I think Art of Dying would be your Gojira jam.

Stranded, Silvera or Flying wales are brilliant to get into Gojira

Both "Global warming" and "The heaviest Matter" are from the same album... and you wouldn't believe how diverse they go on to be... The next album "The way of all flesh" is my favourite and trust me you would love it as well... hope to see you react to "Ouroboros", "Toxic Garbage island" or "The Way of all flesh" :)

can totally understand that "Global Warming" didn't catch you from a separate listening session. it works so much better in album context, as closer for the awesome "From Mars To Sirius", which has a perfect flow and is still the best work by Gojira, imho.

Next time you do gojira check out some gig footage. They are a hell of a live band.

*hears Gojira *crawls out of the abyss Me: It is time! Where my fellow Gojira fans at?!

This band is like French cuisine. It may not appeal to everyone's taste or be for every meal. It may take time to develop an affinity for it. A beverage or substance may need to accompany it for the optimal enjoyment. Any Gourmand should at least admire the integrity of the craftsmanship.

The whole album From Mars to Sirius is a good place to start. I also think you will love Magma, their newest album. All of their albums are good, but like Rush, they all have their own distinct flavor....nice reaction Jim.

Amazing Jim, so glad you gave this amazing bad a second chance! I hope you'll get back to them in the future, this album has some phenomenal tracks on it, give the song Flying Whales a listen! Keep up the great work my man! :)

Ocean Planet or Flying Whales next! Great reaction as always man

"3...2..1..Boosh" ...... "FUCKNG HELL!" quickest real reaction ever recorded.

Mastodon - 'The Czar', 'Hearts Alive' or 'The Last Baron'

I'm not sure why it's so satisfying watching you enjoy a song I've been listening to for ages, but I'm glad you dug them! The sound they have definitely changes, I'd say From Mars to Sirius and The Way of All Flesh are my favorites. If you like this SYL style of punishment, Backbone off From Mars to Sirius or All the Tears (which got a music video) from The Way of All Flesh would be perfect.

Hi Jim, I haven’t listened to Gojira more than maybe ten minutes in total. I was so surprised about the in your face brutal sounds and attitude. Before this I was listening to Nick Johnston. Guitar driven instrumental music, great melodies and touch and tasteful professional playing. The contrast from Johnston to Gojira made me jump up 😊 But if you feel up to give it a go with Nick Johnston it would be great. Maybe track ”Remarkably Human” or some other track from the album.

Glad you gave them another chance (Global Warming not a good "first song")! Flying Whales... Silvera...Art of Dying... you can't go wrong (especially if you do the live versions from Brixton, Vieilles, etc). Their drummer, Mario Duplantier, is astonishingly good!

Oh man. Love this song. It’s my alarm.

Check out Gojira + Devin Townsend - Of Blood And Salt!

flying whales is next,melody and heavy as hell and the biggest drop ever made

Finally someone is using quality headphones while 'reacting'.

What about some more Haken? Their magnus opus is Visions. Just 22 minutes of prog greatness! Their older songs usually dont get blocked

l'Enfant Savauge (Probably misspelled). Great Gojira track!

It's about falling into a literal cosmic black hole.

So glad you enjoyed & reacted to this song 🤟 you should listen to Where Dragons Dwell next or From The Sky 🎵

I think flying whales really captures a lot of their sound in one track. But from Mars to Sirius is a Sirius piece of work for an album!

Gojira - Where Dragons Dwell @ Hellfest 2013 =)

Same band and both songs are from the same album, From Mars To Sirius. One of the best metal albums ever recorded. Global Warming is the album closer and I guarantee you'll it enjoy more within the context of the album and its overall concept. Glad you gave them another chance.

My favourite songs on the From Mars to Sirius album are "Flying Whales" and "Where Dragons Dwell". They are pretty similar to this one as well so I think you would like them :)

rewatching this after a year......you need to do more gojira.

One of the most atmospheric and heavy songs they did is Flying Whales, awesome intro on the studio version, and the song is amazingly tight!

Just getting into your videos, enjoying the lot. Well, the ones that I know and like, anyways. Hope you keep it up for some time!

Art od Dying or Flying Whales will blow your mind!

You have to do flying whales mate. It’s the song that opened my eyes to Gojira’s genius. So, so good

Goodmorning Jim, So I'm not over the top a fan like many are today for the band, but THIS album is by FAR my fave Gojira album as to me, represented what they are all about. The beginning of the song always reminded me of Morbid Angel (one of the early preveyors of Death Metal and the "Florida Death Metal Scene"): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h6qhprhqz9ysfWg.html Another of the same scene - mid to later years of "Death" (those proggy Death Metal odd-meter, polymetered riffs) and swedes Meshuggah, which all Gojira are influenced by. The next albums "The Way of All Flesh" and "L'Enfant Sauvage" are also really good. That "WeoooW!" sound during the guitar riffs are muting the strings on the frets, and taking the pick to the side, and wiping the strings upward from the high to lower strings above the pickups quickly. The 1st time I heard that was back in 1995 and the debut album of _Nevermore_ and Jeff Loomis insane guitar solo on "Sea of Possibilities": kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f6hkpsWArpy-nKs.html So, that brings me to suggest . . . *Meshuggah* - "Future Breed Machine" which is featured on my essay that I shared with you. MANY fans of the band will most likely choose other tracks and albums. But THIS is the album that got me into them, and it only took 2 minutes-in to be floored. The main reason I love it so much is that, its taking that "groove" of Pantera (during that time where they were getting HUGE), that "4/4" timing, but turning it on its ear. Its what Meshuggah madly do _WITHIN_ that 4/4 that puts them on another level of Metal. Each member takes turns being the "percussive" instrument. At times Tomas Haake is the "Lead Instrument" playing more like a Metal version of Jazz/Fusion on the Drums. And then Fredrik Thordendal, the Lead and 2nd Rhythm Guitarist in the "Solo", all the sudden, its as if Jazz/Fusion great "Allan Holdsworth" comes in to do the solo, and Haake becomes a Fusion drummer quietly adding accents to the solo, and then . . . Well, see/hear for yourself (please go with the "Studio" track 1st to absorb the amazing musicianship of each band member) 1995: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htV4lJdp0dfXoXk.html Lyrics: genius.com/Meshuggah-future-breed-machine-lyrics I still listen to this album (and others) on a regular basis. Meshuggah's music is like a Tank thrown against a 747 by a giant robot that is being shot at by an A-10 Warthog . . . yeah, I think that describes them best :P. If you do like it and slowly become a Meshugganer, I'll suggest a Live track and Video ;). Oh, by the way, the vocalist "Jens Kidman" is not human, he's a T-800 Terminator (you'll see eventually what I mean "live") :D.

I like this song! Thanks for the review!

Recommendations: - Vinuska by Dir En Grey - Human Condition by Triosphere - Phoenix Rising by Before the Dawn - Astral Liberation by The Parallydium Project - Secret Sciences by Devin Townsend - Aeromancy by Dorje - All is Lost by Symphony X

PLEASE do "Indians" and "Remembrance" !!!

Anekdoten - books of hours. Enjoy Jim

Hello Jim. Excellent song 🤘

React to space time!!!! SPACE TIME SPACE TIME SPACE TIME!!!!!!!

Gojira Flying Whales, or the Art of Dying if you really want to hear some stellar musicianship!!

Stranded!!! Simple badass riff

le sauvage/gift of guilt/born in winter are good entry gojira and some of my favs

"It's the intesity of SYL" lol We would get along. Townsend is the shit

You might like Gojira's Magma album more... has a sludgy sound... but great sound production, and some catchy melodies buried in the arrangements, a bit like Mastodon manage in the chaos...

Jim: hopefully they can bring it back. Gojira: "give us one second". *Literally*...

I love Gogina

"Go-gee-rah". Didn't really care for Global Warming either but Gojira is one of the best bands going!

Gojira is incredibly heavy. But in my opinion nowhere near the intensity of the album King by Fleshgod Apocalypse. The only word I could use to describe that entire album is "Oppressive" (preface: From what I have seen I don't think you'd like them due to the typical deathmetal vocals. But all the symphonic elements might make up for it. If you do give them a listen I'd recommend starting with the song Gravity)

Hi Jim. Try Gojira - Stranded official video. It's very different with a memorable riff. Also think you'd like Art of Dying as mentioned below

Also, I really think you'd love the live performance of Aftermath by Strapping Young Lad. Devin is hilarious in it and it's as heavy as this song was. It's here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btF4ftKQ0dnao4E.html

Explosia dude..!!! Shit is fucking amazing..!!!

Gojira - The Art of Dying. If you want an intense musical journey, this is your chance! :)

FLYING WHALES!!!!

React to " The art of dying " brutal, yet very beautiful song. Gojira is something special.

Should do Gojira Explosia. All showing off their mad skills and takes you on a nice journey

Art of Dying, Mouth of Kala, Wolf down the Earth, have somewhat the same intensity. If you want something more heavy check out Meshuggah - Bleed

Flying Whales Please!!!

The art of dying!

How is that apple magic mouse? I don't own a mac but I just thought it was ugly and not worth the price but I haven't used it so

Hello Jim, Recommendation: The Butterfly Effect- Always

Great stuff! How about reacting to Cult of Luna & Julie Christmas- Chevron. Official video is good

Gojira- Vacuity please!!

Art of Dying" live at Vieilles Charrues ;-)

Try some gorguts. Colored Sands, An Ocean of Wisdom Le Toit Du Monde. or Earthy Love

You might be ready for Flying Whales (live at Brixton if you please)

Fucking hell is right mate.

Since you liked this and devin Townsend. It's only fitting that you listen to Blood and Salt that has both of them.

G'gyra!

"Jack Luminous"-- Voivod

Toxic Garbage Island, Orborous, art of dying, gift of guilt, wolf down the earth

Don't get me wrong I think Global Warming slaps, but half the songs on that album alone are better than it. It was certainly a weird place to start with Gojira. Glad you like this though, try Art of Dying next.

Gojira - The Art of Dying!

You gotta check out the gift of guilt

Can you PLEASE do Three Days by Janes Addiction. Thanks.

That intro reminded me of Lamb of God o.O I have to say... iiii... dont like this xD not my kind of music. but good Video :) If you want to check out something hardcore-ish you might like "Overlord" by "Lamb of God" which is untypical for the Band but pretty interesting And before anyone gets offended... i dont like it but i do NOT say that its bad. its good Music, well made with talent in it. Just not my style :D

Apologise because you reacted to a song. Then said that you didn’t like it is absolutely pathetic.

Also, the correct pronunciation is Go-jee-ra, or Go-jhee-ra, you barely even say the J :)

This video has a 100% like dislike ratio

Art of dying. Try figuring out the intro! ;)
