GO FUCKING JIRA! US TOUR ... Fa Kin Su Pah!

[lurch70]

you might want to dig up some of their lyrics ... and it will be quickly deniable.

 

[lurch70]

case in point ... lyrics to the first vid

. Remembrance

I feel I come from better conditions
buried deep in my mind I forgot
awake my soul
I want to find and drink this light

Images of the past
other lives and other places
always the same embraces
I return to where I've been

I take inside a forward movement
Involved in desire of consciousness
progress, understand
I want to find the keys of the past

remember the past present future
memory is a force
so many things have happened
to me the hardest of all

But the gates would never again
be opened to me unless
I could bid them open at my
own will and command

I feel I come from better conditions
(opened them at my own will and command)
buried deep in my mind I forgot
(opened them at my own will and command)
always the same light, same embraces
(opened them at my own will and command)
I take inside a forward movement

Holy shit, Gojira and Amon Amarth on the same bill?

Sold x 1.2 gigawatts + flux capacitator * lightning at the clock tower

 

[J.]

and you laugh at agalloch lyrics?

 

[JayKeeley]

Gojira = slabs of monolithic concrete plummeting into the ocean

after checking out those two clips, an undeniable truth occurred to me: Gojira plays soulless music

I'm spotting you're saying this because of their sound. I don't agree that clinic music is automaticly soulless (not that you said it) but in general that is unfortunately true indeed . For what I know of Gojira it's not soulless like your average death-metal band.

The rest of the package is in a dangerous position. COB? Perfect example of a band that was successful at power-metal revival time that is now becoming anonymous.

Have fun guys, the future of french metal exposure depends on you

and you laugh at agalloch lyrics?

Agreed, those lyrics were not very good.

 

[lurch70]

point is, they rock me cock ... and after a stressful day, i need that more than some guy strumming an exotic instrument while walking barefoot on fallen leaves

Don't insult M. Lehto like that.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Gojira is currently melting my face. Consider my previous comments null and void, this is Behemoth!!!

Edit- "The Heaviest Matter of the Universe"

 

[Reign in Acai]

Holyfuck @ Global Warming. This band truely is Godzilla!!! I haven't been audiogenically raped like this for awhile.

 

[lurch70]

yeah, it takes awhile ... took me as well ... and then it just hits you ... especially at loud volumes.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

no St. Louis, no go.

 

[Reign in Acai]

yeah, it takes awhile

Negative Andre, this was on first listen. My negative comments from before were based on 3 tracks heard through my shitty pc speakers, all while I was in a pissy mood. This time the music was consumed it its entirety, with headphones, during a state of tranquillity.

If Nad didn't ridiculously name that Gojira thread "Free Willy Metal", I may have got in to these guys a year ago.

 

[lurch70]

haha ... i think it had to do with the flying whale on the cd cover.

gimme five Robby

 

[JayKeeley]

Negative Andre, this was on first listen.

I too was dumbstruck on initial audial capture of said cosmic resonance.

 

[Demonspell]

I was basically sold on the first listen, but that may have been because I had heard most of their first two albums...on the other hand, I don't rate From Mars as highly as some people here, but it still rocks like a bastard and doesn't sound soulless IMO...

 

[Sfarog]

count me in for sure for the Dec 17th date in NYC. I've been exposed to Gojira some time ago and I won't miss this date for sure. The quality of their minimalist approach music just perplexes me. There is something special in their sound!

"I wanna live in the forest forever!"

I seriously have no idea whatsoever how you could have come to that conclusion.

My first experience with them was live, and it was a near-religious experience. Their set at Download 2006 was ridiculously, unbelievably good, despite being criminally short.
