GOJIRA: NEW ALBUM WILL BE CALLED L’ENFANT SAUVAGE, OUT JUNE 26

UPDATE, 12:38pm EDT: The title of the opening track is “Explosia,” not “Explode” as previously listed.

Gojira have announced L’Enfant Sauvage as the title of their new album (“The Wild Child” in French), due via Roadrunner on June 26th, according to a post on their official website.

Joejira had the following words of wisdom to offer about the album title:

When you become a musician, you don’t have a boss telling you what to do so you have to be very responsible. With freedom comes responsibility so I’m asking myself, ‘What is freedom? What does it mean to me?’ L’Enfant Sauvage reflects on that. There’s no answer though. There’s just life and questions.

A special collector’s package of L’Enfant Sauvage will feature two bonus tracks and a double-colored vinyl version of the record, along with an exclusive t-shirt. Pre-orders will be available shortly.

Here’s the tracklist:

1. Explode Explosia
2. L’Enfant Sauvage
3. The Axe
4. Liquid Fire
5. The Wild Healer
6. Planned Obsolescence
7. Mouth Of Kala
8. The Gift Of Guilt
9. Pain Is A Master
10. Born In Winter
11. The Fall
