Im pretty sure he's a trained Jazz drummer and he practices for up to 4 hours a day, a month or two before starting a tour or album. And 2 hours of that is just practicing double bass.
FreddieMercuryFanFTW that's dedication. He's definitely fun to watch. Hope to see them live, one day. Had my tix to see them in SF with L.O.G. & Dethklok, back in 2012. However, Czech Republic authorities... had different ideas. I bitch & moan about the tour being cancelled, but my woes were nothing compared to what was going on in Mr. Blythe's world at the time. Not to mention, the family of the young man who perished. But, I digress. Gojira... you're still near the top of my bucket list!
Joep R probably one of the best metal drummer s ever ? i think so im a drummer/bassist so i should no his stuff is hard to play all i have to say makes joey from slipknot look like a joke no offense
Joep R Really good drummer. May I suggest, if you don't already know them, the italian band Novembre? For example the tracks Remorse, or Winter 1941. Another great drummer, imho.
AnthonY TenkkU uhhhhh no it is not lol. You're playing the same rhythms as the intro once the guitars come in and accent the begging of every note group. Trust me, it's fucking hard. It might appear to be straight eighth notes, but the accents make things incredibly difficult. Now I'll have to say, yes, the guitars and bass have it WAYYYY easier than the drummer. I won't deny that.
There is no metal song better than this. It is perfection from all angles. If you're a drummer If you're a guitarist If you're a bassist If you're a metal vocalist It checks all boxes. This is the best live metal performance in the history of mankind. Mario. Fking. Duplantier.
As a drummer watching this video of Mario's absolute dominance for the hundredth time, the only word that comes to mind is: thunderous. The tone, the method, the emotion he gets out of this performance, it truly is awe inspiring. There's times where it looks like he's shaking the cameras he's playing so hard yet he never gets sloppy for even a second. This is what metal is supposed to be.
How these guys play something this rhythmically complex and emotionally intense without their brains melting out of their noses is absolutely beyond me.
I know! Holy Shit what did I just hear? I never listen to metal, don't hate, but kind of dismiss it like they do country music or bluegrass "Well, it all sounds kinda the same." Which is dumb (in both instances). But holy hell, I gotta hear this again. Wow. I found this because I looked at some drum videos, then Mario, then Gojira...and wow. The "rhymical complexity" is one thing but those guitars are freaking weapons of mass destruction.
i absolutely love how guttural and disgusting his voice sounds in this performance. their new music is fantastic but i wish joe would do more nasty lows like he does in this live show
This is literally the best song I've ever heard. I'm not exaggerating either. It has everything. It's pure and utter metal genius by 4 men who are musical legends
this was my first time listening to a gojira song. I am currently in my school library. I never knew such majestic music existed. God bless this band. I shall be listening to their discog tonight
Everyone's talking about Mario's drumming, but Joe's vocals in this live are out of this world, absolutely incredible. This is his heaviest voice at 2:48, or at 3:36. No shitty deathcore growl technique can match this. Pure evil and hatred, something sinistrous, end of the world, collapse of the mountains, heavy as oceans and my depression
well smart ass, every guttural vocal needs technique, otherwise it will fuck your throat and vocal cords up. It is not "pure evil hatred anger". I agree with you, it was absolutely incredible, but needs to be pointed that the vocal around 5:00 were shitty. If you don't like deathcore, it is absolutely your business, but you don't have to call it shitty comparing to other vocalists that is specifically your personal taste, specially Joe in this one, being out of tune in the same 5:00. You don't need to love it, but recognize other bands talents and efforts to make the music they want/need to express themselves. Check Phil Bozeman out and come here and repeat that 'deathcore shitty growl technique' again, I dare you! xD
I liked because it's not a conventional death metal. This is diferent. Not repetitive. More 5 years Gojira is gonna be top 5 band in the world Gojira only grows stronger, heaviest and faster ! Wainting for the next album.
Gojira is the best band i have crossed in years, and they sound incredibly good live. All the members are talented, but the drums stole the show for me. It takes some time to get used to gojira's sound, but once you get you're addicted to them.
+pretendedgood In my experience with myself, people I know and people I've met at shows, once you see them live you like them. No videos do them justice, there's just such intensity seeing them live. Best live metal band I've ever seen.
Well, once again whilst listening to the metal my speakers have sucked me into another realm where the whales fly and all the cosmic forces are colliding. Thanks Gorjia. :D
That just made me sad. Whenever i think i heard a lot of Gojira i remember i'll never find a band that's anything like them. Be moderate in your listening to Gojira,basking in the unmatched beauty and uniqueness of theirs will last longer.
The way it hit's my brain, I can't describe it.. - I'll attempt to: Listen to the song 20 times, so you anticipate the melodies, memorize the lyrics, then don't listen to the song for about a month (if you can last that long). Come back listen to it again, then sing it with every passion in your body and let the volume be a comfortable degree of 'loud'. The passion you feel singing it and jamming it.. ugh.. It's such a good feeling. That feeling is dripping off me at the moment and I love every second.
This song more than any other pushed me to finally take the leap, buy a drum kit and learn to play. Long road ahead, but one day I'll cover this song :)
Fuck yes! I have been a fan for years, but I saw them for my first time in October. Now I'm completely obsessed!! Will go out of my way to see them play live again!
I’ve seen a lot of band live, Tool, Slipknot, RATM, and I can confidently say the only band to match up to this level of sheer awesomeness live is Meshuggah
i am a relatively new gojira fan but there is a special story about this song.. i was on vacation when a friend played this song for the first time. it went straight to my heart and i got goose bumps even on my head. i didn't knew that my grandmother was in fact dying in that very moment... RIP... it gives me chills every times i listen to that masterpiece
Cameron Porter favorite song I can't really decide because there's too many great ones. But favorite album would have to be la enfant sauvage. Second favorite the way of all flesh definitely. Love gojira till I die!! \m/

Fucking incredible band.. Ive never seen a greater metal performance than this one before. Im not too much into metal but this kind of songs make want to be.
If you're beginning with Gojira, you're starting off with some of the best modern metal there is. You won't find many bands out there that put their heart and soul into music like these guys.
+kingadalou Wut? Are you honestly putting Gojira together with Slipknot? You have to be fucking delusional. They're not even in the same fucking planet. I mean, Spliknot is ok if you're a 14 year old emo kid with identity issues, but Gojira is real fucking metal.
@@aaronclark5485 dude What does he say in this part because it does not sound like the lyrics "I can not stomach these forms and colours anymore but I'm here to continue after all I have been through" I mean it sounds like it in certain parts but not totally same
saw them live at Werchter Boutique (Belgium), they had to play in the afternoon, just a few hours before Metallica. When I came home I ordered all the CD's of Gojira and kind of forgot how Metallica performed. I don't want to diss Metallica, the Gojira-gig was just so energetic! I was blown away!
what a progressive band, just when you thought they couldnt get any heavier after the second bridge after the calm part, 4:47 mario goes full death metal and blast beats. holy shit
I listened to this song several times before I was going to get in the surgery. It wasn´t something too important neither my life was in danger, but I needed the strenght to do it. Thank you Gojira for your music! You also are helping to motivate me since I started the law school, sometimes specially when you're through a quarantine you need the energy to comeback to your body and spirit.
Every once in a great while, regardless of genre, you come across a band/artist that just completely floors you and reminds you of all that you loved about a genre to begin with. Gojira did that for me. My hat's off. Fucking immaculate.
I’ll be honest, I just recently got into gojira and I’m really pissed at myself for sleeping on them for so long. They’re so unique and amazing. I can’t get enough!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
You think that’s bad? Try going to a concert where they performed and you had no idea who they were :/ Happened to me recently at Knotfest, they performed and I was oblivious of their talent. I now hate myself knowing what I did
I stumbled across this band les than a year ago. Im quite happy about that because all of their albums are new to me and I dont have to wait several years between them before waiting impatiently for the next. This freaking amazing. Theyre definately one of my top five metal bands. excellent metal musicianship. Cant wait to catch this band live. ill travel anywhere to check these guys out.
Proud to be a fan many many many years. To see all these people discovering Gojira today and realizing their brilliance is simply amazing. Gojira is always in my top 5.
It can’t be just me who gets goosebumps listening to this masterpiece after a while. I also start to tear up at how beautiful and well put together it is.

Nah he's thin like a twig
Maybe he's the Roman Heracles/Hercules.
He actually has the body type of one of those naked women on a renaissance painting! Still badass tho.
Actually the heaviest drummers around aren't necessarily muscular at all. It's all about relaxation and agility. Drummers know this.

Lyrics for your reading pleasure:
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

SAME
Why did I not know this band until 5 minutes ago?
Have fun digging through their discog, they're amazing.
You'll get to hear their songs for the first time. Lucky bastard.
Have fun going through their stuff. I'd suggest listening to From Mars to Sirius and L'Enfant Sauvage first, then Magma and The Way of All Flesh.
Roderick Usher Never listened to it.
Enjoy it... amazing band
This song in a tiny indoor venue like the "Phoenix" in Toronto will have your insides rolling on the floor. Tested and proven by me.
Alkalilee seen these guys and mastodon at sound academy in toronto.... fucking amazing absolutely love gojira
Ya I saw them with Mastodon at the Roseland in PDX, can confirm felt like being disemboweled by sound. Good show \m/
saw them live at Werchter Boutique (Belgium), they had to play in the afternoon, just a few hours before Metallica. When I came home I ordered all the CD's of Gojira and kind of forgot how Metallica performed. I don't want to diss Metallica, the Gojira-gig was just so energetic! I was blown away!
Aha, got my ticket for GMM, 28th of June I'll be seeing them blow the crowd away once again! :D
I didn't even realised How good the line up was that Day. Never heard one Gojira songs. Now I saw them 3 times
Werchter Boutique was my first Gojira show and i've been a fan since that day. They were the best band that day!
Mario always looks like he fights for his life against the drums
The drums fight for their life
still one of the best live performances iv seen
his low growls live sound fucking inhuman
This song is brutal as fuck
Gojira and Opeth the 2 best bands in the world today.
+amsedelm opeth use to be good
+Todd Daniel they are still good, they just changed their sound to a more prog rock
Nicklas Gray true but i just think its as good as the old stuff. and Martin lopez is my favorite drummer so that probably has a lot to do with it
+amsedelm
Didn't you just forget Sabaton, for example ?
+amsedelm Be'lakor is doing some very nice work, upcoming album seems nice too...
what a progressive band, just when you thought they couldnt get any heavier after the second bridge after the calm part, 4:47 mario goes full death metal and blast beats. holy shit
I listened to this song several times before I was going to get in the surgery. It wasn´t something too important neither my life was in danger, but I needed the strenght to do it.
Thank you Gojira for your music! You also are helping to motivate me since I started the law school, sometimes specially when you're through a quarantine you need the energy to comeback to your body and spirit.
This is very impressive. I'm obsessed with this song.
Elizabeth Darski you are hot, just like this song!
@@Fastotec9 ih ala kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
@@Fastotec9 cringe
@@Fastotec9 simp moment
Every once in a great while, regardless of genre, you come across a band/artist that just completely floors you and reminds you of all that you loved about a genre to begin with. Gojira did that for me. My hat's off. Fucking immaculate.
Sound Engineer : How can we test the capacity of our sound system ?
Gojira : Hold my beer
Damn this ride sounds perfect
wuhan 18'
what....? Zildjian 21" A Mega Bell Ride !
Christian Theen My bad, sorry
Yeah, Mario play trigged live ^^
Belette sauvage I don't think so ?
They literally represent perfection in this genre of music. Wish I could see them live...
TWOAF is a masterpiece of an album, and gojira are amazing live !
I wish they had shown Mario playing the intro.
Well, he hit a splash cymbal before that :D
Patrick M. lol
yeah but like the super mario bros mario
those guitars sound like a fucking war chant bro
Hands down the best live band on the planet. This is my all time favorite performance of this song and probably of them in general. Long live Gojira
Wife: what do you want
Joe : I want Pringles !!!
4:18
Hahahahaha
that final riff is so emotionally strong,damn,this band is amazing
Showed my friend this video, he loves it so much that he's shaking violently on the ground!
holy shit hahaha
Holy shit that was so heavy my beard grew a meter listening to it! Gotta check out this band \m/
Du har ikke skjegg, Espen..
har d no, etter denna sangen ;)
Ahhaha
5:44 onwards... Oh my god, such an incredibly atmospheric part.
this band kicks ass
Behold, the current pioneers of metal
Man, their live shows are fucking beast.
7:31 "joe, get back on stage"
WHY IS THIS SO FUNNY
This is one of the greatest performances i have ever seen. Thank you for posting it.
-love, from Kentucky
The smile of the bassist at 3:54 is priceless 🔥
best progression of gojira, best gojira song
To this day, Mario is still the best drummer I've ever witnessed live. I still felt his kicks in my chest days after the show.
Can we talk about how good the bassist is? Like, he's so fucking on point with Mario and his stage presence is second to none.
God, i love the ferocity with which Mario comes down on his drums at 5:56
Myles Kennedy from the band Alter Bridge brought me here. Saw him wearing a Gojira t-shirt and had to check em out. Glad I did!
This video made me burn a city down.
my bad.
Operaton Creation this would be top comment If your username was Neron 😂
Shoutout to whoever set the lights up, cuz that lighting (or lack thereof) on his face at 3:03 just adds to the sheer brutality of this.
Just here again for my daily listen
yup
I’ll be honest, I just recently got into gojira and I’m really pissed at myself for sleeping on them for so long. They’re so unique and amazing. I can’t get enough!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Jonah Scantlin We all did the same with some bands.
DjoZef so true.
You think that’s bad? Try going to a concert where they performed and you had no idea who they were :/
Happened to me recently at Knotfest, they performed and I was oblivious of their talent. I now hate myself knowing what I did
@@LuisReyes-hj6vi that's exactly how I got into Gojira. Saw em at Knotfest 2019 back in August
This is one of the most amazing live performances of any song, in any genre, in music history.
I stumbled across this band les than a year ago. Im quite happy about that because all of their albums are new to me and I dont have to wait several years between them before waiting impatiently for the next. This freaking amazing. Theyre definately one of my top five metal bands. excellent metal musicianship. Cant wait to catch this band live. ill travel anywhere to check these guys out.
Proud to be a fan many many many years. To see all these people discovering Gojira today and realizing their brilliance is simply amazing. Gojira is always in my top 5.
And this is the best song ever made, Gojira
The drummer is not human
+Darren Madden hey man, you should see tim yeung... he is crazier than mario (they both are monster, but tim is scarrier)
SO massive, the heat they put into their live performances often surpasses the tightness they do on the album
Listening to this with earphones in.... the guitarist, bassist and drummer are all fantastic!
I still can't believe they just straight up play THIS
Hey Lars - this is what it looks like when you PRACTICE. Good lord - this is as tight as the record.
when the sound of the band and singer in a live concert is better than the record in the studio you know you choose the right genre of music
It can’t be just me who gets goosebumps listening to this masterpiece after a while. I also start to tear up at how beautiful and well put together it is.
I can honestly say, this is the greatest song I’ve ever listened to in my 34 years on this planet!
