Gojira
From Mars To Sirius

Quite simply the most terrifying metal prospect ever to cross the channel.

Hailing from the unlikely source of France, tech-metal overlords Gojira deal in some of the most twisted, complex and utterly fucked up soundscapes since Meshuggah first picked up their 8-strings and tuned lower than Abi Titmuss’ sense of morality.

If you’ve picked up a metal rag over the past year then you’ll likely need no introduction, and ‘The Heaviest Matter of the Universe’ is a prime example of why the quartet are such shit hot property. Mixing the crazed and complex brutality of Strapping Young Lad with Fear Factory’s trademark haunting vocal refrains, this 4 minute burst of aggression more than lives up to its title. Once your ears start bleeding and your body spontaneously convulses in a state of shock, you’ll wonder how you ever coped with sanity.
