Any input on these signatures?

I realized the top left corner was supposed to be Alex but he left the band years before this reissue. The person I got mine from claims the guy that sold it to him was a friend of the band and had Alex sign years after, but that happening twice seems a bit far-fetched. Keep in mind I think this was around 2005-ish, so their signatures could have changed over the last twenty years, but I'm still leaning towards fake. Anyone have any input?

"Friends are dying, the living creatures on our side." Just got to me ..after years.

Like, I knew. But I didn't truly feel it until now. Woow..

I'm glad I'm choosing a career path right now that'll bring me closer to getting to know our wildlife. This is just me personal.

I love y'all, and I don't wanna further waste your time reading a dude's random realization here. I wish you a beautiful day with much fortitude, keep your heads up.

How many of you guys are actually french ?

I'd just love to know !

Since Goijra's a french band and that we're on this sub speaking english, it'd be fun to know how many of us are french, and how fucking PROUD WE ARE TO BE THE HOMECOUNTRY OF THE HEAVIEST BAND IN THE UNIVERSE.

Any gojira song to dedicate to your couple?

I was wondering what songs would be good to dedicate to your boyfriend/girlfriend, because I’m dating someone who I really connect with. And I really want to dedicate him a gojira song because the band has become an influence in many areas of my life and I relate to some of their lyrics.

Underrated Gojira songs.

I think songs like Yama’s Messengers, Planned Obsolescence, Death of Me, fit into this category. Also, In the Wilderness, maybe not many people agree with me on this, but I think is a criminally underrated song, nasty riffs, nasty outro, and a fastastic atmosphere, just as good as the other songs from From Mars to Sirius. what other tracks come to mind?

What is your favorite Gojira interlude into song?

Mine is 5988 trillions de tonnes, when it busts into deliverance is some of the heaviest Gojira I’ve ever heard. (I apologize if I used the wrong wording referring to intros or interludes fading into songs, I’m sure there’s a shorter term for it)

Trying to order from the official store... am I screwing up something?

I'm trying to order a T-shirt from the official store (https://store.gojira-music.com/). I'm adding the shipping info (shipping to Europe), the card details (Revolut single use card) I click the buy button and nothing happens. The buy button is greyed out but there is no waiting icon, no error message, my balance didn't go down... Am I doing something wrong? Is my phone or address format wrong? I can't use a single use credit card? Anyone else had the same issue?

Any ideas for some lyrics to use for my senior quote in my yearbook this year?

I'd really like to use some gojira lyrics as my quote in the yearbook, as this band has been such a huge part of my high school experience, and i was wondering if you guys had any good ideas for what lyrics to use!

pit or seats??

hi everyone !

I'm planning on going to one of the concerts of the French tour in late 2025 (I'm French) and I already got tickets for a seat. However, yesterday evening I went to a rock/punk/metal concert and since the tickets were bought by my mom, I had a seat, and I kind of regret not having been in the pit (I still had an amazing concert dw). I felt very restrained (I couldn't dance, jump, whatever) and the people around me were super calm so I felt a bit out of place if I headbanged or whatever

Since Gojira is my fav band, I want to enjoy the concert I'm going to to the fullest, but idk if I should sell my seat ticket and get a pit one instead (there are some available).

As I'm abt 5'3"/162cm, I'm afraid I won't be able to see anything if I go in the pit and that it might impact my overall experience, but I also want to have an intense experience (while staying out of pogos & moshpits, I doubt I can stay safe during these given my height) and bc of how I felt yesterday evening, I'm not sure having a seat is the best way to meet that goal

so yeah, I'd love to have some opinion on this ^^

Is there any video of the maciste all'inferno live performance from 2003

As far as I know, the tracks were played live during a projection of the movie at rock school barbey in bordeaux, france.

I know you can find the ep on youtube but is there any video recording of the event?

[Help - all ears needed] - What is being said on "Explosia" in spoken word between the last two verses?

Explosia. Around 3:20 mins.

There's a sample of persumably a female voice saying something with spoken words - but I can't find any info anywhere. So this Gojira mystery is not cracked to this day.

So I've summoned all of us - does anyone have a clue on which we could build upon?

Here's the link to the Explosia YouTube video with timestamp. The voice line occurs right after "Releasing out a lifetime".

What makes Heaviest Matter of the Universe so fucking heavy?

Genuinely one of the heaviest songs I've ever heard and it's not even close (Might even be THE heaviest). But what about it makes it so heavy?

What's the history of 'Of Blood and Salt'?

I know that they were recording some album or EP and there was some problem with storage drive or smth. But does someone know how this track ended up on the internet? I mean, the band itself or some leak? Because if it was them then why it is not on streaming platforms
