Gojira is back, bay-bay! We're so excited for the release of their new album, Magma coming on June 17th. The only thing I am more excited about is seeing the band live again. Luckily, I'll get my chance this fall when the band returns to the North American touring scene and they are bringing those lovely UK djenters in Tesseract along with them.
The tour kicks off on Sept. 21st in Silver Springs, MD and wraps up about a month later in New York City.
