Gojira - From Mars To Sirius


In the metal genre, we hear a lot of bands that sound the same. That is not so with Gojira. Gojira does not compromise heaviness for it's creativity, however. The guitars are heavy, the vocals are harsh (but not in that generic cookie monster way. It's more of a harsh yell then a growl), and the drums utilize the infamous double bass. But damn, these guys can shred. And their lyrical content isn't your average slog of death and anti-Christian overtones. Songs like Global Warming and Flying Whales show a slightly more different approach to lyrics than many other metal bands. And the song Backbone... Damn, man. Good shit. To be short, Gojira injects the much needed creativity into the metal genre, and sacrifices nothing for it. A must have album for metal fans.

ALSO: I am sorry about the YT link in the Slaves On Dope album. It has been remedied with the actual Mediafire link. Please enjoy :>
