Sound Engineers REACT | Bloodywood - Gaddaar

[@taihavard]

Bloodywood is just a play on Bollywood, but you know, just more metal.

[@Robert_Herring]

Bloodywood are the real deal. One of the most intense concerts I've ever attended was in Dallas with a bunch of Americans screaming in Hindi. They have a documentary called "Raj Against The Machine" about how they stormed and killed at Wacken. They have been unsigned most of their existence (rumor is that's changing. Karan, the guitarist, is the primary music writer, with Raoul (English rapper) and Jayant (Hindi rapper and harsh vocalist) adding lyrics. They only have one album and it slaps. They are very socially conscious and truly have hearts of gold. If you want heavier, check "Dana Dan", if you want a tear jerker, "Yaad". Both are fantastic, just in vastly different ways. The "Yaad" video includes a segment after the music video that will shine a light on the character and soul of these wonderful people.

[@AGDinCA]

Welcome to the fan family, gentlemen! I just love it when Bloodywood surprises people. I admit, it's hard to know what to expect before you hear them for the first time.

[@giordani64]

Sick band. Thanks for bringing them to our attention

[@caralynn.]

This band is amazing, they also produce and film their own stuff, and have very important and often uplifting messages. Dana Dan for something hard, Aaj for uplifting. You actually cannot go wrong but some will make you cry.

[@Trelokor1]

Specially Yaad will make you cry. Not sure if I have seen one reaction that could go through that one without getting emotional.

[@caralynn.]

@@Trelokor1 Yeah, I can't in good conscious recommend it. I have a very ridiculous cat that has made me laugh every single day since she moved in eight years ago. And I have been super burnt out and depressed on so many of those days. You can't dump all that on someone on song two.

[@saschaleopold4170]

@@caralynn. I lot one of my cats last year and the second one earlier this year. In the 14 years before they have been there for me in so many bad times. For me that song, while it makes me cry every time, it also brings me much joy. Also a few lines of that song became part of my first tattoo.

[@caralynn.]

@@saschaleopold4170 They just seem like such incredible people. Especially considering in Gaadar, I think, a street dog scares the shit out of Karan and he includes it at the end of the video in slo-mo. So funny and also so kind.

[@dasstigma]

"But some will make you cry." Nicely stated like the fact of life it is.

[@nrwl23]

Bloodywood are so musically excellent and inspirational too. Love them.

[@Danny_chew]

Check out their song Dana Dan. It’s about beating up SA suspects. It’s badass.

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

Be sure to turn on CC for Dana Dan! It's the hardest track on Rakshak & very badass!

[@IdiotPosterBoy]

No it's not. It's about SA perpetrators, not SA suspects. A huge and crucial difference.

[@TheStoryOfRei]

A friend of mine is a huge fan of these guys, and I keep meaning to give them a listen, so thanks for the opportunity.

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

Don't stop here! This band is totally worth the deep dive!

[@veriahl]

Not only are they a great band but they are also great human beings. Getting involved in social causes and keeping their lyrics real.

[@seachangelezzie]

Had the pleasure of seeing Bloodywood live at the Novarock festival in Austria, i travelled 23 hrs on a plane from sydney Australia to attend the festival, mostly to see nightwish, and left with Bloodywood as my fave performance of the whole festival, they made the trip worth it. The crowd went wild! They are hugely popular on the european metal scene, anf have played at Wacken open air

[@cookiemobers5650]

In my 63 years, I haven't seen a band in a long time that has the positive energy that Bloodywood brings. Live they are one of the best bands I've ever seen.

[@bjornpaulsen6410]

This Band is Fire also the other Titles of them ;-)

[@ilovepinktacos]

Dholka the Dhol is the 2 sided drum

[@judyschoonmaker7758]

These guys go hard! 😊

[@RajunCajunTWA]

I have this on vinyl LP. My next mission is to have then sign it. Boss!

[@RippedPixels]

Bloodywood are brilliant live! Great reaction guys! Big Love

[@Jason-Taylor]

Just hearing of these guys for the first time. Awesome! I think that drum is a Dholaka but not sure. I would guess Bloodywood is a play on Bollywood which is essentially one of the largest if not the largest film industries out of India.

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

The 2-sided drum is a dhol. & you are correct. Bloodywood is a metal play of words on Bollywood, which is a play on Hollywood 🙂

[@Wishi13]

The Indian movie industry is pretty big and very productive. It's slang name is Bollywood (after Hollywood). So, I believe Bloodywood is a play on the Bollywood theme or an unflattering statement about that industry - especially after seeing the lyrical nature of this particular song. The drum is a Mridangam. Bhangra Music/Punjabi EDM/Desi Beat - brings Indian folk and various dance music styles together using traditional Indian rhythms and instruments with modern instruments and techniques. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gH3VhJiEjZyfos0 This had elements of that style but with the hard metal element to it instead of dance. I've seen this video before, and love it. By the way, I'm from the UK myself but not of Indian heritage - I lived in an area that had a large community, and a few Indian friends along the way!

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

Definitely do the deep dive on this band! Every song on their debut, self-produced album Rakshak is amazing! I suggest Aaj next. It's their anthem song. & then check out Dana Dan (turn on CC) to get your faces ripped off.. in the best way 😆

[@mascha28swinkels]

Karan does not only play the guitar like a whirlwind but also plays a much smaller and ethereal instrument ( try Aaj for that 😊 ) please and thank you

[@denvik]

thanks a ton for this reaction, kindly next endurant of bloodywood

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

My personal favorite, but sadly overlooked by most reactors despite having a clever, touching video.

[@denvik]

@@B.WaRnEd2124 honestly i found it very surprising that endurant type of videos are not appreciated much, where ice spice kinda go viral

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

@denvik you know Bloodywood is going to start releasing music from their 2nd album soon? I believe the first song should drop this month. I can't wait! 😁

[@liamcollinson5695]

I really fell in love with bloodywood the guitarist is also surprisingly good with a flute too which I really didn't expect particularly on Aaj

[@deathstar013]

I get to see them in May and I'm so excited!

[@nicci4724]

Aaj!!! You gotta watch that. And Dana Dan. Turn subs on for that one.

[@bakasai449]

Bloodywood is great. You should listen to "Dana Dan" and "Aaj"

[@autohmae]

They are also amazing live

[@jgraaay18]

Second this. They opened with Gaddaar last time I saw them; it's crazy good for kicking a set off with.

[@vasilfilipov4877]

Thanks for the reaction, they are very good. I think you should check the song Aaj, you'll be blown,my opinion is their best song. By the way did you look at how the Lovebites American tour is going now. They already finished two concerts 6 in Atlanta,8 in Dallas. Next 10th in LA and last 12th in San Francisco. And you already miss the new EP. Some reactors make a full album review, you'll be surprised when you start to check. The album, is on another level. Enjoy. Greetings from London 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@jackieherber1095]

You guys would be BLOWN Away by the genius of the band, Sleep Token! 🤘Check out "The Summoning"!! Can't wait to see your faces as you listen to them😁#worship

[@UshaUsha-re3gu]

That tun tun sound is from "tumbi" single string instruments "ideally" made up with coconut shell.

[@donalucino7401]

Rakshak was the best album of 2022. .... fight me.

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

I got your back 😆 Rakshak is a bloody masterpiece. Especially for their debut album. Don't think there's another album out there by anyone I've listened to more. Can't wait for the new music from the 2nd album to start dropping! Soon 😁🥳

[@Dr.Brummel]

Thanks for your reaction 👍 I just love Bloodywood ❤ If you wanna hear another great music mix, try Alien Weaponry - Kai Tangata. Maori metal from New Zealand. The Maori language fits so great to metal music. A bit like a Haka with metal music. Or if you want some totally crazy metal stuff: Igorrr. Check out "Cheval" or "ieuD". "A colorful potpourri of baroque music, classical music, black and death metal, Break Beat, Balkan music, some Indian sprinkles and musettes." Well, have I piqued your curiosity? 😀

[@kyakpasaa]

♥

[@budabear48]

All for recommendations, but definitely check out Punjabi Metal gives u a good idea of how they got their song

[@B.WaRnEd2124]

Fantastic video to that one & oft overlooked because it's not on the album. Always makes me laugh & great song!

[@scottdraven2001]

If you get the chance to see them live it is highly recommended. All their other videos are amazing and they just dropped a new one Friday that is not only fire but a banger it’s nu Delhi

[@kumararup188]

They started as a fun project making metal parodies of Bollywood songs. Hence the name Bloodywood. As someone already said "you know just more metal" 😂

[@jaredharris5168]

You guys have to react to their song "Dana Dan" its easily their heaviest song with a powerful message. Also for any of their songs turn captions on they are translated correctly on all their music videos. This is the only video with captions made in the video.

[@dasstigma]

They started as some dudes who did metalcovers of more or less popular songs and the name is/was initially meant as some sort of satirical joke on how Holly-/Bollywood work, something like that. Then they took off from there and the name stuck. They have an entire biography, 90ish minutes I think. You'll find it if you look for it, I can highly recommend it, time well spent. Plus they have a new song that just came out yesterday. (Yes, shameless advertising.)

[@santoshsharma483]

The speech at the intro is from a Bollywood movie called Krantiveer. It basically translates as " here, this is the blood of a Hindu and this is the blood of a Muslim. Tell me the difference. If the creator god didn't differentiate, who the hell are you to say otherwise?"

[@Megan-c7b]

👍🔥🤘

[@aaronleesgbclieutenant]

Hey guys another indie band you need to hear is Solarus. They are a relatively unknown symphonic metal band from canada. Ive been pushing them for almost two years now because they are WORTH IT. Please scheck out their song The Keeper 🤘😎🤘

[@2RGGrannyJeff]

You just scraped the surface on these guys. Their music is so good. All their videos are bangers. "Aaj" and "Dana Dan" are two of their biggest songs. "Aaj" is a great mix of every sound they use in their music. It's a great representation of them and "Dana Dan" is just brutal and fun. You can't go wrong with any of their videos so I hope you guys do more. They just released a video yesterday. The first new music from them in almost two years. It's a banger! It's called "Nu Delhi"

And furthermore, they are really nice people who care for humanity and animals... they contribute a lot with society ... with one video they payed psichologist sessions for people with problems, on another helped an animal insitution... Check their documentary "Raj Against The Machine" which they recorded when they were invited to play in Wacken... also, you could review the video of "Dana Dan" which is talking about the r*pe culture in india ... they're worth another reaction!!

[@RippedPixels]

You should react to Punjabi Metal by Bloodywood!

[@soumiksrimani2847]

Dude, check out Dana Dan. Their best song by far. Just make sure to turn on the subtitles for that one, because they didn't add them on-screen like they did with other videos. Cheers!

Should have started with Machi Bhasad. Better into to what Bloodywood is.

[@trevorcummins6444]

Hes playing 8 string

[@ghostxmetal]

The name "Bloodywood" combines "bloody," reflecting the intense, edgy nature of their metal music, with "wood," a nod to Bollywood. It signifies their fusion of heavy metal with traditional Indian sounds, blending raw energy with cultural flair. Just my take, watch out, their new album is dropping in Early 2025
