Without a doubt, Gojira is one of those bands that are being talked about a lot in the metal community these days and with good reason. The Frenchmen are taking part in progressively higher profile tours and their albums are achieving respectable notoriety all over the world, something that is made all the more impressive by the fact that the band's music is far from commercial sounding or easy to digest. The Way Of All Flesh, Gojira's latest album is supposed to be the next step in the band's ascent into super-stardom and I can say with a degree of certainty that it will serve this purpose successfully, even if it is not an entirely flawless release.

This album changed my perception of metal - for the better.
In my inmost being I was beginning to run dry on music to feed my power-hungry, musical soul....and then this came along.
Gojira have something that is quintessential metal: POWER. Speed and flashiness are cool traits to have in metal but power is the key. There are many passages in this album that are packed with power. 'The Art of Dying' is an amazing song. Great album.

Great music, Great tracks throughout except for maybe Yama's Messengers which is a bit dull in my opinion. Fantastic album regardless. Wolf Down The Earth is one of my all-time favorite metal tracks, dat brige <3

Yes power is a key trait, but also sinister and dark feelings are important in metal.
Might as well say my opinions on this album while I am commenting. I think they fixed the problems that were surrounding 'From Mars To Sirius' (lack of variety and not being concise enough)and this definitely is their magnum opus so far. There is also a few interesting new ideas.
