BLOODYWOOD: Folk Metal, India, Bollywood & Making Dreams Reality | Garza Podcast 90

[@RebeIMate]

This podcast must be one of the most important things that has happened in metal scene in years... I mean honest and in-depth interviews with bands ranging from Cattle Decapitation to Bloodywood... I don't know how many people can appreciate this but personally I am really impressed and thankful for this amazing content 🙌

[@BetweenTheFog]

“What was it like being a corporate lawyer?” “Like taking a sh*t in a Wal-Mart.” They are now my favorite band for that quote alone.

Was not expecting this from the GOAT himself!! 🐐 thanks garza!!!

[@Whatreally123]

Rock/Metal was quite big in India till the early 2010s and had it's peak around the early 2000s. I was in my early 20s and had a ball of a time. Bangalore and Pune were sort of he hubs for metal. Unfortunately in Bangalore, metal is almost non-existent in the sense that no clubs or pubs are present anymore which used to play mental. I miss Purple Haze and Styx so much. But good to see band like Bloodywood doing well. I have been following them since their early days when they used to make comedic covers of metal/punjabi music and fantastic to witness their evolution. I caught them live in Bangalore in '22 and was amazing. Super performers and really cool and humble dudes.

[@anonymouslyopinionated656]

Styx was the place I really started drinking back in like 2004! Miss it! The scene in Bangalore-Chennai was alive till like the 2015 ish.

[@samnarvaez2]

completely lost track of Bloodywood, SO HAPPY to see this band on the pod. Fucking amazing

[@stefandesouza6994]

Demonic Resurrection, Gutslit, Darkrypt, Kill the king, Devoid, Godless, Bhayanak Maut, and a few more.. Great Indian Bands.!

[@Tomc_vodslam]

Gutslit are sick!

[@helenmuller9998]

The Downtroddence is another band from India that's worth checking out.

[@aonghasshearer-boyd1557]

Bkhayanak Maut fucking slaps!

[@jonathanMoonsorrow92]

The first India metal band I know only ragnchild and the second this band bloodywood

[@arbabasukalsar4361]

Yonsample, Chronic Xorn, Evil Conscience

[@mc-kay3294]

For fans of Bloodywood, there's another indian folk metal band called Dymbur, you should go check them out too

[@jaydeepsen4769]

@@mc-kay3294 I know about Dymbur from Shillong. I'm a metalhead from Kolkata.

[@ghostxhead]

This podcast was a delight. Vishesh is an incredible drummer, saw him smashing the gig with Bloodywood and with godless last year. Dint knew about his hand condition until now. He indeed is a beast behind that kit 🤘🏻💯 1:03:02

[@Grimeyhoob]

Not many people know this - 1. Kim Thayil - guitarist of Soundgarden is of Indian ancestry 2. Freddie Mercury of Queen - Zoroastrian Indian 3. Dave Baksh guitarist of Sum41 - Indian originally 4. Norah Jones - half Indian 5. bassist and keyboardist of No Doubt

[@youtubegoldmines]

I smell a pattern

[@paulmares9815]

Ok, what's your point?

[@Grimeyhoob]

@@paulmares9815 Bloodywood is Indian and we were talking about other famous Indian musicians. Get it now? Or need me to explain further

[@Grimeyhoob]

@@youtubegoldmines I smell your mutter. Poonpoon smells

[@SomeBlackGuy]

My wife and I were jamming to them the other night, which made me want to learn more about them, which led me to this episode. Kudos for having them on!

[@poser_disposer]

Super smart, and level headed dudes. Great listen for sure, thanks garza!

[@petemartyn]

No way!!! This makes me so happy.

[@heroizumi]

So far my biggest regret of 2023 was seeing Bloodywood in Pittsburgh, but not getting back out of my car when I saw them standing outside the venue's back door. I was so fucking tired and had to drive home to Cleveland ;__; Excellent podcast!! Thank you~!!

[@elf.2702]

what a bunch of amazing people! Great episode Garza! I was so happy when I saw you had Bloodywood as guests. Cheers from London, England!🙌

[@cr00kz]

This has turned into one of my favorite interviews you've had Garza. Been itching for BLOODYWOOD interviews and this fucking delivered. Thank you all!

[@neobeinghuman]

Their drummers hand story is off the charts.. Damn the resilience and fortitude to become the best !! Goosebumps !

[@routeshell]

WHAT. THE. FUCK?!? Bloody fucking wood!!! Duuude, nice! Garza rocks!

[@GreatBeardofWisdom]

Bloodywood are amazing, and I'm always pleased to see the Indian scene represented. It's not as big as other scenes, but the burning passion they have is awe-inspiring.

[@jonathanMoonsorrow92]

The first metal band i know from india only ragnchild and then i found this band bloodywood and india metal so good

[@zaulmartinez522]

Bloodywood One of the most fun bands I’ve seen this year, they go down on the pit and get involved with the audience . Garza getting all the dope bands in the show got to get Gojira and Vulvodynia next 🙏

[@Jorgetime]

Amazing pod, loved hearing their story.

[@faebruarie]

The last chapter is titled after Raoul who wasn't present, but the drummer (the one with the hand injury) is Vishesh 🫶

[@dastardlygonzo]

Love these guys! Been following them since 2018 and I got to see them live last year. They were amazing!

[@Outward777]

I freakin love this band. I had the pleasure of seeing them live in Portland and the show was such a magical and spiritual experience with good vibes all around. Such wholesome dudes.

[@reubenk7331]

Wow, I can't believe I haven't heard of them at all. Just checked out their KZbin and they have a shit ton of views! They are a lot bigger than I could have imagined. Really cool interview, and really interesting hearing Chris talk about the self titled. Holy shit the fact that he can play after that accident is insane!

[@ben10nnery]

I love their humor. The Wal-Mart and being dropped out by the college quotes had me rolling.

[@DD2JustCUZ]

Love this! 🤘💥

[@SonikGarcia]

Love the content. These guys deserve all the success they’re going through. Keep rocking the world guys. 👊

[@shaneskeffington998]

I saw bloody wood and suicide silence at welcome to Rockville 2023

[@ShauryaChawla12]

Being a metal drummer from new delhi, India!! I respect Vishesh!!! I love this band! You guys are a living success story! Jai hind and hail metal guys ✨🥁🤞🏻🤘🏻🧿🧿

[@BehappyBhairava]

such a bingeable podcast man... this one was great.. geddon bloodywood

[@nbu2022]

such a treat that bloodywood got on this podcast - big fan!!

[@autohmae]

59:58 I've heard the statistic the music you love when you are around 14 will stay without forever. But he put it much more elegantly.

[@noodle9621]

Saw them at download this year and they were easily in my top 5 favourite bands 🙌🏻

[@sumandutta4834]

Thanks for the podcast. Although metal has a very niche audience in India, Bloodywood made it much easier for casual listeners to explore the genre.

[@surabhikashyap241]

1:01:39 I was looking at his hand from the beginning. These guys are an inspiration.

[@tman_7582]

Look forward to this pod every week. Absolutely loved this one 👑 Garza 🤘

[@gothfather1]

Finally some North-Indian metal bands who are getting recognition!

[@mathewlombardo3876]

You know you're born to be in a band when you get in an accident and your first reaction to permanently losing fingers is "huh, this is pretty fucking metal"

[@jaydeepsen4769]

Dude's a born metalhead 😂

[@adamavilguitars]

Great inspiring interview❤

[@etooMee]

Wow, awesome guys!

[@makariussulit]

Would’ve loved for Vishesh to be more involved in the conversation.

[@joseestrada395]

[@GreenLight-cg1uz]

Bloodywood one the best, came across them few years before.

[@98romenningthoujam]

For the UG scene listen Tetragrammacide , Syphilectomy,Amorphia . This bands are tight

[@Rob_Cary]

Even if I've never heard of the band, I still watch the episodes cuz this podcast is the best. Requests: Josh Travis, Alex Terrible, Marc Okubo, Parker Cannon, DGD??

[@leoadrian2486]

they got recognition when steve T showed their song in his channel

[@fuad6280]

Surprised they didn't bring up Demonic Resurrection, Gutslit, Inner Sanctum, Godless, Dirge, The Down Troddence and other incredible underrated Indian bands. Cool to see them on the podcast, though.

[@ILuvCoconutWater]

I wanna meet em one day

[@arunchand1103]

Garza you should bring Slaughter to Prevail on the podcast when you can

[@sherinjohn001]

When Indians are talking they sound like motivational speakers , esp the guitarist.

[@Jmack7861]

You should get zak Vargas from Elysia on, I know you guys played together some back in the day and he’s planning on doing a re-release of masochist. A lot of us OG fans consider them one of the OG bands with you guys

[@genun12A]

poverty rate in america is 12.4% poverty rate in india 14% now i think its just mindset indians are not poor we are just busy with our rules and lives
