Will you come in Belgium this year ? Please 🙏

i was waiting for this video. thank you guys!

la fiertée française les gars 👏👏👏

Gojira no falla , muchísimo nivel 👌🏼

Tienes que hacer un video de gojira son la polla

Chevelle sounds amazing live as well

ANALIZA GLOBAL WARMING

In pol'and'rock evething sounds like this ;)

Only gojira and pantera have ever had it.. No one else. It’s one thing to play well in the studio but this kind of ”effortless” accuracy live is something that requires a lifetime of training and chemistry.

@@NM-xi8or I disagree ! Lamb of god is amazing aswell !

@@Fulbergt they are amazing but don’t quite have that level of chemistry. They are one pf the best live bands ever tho.

@@NM-xi8or Meshuggah tops all of them. I fckin love Gojira, saw them twice live but Meshuggah is on another level

@@antoinegesret4770 Meshuggah is loud and simple. Great drummer but ovverrated as fuck.

Well, the organizer of this festival was actually nominated to one last year 😅 (btw this festival has no tickets)

@@majalubiak9189 You just show up?

@@captainbeard3323 yes it’s a public festival i think. you just show up.

wtf fr?? imagine seeing gojira live with this sound quality for free, i just cant.

@@hfl_ you can ; ) simply come and see

Yeah, that's one happy man. Good for him.

Damn right !

im a bass player too and im like that in my bands practise. The ohter guys just sit or stand like idiots :D

It's a big contrast with Joe who is always very serious

Don't like this guy. Looks like a hyperactive kid.

everytime i listen to them its like having the presence of something ancient, wise and hidden from this world (might seem odd i guess..)

Wouldn’t doubt it.

bob frode i kno what u mean my guy

We're all spiritual entities.

I agree it’s the kind of band that make you go somewhere else when you close your eyes

Fucking circle pit to the intro, nuts!

Welcome to Poland

@@andrzejjesion5272 respect from Catalunya

And an inflatable shark for no reason at all I was there live and ive seen people in flip flops in the pit btw, to this day i have no idea how are they able to walk after that

Nah we always do that on Woodstock. Smashing heads and running into each other is a ritual

Nice profile pic🦣🤘

Ol lady just brought me tix for nov14 in Chesterfield, MO...hope the sets this badass.. Nice mastodon pic..i like leviathan myself .

I saw them in Orlando on their Fortitude tour. It lives rent-free in my memory forever now.

I've been there. Can confirm, absolutely magical moment. Best concert I ever attended, listening to this brings back memories how it felt. Nostalgia hits hard.

@@MultiGolonka same, I saw them a few times and they are amazing....they even introduced me to a band called the Atlas Moth, and their album old believer is one of my favorites

Soroosh Mhs Here's another midlife milestone for you brother; KZfaq Thuleanperspective, and his wife Marie Cachet- revolution

Soroosh Mhs nice Tool logo btw

So fuckin true same was for me

Saw them open up in Kansas City in 07 with Machine Head, Trivium, and Lamb of God. My brother and I got there early and hit the bar at the back of the club. They came out to Flying Whales, so that slow intro started right after the lights went off. They all come out lookin' like Metallica from the 80's, all in black and wristbands. We started walking up to the stage and that shit hit... it was like we were walking in to a wall. There's no describing it. I was instantly hooked. There were a lot of memorable moments from that show, but to this day, my brother and I still talk about the first time Gojira hit us in the face with sound. No lookin' back since.

Can’t wait until I get to experience that.

Listen to the Police live album 😱

Listen to porcupine tree live... Better than in studio

Listen to Devin Townsend playing Kingdom on emgtv. This is amazing, but devy is even better than the album

Totally agree @jon smith

Parkway Drive has a show they did for a DVD from the last few years and that gives this a run for it's money.

I need to get head there

@@fanrosefabrose9457 🤔

Indeed. The Festival itself is organized as a 'thank you' to the volunteers for the - pardon my bad translation - Great Orchestra for the Holiday Help, which is a non-profit organization with a goal of collecting money for the hospital equipment, mostly for sick children. Festival itself is paid for by the sponsors and the attendance is free for everyone.

J. Krishnamurti

The 4 Fantastics

4 Horsemen of apocalypse.

These 4 Frenchman can MUTHAFUCKIN ROCK.

4 noble Gojiras

To me Gojira creates archetypes. Hear me out... They sound like a villain who torn between good and evil. Oh we got lots of nice singing and soulful heartache -but we also got Vader at the end of Rogue One. Gojira are perfect.

You made my day duude :)

I'd argue decapitation by guillotine is pretty hardcore

Thanks for the set list brother in metal 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

Me too🥳better late than never🎉😆🖤

The air was red. Looks toxic.

@@Tetrastuctural_Intelligence It was some very hot and sunny days in row, no clouds or rain, so with so many people walking around for few days the whole area turned into a dust desert. There were firefighters who sprayed people with water, people sharing water with eachother, cheep bear, some good guys giving shade to tired people. Great experience! Very tiring but great and unforgetable.

You must be bless by flying whales!!

Pray to the Flying Whales

I lost my shoes in some moshpit, jumped barefoot from this point through the whole thing. Had a bit swollen feet the day after, but jesus it was worth it. And yes, I was a bit drunk to begin with. Want to see them live again... this was so fuckin brutally awesome

and they play so much less mainstream music. they're about to make it as a prog band.

so true

Gojira, Tool, Opeth and Meshuggah

@@baphometwingsof666 the best of the best

So be it, brother!

I've seen them 4 times now, and they alwys have incredible sound, and it just keeps growing more awesome to experience, it will blow your mind

Lucky we're able to watch this on KZfaq.

I've been there and let me tell you: this recording doesn't even come close to how good this concert was!

Steven Mackie they definitely need a live album. This is superb sound for sure

I don't ever remember seeing, or even hearing a better LIVE performance. I'm blown away. These guys are UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE!!!!!! Everything in PERFECT time, and PERFECTLY played instruments, and singing. Wow...

@@jamiesloan5902 Parkway Drive's live set has killer sound quality too, man. It's for a DVD they did, maybe last year?

@@jamiesloan5902 they struggled their way through the flying whales breakdown at 27:00, I notice that all of them stopped wearing their in ear monitors after this song except Mario so something probably happened to them right before this part of the song and it threw them off a lot while they figured out what was going on and switched modes mentally, from playing with the click to not, but they still did a great job and finished out the whole rest of the set amazingly, with that setback only being a minor hiccup. not trying to dis them, they're my favorite band. the fact that they played the remembrance outro all by feel on stage with no click track between them flawlessly is extremely impressive

im fall in love again of this guys after this live!

Well tbh if you take your phone up you lose it in like 2seconds

JuSt PeOpLe LiVInG tHE MomENt

Infest90 the way it should be

At Pol'and'Rock you leave everything at your tent. You'd lose that phone in no time.

Nobody gives a fuck. For real. Let people take an 8 second clip of their favorite band to commemorate a mind-blowing show. Not that they could with the crowd being so wild, but still. Who cares?

Thank You! It was the best concert ever on Woodstock Poland 🖤 come see next @polandrockfestival in this year!

@@MyGaja it was fucking intense mannn, I loved every second of it. Would give anything to see them again

I remember the 90s festivals it was a wild metal generation.

@TheGhov nobody ever did. I watched nearly all Gojira lives and I've been to one myself, and they always rush before the drums goes off....

you can clearly see hundreds of people on their phones

They're not in my favourite genre but in terms of live-execution? Holy shit I'm unable to name a band that out-performs these guys

Kc deportes? Qué haces aquí?

@@Amazistringsmusic Only matched by Meshuggah in a live setting I'd say.

@@D0ffy i saw both of them but meshuggah were barely close to gojira in terms of performance. Not saying they were bad, just not as good as the French gods 😅

@@Trippo0793 Have to disagree, I've seen them 4 times and it has always been mind-blowingly tight. One of those gigs is still in my top 3 gigs of all time, absolutely mental and their light shows are always a spectacle. To each his own though, Meshuggah and Gojira are both some of my absolute favourite bands.

every concert has the same sound

@@sebastiancyburt6132 well not at all actually, but clearly not every recording of that sound is the same either, it takes lots of hard work and expensive equipment.

@@DruNature The point is that many concerts with Polandrock Festival sound perfect. Live and on video

@@sebastiancyburt6132 didnt realise you were talking about Polandrock. This is the only set ive seen from this festival, very impressive.

@@TIAMATPW ok no problem. on youtube there are a lot of concerts from polandrock (and formerly from woodstock) where the concerts always sound perfect. Have a good day !!

this is poland rock festival

@@sebastiancyburt6132 what a fantastic comment thanks for the information 🤣🤣🤣

oh yes! did you notice all the vocal variations in "The Cell"? it's absolutely amazing !!!!

@@sashasiobud4793 His voice is perfect in this live. I can't believe it. Truly one of the greatest metal singer of this era.

I agree, dude. People were saying the constant touring lately seems to have taken a bit of a toll on his voice. Maybe true and he toned it down in some parts and didn’t scream, but it’s almost like it became better! This version of L’enfant Sauvage with less screaming almost has like a different dimension to it and it’s so fucking good. How can a singer be toning it down and still be incredible, if not better?!

I mean i love Gojira but in this video his vocals are so autotuned it's ridiculous

Joe truly has a marvelous voice.

Sumac and Primitive Man are even louder and they have only three members each

Double and triple tracking, delays.

I love Gojira but seems that you have never heard an orchestra

Now there’s a thought, gojira and orchestra 🤔

@@brettkeepin808 Metallica S&M style. I see this music working well with an orchestra. Holy crap.

Fr

Chills every time no joke

Absolutely one of my favorite tracks EVER

I prefer this version to the album version too, adds even more emotion to a part that was already overflowing with it. The lighting makes it even more epic too

No doubt. That had to be their biggest to date.

It is not that much about the nationality as about the fest itself. It's Polish Woodstock festival. However, they had to change the name of the fest last year. It is the biggest open air free festival, no tickets, hence so many people. And it actually doesn't matter if it is metal or reggae concert. There is no other place like that in the whole country, it is an enclave of real freedom. This is our sacred place and we celebrate each concert there that way. We warmly invite you to come and be happy with this extraordinary community we have there. The fest takes place on the Polish-German border on the first weekend of August. If Gojira wins the Golden Spinning award in the voting of Woodstock fans, they should come again to receive the award. This is how it usually works with Woodstock. However, big foreign bands rarely come for the award.

Yeah, we're kinda hyper people at the concerts, however no comparison with Japan or South America, for instance. These folks there are maaad!

They're not that far from you age wise. All of them except Mario is over 40, and Jean-Michel turns 45 this year. I'm 49 btw. It's funny how the musical brickwall between the generations has crumbled. When I was young, no one that I knew of my parents age listened to the heavier music of the day. Metal was the music of the young. Today, people of all generations listen to the same music.

Same here...50 yrs old and totally hooked on Gojira. I could listen to their music for hours....Animals as leaders I can't get past 2 minutes, sorry. Personal taste I guess.

@@lingonberriesofwrath1836 I am 40, but actually I notice it the other way round. Only us old people listen to hard stuff. There are less and less younger people interested in heavy stuff.

Ha ha! Me, too. I'm turning 50 this summer; I just discovered metal this past year when my buddy dragged me, unwillingly, to a metal festival. I am absolutely hooked. Gojira is fiercely talented and I would love to see them headline - even if it's in a club setting.... Cheers to you, my friend!

@@PatagonianWarrior Great comment. Never really thought about it, but a lot of truth to what you posted. Thanks...

Behemoth live in paris, and avenged sevenfold at LBC.... GO FOR IT

I was thinking how amazing they aound live, they even manage to sound better than on the album, it's crazy!

*Hats off, but yes. It sounds amazing. Also, just noticed that they're using the tiny but badass Earthworks mics, at least on the toms.

It's kind of surprising Gojira chose that almost unknown swiss guy out of the blue to mix some of their live recordings when they probably can have any high profile mixers in this business to work on their stuff. Anyways, the result sounds as good if not better than the best live videos I've seen. Kudos to Raphaël Bovey, the guy totally nailed this mix.

yep this and Opeth at Red Rock Amphitheater has the best sound I've heard at a metal concert

@@triumphtinltcomicdg Indeed. That Opeth show sounds classy as hell

Gojira is the truth.

>this shitty circle pit >moshpit choose one

@@1chauka1 it's a pre-concert pit dude. They hadn't even came out yet

@@truedarklander, OP metions a >big moshpit on the pre-concert intro , so Im calling it out. Also there's no 'big moshpits' on woodstock (at least in poland), 'cause it's fucking woodstock, a non-metal commercial fest

@@1chauka1 that's why the next day they had Maiden and Arch Enemy?

u should see the link alive dvd and the flesh alive dvd.

you're starting to "get" Gojira because they've turned more commercial, I think unintentionally. It's a fact; they've turned commercial even with their perfomances. The voice of Joe on this live show is a shadow of what it used to be (for example, the flesh alive)

@@mariosanchez4877 Gojira spent the majority of their career with no money , if by commercial you mean earning money with their music and getting more accessible , then good for them . also yes joe's voice has changed , he aged ..that 's it ..i don't know any singer who has the same voice at 45 years old that he had in his mid 20's early 30's

All good dude, I'm 55 and just discovered them.

who would be so stupid and pull out his smartphone in that wild of a crowd? it's instantly stomped to death :D

..but you are right! its sad that this is even a thing worth mentioning..

Well I was there, barelly anyone has phone battery charged actually because it's 1 week festival in the middle of nowhere. You go there with a tent, food, alcohol, drugs perhaps with 500 thousand of other people and you enjoy life outside of civilization for couple of days. So even if you had your phone there you don't really use it at all. Going there is really life changing experience.

Check their older charrues festival performance. It's really old so it doesn't have newer songs but I really like that mix myself.

Gojira holds the record for the loudest concert (and sound) ever recorded at the Stade de France.
