Like the very best songs by everyone from Metallica to Pantera to Lamb of God, Gojira have written something that never, ever sacrifices hooks for give-you-a-concussion heaviness. You can’t help but fucking head bang to this shit – the pounding march of the rhythm section <em>demands<\/em> that you head bang, God damn it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->And, oh yeah, no clean vocals. Vince keeps scolding me for turning into one of those cranky old dudes who hates clean vocals, but seriously, a lot of bands are fucking overusing them right now – I think they’re trying to rebel against screaming being “in” for most of the the 21st Century so far – and, maybe even worse, using them in the wrong ways. Joe Duplantier fucking screams his ass hoarse, and the song is better off for it.<\/p>\n<p>“Vacuity” is streaming on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/gojira\" target=\"_blank\">Gojira’s MySpace page<\/a> right now. The band’s new album, <em>The Way of All Flesh<\/em>, comes out October 13. Holy shit I can’t wait to hear this fucking album.<\/p>\n<p>-AR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>“Vacuity,” the new song by Gojira, might be my favorite
