Stranded

"Stranded" is a track by French heavy metal band Gojira, featured on their sixth studio album Magma, released on 17 June 2016 through Roadrunner Records. The album marked a stylistic shift toward a more atmospheric and accessible sound compared to the band's earlier work. For electric guitar players, "Stranded" offers an entry point into Gojira's signature blend of heavy riffing and textured, dynamic playing styles that rewards both technique and feel.

  • Magma was produced by guitarist Joe Duplantier and recorded at the band's own studio in New York City.
  • The track runs approximately 4 minutes and 29 seconds, giving guitarists a substantial workout across its arrangement.
  • Magma was dedicated to the Duplantier brothers' mother, Patricia, who passed away during the album's recording in 2015.

Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier

Joe Duplantier's signature tone engine, the Dual Rectifier delivers the thick, saturated low-mid grunt defining Gojira's rhythm sound while allowing articulate pick attack. Run at moderate gain, it lets dynamic playing intensity shape aggression rather than artificial overdrive.

ISP Decimator Noise Gate

Essential for Gojira's palm-muted riffing, the ISP Decimator keeps silence truly silent at high gain, allowing Joe and Christian to control feedback and achieve the tight, percussive attack their songs demand without unwanted noise.

Boss TU-3 Chromatic Tuner

Critical for maintaining stable tuning during aggressive picking and drop-tuned riffing, the TU-3 keeps both guitarists locked in across Gojira's heavy, rhythmically complex arrangements where tuning drift would compromise the band's signature tightness.
