#Gojira #TheArtOfDying #TheWayOfAllFlesh
Gojira are magicians.
Def a band that deserves to be the next headliner on all the European festivals
Let us hope that there will be any Festivals and Concerts in Europe next year...
They already are tbh
For me they are just ahead of their time...
Everytime i listen to them, I feel like on the first SOAD album. They know how to be catchy with a vocalist that feels like an istrument and a drum that feels like a vocal!
I'm a bit afraid of dying in a moshpit when they play some specific songs, but I call it worth it if i can watch them live!
Greetings from Germany
Yes! Mario is easily one of the best drummers in metal.
Totally! I do have so many drummers who I think are the best though. ❤️👍🏽🙌🏽
Not saying wrong opinions exist but it would be plain dumb to say that he isnt one of the greatests to emerge from the 2000’s
His brother is one of the best producer too .
Obviously
If you liked this song you also might like Toxic Garbage Island, also another excellent example of Marios Drumming.
PLASTIC BAG IN THE SEA
Favorite Gojira song of all Time !!!
or try "where dragons dwell" by them
The opening of this song is my morning alarm
Hé, c'est une superbe idée ! 🤘
I have the drum intro to Jambi by Tool as my morning alarm.
I'm pretty sure you are never late to your classes or your work XD
@@eemirhanbilici
Why? Stuff like that is relaxing isn't it?
I'll remember falling asleep to "Bleed" by meshugga on a vacation and one person found me with the big music system on under my head and freaking out so i woke up xDDD
Fun fact: The outro to this song is the same length of time it takes for someone to die after drowning
damn fr?
Not everyone dies at the same pace, at best it's an average
@JM Coulon Hey man, how long did it take you to die from drowning then? C'mon, spill the beans :D
yup, that checks out. sorry everyone, that was for SCIENCE!
JM Coulon ...you good?
Fun fact = Mario doesn’t even know the time signature to the opening part. He counts the pattern instead (4-4-4-2-2-2-4-4-4-2-2 repeat an insane amount of times until it starts over)
And each time starts with a different leg, RLR L R LRL R L RLR L R L R L R LRL R L RLR L R LRL R L RLR L R LRL R L R L R L or some shit like that. Speaking the bass drum.
Fun fact: the end section is actually the riff from Esoteric Surgery played backwards
up
I'm French and Mario is for me the best drummers in the metal
Tu as bien raison 🇨🇵
j'adore Gojira et Mario est vraiment un excellent batteur
Entièrement d'accord
I agree, nasty chops
You just reacted to the Greatest song of all time a pure masterpiece!!
Straight art.
Definitely check out Where Dragons Dwell live at Hellfest 2013. One of Gojira and Mario's best performances you'll ever watch! Not to mention probably the heaviest breakdown ever
Hell yes!! You can see the actual anguish in Mario’s face as he’s going on 4+ minutes of double pedals! The man is a beast
My life changed when this album dropped. I was 20 years old I think. Something kind of pivoted in my mind and I havent been the same person since. That's what it feels like when remembering back to that time. Maybe something about the fact that I had "grown up" and started thinking about my future. The album is pretty heavy on the themes of birth, death and life being this eternal cycle (first track is Orobouros for example). Also about our legacy as humans, in many ways, but mostly in an environmental way. What we leave behind us after we die (Toxic garbage island?). So it got me thinking about global warming even more.
I think the instrument you're referring to is a Didjeridoo, from Australia. Also a really cool Aphex Twin track!
Forgot your question about other great bands to check out: Katatonia and Nevermore comes to mind, for something a bit different than usual.
You MUST watch their Live at Vieilles Charrues performance of this song!
I see what you mean about them sounding a bit like Orbit Culture during that one section. OC is pretty much a cross between Gojira and Metallica, I love those guys. Funny you bring them up, their frontman has gone on record to say this very song made him cry the first time he heard it and is essentially what inspired him to become a musician.
Man I think you would love the song "Clone" by Gojira. Absolutely brutal. Great reaction as always. Would love to see more Gojira. Where dragons dwell live at hellfest will blow your mind. Backbone and Mouth of Kala are up there on my list as well.
Lad, Mario is probably my favourite drummer of all time, this song is quite trippy in my opinion, puts you in a trance❤️
It was great seeing you review this! I've always loved this song because of the non-conventional intro and the consistently syncopated drumming. So getting to hear you pick out those fine details in the guitars that I'd missed really broadened my perspective.
Gojira were my bridge into growly vocals. Still my favourite metal vocalist.
Joe Duplantier has an excellent vocal technique, it is rare
So proud that Mario is a reference in métal. I follow them since their first french shows (200 people max at the time). Big evolution and a lot of work
Je vois ce que tu veux dire, c'est fou le chemin parcouru depuis début 2000 me concernant... Le petit groupe fait maintenant autorité à l'échelle mondiale, c'est dingo.
Next react to Vacuity or Wolf down the earth. Also by Gojira
Vacuity is such a good song man
Yes, The way of all Flesh in general is one of the best metal albums in my opinion \m/
Wolf Down the Earth is so criminally underrated
@@jaumesierra2093 I hate that song lmao
Vacuity is an interesting song: the rhythm is so basic, yet so unique at the same time. How many songs can you name that accent the downbeat THAT hard?
Gojira-Where dragons dwell live its epic
Gojira one best gig I have ever been too
My favorite Gojira song!!
Gojira is my fav band. Please just do their first album.
Gojira figuratively saved my life. Besides their amazing music, what truly got me is their songwriting.
The Battle of Yaldabaoth, next!!
I used to do FOH back when this album came out and we got our hands on a sick oversized PA for the venue, and first thing i did after it was set up was play this on full blast. So good.
The album is a masterpiece from start to finish.
I WAAAANT PRINGLEEEEEEES
AND CHEERIOS IN THE AFTERLIIIIFE
The Art of Dying is one of my favorite tracks ever (not just from Gojira)! Mario is such an amazing drummer (also one of my absolute favorites). I would love for you to react to Meshuggah, Car Bomb, Deftones, and Tool. You won’t regret it! 💗🙌🏽👍🏽
This song is like campfire story when you are a child, or a painting, you can feel it's texture, and history behind it... Masterpiece in my opinion:)
You gotta check out their songs Toxic Garbage Island and L'enfant Sauvage. Everything about those songs is just so good
They recently rereleased a music video for the song vacuity from the same album its worth checking out
Awesome drummer!!!
Oh no, you should watch it live! There is drum playthrough on CZcams, Mario is genius of the drums but to see him live is an exceptional experience!!
I agree, the live performance of this song is soooooo heavy
All the fidelity of listening through your beanie
Esoteric Surgery!
Bonne réaction Monsieur Birb.
Really cool reaction! Gojira is one of my favorite bands, every band member and especially their drummer is incredible. I also love their kind of tribal sound as you mentioned in the video. What is also special about Gojira, is, that their lyrics talk a lot about the environment and the relationship between humans and the other species on this planet, what I consider as really cool especially in times like this. You should definitely check out their songs ‚Esoteric Surgery‘, ‚The Gift of Guilt‘, ‚Explosia‘, ‚Pray‘ or ‚Wolf down the earth‘. Also check out the band Beyond Creation and their song ‚Omnipresent Perception‘, or the band Katatonia and one of their songs ‚My twin‘. Another band I highly suggest is Fleshgod Apocalypse and their song ‚Epilogue‘. Stay safe and stay metal \m/
10:25 it's the intro to the next track "Esoteric Surgery" simplified on guitar, and reversed!
To me the way of all flesh is Gojiras best and most cohesive album. There is something very sad to most of the songs on the album.
Do a Gojira album review! L'Enfant Sauvage or The Way of All Flesh
I think the timing is like 45/4
Gojira most badaass, most greatest band ever!! So emotional!!
This song brings tears to my eyes
You picked up on a lot that took me multiple listens to notice! My brother is a proffessional musician and he couldnt nail the timing down either....
Gojira - Remembrance - The Link Alive
The song the way of all flesh off the same album would be really cool to see! It definitely needs more reactions!
Also, the beat goes: 4 4 4 2 2 2 4 4 4 2 2 repeated, so simple but damn it throws ya off lol
Love this Song! I was fearing it would be too repetitive for you as they keep "repeating" alot but you noticed all the small nuances and I'm glad. Cos to me it's not repetitive and it puts me ina kind of trance/groove. Big Band to react to Kvelertak - Bruane Bren is not gona be your new fav Band but it's a good vibe and Fun Clip! If you want something more famous Rush?
Toxic Garbage Island and Vacuity from this album are also bangers
Sick song, glad u liked it
Just got to terra and work your way up baby
I love gojira!!! Probably my favorite band atm... But something funny about Joe Duplantier... He said slayer lyrics were too evil for him, but they are highly influenced by bands like Morbid Angel... Maybe his lyrics reading got lost in translation somewhere.
The Way of All Flesh is such a fucking good album
Yesss! Song gets me so pumped
The time has come for you to watch theirs lives my friend.
Dude you need to check out Enslaved. Their new album is amazing. Actually their last 3 albums are amazing. Try Homebound from their new album. You won't be disappointed.
My favorite Gojira song. Prog and heavy.
The Way Of All Flesh is peak-Gojira imo. Love this album.
nice reaction, i believe this song has been heavily inspired by sepultura's"ratamahata". i think that's where the tribal and amazon forest feeling come from.
The outtro is just filthy how good it is.
Bro you gotta react to band named mors principium est..1) monster in me or 2) my home my grave..love from INDIA!!😉
@Shiva one more here 🤘. Gojira all the way 🤘
Oh, and by the way, don't know if you know this already, but Holding Absence just released a new song recently called "Beyond Belief". In my opinion it is better than Gravity and Birdcage (which I'm not sure if you've heard it yet, but you should also check out this one too if you haven''t). They'll be puting out an album early with this song on there next year, so I can't wait!
Yes, Gojira is an awesome band. Mario is such a beast behind the kit. He doesn't just play them, he destroys them. Not a fan of their newest single either, so I hope the other stuff they'll be putting out will be better, maybe closer to their older style like this?
Anyway, as for bigger bands that you should check out, definitely some Symphony X. Should be up your alley, as they are basically the more neo-classical version of Dream Theater, with much better and grittier vocals. Songs I woulld recommend is either Inferno (Unleash The Fire), or the 24-minute mammoth beast of a song that is The Odyssey. The latter being quite a journey both musically and lyrically, as it talks about the journey of the Ancient Greek hero Odysseus.
YES Symphonx X good call!
Maaaaan when you said the song was 10 minutes long I said out loud, “don’t feel like it though.” Lo and behold, you said the same thing after😂
The wood instrument pattern is the same as the drums, or rather- the drum pattern is the same as the wooden instrument pattern. Once you realise that it’s a lot easier to follow with the ride cymbal pulse
GOJIRA THE BEST
Fun fact, The tempo is the same throughout the entire song and it’s all 4/4
You have found enlightenment.
this song gets better every time
You want for the album?
You get the album!
The smooth outro connect with the beginning of Esoteric Surgery..
Treat yourself, follow the lyrics!
Cheers buddy!
Oh, also the outro from Esoteric Surgery with that boom noise is like a bridge to Vacuity, making it a trilogy of heavy songs
Mario 😍😍😍
the intro polyrhythm is pretty simple on paper
5 5 5 3 3 3, 5 5 5 3 3
with the last hits on the 5 and 3 being rest notes
so its like 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2
and then when the other instruments come in, Mario plays quarter notes on the ride and the kicks do 3-3-3-2-2-2-3-3-3-2-2 and the snare playing basically on the note after the last kick or being the 4 and the 3 after the kicks.
Yes, sounds super simple lol
Joe wants pringles
U may love Tethra but they are not that big........but i love their stuff.......u might like BLEED FROM WITHIN also LAMB OF GOD........
There’s nothing wrong with diving deep into a band... and this is a group you should feel ok delving deep into. Fuck CZcams reactions. Just do it for you.
These guys are transcendent. Musically and lyrically. Don’t wait for us out here to like your videos. Download their discography and just immerse yourself.
KILLER BE KILLED. Greg from TDEP, Brent from Mastodon, Max Cavalera, and the drummer from Converge.
Mario du-plont-yay
Check out Esoteric Surgery ma dude
YOU HAVE THE POWER TO HEAL YOURSELF
Invocation - Atlas (Ascent)
new sugestion, maybe not so new, Sepultura - Means to an End
Your pronunciation of Mario Duplantier was incorrect😂
“Doo-plahnt-yare”
Cant figure out the time... me “hihihihihi its in 4/4”
Nice! Next please do 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' by Britney Spears!
Man....when does metalbabe come back?
Mario Duplantier is a god. There is your proof.
Stick with this record dude its their best one! Vacuity, Toxic Garbage Island, or Esoteric Surgery would be killer
Ouais , il se démerde pas trop mal le petit gars !! il devrait aller loin !! GOJIRA FUCKING RULES. Try some Meshuggah !
ESOTORIC SURGERY PLEAASEE
honestly i dint like it very much but i got throught it...... no offence.....
`plz try to react to tethra....
Dude no band makes me wanna pick up my guitar and just jam for hours like Gojira do
I feel out of my body
Is he still with this girl?
Funny story, I showed my cousin Mario Duplantier videos and he said "he's not as good as everyone thinks".
Lars Ulrich is his favourite drummer. Seriously😂
Not to sound elitist, but your cousin sounds uncultured after 😅
@@cl34n.62 nah he definitely is, anyone who thinks Lars is better than Mario is uncultured and a bit delusional😂
I don't think that's how you pronounce Duplantier xD
Du-plant-ee-ay. Or maybe I'm talking outta my ass it's been a long while since high school.
