I'm sure this is the case for many others, but this album was definitively my gateway to Gojira-and naturally, became one of my favourite bands for a good few years (I was around 12 when this came out). Literally wet my pants when I saw them live at my first ever gig too (supporting Annihilator and Trivium on what was a great all-round performance, and they based most of the setlist around this album. I still think back and remember how heavier "The Heaviest Matter in the Universe" sounded live than it did on the record, but it's such an amazing song too, and the same simply goes for every other track save "Into the Wilderness" and "Unicorn", two tracks which stand out as being the weakest in my opinion. Yet two tracks as such don't bring the overall quality down. Indeed, if I could summarize this album up in one word, it would be "Massive". Every song is in-your face, but no more so than atmospheric, mesmerizing and basically explosive in one way or another.
Oh, and "World to Come" hits my sweet spot every time it comes on the stereo.

Pretty cool, bit more melodic than normal but still heavy.
Bumped this album to share it on because it's best Gojira.
