Gojira have released a lyric video for their new single Into The Storm, another taste of their forthcoming album Fortitude.
“This song is infused with the concept of civil disobedience,” explains vocalist/guitarist Joe Duplantier. “Acting accordingly with our deepest wisdom and standing for what is precious and good in this world. The only possible revolution is the one that blossoms from within us. Change will come from individuals. Laws are meant to be bent and shaped to our vital needs. LAWS WILL FOLLOW!”
Fortitude is due for release on 30th April 2021 via Roadrunner Records, available to pre-order HERE.
Into The Storm follows Gojira‘s previous single Amazonia. The band launched a fundraising initiative alongside the single, to benefit The Articulation of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (APIB), who advocate for environmental and cultural rights of indigenous tribes in the Amazon who have suffered immensely – victims of deforestation, land loss, forced labour, violence, and harassment. Find out more about APIB HERE.
Gojira have teamed up with Propeller to curate a month-long charitable campaign, featuring an auction of one-of-a-kind items from the band and their friends. Having raised $120,000 to date, the auction includes a Joe Duplantier signature guitar hand-engraved by Duplantier with artwork celebrating Amazonian wildlife, a hand-engraved Nash Guitars bass from Metallica’s bass player Robert Trujillo and his artist wife Chloe Trujillo, a signed exclusive photo print from Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe, a limited edition Rockhard Slayer motorcycle helmet, and more. Each week new items will be added to the auction – to see the current auction listings, head to Gojira‘s Propellar page HERE.
