Magma, Gojira's sixth studio album, was recorded primarily at Silver Dollar Sound studio in Astoria, Queens, New York, with additional recording at other facilities. The album was produced by the band themselves alongside Joe Barresi, an acclaimed engineer and producer known for his work with Queens of the Stone Age and Tool. The recording process emphasized a raw, organic approach to capturing the band's heavy sound, with particular attention to live instrumentation and minimal digital manipulation. Released in 2016, the album marked a significant moment in the band's career as they continued to refine their progressive metal sound while addressing themes of environmentalism and social consciousness. The production reflected the band's technical maturity and their commitment to creating sonically dense yet powerful recordings that showcased both their musical complexity and emotional intensity.
