When I was on the MetalSucks podcast last week, I discussed my favorite albums of 2016 so far and at the top of the list was Gojira's Magma. Yes, I know it hasn't officially come out yet, but I've all but worn out my press copy because this album is sofa king good.
So far, we've heard two new Gojira songs, the riff-tastic "Stranded" and the equally awesome "Silvera." Over the weekend, the band officially premiered another new track off Magma, “The Shooting Star” on the June 12th, on BBC Radio 1's Rock Show With Daniel P Carter.
You can stream the track at about 1:36:00 at this location. I also happened to find a radio rip on Youtube, but who knows how long this will be up. Update: Official audio now streaming below…
The wait will be over soon enough as Gojira's Magma comes out this Friday, June 17th. You can pre-order the album for as low as $8.99 here.
Make sure to check out our interview with Gojira about Magma as well as a tour of their new studios.
