RE: Gojira can't reproduce their own music live... bleh!
Well i suppose you would know better than me since you shred and I do not. You ever notice how all of these videos doing tippy taps feature people sitting? Maybe Gojira can't get their hands on any stage chairs. I'd ask for that throne they gave to Axl Rose when he broke his leg.
I can understand not wanting to play a song live because you are sick of doing it but they have NEVER played this song live. I think that kind of eliminates the "oh we've played that one out" defense.
By the way I've really been digging Archspire recently.
I mean, I don't think it's really about a played out defense. Maybe they just consider that song to be a filler track from that album and don't look back fondly on it so they don't play it live. A lot of modern metal musicians are streaming in their free time these days, and I have heard a good handful of them talk about certain tracks always just being there to fill up a gap they had on the length of the album, as well as having favorites/least favorite tracks from each album. If I wrote a song that I just thought was kind of meh, I probably wouldn't play it live since I'd assume most people also think it's kind of meh.
And, noiceee. I always enjoy the instrumental work from them since it's always pretty wild.
