Gojira Premieres Video For "L'Enfant Sauvage"

New album out June 26

Back in April Pitchfork debuted the title track from Gojira's forthcoming fifth album L'Enfant Sauvage, and today Brooklyn Vegan has premiered the new video for the same song. Not much information has been divulged as to who was behind the hypnotic, jittery, stop-motion piece, but it's an interesting clip that touches on the French band's usual environmentalist themes. And besides, as you probably know by now, the song itself is superb, as Joe Duplantier and Gojira continue to expand their sound while at the same time retaining that familiar core sound that has endeared the band to many people over the last five or six years.


L'Enfant Sauvage (the album) will be released June 26 on Roadrunner.
