Gojira 'The Shooting Star' Radio Performance Video Released

(Metal Hammer) Footage of Gojira's performance of The Shooting Star live on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show has been released. The French metal outfit performed live at the Maida Vale studios in London for the BBC. Watch them playing The Shooting Star below.

Shooting Star appeared on Gojira's latest album Magma, which was released earlier this year. Frontman Joe Duplantier this week told Metal Hammer that the band were aiming for somewhere between "super-extreme death metal" and "something super progressive" on the follow-up to Magma.

He said: "We started something with Magma that I want to take further. The progressive and lyrical aspects are something I want to dig into a little more. It's not going to be a drastic change - we're not going to turn into a super-extreme death metal band or something super-progressive. It's going to be somewhere in between.

"We have a lot of riffs and ideas floating around. I don't have a clear vision of where we're going to go, but I think the music will take us there, when we start jamming. Hopefully we're going to be surprised. In a good way." Watch the video footage here.
