#66: The Philosophy of Gojira; Examining Tera Icognita

What this episode covers

This week we do a deep dive on Gojira's debut album, Terra Icognita. It's pretty remarkable that even from the opening album the band already was writing deep lyrical examinations of humanity and our relationship with the natural world. Most bands eventually grow into deeper meanings, but Gojira was there right from the start. Let's examine the album together!Heavy Metal Philosophy Contact;https://www.spreaker.com/show/[email protected]://mobile.twitter.com/heaviestdoyenhttps://www.facebook.com/HeaviestDoyenhttps://www.instagram.com/heavy_metal_philosophy/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh2KCIU5z_F6DRH05xHsJMA#gojira #metal #existentialism #environmentalism #universe #philosophy #death
