Metal behemoths Gojira will embark on their first headline tour of the U.S. this winter, with The Devin Townsend Project and The Atlas Moth serving as support.  The band’s Roadrunner debut L’Enfant Sauvage was released in June of this year to much critical acclaim.

Fans who pre-order tickets before December 1 will be rewarded for their early support. They will receive an instant download of two exclusive live tracks (“Love” and “Toxic Garbage”) from the band’s special NYC show at Webster Hall, which was recorded in August of 2012, along with a download of a full show from the band’s current European tour.  The full show will be provided via email at a later date.

Seeing Gojira in the live realm ~ where they are known to be absolutely devastating and able to shake the foundation of the venues in which they play ~ is an experience like no other.
