I've seen Bloodywood live twice, and they are just the nicest, loveliest guys. They waited outside after the first show to make sure every fan who wanted a word or a photo got one. At the second show, they hung out and chilled with fans outside for quite awhile, even though they must have been exhausted from performing and a punishing tour schedule. Combined with their awesome music, social consciences, and all the good they do... WELL WORTH buying their album and seeing them live. I can't help screaming along with"Dana Dan." Such a meaningful song for every woman on earth. We need to hear from our brothers against sexual violence!
Well that's quite a narrow description of what Kali is and stands for (to her worshippers and overall). More like "Phantom", true protector for good kind people taking care of them and all that Niceness But to mean evil people? Well they really get what they deserve and in a way asked for by being such a-holes oh ou. 😅❤🎉😂
They are invoking Kali. Kali also called Kalika, is a major Hindu goddess associated with time, change, creation, power, destruction and death. Also, I fully endorse and support what this song is saying, and I have done what they are espousing.
Thank you for checking these guys out. They go hard in anger, but also in compassion. In person, they are quick to laugh, and have hearts of gold. I believe the blue woman was actually the goddess Kali, associated with empowement,death, and justice. The female vocalist is named Archy J, who has her iwn RUclips channel under the name The Snake Charmer. Fantastic vocalist and bagpiper. I recommend checking out "Aaj", which will show a little more uplifting sude to them, and Archy actually appears in person.
One of their most intense songs... and the only one that doesn't have subtitles on automatically. Great band, great songs. They like to write about problems in Indian government and culture, but most people have similar problems to some degree. They finished recording their 2nd album about a month ago. No word yet on a release date, but they are independent musicians, and their first album sold out of physical media a lot faster than they expected.
Bloodywood has a way of taking you through a gambit of emotions with their messages and trailblazing brand of metal. Raoul's lyrics speak truths backed by Karan's compositions with Jayant's growls putting the exclamation point on each of their tracks. Loved seeing the metalhead in you on full display, Beth. Our brothers from India have a knack of making the world seem smaller and how the majority of folks are more alike than propaganda tries to say otherwise.
I don't consider myself a metal head, but i love this babe since i discovered they a while ago. They have so powerful songs, and they seem to be very nice and humble guys.
I would suggest not even trying to follow the subtitles at first lol. Just go with it. And be prepared when the 2nd singer comes in. 😳 You definitely need to hear "Gadaar" as well. Your neck will hurt from headbanging so hard.
I love this song so much. Message and Music just work together so good. Though I must say, that for you as a vocalist I would defenetly also advise you to also watch Jee Veerey and Aaj. Jayant has such a wide vocal range from clear highs to deep growls its just amazing to see them coming from the same person.
You are so good at this… making the untrained listener appreciate the techniques of creating an amazing vocal. My favorite creator in this area… bar none. Look into Lawrence: Don’t Lose Sight (the acoustic version)… or I’m Confident.. That I’m Insecure (also the acoustic version). You will NOT be disappointed. 🤘❤️🤘
My fave Bloodywood song! Lyrically and musically. Loved seeing you get into it! I saw these guys at Download last year and theyvwere so much fun. So much energy. Metallica headlined (twice!) but second to them I will always remember Bloodywood and their superb crowd work that made everyone feel a part of the performance 🙂
Bloodywood is awesome. On top of being just really good people they bring so much energy live. I'm really looking forward to the new music they've been working on. Not sure how much you've dug into the rest of their stuff since you mentioned the community outreach things, but Jayant has a good singing voice too.
Bloodywood sits in the back of my playlist always, and I always almost forget about them until they come up on shuffle. I actually recently added this song to my playlist, funny enough, because it was featured in a badass scene in Moneky Man.
Apologies Beth, but i just now saw this. I giggled like a buffoon waiting to see your reaction because this is so hard hitting and relentless. Especially when the speed metal rap vocal first kicks in. 😂
A socially relevant song. That's the main part you must get from it even though it is punchy and pleasant musically. To put an end to rapists in a society one punch at a time.
@@cybergeek11235 Never! LOL! But, because I live on the west coast of the US, I'm always one of the last to see these videos. Happily, their audience continues to grow larger, which inevitably puts any comment from me lower on the list... a scenario I am perfectly happy with!! 🤘 But, I thank you for looking for me. Makes me feel special. ☺️
There's a lot of songs that I find more comfortable to use my throat singing techniques. As opposed to my Frye vocal techniques. I use a combination while rolling my tongue. Plus the weird metal pipe resonance of my throat.
At the moment, they only have their debut album Rakshak out, besides a few other videos on YT. It has 10 tracks & absolutely every 1 is a must listen. They cover so many important topics & give an impressively wide range of vocals throughout. While every song sounds like Bloodywood, each is unique. Endurant is my personal favorite & oft overlooked despite having a great video. In Zanjeero Se, no video, Jayant the harsh vocalist gets downright whispery with his clean vocals - chill bumps 😅 - & BSDK.exe, no video, is probably the song I play on repeat the most often. If you truly fall in love with the music, check out their YT doc "Raj Against the Machine" to fall in love with the guys too 😄 Hope this helps. Keep an eye out for the first single release from their new album in just a couple weeks! 😁
It's only just occurred to me that Raoul has Kratos face paint on as well. Not sure if that was intentional or not. I first listened to this with earphones on the day they released it and it was a complete aural assault. It was brutal and loved it and I still do.
#GabrielHenrique I leave the talented Gabriel Henrique as a suggestion. Some covers in his voice: -I Have Noting -The climb -The greatest love of all -My heart you go on When we were young...
Sexual assault is something that is common to all cultures and countries. A song like this demanding that we stand up and fight violently against it is something different and should be something more people hear.
@@NewAeonWarlord I'm good, thanks! Looking forward to the new album. Hopefully it will take my mind off the ridiculous politics going on here in the US. How are things in Deutschland?
"I didn't expect this to be in this song" I mean, the _opening lyric_ is "I put a fist through the face of a rapist" - surely if it were going to be ANYWHERE, this is the absolute likliest of places? :) (edit: I am good at punctuation & typing, yes I am. -_- )
Fantastic reaction & analysis! Really enjoyed your enjoyment & commentary 😄 Bloodywood is definitely a rabbit hole you should get more into. You won't want to come back out 😉 Now is the best time to catch up on a few more gems from this album, Rakshak, before they drop the first single from their 2nd album in a couple weeks.
@SocratesAurelius can't guarantee 100%, but pretty sure, yes. I know they've worked on shooting more than 1 video for the new album. Just waiting for the Patreon announcement any day now that they're ready to start blessing us with the new jams 😁
@Brudder7 The wait is killing me! But they definitely said this month. Since it's my birthday month, it feels like I'm waiting for the best present ever. I know what it is, but I can't have it yet 😅 Though, I suspect we'll be hearing something from the band very soon.
Jayant's huge long sustained screams toward the end (I guess I'd call it the last prechorus?) gives me chills every time I so much as THINK about this song. It feels like he's gathering up and carrying and unleashing the collective fury and trauma and vengeance of everyone who's ever been victimized. Seriously makes me tear up with pure awe just to say it. Might be the most powerful moment in any piece of music I've ever experienced, and I've heard some pretty epic basis for comparison.
So glad I caught this upload! Haven't been back to your channel in ages (just happenstance) but I LOVE reactions to this song and I'm so stoked you've now seen it!
Same, I can't think about that final breakdown/prechorus (with Jayant's big long screams) without feeling chills, and can't listen to or watch it or watch a reaction to that moment without crying. It's just unbelievably powerful. That moment is an all-time brilliant example of art's ability to capture and communicate emotion.

Now to break your brain, check out Jayant’s clean bits in Gaddaar and Aaj. Yaad really shows their range off, as compared to this, but that one’s pretty rough emotionally. Definitely have tissues handy
Aargh! Captions, Beth, else you'll miss half the lyrics. Unless you speak Punjabi, that is. I wouldn't normally mind, but in this case, it's important. The actual use of "Dana Dan" in the lyrics is "Bring the Beatdown", so that last line "But until then..."🔥 It's not Vishnu, it's Kali (actually, I think Kali may be an aspect of Vishnu, though Shiva would be more appropriate, I'd have thought).
SO glad to see you rock these guys! Bloodywood are brilliant, along with being great people and super compassionate. I couldn't recommend the song Jee Veerey more though. It's beautiful, catchy, and drives home such a powerful message to so many. Watch a live show and you'll see people with signs saying that song saved their life. Keep up the great work!
the f with osteopaths? They are similar to chiropractors by lack of science or medical education. So i wouldn't go to one and my bones are ok atm. There are all kind of chrystals and healing waters etc. pfff. Song it self is very numetal with good message.
This a rabbit hole you really need to go down. And pay attention to the words. These guys sold out Waken at NOON with no album or backing. Only being known from RUclips. Quite a feat
Interesting that a band from New Delhi, one of the most overpopulated cities in the world, would stand for equal responsibilities. Nice. They are certainly talented and creative but for me...this is too much stimuli...a common hazard of aging. It is an, however, an interesting addition for today's younger generations. 😊
Try to listen their music while driving...i'm betting you'll lose you voice from shouting and/or get speeding ticket :) just kidding...one of best new bands to listen after hard day at work
You should have used the translation Subtitles.Then the Meaning of the Lyrics are even STRONGER !
Thank you! :)
yep, they translate the hindi part too!

The Blue Dancer is an INCARNATION of the BLUE INDIAN WAR GODDESS KALI !
I guess I read exactly this the other day and it would makes a lot more sense.

More like "Phantom", true protector for good kind people taking care of them and all that Niceness But to mean evil people?

I'm pretty sure that the goddess that is featured in the video is Kali, not Vishnu. But I could be wrong.
I think you are right!
@@BethRoars None the less, great reaction. It really showed how enthralled you got.
Bloodywood rock 🎸 🎵🎶 🥁
Raj against the machine lol awesome name for the documentary
I would suggest not even trying to follow the subtitles at first lol. Just go with it. And be prepared when the 2nd singer comes in. 😳 You definitely need to hear "Gadaar" as well. Your neck will hurt from headbanging so hard.
Can't wait for their new album! 🤘 Ah man, you should have watched with subs, as it has the harsh vocal lyrics there
I love this song so much. Message and Music just work together so good.
Though I must say, that for you as a vocalist I would defenetly also advise you to also watch Jee Veerey and Aaj. Jayant has such a wide vocal range from clear highs to deep growls its just amazing to see them coming from the same person.
Been a fan of these guys for years now. Always love seeing reactions to their stuff!
Awesome reaction. Such a great band. They are working on the follow up album now. I think its due out end of this year or beginning of next year.
You are so good at this… making the untrained listener appreciate the techniques of creating an amazing vocal. My favorite creator in this area… bar none. Look into Lawrence: Don’t Lose Sight (the acoustic version)… or I’m Confident.. That I’m Insecure (also the acoustic version). You will NOT be disappointed. 🤘❤️🤘
I've actually just done a reaction to this. Next weeks new music Tuesday :)
@@BethRoars awesome. I’ve been on this Lawrence kick for awhile… looking forward to hearing your impressions. Thanks. Keep up the good work 🤘❤️🤘
I love this band. They have a lot of great tracks.
Wonderful review of a great band.
Very relevant now sadly

Metallica headlined (twice!) but second to them I will always remember Bloodywood and their superb crowd work that made everyone feel a part of the performance 🙂
People were watching them under scorching heat.
The song is about the fight against domestic violence, and is amazing at conveying an urgency for change.
Thought you'd like this one.
We would die if you reacted to Daughters of Witches!!!
Bloodywood is awesome. On top of being just really good people they bring so much energy live. I'm really looking forward to the new music they've been working on.

I also love that their first big tour was called “Raj Against the Machine”
Second tour (or at least another tour I saw them do - might have been first US tour) was called Nine Inch Naans
I need to listen to way more than just reaction videos don't I
One of the best live bands going now.
A socially relevant song. That's the main part you must get from it even though it is punchy and pleasant musically. To put an end to rapists in a society one punch at a time.
I am so happy to see Beth introduced to Bloodywood!! I think I've been waiting for this for years!!
Do you realize how far I had to scroll to find you? I was starting to think you'd given up the vigil! 😂

With the recent filth happening in Kolkatta, I've been coming back to this song a lot
Seen them live two years ago, they were awesome!
Vaya vídeo IMPRESIONANTE 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 y el final ÉPICOOOOOOO. Como su reacción señorita Beth bien 👏 👏🍀🍀
I *love* this band! 💖
Great song by them
Beth you should analyse 'Aaj' by these guys - such an epic, uplifting song!
You can't watch this one without the subtitles on or you will never know what they are saying.
Great reaction to an awesome band and I learnt several new things!
There's a lot of songs that I find more comfortable to use my throat singing techniques. As opposed to my Frye vocal techniques. I use a combination while rolling my tongue. Plus the weird metal pipe resonance of my throat.
Great reaction great song glad I found it must do some research anyone any tips what songs to do next

This song was used recently in Dev Patel's _Monkey Man,_ and it works perfectly.
Wow, solid song. Gonna have to check these guys out.
You won't regret it. These guys are absolutely amazing. 🤘
thank You, Beth, great reaction, I love Bloodywood, they are so unique and real and pure 🖤
They're awesome 💪 i've cry to much on the song Yaad 🌹 Great talent 🤟
It's only just occurred to me that Raoul has Kratos face paint on as well. Not sure if that was intentional or not.
I first listened to this with earphones on the day they released it and it was a complete aural assault. It was brutal and loved it and I still do.
I hope Beth does Atarashii Gakko one day.
Really good live band which I wa slucky enough to see in a small venue in Wolverton.
#GabrielHenrique I leave the talented Gabriel Henrique as a suggestion. Some covers in his voice: -I Have Noting -The climb -The greatest love of all -My heart you go on When we were young...
Here's an off the wall, weird idea. They'd make a phenomenal collaboration with Maximum the Hormone
Sexual assault is something that is common to all cultures and countries. A song like this demanding that we stand up and fight violently against it is something different and should be something more people hear.
Hacktivist meets Eminem meets Project46 hahaha
