If there is something missing from a lot of metal at the present time, be it death, black or whatever, it's novelty. In all fairness, metal is one of rock's most intolerant forms, with followers more often than not opposed to new directions once their much valued group has distinct itself. To break out that, some metal groups bring in a wide palate to begin with. Gojira is really one of the most unique metal groups out there right now. They range across melodic and even progressive metal field, with occasional meanderings into death-ish feel. Not often do they befall out and out death metal, and they almost never lose their melodic edge. Their music may not strike as really complex, as many hits hinge on one riff repeated in minor or major keys, but the fills in-between alert to amazing musicianship and smart design.
Gojira is currently touring the Europe, supporting their latest album “L'Enfant Sauvage and the band will kick off their North American tour in August. Lamb of God and Dethklok will join Gojira on the tour, and the set list will include selections from the Gojira’s latest album "L'Enfant Sauvage".
