"Emotionally really into it" Joe has said in interviews they don't play Global Warming live because it's heavy emotionally and would be almost a set killer.

Easily one of the most emotional performances ever recorded.

The shoulder thing is probably a rhythmic thing,he’s getting into the music and feeling it.

Gojira is like Queen, it's emotionaly effective, it's seems easy but it's not,it's very well strutured to have maximum impact. Vocals are very expressive

I'm a simple man, I see Gojira, I press like.

Oh God, my Gojira boys

My favorite metal band!

Gojira's a bunch of fucking geniuses. The bassline being a preamble to the melody is such a cool touch I didn't notice before, but it really feels like it pulls you in to the track even more. It goes from being soft, to heavy, to just plain haunting in the end: super fitting for its name.

I honestly just think Joe is a performer. He makes things looks more intense than they are. I'm not sure obviously but he has always been all about putting on a show live. So my guess is his "strained" sections are similar to how Devin Townsend will make it looks more intense than the actual effort he is putting into it for theatrics.

It's so cool that we're getting more videos from a metal vocal coach that actually demonstrates the vocals instead of just talking about them.

"The lighting is gorgeous" Take some notes boys. Take some notes........your lighting......

I'm guessing the whole shoulder thing is more of a rhythmic thing, he really do be vibin doe

Oh man today i was just thinking about when you gonna analyse Joe's vocals and I became so happy when i saw this video :D Waiting for the vocal analyses of Luke Griffin from Acrania and other nasty slamming brutal shit. Love your content dude keep up the good work \m/

This video just made my day. All time favorite band!

16:48 wtf dude HAHA nasty

You got me curious, how about some older gojira, like Love? His vocals where a tad heavier back then

I saw Gojira a few weeks ago at the KnotFeSt Roadshow. They SLAYED and Joe's vocals were amazing. Thing is; he didn't go all out with the distortion, like he does on the record, or in recordings like this. Luckily, because of his vocal style and it always having a pitch with the distortion, he was able to simply sing and it still sounded very good. But, this led me to beleive that he actually does just belt his heart out when he's on-stage or in the recording booth. Raw emotion and the drive for a good performance fuel's that gorgeous voice of his. Unfortunately that means, after a long tour, it gets strained, and he can't layer on the distortion the same way. And that's why he sang for most of the set I saw them play, and only dirtied it up during parts that go really hard. That's my theory anyway. Sombody who knows vocals needs to sit down with him and have a talk sometime, get him to explain how he does things; because they sound so damn good

"If I was in the studio touching this guys neck, they'd call the cops" I just choked on that one. Good stuff man, I enjoy your jokes.

All time favorite band here. Mario is just a phenomenal machine.

I believe his breathing technique here (the jump in shoulders as he inhales) is a conscious decision related to the simultaneous guitar-playing.

I enjoy this so much, duuuuude

I've noticed it before too that a lot of Gojira's songs are super simple to play but they are powerful songs. Just goes to show that you don't need to do technical stuff for it to sound good or interesting.

Ok I gotta say it! Your guitarist friend is actually John Dolmayan from System of a Down, undercover

React to acrania disillusional of the discordant system and I’m the first comment let’s gooooooooooo

More Gojira songs to react to: Satan is a Lawyer Death of Me Where Dragons Dwell (live at Hellfest 2013) A Sight to Behold The Axe Stranded

About that outro thing and the crowd being quite. I saw them on Tijuana a year ago and when they played people were just sitting and standing there and I thought "maybe they don't know them" but as soon as the band asked for screams the crowd went crazy and as soon as Gojira ended like half of the crowd left. It amazed me and made me happy how we were all there just watching the amazing performance which is super weird for a metal band

That Louis Armstrong thing that was mentioned reminds me of the chorus of Dance of the Manatee by Fair to Midland, might be worth having a listen to that song to compare it if you haven't heard it. Definitely not something that you hear often. It feels to me like more of a compression on the vocal cords without being heavily distorted to create a scream sound. I do it when singing along to the song I mentioned, and it feels a lot different from screaming, it's not easy to maintain either. Would be interested in hearing your take on it.

I love that video because it's a live recording of them playing. There's a part where Joe gets the lyrics wrong - the first screaming bit, but he still delivers such a powerful performance.

Devin Townsend. Enough said.

Gojira !!!!! my fave band

Damn that gutteral was placed perfectly!!!

I love Kardashev ( The Almanach is awesome. Beyond Sun and Moon might just be your best song.) I want more or that duo thing. And I want an At the Gates one. Dude has to hurts his troath doing that.

I got to fly down for a trip to Washington from Alaska, to go to Knotfest this summer and these guys were insane live! I got chills like the whole damn time. I love this band! Lol

Holy crap. Thank you for teaching me the Beard Guttural technique. Pulling my cheeks out helped me summon the dark lord in my new song.

Fucking LOVE your channel. As a wanna be amateur metal singer this stuff is not just gold information but very interesting and entertaining.

I have been waiting for this for a very long time. Thank you!

That scream at 16:49 was perfect, and I wish it was in the song!!

I'd love to see you look at Marcus Bridge from Northlane, he's extremely talented and is a fantastic clean singer along with his distortion-oriented vocals. Keep up the great content, very much enjoying all of your videos.

Holy shit I'm just listening to the Almanac EP on bandcamp, Mark your vocals are sick! Brutal and beautiful. And sung safely of course ;)

A question: Is he using vocal fry when he screams?

Nico, aka John Dolmayan :D

React to the boys in Shrine Of Malice, Greg have them god tier pterodactyl highs!!

THE AGONIST - The Gift of Silence as a next suggestion, maybe it's time to some female vocalists?

22:10 I never really noticed that but using the bass to foreshadow the vocals is really cool for this song. Bass can really be the the one thing in a song that holds everything together. Can you imagine if it was just the vocals over the whirlwind of notes Gojira plays? The bass gives the melody something to grab onto and allows the song to groove. Thank you for pointing this out I dont think I would have ever caught that myself. Definently subscribing 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Great video. I'd love to see Devin Townsend Deadhead live in Plovdiv

Check out the Devin Townsend project or his strapping young lad stuff

Oh god I’m in love with the hideously blown out camera good vid tho :)

My suggestion would probably have to go to blackwind by drown in sulphur amazing vocals

Yo, how about some Black Crown Initiate? Both of those vocalists are stellar at what they do.

I’d suggest Clone or backbone for joes’ heavier vocals

YES

Please react to Acrania Disillusion in a Discordant System

Do some Opeth guys.....Burden or may be Dignity or may be Lovelorn Crime. Edit : now that i know that you are a deathcore singer, do their heavy gutteral songs too.

Bruh. That’s exactly what makes Gojira so great. The chorus riff to THIS song of all songs takes you to some black metal vocals (wtf ever I don’t listen to metal by sub genre) when the closest they ever were to that was their Godzilla, pre-Gojira days. Anyways, point is they create that atmosphere that takes you into a-whole-nother form of metal. They have that heaviness. Blast beats, groove, that slow chugging type shit, speed, name it. They can integrate traits from throughout the metal spectrum. I found it funny you hear guttural low over the chorus riff for THIS emotional yet still heavy song. Parallel Shift, Natural Selection, Inadequate - Rings of Saturn

Jinjer - Pisces

KardaVox and Kardashev did a crossover episode?!?! Holy shit

If you do Gojira again, react to anything from their 2009 shows (Garorock, Rock School Bordeaux, etc). Joe's vocals sadly have taken a toll through time, and even if he does still sound really really good, his peak (IMO) was around those years, and his vocals are really something to behold in those shows.

tbh what makes joe’s vocals so magic is that he’s gotten the professional training so he knows how to do it without getting hurt but can hit the raw emotional power associated with no technique at all

now you have introduced guitar posture into the equastion of vocal posture as well! a balance seek you must hmmm! makes it much harder I imagine to always keep your placements and posture perfect always!

YAAAAAS

Très cool. Intéressant. Fun laugh of the guitarist and beautiful voice of the vocal coach, awesome skills. I hope that you'll do another Gogira review in the future. The song 'born in a winter' is in a very different style vocally, very interesting. ''low lands'' is interesting too. Stranded, silvera. The gift of guilt live at brixton academy, flying whales live crazy, the heaviest matter of the universe at hellfest.

I love it

Travis Ryan, cattle decapitation

You should watch The Way Of All Flesh at Garorock 2009. I don't think Joe's vocals have ever sounded better.

Holy shit I listened to your band on bandcamp and the EP was incredible. Do you guys plan to release another full-length anytime soon?

Vocal endurance with a lot of guitar work would definitely bring Children of Bodom's Alexi Laiho to mind.

Please do Black Tongue, any song off Nadir

Some of these yells have a Jonathan David like sound. Love it.

Been trying to make a playlist on Spotify of "melodic harsh/scream vocals." Gojira is one of the only bands that do it, which trying to think if Crowbar does it, or if Kirk only has a rhaspy voice.

I saw them play this like, it was fuckin crazy

I'd love to see a reaction to Within Destruction - Human Defect ft Dickie, or Alkaloid - Cthulhu, the vocalist does an almost throat singing effect in it.

How can a song be so good?

Silvera by gojira is worth a reaction, top tier band. They have some heavy vocals here and there, especially songs like From the sky. Girls running through the forest from people in black cloaks, not talking about Deadlock's remake of Awakened by sirens? lol (after their lead vocalist left)

I saw someone else mentioned them too, but please do a breakdown of Luke Griffin from Acrania. Could do The Face Of Humanity from their new EP

Greatest band alive, fuckin try me

@16:51 Your friend's reaction there brings me life

They have stated this is a difficult song live and rarely do it, so that could be part of it. Can't argue with the results though!

If you want a cool Live Session, check out Trivium (live in chapman studios) - Down from the Sky. This wasn't long before the lead singer blew his voice out, and you can sorta hearwhy :)

It's cool that you do a reaction with the drummer from System Of A Down .

10:58 Palaye royale -mad world

Hey man I love how your break vocals down and explain it all etc.... any chance have you done any reviews of shrine of malice he has a strange high pitched sqeal in his highs I’ve never heard before and he’s young as fuck

Gurl running from wolves and people in black cloaks? Did you guys watch the Vacuity video?

love this song.

Greatest band alive

Great value john dolmayan

Could be the concentration at same time is singin with the guitar tapping could be more difficult to take the whole control of the relaxation at upper section because guitar is a quite heavy

I’m a little upset joe didn’t do his actual like low lows in their recording like he does in the song

0:01 Rob Scallon

Big pog

Ultar. Father Dagon, Beyond the Wall of Sleep PLEASE!!!!!!!

Greg Gilbert from shrine of malice! song Hollow sockets

Checkout Spiritbox- "The Mara Effect" live studio video. Real nice vibe like this one.

They don't play this live :(

Yeah, but I don't have FB, won't make one and I'm still trying to see ya check out Thy Art Is Murder "They Will Know Another". Frfr

Flying Whales live 2006

Dude on the right kinda looks like the drummer from soad Also, 12:19 WHALEES

4:23 Behemoth XD

Have you ever done a reaction video to Tenacious D? Jack Black......he is good, id like to see you do a video for them

React to ENDON's "Your Ghost Is Dead" A Japanese experimental noisegrind band produced by Kurt Ballou of Converge. I don't really know what to say to convince you to react to them but THE VOCALIST...just...please. You WILL NOT be disappointed.

Not gonna lie, your videos are some of the best videos out there for metal vocals. You mentioned vocal compression in your "let's do low vocals" video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8tnecKqzsW7f5s.html 7:57ish) and I was wondering if you could cover that in a future video (unless you already have and I'm a dumbass). Black tongue's vocalist alex teyen had some good vocal compression from what I can tell, I'd recommend coma or second death. Either way, your videos are super helpful and I'm really glad you exist.
