Great band. Like being pummeled by a machine.

I absolutely love their new album. Saw them live in Chicago before System and they rocked the place down. I enjoy them alot

I recently became a fan. It's groove metal but they have their own sound.

One of the most intense live acts I have ever seen.

Supposedly, all four members play completely sober and therefore produce some of the tightest and most consistent performances in metal.

When it comes to heavy progressive music, they can go toe-to-toe with just about any band in the past 20 years.

I really like their sound, but I need my face melted here and there.

They're alright. I don't like them as much as the critics seem to.

One of these best current metal bands around right now and an insanely good live band. Still think Magma was a little overrated though

Definitely one of the best metal bands around these days.

The number one show I feel like I missed out on in life was Opeth, Gojira, and Devin Townsend Project at Red Rocks. That may be been the sickest metal lineup ever in the most amazing venue in North America.

That Opeth show was filmed for the Garden of the Titans dvd, which is all on youtube and definitely worth watching. LINK

The last album was a let down but I still rock out to Gojira often.

Yep, started listening to them because of Mario’s drumming. He is a human metronome and the fills are so damn clean. I still need to see them live, finally might get the chance next month.

One of my favorites

I post new songs of deathcore all the time -- not that these guys are deathcore, but I like them. It's a required ear from what I'm used to.

That's your opinion -- and that's fine. We can agree to disagree.

They are opening for Slipknot in Dallas in 3 weeks. I’m pissed because it’s 9/7 and that’s the night of the Texas game.

That’s a really tough show to miss but I wouldn’t be able to enjoy knowing LSU and Texas are playing at the same time.
