Gojira’s L’Enfant Sauvage is a classic of modern metal. It combines crushing riffs, complex rhythms, and philosophical depth into one heavy and captivating journey. In this episode, Parker listens to his first full metal album. Join him and Helaman through the wild, emotional, and earth-shaking world of L’Enfant Sauvage. We dive into the album’s reflections on freedom and change and explore how the band’s signature sound captures both brutality and beauty. Whether you’re a metalhead or a newcomer, join us as we break down one of the most powerful and poetic records of recent metal history.
In each episode of off Track podcast, one brother introduces a favorite project to the other brother, who has never heard it all the way through. We are both hip hop heads but we bring albums from all different genres, including both well known and more underground projects.
