Joe Duplantier, the vocalist and lead guitar player for Gojira utilities a hybrid of rough vocals on top of signing in false chords to preserve his voice and produce that unique tone you were talking about. Gojira is so good at transitions man, their groove is on point always and their drummer is next level. You should've watched Clone (The Link Alive). They produce music videos but their live performances are so good I listen to several of them over the album versions. If you want to see what their drummer is capable of you have to see the video for Where Dragons Dwell - Live at Hellfest 2010
@@DaddyGoose_CB I would call it a stretch in that he doesn't really have the same range, but the technique is probably similar. It gives him that unique edge though, that recognition you were talking about. The drummer is also just amazing man, Mario Duplantier is next level.
Gojira is in my opinion, the best metal band on current times, even when they are heavy af all the time, they have different types of songs, even only instrumentals. I recommend you seeing a video of them live, often their live performances are as powerful as the studio ones, the classic one to react to is The Gift of Guilt, but they have several other good live performances. I saw them live last year in Santiago, Chile, and I gotta admit, they are absolutely brutal and that concert was pure energy!
Jealous you saw them live! The next upload (monday April 24th) is actually another double Gojira reaction! Found my fav gojira song! I wont spoil the songs I listen to but hope to see you there! Thanks for the Support!
@@DaddyGoose_CB Nice, dude! I will wait for that video. And btw, it's really nice seeing you are so interactive with your community and I loved the vibe you gave on the video, you seem a very chill dude and quite feeling the music while listening, thing that ofc all metalheads can relate to.
@@revanox181 aye! I really appreciate these kind of comments! I love interacting with all commentors! Thanks for the Support again and the great words! I'm hyped for the Video tomorrow, such a good gojira song!
You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT about this being a gateway drug to metal. That’s a great way to say it. And this is perfect music for vibing in the car. The slow vibe at the end goes into the next song and fits perfectly. Gojira albums are complete experiences. The lyrics are profound, so I need to disagree on that part. Check out their lyrics. It’s a huge reason why I love these guys.
Gojira? Alright i’m subbed. There a washing list of songs to be recommended, but as you did this double, i HIGHLY recommend you to watch these 2 exact same tracks live. With their stage presence both are absolute nuts. Oroborus Live At Eurockeenes and Clone live at Garorock. If you could do these 2 again live, i’d love to see what you’d think of those. So so worth it. Cheers.
I probably wont react to the live version since I've now heard the songs and the list is pretty long now haha but ill take a listen to them for sure! I may do a live version of a song next time around when I react to them again! Thanks for the Support!
@@DaddyGoose_CB how i experienced it is that with Gojira, most of my favourite tracks are all played live at a particular show. For Gojira you really have to go live and get back to the tracks to appreciate them more and more. A lot of tracks take time to appreciate it to the fullest, but once you get it, you’ll like it for a longer period of time, which is totally my case.. and that’s where the live versions completely blew me away…pity you wont react to them as these ones is where Gojira sets themselves apart imo, trust me on that one. just a tip ;)
@@Tritoness I would love to react to the songs again live but the list is far to long haha, like I said next gojira reaction ill do a live version! I'm excited for it though!
The switch-ups start to become part of the whole groove of the song the more you listen to it. They start to become addictive. The 3 songs you've heard are fairly representative of New-School Gojira (Stranded), Mid-School Gojira (Orabourus) and Old-School (Clone). Old school is where it's at imo \m/
This is some older Gojira, great sings both, Clone might be topping, because of the heaviness in it, that just grab you.. i suggest to check this band out live to songs, ,the gift og guilt, Flying whales, the art of dying, Lénfant sauvage, The heaviest matter of the universe.... all masterpieces imo.. i cant remeber the best live versions on hand, just know i heard those songs live, and it was a mindblow..
They can do the absolute opposit of the compact twisting and turning song as 'Clone' is. Try 'Where Dragons Dwell' live, a long building up of repeating layers of sound and rhythms. This type of metal is at its best live. Gojira performances are filled with energie. On one thing you where dead right: it's an interesting band. Still some work to do: Opeth and Rammstein are waiting for you.
@@DaddyGoose_CB YOOOOO A RU-vidr that ACTUALLY interacts!? I'm in. They have about 20 years of fucking bangers. You're in for a treat with these guys!!!
@@DowntunedDevil I never miss a comment! I love interacting with the commentors and supporters! Stay tuned for community tab stuff, I just unlocked it! It will have polls and news and stuff!
So much to suggest. Backbone is probably both a band and fan favorite. Mario's best drum song imo. In the Wilderness is my favorite of theirs. For the one drummer I think is better than Mario try Meshuggah Clockworks: Thomas Haake drum playthrough
You must listen to Clone (Live at Vieilles Charrues Festival 2010), One of the best performances IMO, read the lyrics too while listening if you havent too. I like the live more than the studio version
Ill listen to the live version off screen since the list is so long, but next time i react to gojira I will have to do a live version of the song! By the sounds of it they are must be pretty good live! Thanks for the Support!
Good morning Big Daddy.... I'm just checking out some older Gojira vids to get my Saturday started...These songs showcase how diverse they can go across the metal spectrum although I'm partial to Clone bc I'm a drummer and I just love those double kick fills and grooves he's using ✌️🧐🤘
“The heaviest matter of the universe” (live at vielles charrues 2010) if you like chaos, that live performance is the absolute definition of it. i read through comments, all besides the top are steering you a little wrong, i assure you that performance will blow you away, and that’s just the gateway. best live band by far, and once you get into them you’ll be obsessed
Stearing at a photo is one of the best ways to listen to music, because you actually listen to the song, it's always good to have a video but the first time has to be Studio version and without video imo
@@PZMaTTy Staring at a photo really does help a song sometimes! Clone was definitely heavier than the other songs I've heard sofar! Thanks for the Support and double comment!
The "filler" flows into another song, Toxic Garbage Island which you also should check out 😁 Also, if you get a chance, please listen to all of Terra Incognita. AMAZING album! TI and The Way of All Flesh are my favs from them. Just good solid rock!
It's actually a painting! I play alot of pokemon and my friends and I used to do little Tournaments amongst ourselves, and Houndoom was my Mascot haha Thanks for the Support and Checking out the Channel!
@@DaddyGoose_CB the coolest pokémon are often not competitively viable sadly, take froslass or mawile for example. also if you’re wanting to hear more gojira listen to where dragons dwell, l’enfant sauvage, vacuity. trust me
I'll have to add it to the list then! Thanks for the Support! P.s ironically enough a new Double Gojira Reaction goes up tomorrow! Hope to see you there!
Aye love to see when people give their own ratings! I'm hoping to find a Gojira song that I can give a 90 for, I know it's coming, it's just a matter of time! Thanks for the Double Comment!
I'll watch on my own time since there's so much on the list and I've now heard clone, but ill definitely check it out, I've heard they are great live! Thanks for the Support!
Some songs are really heavy and gross. And it can be hard to listen to some songs because they are very progressive. But they are very listenable for people trying to get into death metal. Also my fav band
You’re absolutely right about Joe’s voice. The only other vocalist I can think of that’s similar is Max Cavalera from back when he was in Sepultura, which Gojira took huge influence from. Listen to albums like Arise or Chaos AD and you’ll hear the influence, especially in the latter.
