Gojira Release Official Video From Their Grammy-Nominated, Olympic Games Single 'Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!)'

Acclaimed French metal band Gojira have unveiled the official music video for their GRAMMY®-nominated single "Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!)", captured during their jaw-dropping performance at the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. 

“Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!)” is currently nominated for Best Metal Performance at the upcoming 67th Annual GRAMMY® Awards, marking the band’s fourth GRAMMY® nomination to date.

Gojira made history as the first metal band ever to perform at the Olympic Games during this past summer’s star-studded opening ceremony which also included performances by Lady Gaga and Celine Dion. Working with composer Victor le Manse and French-Swiss mezzo-soprano Marina Viotti, the quartet injected their signature heavy riffs and punishing rhythms into the French Revolution-era song “Ah! Ça ira!.” Joined by Viotti and nearly 300 classical musicians, Gojira performed from the windows of Paris’ iconic Concierge amidst a grand spectacle of pyrotechnics, making international headlines and being widely regarded as one of the most talked about moments from the 2024 Summer Olympics.
