Well, this is awesome! GOJIRA of course is booked to do a bunch of dates on METALLICA's upcoming Fall tour. Being the rock gods that they are, 'tallica is only playing 3 dates in a row and then taking a week off at a time. A band like GOJIRA can't afford that sort of luxury [...]

On the way be sure to notice a satisfying dose of progressive experimentalism and straight ahead riffs and drumming to go along with your scenic landscape of pulverizing death metal. Sit back, set your headrest, and buckle your seat belt tight and low across your l...
Do you know how to say "brutal" in French? Brutal. True story. Six years of French. Suck it, bitches. ANYWAY, The Way of All Flesh may not be the most br00tal album of the year, but it's certainly the most vicious. L'album le plus méchant de l'anée. Hooky but heavy, proggy but not pretentious, and French [...]
The video for "Vacuity," the first single off of Gojira's ball-achingly awesome new album The Way of All Flesh, has been released, and I have to say, I love the image of the woman dragging the giant, heavy box along the road. 'Cause I like to imagine it's full of the music from Gojira's new [...]

The man's environmentalist sentiments are pretty well known and have [...]

Whatever it is, Jeffrey Nordin not only claims to know but claims to have the definitive list of the top 6 such riffs EVARRR. Explains Nordin via email: “Unlike the other myriad attempts at YouTube [...]
