one of the major pleasures of my life. Truthfully my favorite metal band.
The raw rich beauty speaks to the bone. The passion and emotions of a spiritual being on a human path. Just epic.
I hope everyone's life aligns at some point like this and to listen to this is a reflection of our innermost humanity."
25:32 Woah, man, breaking down the fourth wall on us! Everyone focuses on the negative. It's human nature. And it's annoying. And Judson, whenever anyone thinks differently, people wonder what your deal is. :)
I don't know but have you ever demonstrated Devin Townsend or Strapping Young Lad on here? I think it would make for an entertaining video.
It's songs like this where the Richard cam pays for itself. The reaction to Judson's reaction is priceless.
Every Gojira fan: "THIS PART IS BRUTALLLL"
Judson: *not impressed face*
I LOVE that you’re delving into the lyrics and having a heartfelt conversation about it. Most don’t! Thank you for “being intelligent” about it.
“I’d rather travel light!” ❤
Great song by a great band!
Hey, have youbever thought of giving IGORRR a go? Something like Himalaya massive ritual or IEUD!
I must have heard this sing a thousand times but this is the first time I've picked up on a tribal flute just before the guitars kick in at the beginning. I bloody love Gojira
😂 mate is right there second 1 😅
A wild NPC suddenly gains the power of sentience. Maybe next time you’ll realize it’s not a flute but a didgeridoo 😂😂😂
@@tim.noonan nah different to the didge
If you want more"didgeridoo" sound Judson, try AMAZONIA next time 😉. btw Paranoid Gojira was perfect.
You should give him another one of Opeth's softer tunes. Get him to listen to Isolation Years or something.
I hate and love Gojira. Their melodic stuff and intros are so dope. But I don't think it carries through for me in most their songs
Some Dillinger Escape Plan.
Fatewell Monalisa or Widower, please.
🤟Keep Measuring guys you're great I'm enjoyng to discover new music and laugh at the end with your reaction👍 That's my possitive comment for you🤟
Hey Guys, just recently got into Gojira, didn't like them at first. Not sure what it was but really like them now...
Give it a month and it'll be your favorite band ever
Wait until you get to Meshuggah. You won't understand it for a long time and then one day it will click and you won't be able to listen to anything else.
This track always just SLAPS! Seen Gojira live multiple times and this is always the highlight. Such a phenomenal and powerful song. Tell Judson he's cute.
Awww shucks…thanks!
Esoteric Surgery please❤

This is exactly what I want to watch over my morning cereal. Seeing them live is life alerting, seeing them play The Art of Dying was other worldly.
I love (sarcastically) how inconsiderate people just naturally are now. No one thinks of any deeper meanings or consequences and they just say shit. Cuz I instantly know what’s up cuz I’m in the same boat guys. We’ve all been through substance abuse rehab and come out the other side, although I’m still not technically sober and as a result, a mess. But every time people say shit like “they’re high/drunk” that shit triggers something, whether it’s a harmless as memories or as toxic as desires, it doesn’t need to happen either way. I think that sucks and also that people are literally full-blown stupid on a level that gets worse and worse and I can’t believe it every day.
This song is amazing....but the live video is 10x better!
You should also listen to the end part of the song in reverese, is a reveresed part from the song Esoteric Surgery.
I LOLd at Judson mentioning mean comments about people calling him autistic. 😆 I've definitely been called autistic a few times in my life so that's not a dig at Judson, I consider it a compliment at this point.
Really enjoying the content from you guys. Refreshing to hear some in depth perspectives to Metal music accompanied by some formal musical knowledge. Judson is a true class act by usually always finding something positive to say even if he didn't like a song as a whole.
Really appreciate honesty and comprehensive analysis with music reactions. You guys are killing it. 🪦🙏
I feel that Judson needs to hear some Orbit Culture. Its more melodic and not that "hard" to digest. 😀👍🏼
the entire album revolves around a creature that is constantly reborn, the songs themselves are in order - from birth to eventually accepting death. theres a song at the very end of this album that is basically coming to terms with death. this one is 8/12, with the 12th (the way of all flesh) being the end...only to spiral back aorund to "oroborus" which is a fitting name
Came here to for The Art of Dying, but was positively surprised to also find some Radiohead! OK Computer is such a smacker of an album, my god. Easily part of its decade's peak.
What a nice rendition of Paranoid Android at the beginning ...
Wish you'd react to Yammas Messengers by Gojira
he looks like hes over analytical which probably makes him such a great pianist, but man it looks likes hes seizing over it lol
Radiohead!
Oh fuck yeah, The Way of All Flesh! Love that record. Maybe surprise Judson with the more approachable stylings of A Sight to Behold, or just go for Flying Whales next since it's such an essential part of Gojira's catalogue?
Gojira r very interesting. Lyric & music wise. 1 of best Modern day Metal Bands. They r amazing live as well.
Every song on this album is so good
I love those Radiohead's intro. One of the best Gojira' songs, without a doubt.
Great analysis, guys. ✌️
That's my favorite Gojira song as well, great pick and great review :)
I personally have ARTism 😂❤
I'm with ya Richard. Might be my fave Gojira track. This or Heaviest Matter in the Universe. Probably this
I'm partial to backbone
This is my favorite song of all time! Thank you guys for this video I love all your videos keep it up!
Your view on the sentence "I would rather travel light" was a complete new idea for me. I've been listening to this song hundreds of times, I obviously have my own view on its deep meaning but listening to you two talking about it was so refreshing.
Also, I'd definitly watch a video of you taking an autism test LUL I'd say it's just your ARTISTIC side expressing itself in a autistic looking way haha
This band has soo many good songs but this song is one hell of a song!!! The drums are SO good!!!!
omg that radiohead intro ooof.. that was amazing, makes me wanna learn to play jsut that on piano
Should listen to Behemoth, Melechesh, Satyricon and maybe some Stoner Rock like Kyuss.
+rep for Melechesh
How can anyone like this stuff and not like Death… it’s just beyond me
Gojira aren't legends yet, symbolic and slaughter in the same yr... mental
@@darrenbooker8144 Both amazing albums. But Slaughter has gotten a lot of hate recently due to the whole Metalcore movement. Now is hard to go back and listen it and not think of that generic Metalcore sound
Deep thoughts for a Wednesday morning.
So deep I just realized it's Tuesday.
@@charlescook1749 I was about to say...
Had me second guessing myself.
Dang I Love when Yall get into the Lyrics + how long have Yall been friends? Cuz, 24m14s that particular banter is from Long-Time Friends who Understand the Other... I've been thru the Darkest times literally, and My Friends are still there, so just curious, plus just watched "Bother" Yall feel like similar Spirits! Thanks so much for what Yall do! Love it Sooo Much!
Yyyoooooo this goes hard😅
Disembodied anomalies ^^
I wonder if Judson would like Stranded or Amazonia by Gojira? Those are two of my favorites.
I don't think you're autistic, Jedson? Jenson? Judson? I don't know how your name is written, piano man. I'm Spanish BTW, that's why I sometimes don't know how rare and invented names are written, sorry, I'm not autistic either, I think?
Judson. Yeah not sure if I am or not
@@Greatmeasures Maybe, maybe not, maybe f*ck you /kidding (that's The Departed dialogue done well?)
I don't think you're that, I can even think that my brother in metal Richard is a little autistic because of his demeanours, but it's not a bad thing, in fact we are smarter, or so people say (that rhymes in spanish)
You both are great as a pair, just tell Richard to be more active before and after the review, he seem like a (repeats again)
The ritm at the beginning is actually a 45/4. Look up Yogev Gabay-the art of dying on RUclips, he has got a great explanation:)
Hey guys really like your show, I think it would be awesome If you reacted to some Paradise lost, I can suggest the song Darker Thoughts from them
I'd really be interested to see an Isis song here, would it be Backlit, Holy Tears, So Did We, Dulcinea or In Fiction. I like most of the videos i watched on this channel, please keep going!
It's funny that y'all mentioned the comments asking if Judson is on the spectrum, since he has sometimes reminded me of my best friend that has high functioning Asperger's, who is also the purest soul that I know!
Over the last decade, Gojira has ultimately become one of my favorite bands of the genre. I’ve seen them live twice…just to be able to watch Mario Duplantier play those drums live!!!
Awesome, I was waiting for this reaction! I'd love to see/hear your reaction/interpretation of Pat Metheny's Roots of Coincidence 😅
This song hits so hard, even years after discovering it
how about judson now improvises referencing of the songs he has listened so far of his favourites. i dont know if that makes sense but ..
I never could figure out the polyrhythm in this song on guitar...they have some tough ones...the cell is also tough...I finally figured it out, but if I don't play it for like a week I forget it again
I loved your analysis! I do tend to interpret "travel light" as not being weighed down with earthly possessions and preoccupations, but your first impression is insightful and we can look at it two ways and add to the artistry. That sound in the intro was actually the lead singer throat singing as he has trained himself to do so. But if you want didgeridoo, the Australian prog band Karnivool has a masterpiece song called Change Part 2 with a didgeridoo section that I would love your take on. Similar vibes, different heaviness.
I think The Gift of Guilt and L'Enfant Sauvage are must listen now guys
'art of dying' might be in a way of how you live your life itself, the beauty and the 'art' of living itself since everything is dying in the end. the only thing not certain is when actually right? maybe he is saying make your life a fokin art before you die!
Stranded is my favorite Gojira song
I'm rocking on Anti Hero by God Forbid today.... good Ole Ozzfest days, right Richard?
Vacuity, Heaviest Matter of the Universe, or Backbone!
Can’t remember if the Gojira song you did was Flying Whales, but if not, this one needs to be done.
Love this song. My favorite and first song I ever heard by them is Vacuity.
He should give that one a listen, just not the music video because it cuts a bunch out.
my favorite Gojira song has to be the title track of the album, such a powerful song were the first half is just pure anger and the second and the ending are the acceptance of dying and ultimatly dying
There's no money, there's no possessions
Only obsession, I don't need that shit
Take my money, take my obsession
in some ways the art of dying, is the art of living ... cuz as long as we are living we are also dying
You guys should try next
Slice the Cake - odyssey of the West
Great choice! One of my favorites. You should do Tool Pushit salival
I agree... this is the best Gojira song. And might even be a top 10 metal song of all.
Everyone who likes this song should definitely check out the live 2010 version from the Vieilles Charrues Festival
What a great, great, great episode, gentlemen! Apart from the great band (and the great measures), i also had a great laugh listening to you two, lol. And just earlier today i ve told my buddy about your channel emphasizing what a great metal-artistic ;-) duo you guys make!
I think my comment got deleted. Car b0mb is a band..
I love seeing the difference between Richard and Judsons listening reactions 😂
Remember ... You are on Super Mario time. It is the correct time, every time.
i feel like he would really really like the live version of global warming or the shooting star
Remember ... You are on Super Mario time. It is the correct time, every time.
5:23 here is when Gojira confuses the musicians with his crazy timing
you guys really listening and paying attention, i like your points of view or interpretations of it
Would love to see you cover Heaviest Matter of the Universe as far as Gojira songs go. Sure, not one of their most complex ones, but damn it's good.
