Every Gojira album has its own certain personality, its own certain theme of sorts. While the musical formula generally remains the same - the whole progressive/death/groove sound has been their signature since the beginning - the atmosphere is the thing that often changes with every release. This has become even more apparent on their later releases; for instance, The Way Of All Flesh is a much colder and darker album that deals with the concept of death in its various forms and guises. And then there's the incredibly expansive From Mars To Sirius, which revels in combining brutal riffs with environmental lyrics and more spacious arrangements. But as far as I'm concerned, the most unique vibe we've ever gotten out of Gojira was the tribal feel that encompasses The Link. I mean, it's right there in the name of the album... The Link. More specifically, the sound of the record seems to link the primal qualities of ancient folklore and minimalist percussion with the intense prog-death riffage we're used to from Gojira.

If the sound quality was better , many many people would appreciate it more Indians , Death of Me , Wisdom Comes and Remembrance are gems in their discography
