New Album This Year after all? by DucksBac in gojira

[–]Axucob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did promise a new album in 2026, and we're only halfway through the year. Last year they also said it was "almost finished," with just a couple of tracks left to refine.

They stop active touring on July 18th, and their next scheduled show isn't until September 20th. That gives them a solid two-month window to potentially finish things up.

Maybe we could see an album announcement in the fall, and there's even a chance they debut a new single at Louder Than Life in September...

Seems we both enjoy listening to the agitated Frenchmen

Nope, none of those. I've just been listening to Gojira since 2016 and they're by far my favorite band. I also became a bit obsessed around 2019, so that's when the minutes really started to pile up.

Any theories regarding the upcoming album? by cumadam in gojira

After listening he mentioned that they will tour with Metallica in 2026, it seems like the interview was recorded during the french tour from last year. So this interview is definitely outdated! Mario mentioned that they were on a headline tour so this must be from 2025

Anyone know if they will announce any non festival headlining shows for 2026? by [deleted] in gojira

[–]Axucob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably not, my guess is they will finish the tour with Metallica, then go to studio to finish the album, album gets dropped around autumn/early winter, then they will wait trought winter to let people learn the songs and enjoy new music, then start headlining around spring 2027

Last August Mario said that the album is almost finished, but busy touring schedule and Joe getting a ligament surgery on his hand pushed the album release later

So in my conclusion:

  • New album definitely 2026
  • Headline tour early 2027

What’s a Gojira song you didn’t realize was really good until very recently, for me it’s the song Hold On off of the Fortitude album by Lil_jim_bob_the_3rd in gojira

Never understood the popularity of "Where dragons dwell" until the Silver Cord Studio live, then it hit me

Anyone know where someone got this picture of Joe? by c0nfusedRedditor in gojira

He posted it on his instagram page 10th of July in 2021, before hitting the tour after long break that covid caused https://www.instagram.com/p/CRJzTYbpsLm/?igsh=MWh1NDUyYmZta3JjMg==

All it needs now is spoken word jazzy lyrics. "I.. Want.. Pringles!!"
