As you're talking about Mario's drum technique and his crazy double kick, you should watch their song "Where dragons dwell" live at Hellfest 2013. Spoiler: the (long) ending contains 4 minutes of non stop double bass pedal. No need to say it's pretty impressive.

No No , Mario Duplantier is just that good , regarded as one of the best modern metal drummer , no cheating , he practice double kick for one hour straight "as a warm up " every day " he only uses triggers on tour on some specific songs to help him to not be too tired when you have a concert every two days ( he is 41 one now ) , they come from death metal , so yeah ver technical stuff on their albums even though now they're more chill .But if you listen to their past albums you'll see , check out the combo "Oroborus /theheaviest matter of the universe live garorock 2009 , live it's where they reallY shine.#BESTLIVEMETALBANDEVER Gojira is a rabbit hole man , they don't have any bad songs

My favorite song from Gojira is Vacuity. It probably could be a single since it flows really well from start to finish. Best song on its album IMO too.

Havent given gojira the deep dive they deserve but this song is a masterpiece for sure

gojiras drummer is crazy ( Mario duplantier) , they came from death metal originally and was very well respected drummer from that can play crazy fast and crazy patterns , his brother (joe) is the singer/guitarist

You are in for an absolute treat with a Gojira deep dive. They have soooo much good music.

you have been listening to all their newer stuff, the older you go the harder it gets for sure!

Check out Rememberance by Gojira Also Mario Duplantier's Drum Solo's are insane. Check out his 2022 solo

Where dragons dwell. Double kick for like 5 minutes straight. He's a freaking animal!

''I wont bring no material in the after life. take no possesions i would rather travel light!'' a quote to live by!

You should do the live stuff. Then you can see the drum guy in real, he is unreal! You do Gojira? I subb!

There's a hint in the lyrics before the outro energy change from negative to positive he says "my shape in the reflector has now forever a life on its own As though the afterlife is positive new form in our lives and death is just an illusion

Love this song. Gojira will be starting out my work tunes today.

Nice to see you getting back to Gojira, I highly highly recommend the live version of "Remembrance" Live At The Link Alive DVD performance to be specific. I guarantee your mind will be blown 🤯, the breakdown is freaking wild bro! Great video man, please do more Gojira!

I am a fan of all your Gojira reactions im here for this. Thank you this is awesome

Second comment, on the drumming, it's not just the speed at which his feet are moving but pay attention to what's happening up top with the drums as well, because it is nothing less than amazing he is able to keep his feet and hands working at such a pace for so long.

Hey this is a bit off topic but I really enjoy your talking voice! Reminds me of someone, but i cant recall :D

That middle section is crazy 🤘

No double pedal, on an interview he says he just kicks the pedal for like an hour straight, I'm serious those were his words. The guy asked him really an hour? He said yeah I only have maybe a 5 minute break and that's it. Dude is real

If you ever watch live performances these guys give their all in concerts they are super intense

Great reaction best yet.

To my fellow Gojira fans: Do you like Thrash metal? There's an amazing French Progressive Thrash Metal band called Arcania, I describe them as "If Gojira made Thrash Metal". Arcania has 2 albums called "Dreams Are Dead" and "Sweet Angel Dust", both albums are bangers from start to finish. I highly recommend checking them out if that sounds appealing to you, enjoy my friends! 🤘🤘🤙🤙

Mario does not use triggers, just pure thigh and quad power... enough to light a city!!! Go watch the lives.. it's all him.

If i was to make a Big 5 of bands active today, Gojira would be there.. just my taste.. and they proberly got the best drummer in metal, but thats almost imposible to rank right.. but he is damn good, and so is the rest.. This song is among my top 5 Goljira songs, those above could be the gift of guilt, flying whales, and lénfant sauvage, i prefer them live, its very badass live..

Mario is trained in jazz so he is able to hold multiple time signatures and patterns with different limbs simultaneously lol.

after the outro the next song vacculty starts out with kick your teeths in xD

Mario doesn’t use triggers, ever

For me from the sky

Mario practices A LOT, he doesnt drink before concerts because it would be disrespectful to his fans the people who pay money to see them perform and I respect the crap out of that

Dan we have the same taste and you’re gonna love Gojira

Man, you are super under-rated as a reactor. I completely agree with judging music for the song and as a piece of music. Couldn't articulate it. You summed it up well. The whole band is great, but Mario is just on another level in my opinion. Cheers.

Meilleur groupe de métal français avec mass hysteria

Mario doesn’t use triggers, he’s just not a human being

Mario Duplantier is a god. Statement of fact.

🤟🤟🤟

8:52 just letting you know what your thinking about is triggers and yes all metal drummers use them yes all and no it does not do what you’ve heard people say it does and also your mixing it up so Lorna Shores drummer does heel toe double bass that’s why he can go so stupid fast so his foot hits once than the rebound brings it back up to his foot than he slams his heel down and the beater hits the drum again for one leg motion equals two hits it’s all technique that is not that the triggers do triggers based on how the drummer sets it up you can set the sensitivity and mix drum sample sounds in to make your bass drum more hearable and sound better Mario uses hybrid triggering so half of what your hearing is his acoustic bass drum and the other half is a computer sample that makes it sound good and btw Mario does not do heel toe double bass like the Lorna shore drummer Mario does straight ankle motion single strokes which is all the more impressive look up vids on single stroke vs double stroke double bass and also just want to put this in here triggers is not anyway cheating all it does is change the sound of your bass drum and some drummers can ramp up the sensitivity where they don’t have to hit the bass drum so hard to make it make a full hit sound but that’s not what Mario does Mario is pure organic while using triggers

Just don't know where this misconception comes from but so called 'triggers' do NEVER add any hits. The only purpose is to get a constant pronounced sound even with lighter strokes. Austin from Lorna Shore, for example, just looks like he'd do only half of the audible bass drum strokes cus he uses double strokes like RRLLRRLL and so on, plus he does both strokes per foot with a kinda downwards movement ('heel-toe-tecnique') - so all this together at really high tempos almost looks like he'd just do single strokes/half of the bass drum u actually hear. Mario uses triggers live to keep the bass drum sound tight. Triggers are just sensors that get 'triggered' by every single hit and with each hit a recorded sample (of only one stroke) will be played. NOTHING else! U can basically use any sample but in this case we talk 'bout bass drum samples, obviously... Greets from a drummer 🤟

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii want priiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingles

You are the only art of dying reactor I've seen mention the opening verse being slightly out of step with the beat, and I think this it is one of the most underrated parts of the song, it is 110% intentional, and it ads so much to how those opening lines, the first four lines in particular in combination with the rest of the instrumentation create a dissonance, and the actual lyrics make total sense to be dissonance because it's like he's out of synch with the world around him, and so he's out of synch with the music

New album is mostly crap … stick with anything older and enjoy some amazing music!!!

No PEDs brother. Hes straight talent. This entire album is worth a listen, really. One of the best metal albums put out in the last 20 years imo
