Background

In November 2014, Gojira relocated to New York City and construction began on their own music studio in Queens.[1] By April 2015, the studio was complete and the band began recording music.[1] However, recording of the album was put on hold when the mother of band members Joe Duplantier and Mario Duplantier fell ill and died.[1] The band spent some time touring before returning to studio to continue recording.[1] Mixing of the album was completed in February 2016.[2]

Release

Magma is scheduled to be released on 17 June 2016, via Roadrunner Records.[3] On 22 April 2016, the band released an official video for the track "Stranded".[3]
