Fun fact, since you commented on the video appearance - they’re 100% indie, they record & produce all their own music & videos. This one was literal guerrilla filming, dodging guards on a tea plantation, Raul (the rap guy) was attacked by leeches during the water shoot, there’s tons of stories
At the Copenhagen show, they jumpt into the crowd and created their own circel-pit, with instruments and all. I have never seen anything like it, so F----ng cool !
I saw them live last month in Zürich. Man...what a performance...and they are so charismatic and a whooole lot of humor these guys have. One of the best concerts I've seen in my live. And believe me....I've been on some the past 20 years 😂
Hard agree. Saw them last year and it was absolutely one of the best shows I've ever seen. Super high energy and so genuine. I'm seeing them again next month. Can't wait!
@@michaelfontanin5774 Saw them in London 1500 capacity March on main tour. Got incredibly lucky and saw they did a 200 capacity club in a little town on a Wednesday night last week so had to get tickets. Stood front row, inches from Karan's guitar and fistbumped them all etc, fucking epic live and on album
Good one. And that woman is " The Snake charmer" btw. She is one of the best Bagpiper player in the country and she is a friend/gf of someone in theirs. She mostly travels with them.
Non metalheads l: "metal is nothing but satanism and noisey chaos" Bloodywood: powerful positive message and flute solo's Metalheads: "I LOVE BLOODYWOOD 🤘🤘" 😅😅
Bloodywood is top tier for sure, they don’t have a bad song imo. Check out Gaddar, Machi Basad, and Jee Veerey next! They’re coming to the states next month and I’ve got my VIP for Pittsburgh, I can NOT wait!
Bloodywood has alot of song that are about mental health and social commentary. Definately recommend watching Jee Veerey and Defiant, also Machi bhasad is a banger and highlights how their sound is very much influenced by RATM as you said.
Got the chance to see them live in the UK last week. I echo everyone’s comments about how good they are live- excellent performances, energy, ability to engage with the audience. One of the best live acts I have seen in over 4 decades of concert going.
So, Aaj was my introduction to Bloodywood, and it’s still my favorite of theirs. There’s something so powerful in how the music combines itself to both be natural and also a force of nature. :D It was a hell of a ride with my synesthesia, too.
same for Bloodywood and Ren, but i found them looking for new influencers response to NF( and to see people break with How could you leave us).. love these two, the BEST duo on RUclips HANDS DOWN!!!!!
Gaddaar is a MUST..mandatory to say the least.. 😎 What a fekin groove through out and so relatable, no matter where you're from..NO FLAG!!! 🤘🎅HAIL SANTA
I can't wait to see these live in June at Download Festival in the UK. I hadn't heard them before but we listened to all the band announced so far and are really looking forward to seeing Bloodywood, the Hu and Ice Nine Kills.
What did you make of their Download set? Seen them twice in small venues here in UK March and May and both gigs #1 and #2 of my life, and I have seen plenty
So glad to see you back with Bloodywood! Seriously, reaction channels like this are what have helped launch them onto the global stage. So, please, by all means, keep visiting their songs! It's a win for you getting to hear great music of a different flavor, and a win for them with exposure to audiences everywhere. 🤘
Fucking fantastic band, they are so inspirational, each and every one of their song has a different unique and incredibly important message that is uplifting and so full of kindness
Awesome reaction!! Bloodywood’s album is easily one of the top ten metal albums of 2022 and more reactions are needed. Eric, when talking about how the guy with the flute gets all the pussy, I thought for sure you’d say something about “one time at band camp”…… opportunity missed.🤣🤣🤣
The girl at the end (snakecharmer) she has her own channel and is a kick ass metal techno bagpipes player, happens to be Karan's (guitar/fluit) girlfriend
This whole album has soooooo much heart. Gaddaar slaps so hard too, and i feel should have been more of a payoff than the leading track. Definitely recommend
Fun fact: the woman is Archy Jay, AKA The Snake Charmer ( www.youtube.com/@TheSnakeCharmer ). New to the channel, dunno if you react to more than metal & hip hop, but if so definitely give her a listen. Mostly covers from various genres, but Nageena is fantastic and an original 👍 Also a collab with a couple other pipers covering Shipping Up To Boston & Enter Sandman is pretty f'n great. That's the one I first found her during a real ... out there YT rabbit hole 😆
I saw them live in Bangalore, India. Amazing performance. And they are super cool dudes without any attitude. I have been following them since their beginnings when they used to do comedic covers of metal songs with an Indian twist. Fantastic to see how far they have come.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Bloodywood. These guys are phenomenal and do everything themselves. They toured the UK a few weeks and I followed them. Absolute gents who are not just talented but they're all so damn kind and friendly. Make sure you react to everything else they've done. You wont be disappointed ❤
I LOVE these guys!!! Usually, female vocals kill it for me but these were SO perfectly done I have to admit I'm making an exception - WHOLEHEARTEDLY! This song especially has so many layers it has dimensions! Absolutely amazing.
@@jaydeepsen4769 Outstanding! Thanks for asking. Highly recommend if you ever get the chance in the future, go. They’re done in the US, touring Europe right now if that’s where you’re from.
@@chrishill7088 I'm from India. I saw them at Bangalore last year during their Nine Inch Naan tour. They were saying absolutely brilliant. Recently, watched Mayhem live for the first time. 🤘
@@jaydeepsen4769 Lucky you! I see they stopping in Japan after Europe and then they said they are going to get going on a second album….Hope they do some shows near you before they do!
Every single bit of the instrumentation was phenomenal, Archy J. was phenomenal with her voice (by the way, Archy J is an amazing beast when she's rocking her bagpipes!!!! See the Snake Charmer, the Indian folk metal, metal-metal bag-piper!!!!), as were both of the vocalists! I don't have everyone's names down YET, but I will! Bloodywood rocks!!
Greetings from Guam! Yeah, these guys are next level! Another top-shelf folk-metal band you'd be glad to check out is Eluveitie. I recommend the song Aidus.
If linkin park had flute solo's. I've had the pleasure of seeing them live twice. They're wonderful human beings, and should be talked about more than they are.
saw 'em last week in CZ at the Rock for People fest ... f-ing amazing. SlipKnoT had just finished their show and I was actually thinking of checking out Bloodywood, totally unknown to me at the time. Really glad I stayed. One of the best and epic shows I've seen!
go see them-no regrets. i did and it was hands down, the best concert I've seen. the lady at the end is a bagpipe player who goes by snakecharmer. listen to endurant next.
i appreciated your comment throughout the video, you are among the few who, in my opinion, didn't just "hear" the song, but listened to it. Keep it up 👊
Karan, the guitarist is dating a lady that goes by the name of Archy Jay aka The Snake Charmer whom is the lady singing towards the end of this song. Her, Jane Espie aka Phantom Piper and Chelsea Joy aka the Dame of Drones did a bagpipe cover of DropKick Murphy's song Shipping up to boston.
Bloodywood, have said that System of A Down, Rage Against the Machine, Alter Bridge are among those Bands that have influenced them. Also Bloodywood have made a Documentary called Raj Against the Machine, about their Journey to Wachen Metal Festival (its here on RUclips).
Guyssss i would die for you to react to Fujii Kaze, Shinunoga E-wa, live version. It is amazing, beautifully done and gives me goosebumps every time. ❤
ya know what ... have my world wide folk metal list The Hu- Mongolia Wagakki band- japan Alien weaponry- New Zealand (Maori metal) Arka'n Asrafokor- Togo (Africa has a metal scene people are tragically overlooking. Another good metal band [although not folk metal] from Africa is Botswanan band Skinflint) Cemican- Mexico Manntra- Croatia Rune- Srbija Dubioza Kolektiv- Bosnia and Hertzegovina (NOTE: they are called a band with no genre because they blend EVERYTHING ... just compare their songs "No escape" and "space song") Arkona-Russia Percival Shatenbach- Poland ( Percival is kind of a panslavic since they covered folk songs from all 3 subgroups of Slavic peoples) Al Namrood- Saudi arabia Hassak- Kazakhstan (technically an ethno band but their song "Amanat" would not be out of place on a metal concert) Bloodywood-India Nini music - Taiwn MicacleOfSound- Ireland (songs like "Grainn Mahoil", "Sirona" and "Tale of Cu Chullain") NOTE: if anyone knows a band from South America please do let me know I want to have a band from each continent to recommend
Wait wait wait…😂 That little “Off the hook” bit. Was that a Grind reference? LOL Tom Greene does that EXACT thing in that movie LMFAO If so then omg I love you guys soooooooo much more now 😊 One of my favourite movies growing up
Funny you say they remind you of RATM, a documentary was made on these guys when they went to play their first shows and it's called Raj against the Machine. Worth checking out too. Great guys.
Yes, it remind me Rage against the machine too, ALOT heavier but it's really close. Bloodywood is certainly the future of the metal scene... oh wait... they already are !
6:50 it takes a special kind of badass to have a flute solo in a metal song and make it look like the heaviest thing you'll ever see
6:50 "he gets all the pussy"
So true! Legend!
Fun fact, since you commented on the video appearance - they’re 100% indie, they record & produce all their own music & videos. This one was literal guerrilla filming, dodging guards on a tea plantation, Raul (the rap guy) was attacked by leeches during the water shoot, there’s tons of stories
thats why we appreciate them..
I know this comment is a year old, but they just signed with Fearless Records in October
@ yup. AND Karan has an Ibanez endorsement now!
At the Copenhagen show, they jumpt into the crowd and created their own circel-pit, with instruments and all. I have never seen anything like it, so F----ng cool !
That's so fucking cool...

@@rebeccaraab4920 so cool. I almost envy you. Have a blast of an evening. Rock n Roll🤘🏽🤩
Their gigs are so much fun!
Saw them in Paris. Totally agree, the best concert i've seen.

Bloodywood is one of those few bands that make me want to flip tables in the most positive ways.
Non metalheads l: "metal is nothing but satanism and noisey chaos"
Bloodywood: powerful positive message and flute solo's
Metalheads: "I LOVE BLOODYWOOD 🤘🤘"
😅😅
This is probably the only metal band I listen to. I mean not counting ones like SIM which I only heard due to the anime I was watching.
That flute solo gets me every time
Bloodywood is top tier for sure, they don’t have a bad song imo. Check out Gaddar, Machi Basad, and Jee Veerey next! They’re coming to the states next month and I’ve got my VIP for Pittsburgh, I can NOT wait!

I never would have found Bloodywood if I hadn’t found Ryker Road. Hell, you guys introduced me to NF too. You guys are legit “influencers”!
same for Bloodywood and Ren, but i found them looking for new influencers response to NF( and to see people break with How could you leave us).. love these two, the BEST duo on RUclips HANDS DOWN!!!!!
NF was a fresh breeze of summer air..arty onany levels..a hidden gem..yes..
YESSSSS MORE BLOODYWOOD
Thanks for reacting to this amazing group again. NEXT Gaddaar, Macha Bhasad, Jee Veerey and Ari Ari. So talented. So glad your enjoying them.
I absolutely second every one of those songs, as well as Yaad!
Gaddaar is a MUST..mandatory to say the least.. 😎 What a fekin groove through out and so relatable, no matter where you're from..NO FLAG!!! 🤘🎅HAIL SANTA
The girl singing is know as the SnakeCharmer.....she also covers Metallica....on Bagpipes.....

Boodywood ❤ gonna see them live in June in Finland, they also have a full length documentary on their first european tour on RUclips
Between these guys and The Hu, though having vastly different sounds, rock got a WHOLE lot more interesting! Good one guys !
Oh, I Loved The Hu!!
Love love love Bloodywood. Really hope I can see them live at some point.
Fucking fantastic band, they are so inspirational, each and every one of their song has a different unique and incredibly important message that is uplifting and so full of kindness
Saw them live a Louder Than Life 2022. They kicked ass and cant wait to see them again.
Awesome reaction!! Bloodywood’s album is easily one of the top ten metal albums of 2022 and more reactions are needed. Eric, when talking about how the guy with the flute gets all the pussy, I thought for sure you’d say something about “one time at band camp”…… opportunity missed.🤣🤣🤣

ANTHEM!!!
Please Gadaar next...
Stay safe and greetz from Germany
Aaj means today in Hindi
Please do Gaddaar next by them!!!!!! They are such an awesome band!!!!

Just seen them in Glasgow a few weeks ago it was absolutely amazing! Empowerment is amazing when through music
They'll be in my city next month and I'm beyond excited!!
Me too! Well, not my city, per se, but close enough! Santa Ana, ready or not!!
I saw them live in Bangalore, India. Amazing performance. And they are super cool dudes without any attitude.
I have been following them since their beginnings when they used to do comedic covers of metal songs with an Indian twist. Fantastic to see how far they have come.
Jee Veerey thats all that needs to be said. must watch
So the woman singing is The Snake Charmer, and I'm pretty sure she's with the guitarist/flautist.
Pretty sure they separated right before this tour.
Archi the singer at the end AKA Snake Charmer was Jai (lead guitar flute player friend/gf at the time

Live in Texas this May. Am I ready? No. Going? Yes!
More Bloodywood, please.
I LOVE these guys!!! Usually, female vocals kill it for me but these were SO perfectly done I have to admit I'm making an exception - WHOLEHEARTEDLY! This song especially has so many layers it has dimensions! Absolutely amazing.
they are by far one of my favorite bands. I love their songs Aaj, Endurant and Jee Veerey .
Seeing them in Chicago next month and so excited!! Saw them last year and one of my favorite shows in my almost 40 years.
Spiced Ham…? Still not on board😂
Aside from the SFD (Silly Fact of the Day), this song was an Anthem! Just made me want to have a Badass Day!
Fully independent and interestingly their tour was called Raj against the machine 😊
They are epic
❤
Thank you
Love it
Video number 11 asking for Bury Tomorrow - Life (Paradise denied)
I listen to these guys when I work out!!
Absolute banger!
That was amazing! So original and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Thank you for reacting to it. I wanna see more of them!
They're touring the States right now.. You guys should go!
Great reaction Psychos. Love it. Got my ticket to see them May 12 in Chicago. Anyone else? And yes, their concerts are nonstop energy.
Later in Texas. I’m so excited
How was the show?

This song talks directly into my soul...I just clutch my heart the whole time from the first chorus ♥ absolutely beautiful.
I have seen them live 3 times now and yes their concerts are pure insanity but worth it
After the US tour they will be starting on album no2.
They're like an Indian Version of fire from the gods. Super neat
Just wow! I love these guys, this song is now in n my playlist! Can't wait to delve into them more
First off, great reaction! Rakshak, from last year, is an absolute banger. Go forth and listen to more!
This song pumps me up so much, its my second favorite of theirs
Every single bit of the instrumentation was phenomenal, Archy J. was phenomenal with her voice (by the way, Archy J is an amazing beast when she's rocking her bagpipes!!!! See the Snake Charmer, the Indian folk metal, metal-metal bag-piper!!!!), as were both of the vocalists!
