The great thing about Gojira... at the same time the music makes you want to fight.. the lyrics are about something else entirely. This is a person leaving their body (through astral projection), leaving the confines (cages) of their mind, and finding that the heaviest matter of the universe is love. Thank you mighty Gojira. And thanks for reacting to this. I subscribed.

These guys are even BETTER live. And welcome back :0)

This song is not allegorical but literal. Jump into that Third Eye pic behind you and travel :). But for real, its about astral projection and Joe's experiences with it. The heaviest matter in the universe, is the matter that keeps the soul tethered inside of your body. Once you separate your soul remains attached to the body by the silver cord (the name of their recording studio). Some people experience sleep paralysis right before they separate... that feeling is "HEAVY"!

The Gift of Guilt - Gojira, live at Brixton if you want. It's a testament to how talented they are especially live

It’s really nice watching a reactor who knows about music enough to appreciate some the nuances of the art. I’m subbing!

Hi...Helene here. Wow....going for the REALLY heavy stuff! It’s funny: I just heard this band for the first time today on another channel. Reminds me of Rammstein. Both talented bands, no doubt....but MAN are they HEAVY metal! At least to me....

Belle réaction JRV. I hope you will check more Gojira songs. So many catchy groovy Amazing songs. You'd like the gift of guilt live at brixton academy, flying whales, silvera, backbone etc..

Tremendous album front to back. Also the best heavy act I've ever seen live. Mario is a freak with that double-kick.

Where dragons dwell is such a great gojira song it’s heavy as well, not as heavy, but backbone is probably Gojira s heaviest song or maybe tied with Heavy matter. I’d check both out

Great stuff man, just fantastic artists

Aye bro I like how you actually know stuff about music, makes your reaction feel more genuine and entertaining, just subbed

Saw these guys live and when they played this song it literally shook the ampitheater love it great reaction

Check out some Dream Theater. They're like a heavier Rush, which I know you're a fan of. The song The Glass Prison is usually a good starter.

React to Clone by Gojira. It’s one of there earlier songs, it’s more technical and heavy!!!!

Just caught this reaction. Dude I tell you what, if you're into Gojira, I'd love to see your reaction to several others. Every single one of these will knock you on your ass or lead you to other videos that will Jinjer-Pisces probably the fastest growing metal act today. Very deep rabbit hole, very large fan base. You want to get a shitload of subscribers very quick, check them out. Their vocalist, Tatiana is the queen of metal right now, and in the opinion of many , the best there is. Slaughter to prevail-Agony. Insane drummer. Their vocalist, Alex terrible, is probably the king of metal right now. Also has an exploding fan base Crystal Lake-Aeon. Pure Japanese rage. One of the angriest songs you will ever hear Humanity's last Breath-Earthless. Warning, gruesome Infant Annihilator-Blasphemian. Warning, extremely gruesome. Insanely good drummer Meshuggah-Bleed. Probably the most highly-regarded drummer ever. Applying nearing influence to almost all bands listed above, including Gojira. Opeth- Ghost of Perdition. A big pioneering influence you almost all of them bands listed above, including Gojira. Monochromatic Black-Abaddon. A newcomer on the scene. Super hot, talented and aggressive female vocalist Sorry to throw such a big list at you, but I'm certain that you will like several of these. SUBBING

Ey bro i heard your intro. It's chill and groovy, I like it.

Check out "Toxic Garbage Island" and "Flying Whales". These guys are crushing live too.

check out 'oroborus' if you get a chance its a good one

Just subscribed! I love these videos. The Art of Dying is one of my favorite tracks from them too. Please react to Car Bomb, Meshuggah, Deftones, Tool! You won’t regret it! ❤️👍🏽🙌🏽

"I feel like I wanna fight" that's the feeling of the vocals. Then you learn the control.

Hell yes! That's all that needs to be said

Gojira is incredible. This song constantly makes you think "it can't possibly get heavier than this!"... And then it hits you with extra atmospheres of pressure and grinds you into a fine paste.lol

For most black folks they cant get passed the lyrics/singing. Gojira is that new metal bad i been listening to alot . The drummer Mario Duplantier is ridiculously talented. His play is very melodic and musical. Alot of drummers in this genre or the metal genre are mechanical almost the total opposite of musical or melodic! Another great song to check out is silvera the power the energy they exude is tremendous man it really is incredible. I would started you on something like silvera ..because the heaviest matter is pretty fucking heavy. But dont let this one scare you away i would suggest trying them live it really gives you an appreciation when your watching them play the music..the speed and precision is awesome man! Have a great night and a better tomorrow my man! Catch ya'll visionaries on that flipside ya'll! Peace!! Richy Rich out!!

Try Flying Whales or The Gift of Guilt next!

Best thing to happen to music in years..Gojira shreds

These guys are SO AMAZING. Even better live. When things become "normal" and they start touring, please make it a point to go see them! You will NOT regret it.

Gojira is one heavy, deep, intelligent band. Remembrance is bad ass.

Gorjira rocks

Killer song. The entire intro is in 4/4 btw, it's just phrased kind of weird

The vocal effect that Joe Duplantier (The singer) uses is called a false chord. When you use a false chord, the sound your getting is from a "second set" of vocal chords located above the glottis. To do this, you simply find the point between your normal voice and your falsetto voice where you get a lot of grit and cracking. From there, simply force it louder and you will get a false cord scream.

"How do they do that?" The answer is pure technique, like myself he uses a modified vocal fry technique which allows you to get a lot of you own voice through the growl meaning you can add tone and pitch to in the way he does. It's hard to really explain how to do it without showing you in person but it takes a heck of a lot of practise to get it as good as Joe does, like years and years of practise.

Oh, and the song is about Joe's experiences with sleep paralysis. The whole album (From Mars To Sirius) tells a story about environmentalism and the crazy shit he sees when he astral projects. It's really interesting. Definitely their greatest album.

OPETH, make it happen!

3:48 neck grab after talking about the vocal fry 😆

check out gorod. all their songs are good. celestial nature has a guitar playthrough video that is nice

For even heavier, darker metal, check out Suffocation. Cataclysmic Purification video. End of the world stuff. Pure Death metal!

You're spot on with the lyrics so far. They are big environmental activists, so they are talking about the day that will hopefully (but probably will) not come when all of the polar caps melt and floods happen. They're looking to the whales to help us fly and and help us get above the water. I HIGHLY recommend looking at their interviews and further songs. Especially live videos. 😘

He doesn’t do vocal fri scream he does false chord screaming and growling and he mixes it with his voice to make that unique false chord low

To do those vocals takes practice. It's about loosening the vocal folds while you sing. Try to see how deep your voice can get while grunting. It's sort of a similar feeling. Don't strain to growl when you sing or you can blow your vocals out like James Hetfield did

If you want to react to some really wild vocals I’d recommend Dir En Grey’s Different Sense or Diabolos

I like your reactions bro I just subscribed to your Channel

The song is about being in space and going into a black hole

👍🤙🔥

ur intro smooth af bro

Check out pray!

You have to listen to MGLA for a complete different flavor of current metal genres.

Gojira inferno live

You gotta look up death spiritual healing

OK you heavy metal fans out there....Question: Who has the heaviest sound; Gojira, Pantera or Rammstein? If none of these, who do you think has the HEAVIEST sound in metal? Perhaps Slipknot?

Must watch Gojira live. Do Pray live from Red Rocks

A lot of metal artists have to train themselves or have professional coaching in order not to damage their vocal cords.

no effect, just his voice

Gojira - The gift of guilt

Great reaction brother. Live! Gitta do them live! 'Flying Whales".

Check out Flying whales, from the same album

The best introduction to GOJIRA is Ocean Planet. You hit this and it is like WTF holy shit. These are French dudes by the way

Whole song is in 4/4 it's just syncopated as fuck

Flying Whales and Ocean Planet are heavy songs from this album!!

Slipknot - Unsainted. Please.❤️
