Grey With Brown Splatter Vinyl Edition

Gojira bend extremes to their whim, emerging as an entrancing enigma equally driven by intuition and intensity. Balancing metallic proficiency, primal grooves, and otherworldly melodies, the French quartet continue to facilitate heavy music’s progression into the future by burning down all boundaries. As such, they’ve unassumingly risen to the forefront of the genre as quiet trailblazers. Thus far, they’ve earned three GRAMMY® Award nominations and even claimed a coveted spot on Rolling Stone’s “100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time” with 2005’s landmark From Mars To Sirius. Their catalog spans groundbreaking records such as L’Enfant Sauvage [2012] and Magma [2016]. However, the band leveled up again with Fortitude in 2021. Upon release, it arrived at #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart and #1 on the Top Current Album Sales Chart as the week’s best-selling album in terms of pure sales. Simultaneously, it catapulted to #12 on the Billboard 200, marking a career high. “Amazonia” also garnered a GRAMMY® Award nod in the category of “Best Metal Performance.” Fortitude closed out 2021 on year-end lists from Rolling Stone, The Guardian, Consequence, and Paste and would be hailed as the “#1 Best Album of the Year” by Revolver and Metal Hammer. Along the way, they’ve headlined legendary venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheater and more. The group capped off 2022 by contributing the standalone single “Our Time Is Now” to EA’s NHL 2023. Gojira captivated the globe with a fiery performance during the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics debuting “Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!) featuring Marina Viotti and Victor LeMasne, charting #1 on the US Hard Rock Digital Song Sales upon release. With restless creativity and infinite vision, Gojira always inspire thought, awaken passion, and incite catharsis as heavy music’s most unconventional yet undeniable force.
