French metallers GOJIRA have posted a 22-minute recap of their North American tour with MASTODON.
GOJIRA’s fifth album, L’Enfant Sauvage, sold almost 11,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 34 on The Billboard 200 chart. The band’s previous album, The Way Of All Flesh, opened with 4,200 units back in 2008 to land at No. 138.
L’Enfant Sauvage (which translates to The Wild Child) was recorded at Spin Recording Studios in Long Island City, New York with co-producer Josh Wilbur (LAMB OF GOD).
On March 11, GOJIRA released Les Enfants Sauvages, a limited edition 5″ x 7″, 60-page hardcover photo book chronicling the band’s journey around the world over the last two years, since the release of L’Enfant Sauvage. The images were taken around the globe, spanning over 150 shows on three continents, and were hand-selected by GOJIRA guitarist/vocalist Joseph Duplantier and his brother, drummer Mario Duplantier. The package also includes a live CD and DVD capturing last year’s performance at the legendary Brixton Academy in London, England.
