You should check out Global Warming (Live at Silver Cord), probably one of Joe Duplantier's best vocal performance that isn't gutturals/harsh and highly emotionally fueled.

Seen Gojira a load of times, even though he does harsh vocals it does feel a lot like he's singing when he does it. He does occasionally sing cleanly like on the song Born In Winter.

Gojira's the band that got me into metal. I went into it thinking metal was just a bunch of angry screaming about whatever violent stuff the vocalist felt like that day while the drummer randomly smashes the hell out of his kit. They were the ones who taught me metal could have a great deal of depth of feeling and meaning. Magma in particular is one of those albums that makes me feel things that are really hard to describe.

I mean, Magma is their slowest album other than their previous album.

I'm 61 and my son introduced me to this band through the album From Mars to Sirius. Specifically Flying Whales. It's so powerful to see them perform it live. There are these circle pits that form and they toss an inflatable whale amongst themselves before the epic drop. Wow. Mind blowing. Mario Duplantier on the drums....I call him Super Mario. He's just amazing. Joe's vocals are incredible and the lyrics are absolutely spot on. I love their morals and their opinions mirror my own on these environmental topics.

Gojira's activism was also a big pull for me and I ended up loving their sound in general quickly.

7:24 Courtney LaPlant from Spiritbox sings this way, you can hear her clean voice together with her screams, it’s a combination of false and vocal folds as you said, it’s a great technique as it gives you a better idea of the lyrics 😂

Its freaking amazing to see how much love and appreciation metal bands are getting lately from these reaction/analysis channel.

Loved this one, Beth! Now I finally understand what you and Elizabeth Zahroff (The Charismatic Voice) mean when you talk about false vocal chords. THANK YOU! 😊. Also, I was just saying to my pal that I'm going to put together a KZread playlist of metal with progressive lyrics, starting with Gojira!! Also Anthrax, System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine etc. I can share it here if folk would like 🙂

I love the subtitles haha: "heavy metal music continues loudly"

I didn't know them, I like this one, thank you for your reaction

"Born for one thing" is a very digestible song, along with "Stranded" and its hook/chorus!

Great reaction, great to hear you react to it! And yes you nailed it, at 7:47 it is technical death metal, one of the genres that Gojira display through their... well... "creations"!

Fast drumming! The understatement of the day. 😊 This is a fantastic video and a great song, and interesting analysis as well. Thanks!

Used to listen alot to Gojira 8-10 years ago... think I need to listen to the old albums again. On the border to death metal but the skill, the melody and the vocals (half growl) is fantastic.

Great video. I loved the addition of the anatomical diagrams. They really helped me better understand what you were explaining. :)

I've seen them live about 4 times and I've been blown away each time. Their music is just so clever and their technique... Mario cannot be human... As for this song, the lyrics and how sad it is hits me every time!

Love seeing your analysis to some more Gojira ! Joe's voice is quite unique in metal (and the rest of the band is also always interesting, hello Mario) I've only seen them twice live even though they're from my country but some of my best concert memories come from them !

When I first read lyrics and knew what they were saying I cried, being in a rough spot in my life a lot of their songs are actually so uplifting and I fell in love with them before even realizing what they actually stand for. Legendary band

Wow! I love the graphics! I've never seen a vocal analysis with these; SO HELPFUL!

Gojira is so great live. I've seen them twice in the last 6months, I could go watch them every week.

I got to see them at Good Things the other week. I didn't see all the bands but out of those I did, they had the best sound mix. Hanging out to see them again, it may be decades (living in Australia)

There is not a "right" way to dance. It is how the music moves you that makes it right.

Such an incredible piece of art!

Cant wait to see them this summer in my town !

Death core tree huggers... who knew?!!! Dancing is an art form just like singing. So just like you often tell us, technique isn't the goal, expression is the goal. And you were clearly expressing your enjoyment!! (Though I must admit, it would have been super cool if you ripped off your headphones and busted out a full on Floor Jansen windmill 😜) Lots of love to you Beth!! 🐬🐳🌲🌳🌍

Beth, you absolutely need to see Gojira live! It's a great experience!

Such a well written tune

This was the song why I wanted to learn guitar. Thank you Gojira!

Been somewhere like a year and a half ago that I watched a video from you. Here I guinely saw someone that is enjoying a metal song. Don't know, but was not something I expected based on the videos I saw from you in the past. Maybe these metal requests had a grasp on you overtime? Anyway glad to see someone coming from a different musical background getting to like heavy metal past the steorotypes.

Awesome reaction. More gojira plzzzzz

I love their live studio performances of Global Warming and of Shooting Star (for the bbc radio i think), and i think they'd be great for a vocal analysis as they include more clean singing 😊. Shooting Star specially is pfffff so beautiful and devastating, specially if you have the context (the passing of the Duplantier brothers' mom).

Te amo Beth Roars❤

FINALLY!!!!! I requested this years ago!!!!

I just saw Gojira live last night, and Lorna Shore opened. Great show. Amazing show.

You would love the song Born in Winter. The emotion of that song and the vocal dynamics would really appeal to you.

I saw Gojira in London this year. Amazing energy.

I love this song so much, it's an incredible song !

If you haven't watched the video "The way of All flesh" live 2009, how I remember, you should react to it, Joe demonstrated best vocals there

Enjoyed this. My sons a big Gojira fan, but I’ve not taken the opportunity to listen to them before. I’m comfortable with the likes of Amon Amarth, Slipknot, A7X etc. Besides, he hates it when I ‘steal his music’ as he accused me of before with A7X. Until I pointed out he was 2 when I first bought an album of theirs lol. Definitely going to give more attention to Gojira. ❤

I’ve seen this band twice (the second time about a month ago), no live video comes close to capturing the sheer, profound, visceral power of this band live, you HAVE to see them in the flesh.

Saw them on Sunday, t’was insane!!!!

Looking forward to see gojira for the first time next February in Nottingham.

This is a very specific one of mine but I would love to hear you do a reaction to any of Karnivool’s music, especially We Are or Themata or Simple Boy or New Day. Just incredible Australian vocals and something very unique

L'enfant sauvage. Hands down one of the most immersive soundscapes in any metal song. (Excluding every Tool song,of course.)

Wish you would react to Global Warming (Live in the studio) or just the studio version of Born in winter, you can really appreciate Joe's versatility on those songs. Also, Joe reminds me of Chester Benington in terms of how much energy and effort their technique requires to make those sounds

Go and see them live if you ever get the chance. It's definitely an experience.

I love this band, thank you for your reaction. Next, try to react Amazonia

Soooo many great songs from gojira if you’re interested in checking out more. They’re so good

There is no right or wrong in terms of feeling music. Gojira is one of the best bands in years.

love beth so analytical her E and julia are my go tos 🥰

Whatever feels right for you, moving to the music, is the right thing to do =) You mentioned vocal coach for harsh vocals - then check out Kardashev, and then Kardavox Academy (the singer is a vocal coach too). Perhaps a conversation with him?

Oh wait, I'm back already. Speaking of Metal, Environmental activism, and Floor; if you're ready to get back into Nightwish, check out "Greatest Show On Earth" with Richard Dawkins (though I personally don't condone many of his philosophies. But that's not why we're here, so I'll just leave that there). "GSoE" is about evolution, so not quite environmental, but kinda like cousins maybe. Regardless, it is a masterful piece of musical story telling. I think you'll enjoy it!!

He's a great vocalist. Try oroborus (official audio). He's able to scream but sing in a note at the same time. It's great. And listen to world to come and the way of all flesh (live) where he throat sings. He's awesome. Global warming live in studio is also great where he mixes clean singing and screaming

Gojira has some of the best riffs I've ever heard

This is how Beth really ROARS!!! 🤘

I’m surprised no one talks about Melissa cross. She trains metal singers. She has techniques and warm ups down. She has multiple videos of training as well

god damn, finally a reaction video that is not boring and monotonous staring at the camera i enjoy watching people react to my favorite songs and movies and even more so, i appreciate and respect people dissecting those songs, etc. thank you for this refreshing video, you are one of the pioneers of "reacting" to and analyzing talented artists it is not only important to enjoy art but also to understand it

To be honest, I think the drummer ist the star of this band and it shows well in that song theire older stuff. The vocals do not stand out at all like (Ryu´s from "former crystal lake") but on the other hand it suits theire massage and musik.

Pain is a master has one of my favorite vocal performances from Gojira

Trying to find an interview from a few years back with Joe Duplantier, the singer. He talks about his training and how he learned I believe it's Mongolian Throat Singing. He uses that technique on a few of their songs. One that would be interesting to react to is "Gojira - The Way of All Flesh live Bordeaux". Chris Lepe also has an excellent video where he breaks down the vocals on their track, "The Art of Dying".

I always thought the fact max cavalera sounds like an angry bear for so many years pretty amazing

Also the graaawwwhh you mentioned is a learning curve..... it's not chaos, it's not just smashing things as fast as you can..... it is complex and in the same way as anything that is complex it takes time to get into it and appreciate it fully. (not saying Gojira is hard to get into, it's one of the easiest death metal bands to get into and I am not even sure I would call them death metal)

GOJIRAAAA

Should probably check born in winter. The vocals are well shown and its a great song overall

beside the genius lyrics Gojira , one is of the best and unique metal band ever , they have songs with more clean vocals , especially in their latest albums , they started very death metal and became more progressive with time .some songs you might like are " l'enfant sauvage " , " silvera " " low lands " about the death of their mother during the recording of the album magma " "born in winter " "this emptiness " , " Pray live at red rocks " oroborus live eurockeenne 2009 ) , stranded , sphinks ,amazonia , the shooting star ,global warming , those are songs not to agressive ..the recent stuff is more accessible , otherwise , classic songs such as the heaviest matter of the universe or flying whales , wolf down the earth ..every songs are good actually

If you ever react to them again, I'd suggest doing their live of Global Warming. While not neccessarily their best song, it puts a lot more emphasis on Joe's vocal performance/range and has a lot more going that you can dig into

Can’t believe I missed this

As a new fan of theirs Yes! But you must do more Kin Etic from 12 foot ninja.

Born in winter is a very good example of Joe's vocal performance

You should check Global Warming by Gojira at Silver Cord studios, one of the best performances by Joe's

Hi there. Consider analysing "Prelude to Madness" and "The Hall Of The Mountain King" by Savatage. I think you would like it. Cheers.
