The pronunciation of the bands name.
Godzilla by a Japanese person.
my guy, you gotta do "where dragons dwell" from this band.
@AndrewRooneyDrums, you should look up the lyrics for their songs. They're substantial and not fluff.
Believe it or not, a lot of Gojira songs are actually about climate change, the environment, save the whales and stuff. lol
That's incredible!
Most metal people I know are very aware of all this stuff. Usually very nice people and always keep it real
@@pek7629 So true dude! Most true Death Metal fans across just want the death of the kind of people that would trash the planet, live like robot consumers, embrace big corp and are just bigots. The kinda rules out most of the population so it seems we're angry people haha. Who wouldn't be in a world like this though, right?
@@AndrewRooneyDrums you should listen to Architects UK.
@@jonweber.8.756 no. Death metal fans do not want the death of anyone and we don't all converge on the same political ideals.
@@jonweber.8.756 my career is in petroleum. I love the planet but I also love all genre's of metal. So not everyone that's a "true metal fan" are of the same leaf. But "bigot me" respects your opinion. Can't judge a book by its cover bro 🤙
One of the most loved bands in all of metal to this day. I have never heard anyone say anything bad about Gojira, not even from metal "elitists" and that is as rare as a one legged unicorn with an eye patch and scottish accent singing John Farnham songs under a christmas tree in july.
lol XD that's too precise of an example.
Because nobody fucks with Gojira lol
HAHAHA
Yup! HAHA
I wouldn't Landon!
The Mario cocktail : Bionic legs, unstoppable power, flawless grooves and big lack of a t-shirt
HAHA Pierre!
Mario doesn’t own any shirts. It’s a law.
"a new band to me"
3 seconds later
"I think I like them"
Yep, that's Gojira!
First like, imma listen to this song, and then you finish with more than 30 songs in your personal music list
I bought From Mars To Sirius when it came out, it took me a few listen thrus to eventually love them. That album was my soundtrack through high school and still listen to them now.
Love them Flying Whales 🐋 🌑
Gojira is my favorite band but it took me many months to like more than Flying Whales. The pick scrapes put me off
He said "I think I'm starting to like this stuff" referring to the genre not the band specifically.
On the "growling spectrum", Gojira are actually one of the band one can understand the most. It just takes a bit of getting used to it and you are able to understand a bit.
Yeah and this particular live Joe wasn't as intelligible as most of the other lives they have, at least from what I've heard so far, Garorock 2009 u can understand everything he screams.
Yeah, english isn't even my first language but i can understand most of the lyrics
@@mattiatosi8350 Same here, and I think part of it might be that it isn't Joes first language either. Same with bands like Opeth, Satyricon, Vader or Behemoth.
Mastodon is also very good. Touring together 23
Joe's vocals aren't as harsh these days
the opening humming always gives me goosebumps knowing that how hard this song will be
I love that!!
Hell yeah! This song is always on repeat on leg day lol
The idea isn't to know what he's saying, it's to feel what he's saying.
underrated comment
And i feel sick! Sounds like shit to me!
@@Bolln4791 Nobody cares. Don’t listen to it then
Very powerful comment dude
Totally. And it is a barrier indeed. You got to get into it and dig for Metal to reward you with all it’s blessing.
Gojira are without a doubt the most impressive live band I’ve ever seen. No contest
Jinjer flattens them live. So does Meshuggah. That being said, Gojira is most definitely in the top 3
After watching both gojira and Rammstein live i can say rammstein by far is the most impressive show ive ever seen
Gojira is definitely up there for me as well. Lamb of God was pretty awesome live, also. RATM was probably my favorite show, purely because of the energy and the constant party. SOAD, too. I wanna see a show now...
BFMV is pretty good too. The Wacken 2018 live is awesome
Cannibal Corpse are beasts live as well
As a metal guy, Mario Duplantier is probably my favourite drummer right now. The groove... and also, I love the parts where it sounds like his arms & torso seem to be in some kind of slow, groovy, laid back place and his feet are just going crazy, like it's two completely separate drummers.
More Mario on the way Argal!
Heaviest Matter of the Universe
Flying Whales
Another World
Where Dragons Dwell (Hellfest 2013)
Global Warming (Live at the Silver Cord Studio)
Of Blood and Salt
L'Enfant Sauvage
The Gift of Guilt
Enjoy the Gojira rabbit hole.
Thanks James!
L’enfant sauvage (this is one of their best)
Love (the first song I heard from gojira. Really heavy. Excellent)
@@AndrewRooneyDrums
I'd like to add Toxic Garbage Island (Live at Vieilles Charrues Festival 2010) ! hecking powerfull.
What about oroborus, silvera, vacuity, esoteric surgery.
From the sky, backbone
I like Mario's playing in that there never seems to be any flash for the sake of it. The band really plays for the songs.
That's a great description of a great drummer!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums that's a great response to a great description of a great drummer
They're all about rhythm and flow. Consistent, droning, sometimes uncomfortable. It's part of the message.
Actually the thing i like the most about them is their patience.. They are one of the few modern bands who really take their time!
I wonder how many bass drum pedals Mario goes through on a given night
This entire song, lyrically is a friggin Goldmine. I mean you can snip just about any line and be floored by it. "I won't take no possessions in the afterlife, I would rather travel light."
"I haven't slept in a long time" "Art of Dying, is the way to let all go". Seriously beautifully written.
For real dude 🤘
the energy, the passion and the epilepsy
Gojira are so unique, there are so many songs to recommend. The reason btw why the fans aren’t metal stereotypes is because this usually is a festival for other genres, and i think it’s one of the first metal bands to play that festival, it’s in France btw. Mario is an absolute monster. They become less and less ‘heavy’ if you compare it to the early stuff. It’s more ambient-like, a bit more accessible. If you want pure good metal, with crazy energy, check out anything off of the link alive concert in 2003. Other recommendations to start with are Toxic garbage island, ocean planet live at Rio, gift of guilt brixton academy and so on. Would love to see a reaction of remembrance at the link alive and ocean planet at Rio. New sub here, keep the reactions of Gojira coming! Cheers
Sounds great! Thank you :)
The groove at the end of this song is amazing
The lyrics barrier thing has always been so stupid to me (no offence intended, i love your vids man😂): I wasnt born a native english speaker. Was i supposed to not listen or try to appreciate all foreign music cause i didnt understand the meanings of the words? Read them once and they will stick with you. Even in clean vocal songs you can often not pick up what is being said. And by the way its surprising how good some pronounce words while screaming... That said, heres my take on the growls; they grow on you like the music does. Theres something so primordial, so intimate and so emotional about them. They give power to real strong emotions in real life as in music. The weight of the words wouldnt be the same if they werent screamed like this... "I wont bring no material in the afterlife, take no possessions, i would rather travel light". Its power, its relatable. I find that most people dont like them for the aggressive nature: what they dont get is that the aggression isnt towards them, its them. This said, Gojira are one of the best out there, youre in for a treat! Hope the insight helps anybody, love yall
It's not a lyrics barrier. It's a vocal style barrier.
Not saying it's bad. Just not what I'm used to.
But I get your point Matteo!
wow this might be one of the truest and most thoughtful comments i have ever read on youtube. a true rarity. cheers man!
That's what I always say when I try to introduce someone to Gojira. Gojira is not an ordinary extreme band, the "desperation" in the vocals is part of the narrative, but I understand how can sound weird to people outside of metal.
This! That was a great way to put it. Well done.
when i first starting getting into metal a branched over from rock and hard rock so i was attracted to those vocal styles but as i bridged more and heard more i started getting into more clean and growl stuff if i was to map it out its kinda like, rock to hard rock to disturbed to bullet for my valentine then into trivium and so on as i started to build a warchest of bands i liked my styles got wider and bands i couldnt handle to begin with really started to gell with me i,e static x led to slipknot, trivium then melodic death metal and the development continues i now listen to a wide range of styles and im still learning and appreciating them, love the vids mate hope you get to some parkway drive , amity affliction, butterfly effect and universum being bands from down under
The Art of Dying is the story of a man grappling with how to die with honor. It's detailing how he will "bring no material to the afterlife, take no possessions I would rather travel light".
Gojira's lyricism is pretty fucking nuts dude. Other dominant lyrical themes are astral projection, space, existentialism and climate change.
WOW!
yeah very much a kind of classical stoic idea. great premise for a song.
More like transcendentalism but yea sure
I always get such King Solomon's Mines vibes from this song. Especially that beginning🔥If you've ever read the book, recall part in it about the Last Stand Of The Greys.
It's absurd how tight these guys play live
~"Breathing slowly, mechanical heartbeat
Losing contact with the living
Almighty TV plugged, hybrid empty brain
Don't see anything real in the game
The tension is building constantly
No reason just a reflex I have, driven by clockwork
I try to keep an eye open
And I realize I haven't closed my eyes in a long time
Neglected emotions leading to catastrophic voyage on the other side
I have been given so much stress and lack of confidence
I've been given the gift of so small hope deep inside
I haven't close my eyes in a long time, I am trying
I cannot stomach these forms and colors anymore
But I'm here to continue, after all I have been through
I try to keep my eyes open, I am realizing
This life and death more precious than anything
I won't bring no material in the after life
Take no possessions, I would rather travel light
I'm of this kind that kills all day
But I don't know yet how to die
Art of dying is the way to let all go
Within I practice, in the secret of my soul
My shape in the reflector has
Now for ever, a life on it's own"~
I know the lyrics by heart but i can't help hearing "mechanical armpit" when I listen to the song 🤣
@@SockerConny80 I always hear “I want Pringle” during the “I won’t bring no material”
@@popoguy7287 lmao 😂🤣
i think the vocal barrier is really weird especially with Gojira because i feel that now especially joe is very clear and he is so unique with the way that he hits the notes with his 'shout' sooo bloody well.
The coolest death metal in town, such a positive band.
That's awesome
You mean the coolest "Life Metal" band in town.
2:53 Joe, the singer, says 'La Bretagne, on veut voir les mains dans les airs !' (Brittany, we wanna see your hands in the air!) Brittany is the region where this live took place (Carhaix, Vieilles Charrues festival).
Nice to see a honest guy going from “I’m skeptical” to “ WOW”...
So glad that even being out of your comfort zone, you keep on trying and trying and analysing our music, mr. Rooney. I can also notice you even appreciate and notice the value on the energy, stamina and skills on these musicians. I know that deep down, there is a crazy metal head and we'll convert you into the dark side by end of 2020. This has to be the year!!
Out of the comfort zone is the best place to be Dani!
The rest is waiting
Gojira is like an addictive drug, when U start to listen them, it's mpossible to stop.
For me the best band live ever.
try to react to remenbrance live or toxic garbage island live.
🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🤘
Great reaction man, love Gojira. They were the band that got me into screaming vocals actually....on the recordings especially Joe has an incredible ability to scream melodically and it fits with the music so well.
Their live version of Pray at Red Rocks is incredible and vocals are less harsh...think you'd like it even more.
That's awesome. Thanks Daniel!
Mario is such a great drummer and he hits the drums like they owe him money
Joe and Mario duplantier are brothers..they even interchange drums and guitars during live shows.. have experienced live myself..and it's 🤘🤘🤘
Seeing Gojira live for the first time today! This was a great watch
Hope you enjoyed it!
A lot of what metal bands lyrical themes are about the stuff no one talks about,stuff thsts taboo, environmental warnings spiritual enlightenment, alternative realities, real life experiences and a fuck ton more. People get turned off by the " screaming" and cant understand the lyrics but it's not supposed to be easily interpreted. It's something you have to feel. The vocals become an instrument of great intensity, to make you feel the emotion the seriousness of what is being said. Your soul understands subliminally and later you'll be urged to look up the lyrics so you can later recite them. That's why I love metal, its something to embrace for it's dark beauty and interp it how you feel it needs to be!
"The vocal is such a barrier, its hard to know what they're saying".. that's why we metalheads read the lyrics along. Hey, it's a good thing...metalhead reads ahahha
HAHA! YESSSS
As a drummer that cut my teeth on extreme death metal back in the early 90’s… that’s exactly how I view extreme metal vocalists, as a percussive instrument. You hit it spot on with the passion. As nasty and forbidding as the music is, my eyes well up sometimes when the music and atmosphere overcome me. A misunderstood art form by a lot of people. I’m glad you’re breaking through the barriers. 🤘🤘
🙏
One of the most, if not THE most emotionally evocative group(s) ever.
Aural catharsis embodied.
The reason the crowd looked unmetal was that it was a French festival they were playing at which had a whole mixture of bands.
WOAH! Great info. Thanks so much!
I feel like most of people listening to metal starts with having hard times appreciating the vocals. But once you starts to accept it, you'll be able to appreciate it as it is and it's the best thing in the world.
It always pisses me off when people say that screaming isn’t talent. Really? Then go scream for 2 hours night after night and lmk how you feel lol
@@ambrooks5Plus, it even has certain techniques to be applied in order to do so without destroying your vocal chords. Thinking that screaming is just saying loud shit out of crazyness is nonsense
When you mentioned using the vocals as percussion the first thing that popped into my mind was devildriver who also has an amazing drummer crowns of creation, hardened, sin and sacrifice, pure sincerity all have great drum tracks
Thanks Terin. I'll look em up!
Gojira is amazing live. Mario is relentless on drums. Such power!!
I discovered and heavily listened to these guys studying for my boards, haha. It worked.
Seeing these guys live is incredible. Sounds better than the studio recording. I prefer listening to their live videos over the record.
That short haired bassist is the most animated of the group. He was abnormally calm in this video
If you write “Gojira The Art of Dying” into any search engine, you’ll have the answer to the lyrics immediately friend :)
This song explores the fact that we are killers by nature... but we have no idea how to die.
That's amazing!
There's also another interpretation where the song is about a person learning how to let go of his materialistic possession and desires to finally move to the next life
@@mrakasuryakusuma551 I can go for that too :)
It’s crazy to think in 2012 they were first band to play at knotfest and now they are bringing in huge crowds. I’ve seen them 3 times and it feels like they get more intense each time 🤘🏻
the beauty is the passion in the delivery of the lyrics. the heavier the growl, the better for me. I can always look up what they are saying but the growl or scream gives me goosebumps
Gojira is the original japanese word for 'Godzilla'. Gojira were a pure technical death metal band for the first two albums, then went a mix of tech death and progressive (prog) death and then transitioned into progressive metal with some death metal elements.
Great info Omkar. Thank you
You're the most genuine drum reaction channel I know and one of the only ones I watch nowadays. Every time we throw something extremely heavy at you, you seem to "get" why we like it, see why it's good, and light up in the most delightful way.
Thanks for the great comment!
I have nothing to say that people haven't already pointed out but seeing how open minded you are to the genre really made me happy, cheers man!
Highly recommend The Heaviest Matter in the Universe. It's about someone having an outer body experience (astral journal, sleep paralysis) and he's flying through space, through the dark and cold of the vast nothingness only to find that at the core of the universe there is one thing (presumable the heaviest matter of the universe): love.
n4rf thank you for saying it. It’s an incredible message.
The drummer and bass player in my eyes. They are the best in the world does 2 never miss a beat always on point
I was blown away the first time I saw them, too. They are incredible!
"I think I'm starting to like this stuff." Man, you've been smiling and having a great time with metal for so long. I'm so happy to hear you finally say that out loud. The best way the vocals have been explained to me and how I've explained them to other folks is to think of it strictly as an instrument that makes a sound. Sometimes it acts as a harmony, sometimes as a lead, sometimes as none of the above. Listen to a song two or three times until you can follow along, not with the words, with the sounds and you'll appreciate it a lot more. Find the linear notes online or something later on. Love your videos, please keep them coming.
This specific video is what got me to love gojira. When the chorus comes in it blew me away, completely. Been fan since that moment :D
That's amazing!!
I had this barrier for a long time as well. Just recently got over it.
Yup. I'm getting there!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums this song is probably the worst for you to listen to if you have that barrier. It’s off of their heaviest, most scream intense album
It's real cool to see you get more and more into metal, it's definitely an abrasive and intimidating genre but it has so much to offer.
100%
I can’t get enough of it! 🤘
Saw these guys at a fairly small venue close to my hometown, mind blowing! Spot on, incredible musicians!
Hey man thanks for checking this one out! One of my favorites by Gojira for sure. Great video.
Thank you!
such a dynamic, complex and powerful song. one of my all time favorites!
sure is!
I’m 2008 my iTunes suggest a song called “the way of all flesh” by a band I’d never heard of. I downloaded it. Loved it. Bought their whole collection. They’ve been my favorite band ever since!
Mario is the best metal drummer alive.
You should totally react to Mario Duplantier’s drum solo
I've done 3 of them!
Your reactions are always genuine and insightful, good job! With the vocal delivery barrier I fully understand, I used to be pretty opposed to a lot of the growling in death metal and such and although I enjoyed the music it made it difficult for me to enjoy. I’ve since become a lot more familiar with metal in general and at this point I really enjoy a lot of growling and screaming (gojiras style of vocal delivery is one of my favorite along with acid bath). If you continue listening to the more extreme metal side of thing you’ll most likely naturally come to enjoy it.
Yup definitely Johnny!
It's just an acquired taste. I do my best to keep my mind open :)
I appreciate a good "it's guys here"
I so glad your sharing this experience with your snare 🥁🥁🥁
Would be rude not to! HAHA
Seeing you appreciate some of my favourite bands makes me remember Bill Burr reacting to walking into a Meahuggah concert and trying to explain it. That brings me great joy.
First song I heard from Gojira years ago and hooked ever since.
Seeing them live for the first time with Mastodon in August, going to be absolutely bonkers.
Love their Music Energy and Message JUST AMAZING!\m/
TOTALLY OUTSTANDING LIVE!
I've seen them live once and they are really good performing live. The drummer does stand out from a crowd of drummers!
Man! I was here when you first posted your 30 days to better singles on Reddit years ago. Great to see that your channel has grown so much! Cheers from Canada, Andrew!
WOAH! Thanks so much!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Soooo excited to see this!!!!!
Hope you like it!
This band is pretty amazing : the lyrics aren't simple (example : I love Slayer, but could write something Kerry King-esque in 5 minutes), they are tigher live than any band I've ever seen, their talent is through the roof and they are probably the heaviest sounding band in history.
Try the in-studio performance of Global Warming. Unreal.
I love this reaction and the appreciation for the genre. Also, i watched a ton of your videos and this is the first time i realized you sound exactly like bluey's dad lol
Definetly check out one listen to the studio version of this song, the break down is like the most intense experience ever, I have a propensity to tear up.
mah man be turning into a metalhead, give it a couple of years :D
🤣🤘
Though I am not a death metal fan I absolutely love this band. I discovered them on youtube 5-6 years ago and have watched their popularity increase substantially throughout the world- they deserve it!
I saw them live with Behemoth back in ‘09. Show fucking ruled there was like maybe a total of 50 people there
You got that "groovy" right. I love their groovy, catchy and heavy sound
Mario’s double bass gas impressed the hell out of me since the first time I heard them. Like god damn how does he maintain that intensity and speed for so long??? 🤯🤯
Nice! I just found your channel and I am really enjoying the content. You probably had this planned already but I made 1 suggestion and you immediately done it. Makes me feel special :)
That's great Mark! Thanks for watching!!!
Gojira is my favorite super heavy group. Normally I’m not a fan of the growl vocals but the guitar on “Stranded” had me fascinated and then I really started to enjoy the song as well as “Silvera”. Now I totally on board with these guys. Was supposed to see them open for Deftones but Covid cancelled that show.
10:09 the shot of the crowd with not many wearing black is because "Vieilles Charrue" a French festival in Britanny is a mainstream Festival and Gojira are really popular in France among the casual rock fans.
That was maybe the heaviest 🔥Gojira🔥 performance ever..always get goosebumps while watching it‼️
Someone probably mentioned it before, but commenting on Mario's stamina. Apparently his daily thing is to do an hour straight of the double bass, going from 170 to 210 BPM.
Madness!
When it comes to the vocals, I noticed that it's becomes easier to understand the more you listen to metal. You can get used to understanding this.
I'll be seeing them at the Agora in Cleveland later this month. I think it will be interesting seeing them in a much smaller venue than something like in this video.
I love intimate venues
Mario posts yearly drum solos, they’re real showcases of his talent and rather unique techniques
I just saw gojira love for the first time 2 mo ths ago, it was amazing.
Mario Duplantier is an absolute beast of a drummer. He has the technical ability of Danny Carey. But he hits hard and has groove like Vinnie Paul. I would suggest checking out his yearly drum solo videos, even if you don't do reaction videos. They are amazing
Great reaction Roons. I am just getting into Gojira. It’s a song at a time proposition for those of us into their 40’s. 😀
I've heard he trains his legs on the double bass for a month or two before every tour. Where dragons dwell is like 10 minutes of constant hammering the bass drums
Mario Duplanteir is one of my favorite metal drummer.
You should check out his completely insane drumming on Gojiras song Remembrance. The outro part/breakdown is completly nuts!
The vocals vary immensely from song to song, check out Born In Winter, beautiful ambience!
There are torches to be passed in every genre. Gojira holds that torch now. They're the greatest most original refreshing metal band of this generation. Hands down.
Yeah love what I’ve heard
I fucking love this song so much, specially this live perform
Yup so good!
I've been meaning to check these guys out for a while, so I'm glad you are doing some of their stuff. I agree about the screaming or growling vocals. I grew up loving the metal of the 80's and 70's, but often find this style less accessible due to the vocals. Some bands make great use of this, such as System of a Down and Jinjer, but to rely on that 100% can be distracting unless you're in the right mood. I'd definitely like to see more from these guys. Cheers!
Cheers Matthew!
I would recommend listening to the album version of this song as some of Mario's amazing nuanced playing is buried in this live mix. He is truly one of the most creative and pocket players in all of metal. Check out some of his solo videos he's posted this year.
Esoteric Surgery for the next gojira reaction, from the same album.
Thanks Orion!
The entire album is amazing. Of course, that can be said about all of their albums i suppose.
@@JasonVorce it definitely can be, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
This particular song is about how in their eyes people are wasting time doing activities like watching TV, and they refer to these activities as the Art of Dying because it does not accomplish anything in our life except self-satisfaction.
Heavy!
Gojira is a metal band that all metal heads respect and non metal heads can find something they like in their music from what I’ve seen. They incorporate so much into how they craft a song , it’s always a good heavy hypnotic groove in there somewhere and the vocals aren’t extremely harsh though the can be , but usually they are aggressive yet understandable it was just this mix of live show.
Mario's a beast. He's old school and he's an absolute beast on those drums.
He is Sarah!
Not sure if you knew this but Gojira is from France and have gotten huge over the last few years especially!!
Takes me back to when i first discover the band... Watching your video with high amount of jealousy cause i could only wish that discover and be amazed that much again. But just watching it alone even gives me chills. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Loved your video. One last thing, please check "Born in Winter" by them if you haven't already and make sure that you're outside in a cold day when you listen it ;) .A shiver couldn't get this much exciting...
So glad you enjoyed the vid. I need to get back to more Gojira!
I've done a few vids on Mario now :)
Love the channel. Happy to see metal drummers get long overdue props.
Any vids of your material?
Hey Jason! Yup hundreds of vids of me on the channel man.
Maybe click the demos/covers playlist
Awesome. I will absolute search through the videos. Have a great one pal. Greetings from Canada!
:)
According to some metal drummers, this guy is the GOAT
Gojira is by far the best live band I've ever seen, blew me away each time
Yeah this is spectacular
