Bloodywood - Aaj (Indian Folk Metal)

U.S.A. MAY 2023 TICKETS: www.bloodywood...
Aaj is a song about the moment in time when you realise you have the strength to do what you have to do to become who you want to become. We all have our demons, our reasons to be stuck in a rut of harmful patterns and our fears of trying something new. This track is meant to act as a spark to light a fire within the listener to overcome all of that, it's about the fearless pursuit of the next level for as long as your heart continues to beat.
It marks the first occasion where the band has combined the Indian flute with electronic elements as well as the usual dose of heavy riffs, diabolical growls and powerful rap verses.

Dutch metalhead here. This is glorious. I work closely with a lot of Indian colleagues and I showed them this song. While it wasn't their cup of tea (not metalheads) there was a glimmer in their eyes. They had a sense of joy and pride to see that I embraced something from their culture. This song literally makes me bond with them despite being from opposite parts of the planet. Music transcends... thanks for this guys ❤️

[@cyrilvaneijkelenburg3743]

I'm from indian heritage through Suriname (parents) born and living in Amsterdam . I was introduced to this band recently by youtuber Stevie T and this is the second song I've heared from them. This is amazing. "Transform into the final form and knock it out . Kaioken ! " That's dragonball bars. And the flute and the woman singing at the end. These guys aren't just another metalband copying everyone else, they are reinventing metal . I am however still trying to figure out what dialect this is , when I use google translate I don't get the same translation as they have in the video. Similar happened with my father (he speaks urdu fluently). Found it, it's not Urdu but Hindi , too bad because I was hoping this was urdu so that I can learn some of the language.

@@django1502 That's what I said. I was hoping it was Urdu , as I already mentioned in previous message I want to learn Urdu but the translation in Urdu is very different from Hindi.

И еще один привет из России (Москва). Сначала слушала по приколу каверы от Bloodywood, но что ни кавер, то шедевр, гораздо круче оригинала. И сразу было понятно, что если ребята умеют ТАК классно и со вкусом переделать, то свое будет вообще огонь! Не ошиблась! Очень качественная музыка во всех смыслах, даже сравнивать с кем-либо бесполезно, Bloodywood вы прекрасны сами по себе, есть свой стиль и узнаваемое звучание. Как же круто, что столько талантливых людей нашли друг друга. С удовольствием слушаю каждую песню. Пожалуйста, продолжайте! And one more greetings from Russia (Moscow). At first I listened to Bloodywood covers for fun, but every cover was a masterpiece, much cooler than the original. And it was immediately clear that if the guys know how to remake SO cool and with taste, their own music will be ingenious! I didn't make a mistake! Very high quality music in every sense, it's even useless to compare with anyone, Bloodywood you are beautiful, you have your own style and recognizable sound.

I've been to multiple countries and many different places, and I have found this to be the case everywhere. Metal isn't that popular anywhere compared to pop, rap, country, gospel, etc. Metal is my favorite genre, but most people don't relate to it and freak out as soon as any heavy sounds begin and demand you turn it off then they turn on their pop. Every day, I only hear rap and pop when cars drive by. If anything, you'll usually hear rock before you'll hear someone playing metal most the time. I have to actually ask people if they listen or like metal music and most say no or what's metal music. Although I would imagine India doesn't have much metal bands compared to many other countries.

Same here in America. Rock was huge in the 2000s, but ever since the 2010s it's been waning in popularity. Now it's pretty much all manufactured pop music or really terrible soundcloud rappers. That's one reason why I love Bloodywood so much, they remind me _a lot_ of the bands I listened to as a teenager.

[@jesse9616]

Nothing wrong with pop but let me just say nothing can hold these guys back now. They will be a global act, mark my words.

[@MusTelOJ]

@@jesse9616 I don't know about other countries but I could say Indian Pop Songs are definitely very bad, like the lyrics repeat everytime, the Singer is too cringe and uses heavy Autotune for Everything, the lyrics are so bad and doesn't even makes sense, has just killed other Genres.

Today was a bad day. My struggles with self-loathing and self-doubt hit me really hard today. Then this song came to me in my YT suggestions. I liked the song before, but it was exactly what i needed to hear at exactly that moment. Thank you, Karan, Jayant, Raoul, Sarthak, Roshan, and Vishesh. From the bottom of my heart. You were there for me exactly when i needed someone to be.

[@jessicapalmer3455]

Keep fighting beloved! There's no mistaking that the song was shown to you in that moment for a reason. Are you still doing ok? 💙💙

[@randomnerdery6511]

@@jessicapalmer3455 Thank you, I'm in a much better place mentally today. This song has kind of become my personal anthem in a lot of ways. You're 100% correct that this song found its way to me that day for a reason: this song literally saved my life. It's now tattooed on my wrist to remind me, every day, of that moment, hating myself, feeling unloved & useless, BloodyWood lifted me up, reminded me that no matter how much we have dealt with every day of our lives, TODAY we can choose to not put up with that any more, TODAY we can choose to be better. None of us are perfect. I've stumbled, but this song reminds me that I just need to make that choice to be better, TODAY.

[@uglytv3417]

35 years a musician myself (mostly violin); huge fan of The Snake Charmer, who brought me here. Jayant's vocals are like nothing I've ever heard. The range from absurdly deep growls to grainy chest voice singing is bonkers, and all of it is so full of emotion. I think he is my favorite vocalist at present, in any band (you beat Floor from Nightwish, if only narrowly). To put that much soul into a scream....it is really impressive. Also I know Vishesh catches a lot of flak for not looking as cool as the rest of you, but that guy can PLAY. Damn. Raoul, you are absolutely killing it on Dana Dan. You remind me of a cross between RATM and Limp Bizkit's vocalists. I've seen you evolve the most over y'all's KZbin career (been following for a couple years now) and I love where you're headed. And Karan--as I understand it, you write and produce all of this in addition to playing guitar like a beast as well as (apparently) the flute? Keep up the great work, man. Wow.

[@DemonLordRaiden]

Dana Dan is the PERFECT track for Raoul. Have you heard his solo, pre-Bloodywood rap? A lot of it's very angry and political (much like de la Rocha in RATM) and you can see that energy on display on Dana Dan tenfold.

[@drago939393]

@@DemonLordRaiden I think he is totally fine in their moodier/more folk tracks, but he definitely shines in the more intense ones.

The main chorus is killer. The Today I am reborn part in that high vibrato killed it

[@StupidusMaximusTheFirst]

Yeah, I think the song could be better, but oh man that chorus!!! I was just listening again and again just for that bit!!! Disclaimer: I don't listen to metal all that much, unless it's something really good. Bloodywood is bloody amazing. I think they could spend some more time with the lyrics, not just the chorus, which is awesome. Don't be afraid to use your own language (just wow - I think I need to learn some indian), which I prefer in the chorus than the english lyrics. Lose that(the?) chick. She doesn't fit. The music is amazing, and the flute just magical. I never bother with videos, I just listen to the music, I usually say that videos are unnecessary and most times are just meh they could be just skipped. Not this time!!! Not this time... the video could be even more awesome, although it's still quite good. The rapping dude needs to lose the army t-shirt I think and wear something that fits, the rest are wearing something like..is this traditional chinese or it could be indian I don't know. The lead singer is just awesome, especially in the chorus, that energy, it's one of those songs where you just have to watch the video too, not just listen to the song. And he's extremely talented and this would be even more apparent without the fast-pace death metal lyrics parts, if these parts were more melodic I mean, just like the chorus is. Just a really amazing band I'm happy to find on youtube. If anyone reads this and don't agree, that's fine it's just personal prefs, I could be totally wrong, and obviously I meant no disrespect to a really talented group. I just wanna see more of them really.

No credit due for jayant bhaiya for the energy and emotions via his powerful scream and Hindi punchlines, Raoul bhaiya doing amazing rhymes like he is having Bohemia in morning and Eminem in evening as his food,, sarthak bhaiya obviously on his dhol giving that very Indian Punjabi touch, roushan bhaiya going all crazy on warm beers and killing it on bass and vishesh bhaiya is obviously the Indian Joey jordison. Together they are wonderful and I m pretty sure the headliners for major metal concerts around the globe. ❤️🔥
