French heavy metal giants Gojira's seventh studio album Fortitude was voted the #1 Album of 2021 by both Metal Hammer and Revolver. Released on April 30, 2021 via Roadrunner Records, the album debuted at #12 on the Billboard 200—the band's highest chart position ever—selling 27,372 units in its first week. It topped the Billboard Hard Rock Albums and Top Rock Albums charts, marking Gojira's first appearance in the top ten charts of nine countries.
Recorded and produced by lead vocalist Joe Duplantier at the band's Silver Cord Studio in Ridgewood, Queens, and mixed by Andy Wallace (Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine), Fortitude urges humanity to imagine a new world. The album continues Gojira's tradition of environmental activism with songs like the Grammy-nominated "Amazonia" and "The Chant" not only surveying critical issues but catalyzing listeners to take action. The title reflects Duplantier's intention "to inspire people to be the best version of themselves and to be strong no matter what."
