I saw them while on tour for this album, and they blew Lamb of God out of the fucking building. My buddies and I were looking at each other in absolute disbelief.….then we hit the pit!
Yeah! I was actually thinking about that. They're like the Rush of metal: You listen to the records and you fucking love them, but to see the real power this band displays you absolutely need to see them live.
The fact that Mario doesn't use triggers on his kicks with this music is absolutely incredible. Especially since he just uses straight kicks for all his fast work. Not double strokes, heel toe, swivel, etc. The dude is a machine.
@@jez_77 Every drummer in a large metal band no matter how much they deny it, uses software and triggers to some extent. Metal has gotten way too loud, staccato, and way too compressed for drummers to contistently kick with max-power on every bass note for 9 month to year-long tours at this point.

Need me some louder, better quality headphones for listening to Gojira! Gotta get me some that crank it up to at least 11. Preferable 12 or 13. Ya know jet engine decibel levels.
no doubt, may be one of the most pure concert Executions ever, I can't find words. every time I watch this video im speechless. love how Mario, often time the kick and snare with his brothers singing
Opeth will be releasing their new album in both English and Swedish versions. This made me wonder... how awesome it would be for Gojira to record a few songs in French! I would not understand a thing, but the concept seems quite appealing.
Not really, swedish is a pretty language to hear when sung. Not french. I'm french, i can tell. But you can find a bit of french in Gojira's discography here and there. On the song Low Lands for example if we speak about Magma, and more on the album Terra Incognita.
@@DjoZzef Of course it is nice to hear french in music. But not in Metal. Or at least, it's okay with extreme metal, because we can't tell what it is said.
1:21 ......just look at all those people.....just standing still.....what the hell Frenchmen!! This stuff is some of gojiras best metal, your countrymen, and you just stand there.....shameful! I wish I had the chance to experience these guys! Excellent musicianship, excellent music.....sorry gojira but your home crowd sucks!!!
You have to understand this is not a metal festival, it's not even a rock festival. You could hear pop, rap, electro. I guess the crowd is more or less shocked by the performance
I was in the crowd this night, Gojira was the only metal band of the festival (other groups are electro, pop, rock), it was 2AM, I had personally booked the day just to see Gojira but you have to keep in mind that it wasn't the case for most of the people there and still 50k stayed because they were simply curious (Joe said he was actually surprised and appreciated a lot that the crowd was still so big to listen). I love headbanging etc but it's not because a crowd doesn't move that it doesn't like the sound, people were trying to truly listen to the music and feel it (for those not fond of metal). Check Hellfest if you want to see a French crowd of metal fans.
it's amazing to be here with you tonight , thanks for your welcoming , the next song 's called Blackbone : ) . just hope the translation is good enough (I'm French).
wow 6 times? Where do you even live? I rarely have the oppertunity to watch any band live where i live. /: Probably going to see gojira next year if i can find anyone who is willing to go with me.
This is a message to French brothers in metal: I'd like to learn how the lead singer introduces the song. Can you transcribe what he is saying before he says..."BACK...BONE!!!!!"
What an amazing band, so incredibly heavy, they are earth shattering and devastating, like a vicious force of nature, they make they earth tremble like an avalanche.
saw these guys years back In a tiny shoe box of an indoor venue. nearly blew the doors off. the tables on the upstairs floor were vibrating across the room
Everyone keeps talking about how dead the crowd is for all of the Gojira videos from this festival. That's the key word here folks, FESTIVAL. They were one of the acts in the middle of the day on the third day of a four day festival. Those people are exhausted, dehydrated, hungover, malnourished and are still there to support all of the acts. I would be right there with you if this was just a Gojira show, but I'll cut them some slack since it was a four day mindfuck of metal excellance.
[Intro]
Indestructible
On this rock, I lie, but I'm alive for good
And I just free myself now from all what was wrong
Break the unbreakable
[Verse 1]
All the stars fearlessly bright
They call me out there, order me to face the wind
My structure's alive, body's on the way
Don't bow down before the walls
Of fear and madness, they try to counter me
And strike me down to the ground again
[Verse 2]
Inexhaustible
The strength of fire is running through me
Spine-like beam of light
What mortal could ever break this force?
Unconstrained
I see at last my backbone straighten
Thy serpent made of bones
Finally rise up from the ground awaken
[Outro]
Beat your feet on the ground now, go
This is very death metal
That breakdown makes me windmill hard enough to power 3 Scandinavian villages.
Djuggernaut same
Criminally underrated comment
No karate in the pit.
One of the best CZcams comments I’ve seen in a while haha
How do I plug you in?
If youre a metalhead, you're doing yourself a disservice by not seeing Gojira. Hands down one of the best shows ive seen.
I finally got my chance last August, agreed.
I saw them while on tour for this album, and they blew Lamb of God out of the fucking building. My buddies and I were looking at each other in absolute disbelief.….then we hit the pit!
Do something calm and relaxing before bed, they said.
Watch Gojira all night, I said.
Correct 🤘
I love how they are better live than in the studio
I've always fuckin thought that too man, such a great band
Yeah! I was actually thinking about that. They're like the Rush of metal: You listen to the records and you fucking love them, but to see the real power this band displays you absolutely need to see them live.
Edgar David Hell yes, saw and met them at rock on the range in Columbus Ohio. Blew everyone else out of the way
Edgar David Meshuggah is the Rush of metal
They destroyed Lorna Shore and Mastadon at the festival I went to
very romantic song
aynen
bi 70lik açtım
Better than Careless Whİsper
ill play this on my wedding
This song is more about persistence and picking yourself up when you have absolutely every reason not to.(I get that you were joking tho)
That roar at 1:34 just destroys me. It's one of the greatest parts of this song
+Omar Ghanim EXACTLY
+Omar Ghanim SAME \m/
Combined with the guitars and especially the probably 200+ bpm double bass yep thats like the best part in any song ever
For real!🤘
Evokes a feeling of overpowering sadness for me
The fact that Mario doesn't use triggers on his kicks with this music is absolutely incredible. Especially since he just uses straight kicks for all his fast work. Not double strokes, heel toe, swivel, etc. The dude is a machine.
He always uses triggers. Check out his equipment on equipboard or Wikipedia. But he certainly kicks very hard :-) as you can see in some drum cams
@@pauldesmet8737 He uses triggers mixed with microphones, but for kick drums only. He says that not for every venue tho, depends where they play
@@jez_77 Every drummer in a large metal band no matter how much they deny it, uses software and triggers to some extent. Metal has gotten way too loud, staccato, and way too compressed for drummers to contistently kick with max-power on every bass note for 9 month to year-long tours at this point.
He uses trigger for kick but nothing else. He needs to use it for kick just because of how fast he plays
ENDLESS LUNCHABLE!!!!
Jody Gilbert I can't hear it the same way now. XD
Abraham Gomez lol that Lunchable must have been epic for them to make a song about it.
legend has it, they are still eating it.
🤣🤣👏🏼
3:37 is one of my absolute favorite riffs, it’s so unbelievably heavy and one of my favorite breakdowns
True !
It sounds a bit like the art of dying's last riff
Favorite band 🤘🏻🇨🇵
The angriest french i've heared :)))
Bogdan Dochitanu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏽
vou le vou coucher avec moi?
Rise of the northstar
Very scary.
its not anger its passion
1:33 that sound is medicinal
Yup
My favorite part
it unironically is
Jean plays like Jason Newstead and headbangs like Cliff Burton.
one of the most underrated bassists
he should let grow his hair
He does windmill headbang whitout long hair
Drum work is absolutely monstrous here.
My heart wants to beat with the same frequency the drummer does but it would explode...
A bit of coke always helps
@@yfigoh then run
Cocaine.
Gojira est le raison pour laquelle japprends le francais
Bravo mon gars
Ha cool 👍
I FUCKING LOVE THAT BASS PLAYER!!!!! he's insane in live acts!!!!
thats the attitude
The manliest merci beaucoup i've ever heard
possibly the greatest live performance of backbone
that was the best and angriest merci beaucoup ive ever heard

1:33 relax, listen and let the magic happens... that sound is medicinal
What a freaking voice.
my top two band in the world Meshuggah and Gojira
My brudda
Smart man
2 of the very best
0:56 i love that high part of the vocal
Need me some louder, better quality headphones for listening to Gojira! Gotta get me some that crank it up to at least 11. Preferable 12 or 13. Ya know jet engine decibel levels.
Gojira is spot on with how it sounds on the record and it's really impressive
Something so great for such a dead crowd, what a shame
***** c'est pas des français c'est des bretons.....
***** The band is french.. jerk..
Les Vieilles Charrues is a "mainstream festival", like Coachella. So of course the crowd is a little bit dead.
+Dahita Needed a wall of death
Dahita They're not dead. They're just too blown away to do anything.
masterpiece
the true heaviest matter of the universe...
Best thing that ever came out of France hands down
I thought ratatouille was pretty great
Man, this is so powerful... Love my French roots.
Gojira rules
Gojira...beyond metal
my favourite live
hail from georgia \\m//
B|
\\m//
Man these guys are awesome live so much energy and made the crowd insane good times
no doubt, may be one of the most pure concert Executions ever, I can't find words. every time I watch this video im speechless. love how Mario, often time the kick and snare with his brothers singing
I can't get enough of this live ..
Fucking double hype in the whole song 🤘🤤👌
this song just gets me every time man...
Same here.
1:35 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHGH
3:38 That shit make me sick all time!!
I love hearing the cry of humanity re-established in metal! Thank you France!

No , it could sound good, if done well.
My fucking God that sounds absolutely WONDERFUL!
i have found Mark Hamill at 4:33
lol 😂😂 tought the same
C’est très satisfaisant de savoir que les meilleurs dans le milieu du métal actuel sont des français.
1:21 ......just look at all those people.....just standing still.....what the hell Frenchmen!! This stuff is some of gojiras best metal, your countrymen, and you just stand there.....shameful! I wish I had the chance to experience these guys! Excellent musicianship, excellent music.....sorry gojira but your home crowd sucks!!!
bronze beard dude, the french always surrenders..
jonny j lol and your just racist 🤷🏻♂️

Vous étiez magiques à Rouen, votre musique est un échappatoire dans ce monde fermé et sous vide. N'abandonnez jamais!
Sobresaliente! Una de las bandas mas heavys y detallistas que existen. Tremenda tecnica y riffs asesinos!
Damn. These guys have an increidble amount of energy. I'd love to seem them live.
Putain c'te morceau. Déchire sa mère. Au top Goji'
Good lord they're playing even faster than the studio version, at least in the beginning. I'm so hyped to see them this fall
I love this tempo
holy shit that double bass is explosive
it's amazing to be here with you tonight , thanks for your welcoming , the next song 's called Blackbone : ) . just hope the translation is good enough (I'm French).
Brutal opening - more brutal than studio, good stuff, amazing live performance.
3:37 - one of the best riffs ever.
fucking awsome man , seen them 6 times!!!!!!
wow 6 times? Where do you even live? I rarely have the oppertunity to watch any band live where i live. /: Probably going to see gojira next year if i can find anyone who is willing to go with me.
Kevin Uchiha
same here bro. that guy is just lucky haha
Gaurav Cz saw them 3 time's in 2 years
This is a message to French brothers in metal:
I'd like to learn how the lead singer introduces the song.
Can you transcribe what he is saying before he says..."BACK...BONE!!!!!"
"This is "hallucinating" (awesome) for us to be here tonight. Thanks a lot for your welcome. The next song is calle BackBone... [Riff] MOVE !"
Lucas La Fata Called*
Thanks Lucas. Awesome. How does it look in French, please?
What ?
Btw you're welcome ;)
1:55 I'm surprised the audiences faces didn't melt off.
So many years later. Still fucking amazing.
can't wait to see them in Hellfest!!!!! \m/
Hoping to see them at Bloodstock this year!
My car stereo has finally a song that may very well melt it!
So much power in the bass drums...
I turned the captions on and at 3:19 it says - Brittany, We want to hear you. haha
Just breath taking
UNREAL
My favorite Gojira song 😍😍😍😍😭😭😭😭
What an amazing band, so incredibly heavy, they are earth shattering and devastating, like a vicious force of nature, they make they earth tremble like an avalanche.
Perfect
Proudly presented by France.
Huge & massive classic! this track should be played with symphonic orchestra !
1:35 "Nailed that part! highfive, cymbal!"
Wow !!!! Tremendo tema !!! Y recien los escucho !!!!!!
2nd time watching. Wtf. Awesome.
that audience looks so into it. how does this band only have a few thousand hits? owell makes me like em more. so inspirational
This whole live show is incredible!
If you dislike this video you do not have a BACKBONE!
BEAST BEAST BEAST BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i know its so nice having a brother like Joe.
2:05 is my favourite part
Coooomme un enfant aux yeux de lumièèèreuu qui voit passeeeeeer au loin les oiseauuuuuux !!
Putain, y a pas à dire, ça reste le meilleur morceau du monde que j'ai pu écouter en live.
gojira is king
Those blasts sound insane live! Mario is such Machine!
Madness or not. Expressive you. See you Joe "through the absurd". Yeah. Thx a lot for your beats and understand the dust. ;-)
saw these guys years back In a tiny shoe box of an indoor venue. nearly blew the doors off. the tables on the upstairs floor were vibrating across the room
I need to find this on DVD
that's why Gojira's awesome
French really is a romantic language
Original et puissant gojira for ever !
not overly present? man, 50% of Gojira's guitar tone is actually the bass
Listen, I am french.
This live is in Britanny which is in France. Of course between the songs the singer speaks french. Captain obvious in duty!
gojira!!! ce live est enorme les gars !!!

1:12 - 2:45 The most metal of all metal ever metal.
INDESTRUCTIBLE
I can't feel my fucking neck from headbanging
\m/
You too
I've never heard so much beautiful noise in my life like in the part from 1:34
