I disagree with the hate on this one. [2] grower album, it gets better everything I listen to it. definitely different to gojira's classic albums but still very coherent to their creative approach, completely disagree that this was a commercial attempt to sound "softer" or smth like that, it's just a different direction. into the storm, sphinx and grind are underrated gems

...I do find myself listening to that duo a lot despite wtf-ing it initially. We've now made peace and swap soup recipes & casserole dishes over the fence.

Honestly, this album feels like their weakest yet, both in content and sound. The guitars and drums have gone soft, and you can hardly hear the vocals in 'Born For One Thing' and a few others. 'Fortitude' and 'Chant' are just the most boring and primitive Gojira songs ever. 'Magma' was melodic too, but it had a way better sound.

Eh.. I'm still spinning this and having a fun time doing it more than a year later. Very "meat n' potatoes" groove with a dash of prog seasoning. Also, in 2022 "mainstream rock/metal" is a oxymoron; it's laughable to imply this has mass appeal outside of metal audiences.

This is the death metal equivalent of Metallica's Load. Mindless drivel, attempting to sway the mainstream and absolutely missing the mark on every level. Lets hope Gojira corrects course with the next album, or theyre dead in the water, bleeding out.

However commercial and plain Load ended up being, we should admit it has some good number of bops. That wasn't the case of Reload imo

Gimme Foo gimme fai il yababababababa. True, it was still a disappointment compared to their thrash albums.

Well, yea, in comparison to their earlier albums or garage inc which is released after load, load kinda dulls

Agree on this. Leaving aside any "betrayal of thrash" issue (happened earlier anyway), I'd leave maybe King Nothing or Wasting My Hate if I was to release it in an aim to please any "alternative" audience. But Reload was a complete disaster in terms of any contents, with Unforgiven II paving the way for their stylistic self-destruction through an utter cliché.

A bit inconsistent, but it's genuinely brave releasing a hopeful album during these times. Grind kicks my ass and cures my depression back to back.

Sarcoma is a much better example of prog death metal release this year = https://www.last.fm/music/Alluvial/Sarcoma

Generally thought it was a pretty good album, definitely gives me a lot of Magma vibes with some of the songs.

Magma (the song one) was one of the most boring things I've ever heard. It's really hard to reach that level.

This is a good album. Do you like this album more than Magma? Still has not listened enough.

o álbum mantem as raízes do gojira, muitos riffs lembram álbuns passados ao mesmo tempo que dão um ar de novo pra banda, confesso q sinto falta da bateria parecendo uma metralhadora mas isso não torna o álbum ruim, na vdd eh muito bom ver uma banda explorar novas ideias sem perder sua essência. 9/10

Not bad. I like how Gojira tries to evolve and all but I also wish they'd bring back some of the good old heaviness.
