Gojira frontman Joe Duplantier was interviewed by Lithium Magazine at the Heavy TO festival earlier this month. He talks about a variety of subjects, including the cancelled Lamb of God tour, Gojira‘s future plans, the creative mindset behind the band’s new album L’Enfant Sauvage, and more.
Someone named Raphael Mandra made a video for Gojira‘s “Born in Winter,” from their latest album L’Enfant Sauvage, and we were so impressed we felt we had to share it with you. Fan-made videos are frequently made with lots of love but not much actual technique, but this guy really put something special together – it fits the mood of the song perfectly. Check it out below, and visit his blog to see other clips he’s done.
