This sounds like a happier version of the shooting star, I like this

Gojira with a dedicated solo and Joe’s soft vocals? Love it

Imagine the entire crowd singing this together at the beginning of their show like Metallica uses the ecstasy of gold. Dying to see them live again.

Can we all take a moment to acknowledge Jean-michel as the unsung hero of this album? His bass fills add so much depth to every song they've released thus far

This feels like a happy sequel to "shooting star"

A band that's kept the same line up for 20 years, while evolving their sound, is awesome. One of the best bands of all time and one of my favorites.

Fuck me, first we had choruses, then cleans and now The Chant gifts us a guitar solo? What is this madness? I'm going to be humming this chant all bloody day now!

This album will be amazing

They released half of the álbum before the official release. They are more anxious than us

Guitar solos? Cowbell? Incredible soft vocals? This song feels like a dream.

In such sad and depressing times, GOJIRA gives you hope and fills your heart with life.

interesting how there is no stress when you are listening to gojira

I see Gojira. I immediately open. 🔥

That guitar solo is making me question reality. Do whales even fly? Are whales even real? Is Joe really angry? Is LaBadie really happy? Is Mario really evil? Does Boing really boing?

The trasition from Fortitude to The Chant is wayy too smooth. I immediately got chills the first time I heard it

When you experiment in your sound and it ACTUALLY works

They are gonna release the whole album in singles before it comes out, not that I can complain about that

IS THAT A GUITAR SOLO?? Fortitude is really something else man

Probably the most peaceful track they've ever released, it soothes the soul and helps me relax 😊

Soft vocals? Guitar solo? Major key? No breakdown? Still slaps!

Those initial background vocals mixed with the crunchy guitars remind me so much of 2000s SOAD its crazy!

Not gonna lie, thousands of people singing to this would actually be awesome live

This song helped me pass my driving exam, literally

I swear to god I’ve heard this song in a dream before. No band in this world comes close to Gojira in my eyes.

while i miss songs like heaviest matter of the universe, this is still a gojira style song

My grandfather passed yesterday. This is the sound I needed to hear to help me. 1925-2021

gojira never deceive me . It's just the best band of the world.

This song made me cry tears of joy. For 5 minutes my crippling PTSD and depression allowed me a glimpse of joy. What a band.

hearing joe singing is something beautiful

I am at peace knowing Gojira is just doing what they like to do. This doesn't remotely sound like commercial music, it's more accessible but not more commercial. Everyone seems to forget Gojira had softer songs on every single one of their albums, and as they evolve, they'll keep working towards newer sounds. No one can deny songs like Into the Storm or Amazonia weren't some great songs

You were told to swallow, crawl, and hide Victims of fear and deception Get a hold of yourself, rise above A better part of you, immortal May this spring flow in your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up You were told to swallow, crawl, and hide Victims of fear and deception Get a hold of yourself, rise above A better part of you, immortal May this spring flow in your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up You’re strong You’re strong You’re strong You’re strong You can run me high then climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom You can run me high then climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom You can run me high then climb up the sky Wake up, wake up You can run me high then climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom You can run me high then climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom

I can't compare this, or Gojira in general, to anything. It's just so much better than everything. The 30th of April will be a good day for humanity

Omg gojira at 1 AM is life 🔥🔥

This is a great example of how vocalists can sing great. And still make heavy screaming vocals without damage. That harmony in Joe's voice is great.

They are following Mastodon's footsteps. Gojira is great too

My son sent this to me tonight to encourage me through a medical procedure !! How cool is THAT!? And I live in Japan, home of Gojira! Life is good!!! Love this soothing chant!!

Damn, the variety on this album is killer. We got from heavy chonk, to boing boing metal to almost modern metalcore-ish to ...grunge?

Gojira will forever be my favorite band, no matter how much they change their style. Their music has helped me through so much, and I'm just glad that they're doing what feels right to them and expressing their inner world through their art. Thank you for being here Gojira🐳💚

Ptn les gars vous gérer .... C'est vraiment incroyable , pour moi l'album est pour l'instant un sans faute ! Vous imaginez pas à quel point j'ai hâte qu'il sorte en entier 😍

I've been going through a really rough patch in my life recently and this song could not have come to me at a better time. It made me cry the first few times I listened, but has helped give me the strength and courage to keep moving and do better. Thank you so much Gojira!

Merci Mario, Jean-Michel, Christian, Joe Merci Gojira d'exister

These guys are aging like goddamn fine wine, their music is immortal. LONG LIVE GOJIRA!

Gojira cada vez que saca una canción nueva significa que mis oidos tienen 10 años mas de vida

only discovered Gojira thanks to Justin Chanceller donation of his bass to their cause... Been listentnig to the old albums on the repeat and now this... I'm in love with Gojira!!! Keep up the good work, cant wait for the album

Ohhh slow and experimental. Whaleposting is gonna have a field day.

I'm glad that they're opening the door a bit stylistically and they're breaking out of the 'everything has to be violently heavy' trap that a lot of bands fall into. Honestly it's nice to see a band recognise their own unique sound and take it in a direction that isn't defined by what people expect from them. Variety is the spice of life you know?

This is soooooo good. This album really is shaping up to be a masterpiece. Well done. Can't wait to hear these live.

I thoroughly enjoyed the change in pace with this song. Lovely.

Just imagine 20/30 000 people at the concert: Ahhhhhhhhh Ohhhhhhhhh This is going to be FIRE! 🔥🤘🖤

This album seems like it’s going to have something for everyone on it.

this hits different, I love this song

The vocal pattern in the verse is exactly the same as shooting star...

3:05 We finally got a solo from Gojira

POV: nobody expect The Chant sounds like this

Thank you so much for making such epic and meaningful music for 20 years! This new record is shaping up to be a worthy entry into such a hallowed discography. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

The song and the video made me cry hard.

Sparked a fatty up, opened UKposts and saw another new Gojira song. What a time to be alive.

Isnt like normal Gojira. But they still pull it off flawlessly. Man, these guys are good.

Incredibly original.

Getting mad Mastodon vibes off this one, can’t wait for the full album.

Literally every song on this album sounds different, we have crazy pulls offs with Another World, a harmonic breakdown in BFoT, boing boing, crazy polyrhythms in Into The Storm and now we have guitar solos? This shit is fucking great, I'm tired of albums that have songs that all sound the same.

I feel like this song is out context. I feel like this song leads up to something more

Awesome! This is the only CD I ever preordered and can't wait any longer!!! The only album I don't have from them is the link, everyone one of their CD's are masterpieces

This song is truly wonderful: melody and blues come together.

Joe's clean voice is really beautiful.

Literally every single experiment they took with this didn't feel off and overall this song is a very brave and successful effort

This is a new level in their music: riffs, solos, chorus, atmosphere + aggression is still there. Eagerly looking forward to listen to the full album! 🤘

I cant wait for this to be played live... in front of a huge crowd

This album is really starting to feel like a Magma part 2.

wow, this could make a wonderful gig closer, just saying... you can really picture huge crowds singing along to this

This just keeps getting better... Good music when I really needed it!

Absolutely outstanding track!

Lyrics for anyone who wants them: Ahhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhh ahhh ahhhhh ahhhhh hhahhhh ahhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhh aaaaahhhhhh aaahh ahhhh aaaaahhhh ahhh ahhhhh ahhhh ohhhhhh ahhhhhh ahhh aaahhhhhh ohhhhhh

This has been a band that knows how to evolve. This is a great sign for their continued longevity.

the guitar tone is amazing, specially the solo 🤘

I need this album!

Gojira makes me feel like my soul has taken a shower.

April 30th can’t come soon enough!

Thanks Joe and Mario and co. This song came at a special time in my life where I needed the chant and I let it lift me up. Your music is powerful and healing in a way. I appreciate it very much Gojira, I know many others do too. Our world needs your expressive hearts to put emotions like this in song for us, the world. You are amazing, please never stop making music, it's a gift and we like it very much! Hearts need it. Keep on rocking! Yes! Thank you!

Love the vibez on this track!

Fantastic. Joe said that whereas Magma was dealing with loss, Fortitude was made with a feeling of joy. This song reverberates with it. I love looking at every song on this album through this lens.

I wasn't expecting this. You guys, you're the balanced mix of everything about art and humanity. As a literature student, I have written many lyrics of you in my favorite poem notebook. To me, we have been feeding on your songs just like a hummingbird feeds on diverse nectars. Go on Gojira, go on!

I haven't been this stoked for a new album in ages. Thank you Gojira!!!!

Did not expect this but it was actually really nice !

I am beyond stoned right now, and this is just clicking with me. I love this band so much. They offer every flavor of metal you could want, from the heaviest to the lightest, the saddest to the happiest, the most simple to the most complex. This song doesn't have a shred of br00tal to it, but the fact that they still can perform songs like Amazonia and then give us gems like this... it's the best thing ever. This band is one of the best.

God’s singing again.

AWESOME

I can't stop listening to this. Amazing.

The catchiest vocals in the universe

LET'S GO!!!

this album is amazing. Received from delivery today!

i love this band so much. thanks gojira you are all awesome!

I immediately opened this. The notification didnt even pop for more than 1 second. Hail gojira.

So different, Gojira can do no wrong.

every album they always add something new to the mix that always works so well. i dont know many other bands that can do it the way they do

Holy....... This is amazing...

it's the second song that i feel like a "part. 2" of some of their oldest songs. this sounds like a shooting star part.2 and into the storm reminds me liquid fire.

This album is going to be MASSIVE!

Emotional and personal!!!greaat

This song is so awesome! Listened to it like 10 times in past 2 days \m/
