Gojira unveil trippy video for “The Shooting Star”

Since the release of Magma earlier this year, Gojira are four for four with music videos. First came the sepia-toned video for “Stranded,” followed by the surreal “Silvera,” which featured bodies flying upwards against a backdrop of Manhattan. The haunting video for “Low Lands” featured the French house the Duplantier brothers grew up in. And today, the band released a clip for “The Shooting Star” to go along with their tour that kicks off tomorrow. The video, directed and animated by Markus Hofko, is beautifully shot. There’s a surreal landscape, animation projected onto the band while they play, and the whole clip magnifies the chugging midtempo groove of the song. Check out the tour dates below.
