The all-conquering colossus that is Gojira have debuted their official music video for “Low Lands“.

Taken from their acclaimed chart topping new album Magma, the captivating video – directed by band members Joe and Mario Duplantier’s cousin, Alain Duplantier – was shot at the brothers’ family home in Ondres, France.

Joe Duplantier commented on the new visual stating, “It is an intimate and poetic piece directed by our dear cousin and friend Alain Duplantier. One of the ‘characters’ featured in this film is ‘Gayeres’ the family house where Mario and I grew up. We jammed to our first songs, started Gojira, and recorded most of our albums there. Our sister Gabrielle also contributed to the making of this video. We want to thank all the wonderful people who worked hard to make this happen and all our fans for supporting us with so much passion and respect. We hope you’ll enjoy the trip as much as we do.”

Last month Gojira returned with their widely acclaimed new LP Magma, taking the #1 spot on Billboard’s ‘Hard Rock Albums’ chart ,making them the first French band to hold the #1 spot on the chart in its nine year existence.
