It only seemed fitting to have Lemmy himself as the icon.

Absolutely beautiful post metal with Devin Townsend's divine vocals sending it all above everything else. Album released in 2003, linked is the fourth track. Gives big modern Gojira vibes, in its atmospheric sludgy-ness. I recently discovered this awesome music after actually checking out the dude's other stuff starting from Strapping Young Lad.

I bought this one when it came out and still listen to it regularly.

Can you recommend similar songs? I've never come across any that are even close to this.

Well I'd obviously recommend all of Devin's work, but if you want Devin Townsend-inspired sludginess, you can't go wrong with Tranzat : https://youtu.be/JkD2OcNYUnc

They can sound really (and I mean really) close to Devin : https://youtu.be/sLOWWygPh-s

Not really a specific song sorry, but maybe try checking out some of Opeth's music.

Dude I've been searching for the same! I cannot find anything even remotely similar outside of Gojira's Shooting Star
