Born in Winter is better than everything on this album, and i feel like that's the direction they were trying to go.

Not really dude, I understand why some people would see this as quite a vacant release tho.

"RIP Gojira"



Nah. This is probably my favorite metal release this year so far, but my metal tastes have also softened with age, so that's probably worth taking with a grain of salt.



Rating may drop slightly.



"I understand why some people would see this as quite a vacant release tho."



I think a lot of people are quick to misconstrue openness and a reduction in technicality as a less-potent product rather than a streamlined one.

Album Rating: 4.0

Agreed, I think scaling back the technicalities has only worked in this bands favor. This album feels very composed in the best way possible. This approach is what I initially came to love about Gojira on their last album and is something they only seem to improve upon imo with this release.

Completely agree.

It's not that this is streamlined, it's just that it's boring. The band has stripped away just about everything that made them interesting in the first place.

I'm not sure you're allowed to love both though

I know. It's a paradox.

I love both too.

What is it that "made them interesting in the first place" that you view to be lacking in this release?

The Way of All Flesh is still my favorite by these guys but this is a close second.
