GOJIRAThe Way of All Flesh
(Prosthetic)
Release date: Oct. 14
The French death machine known as Gojira is one of the few bands within the metal genre that has set the metal world afire. The theme of this record revolves around the subject of death, and the overtone of their music definitely suits it well. Their sound varies from an older death metal style with chugging guitars blasting away with progressive parts (“Toxic Garbage Island”), alternating in between to more technical death metal (“A Sight To Behold”). Lamb of God’s D. Randall Blythe loans his vocals on “Adoration For None,” a straightforward tune that is simply brutal. There isn’t a dull moment anywhere, and they may have created their strongest release to date. Gojira has definitely raised the ante on this release so make sure to wear a helmet when you play this.
