NEW Gojira just killing it.

[messenger]

Nope

 

[Oblivion DC]

That's so different from what I've come to expect from them but I definitely like it.

 

[cecilbag]

I liked what I've heard thus far.

 

[Pushead]

This new album will definitely be decisive among fans, but I'm digging what I've heard so far.

 

[maddnotez]

That's not Gojira

 

[Beyond Black]

I like that tune better than "Stranded", but neither one of them is really making me hard. I hope the rest of the album is a helluva lot more interesting AND heavier.

 

[severinsteel]

I'm a big fan, and nothing off the new album has excited me.

There is also this off the new album :

This is a lot better but still..... damnit, I hate when bands do this. Lol

I know what they're doing and hey maybe it will work for them.

This song I thought was good, If this was just a completely different band I may have a different view though.

I will say the production and guitar tone is completely amazing. Do you know what they recorded with?

I've not heard any of their other songs. Made it 1/2 through this one. The main riff is real cool. The vocal arrangement could not have been more dull or boring. No hook at all.

EDIT: made it through the second one. Not really my thing, I guess. But it was produced well and they did a good job for what I assume that genre is. Reminds me a bit of what I remember of Opeth years ago, but more straight forward.

I have seen them multiple times since From Mars to Sirius. At least a couple of times each tour. Ever since they switched to the torpedo live, I have not enjoyed their live performances. The last time I saw them was opening up for Metallica in Quebec City in 2015 and they did not receive a good audience reaction. The audience was not into it at all.

These 3 songs so far do not inspire much confidence unfortunately. They seem, for lack of a better word, boring. I guess I give them credit for trying something new, but I wonder if a new band would break through on the strength of this material. I'll still see them when they come around but I am less enthusiastic each time, much like Lamb of God.

im a big fan, and I think its all great new stuff. Im happy to see some clean vocals this time around.

I dig it all too. Old and new still killin it.

 

[prsplayer86]

Reminds of ghost. I dig it!

 

[tfridgen]

Love it! Silvera is my favourite so far.

I just saw them on tour with Mastodon and they KILLED it.
Sounded IMMENSELY better than Mastodon.

Agreed. Gojira are a wrecking ball live, and they blew Mastodon off the stage. I'll have to hear this new album in it's entirety a few times before being too judgemental.

 

[madrigal77]

It's an album that's going to take a while to digest. Low Lands has a bit of an AIC vibe going on. Still some really heavy stuff though so Don't worry about that.

 

[RockyStar]

The new record is great in my book....different? Yes...but great nevertheless. Big fan of Gojira and the new record goes a simpler route and shorter songs etc but it is still very cool. I liked it first listen and like it more and more as time goes on. I highly recommend it.

 

[nigelpkay]

It's one of the bands I really WANT to like, but just can't get into.
Songs never seem to go anywhere for me and never remember them afterwards.

 

[severinsteel]

Listened to the whole album... I don't like to judge until I've really listened to an album a bunch, but wow, they phoned it in on this one. Granted, it's my first impression, but I'm pretty bummed.

 

[GOHOINC]

Never could get into them but recent caught onto a sight to behold. Great track. The new record tracks sound more like what i could get into. Its mostly the constant scream that is killing the older stuff for me.

 

[BYTOR]

Stranded & Silvera are very strong........haven't listened to The Shooting Star yet.

Fuck those who want a band to record the same type of song in the same style over & over........that gets boring as fuck for both the band & listener.
