The new Terrorizer just did a live report on Gojira. Apparently the whole experience is just earth shattering.
And by the way, "From Mars to Sirius" sold 20,000 copies in France ALONE. That means, you're looking at around 50,000 global which explains the sell out so fast. And that's with no massive marketing, airplay, or promos.
Just goes to show, quality goes a long way. Other labels should take notice (and the sad thing is, I don't even think they have. I am 100% convinced that all the Metal Blade scouts are still looking for the next Black Dhalia Murder).
