I'm an elementary school teacher in Canada. Every Friday I have a music appreciation period showing music genres and musicians from around the world with my class, about half of whom are Indian immigrants or the children of immigrants. A few weeks ago I introduced my class to this band and they absolutely loved them!
Love Bloodywood! They did what all us Indian bands before them couldn't. But we've been around. 25 years now, us, Kryptos, Gutslit, Godless, Zygnema, Bhayanak Maut and many more. We're all stoked to see Bloodywood succeed! If you wanna dive into Indian metal now you know where to start!
Good to see you're happy for them. A lot of Indian metal bands hate them and call them pretenders. Most probably jealous of their success. I believe, as an international language band, in order to be successful you've to bring something new. You've to be unique and that's why Bloodywood is getting all the recognition.
Hey, I checked out these bands and I really liked Bhayanak Maut! Really solid melodic death metal. I would describe their sound as a mix between Soilwork and Meshugga with a hint of Dagoba. Thanks for the recommendation! Will definitely keep an eye (ear?) on them!
Random white dude is Karl Rock. German(?) travel vlogger and metal fan. The old guy playing the harmonium on the subway is, if my eyesight hasn’t failed me, Subir Malik of one of India’s oldest rock bands still touring (Parikrama).
Fun fact: It wasn't a Steadicam guy for those shots. They were able to have a drone operator come in to do all of the close shots at the fort location of the video. They shared that in a behind the scenes clip on their Patreon (which through their supporters on there they were able to afford the drone cam and they gratefully thank their supporters for everything they do and have done to help them get to where they are now).
So true!!!!!!!!! Jayant is my fave singer since OG Sepultura's Max Cavalera - both have such brilliant harsh vocals, both so heavy but able to be understood. Love it!
@@theoriginalpurplecat distinctly, no. There actually isn't. There are phenomenal bands, but one can easily mistake them as international - which is sad in a way, but that is due to 99% of our band being white (Not a derogatory comment, or racist etc). Heck my bank was 70% black dudes lol - yet we still played according to what we grew up with. I think it takes a lot of experience, and knowhow to place your own spin on things. But yeah, no one comes to mind. I think you need to look to Botswana to get what you need.
I seen them last year here in Glasgow Scotland, it's still in my top 3 best gigs I've been to, and hands down the most crazy mosh pit I've been in, and when I say the whole crowd was moshing, I mean EVERYONE, I've never seen a band be able to bring out that much energy from a crowd before, and it was fucking magical. And to my surprise, they're playing here again in March, I woke up so early to buy tickets, and they're incredibly cheap, last year I think they were around £18, this time they're only £20, plus fees, which is INSANELY cheap in my opinion, I could honestly justify paying double to see them, they're that fucking good, do yourself a favour whoever is reading this, and see this band live, it's one of the best shows you'll be apart of, I can promise you that! 🤘🖤
Sadly Italy is slowly disappearing from the world and european tours. And i hate this thing. Luckily Bloodywood will do one show in Milan, and i will be there, at all costs! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
when the song ends, the guy says "aaja Karan ho gya record!" which means "Karan come back, we're done recording!" (Karan Katiyar is not only their guitarist, but their music video director as well!)
Seeing you unknowingly tear up hearing them shows how proud you (and we) are of their achievements! I, first getting to know them through "Jee Veerey" just feel them as my own people, even though i never met an Indian person ever :D
I usually don't watch reaction videos, but I've seen at least three since this video dropped, and in every single one, there is an unmistakable look of joy on their faces...including yours!
Well, you did it again, Tank. Another band I had no idea existed that I'm going to have to check out now. Getting my horizons broadened on this channel and I love it.
Well that was a surprise. I was hoping for a reaction to this banger but a full on "old school" and not the twitch reaction was a nice surprise. Also I already ordered my ticket for Berlin the moment they opened early access on their Patreon. Can't wait for it
Karl Rock was the one who supported Shahin baag protest and Hum kagaz nahi dikhayenge Slogan.. 😅😅 When Indian government Told him to mind his own business, you came to india in Tourism visa..Than he started crying and weeping and complain to his Newzealand Government that india is Banning me from entering India... If you are a youtuber than be TH-camr, If you want to be in politics than Openly Do your Politics and your thoughts on Government rather than Hiding Behind I'm just a "TH-camR" 🤡🤡
@ so TH-camrs are not supposed to have political opinions? As if other influencers in India don’t have political alliances? So Movie stars, business men are not lobbying for certain political parties and personal agendas? Everyone should just in the respective lanes and not have political opinions? Because you think thats how a society functions? His wife is indian. He will have opinions. He will speak out. Bloodywood is about unity in diversity. bloodywood is about speaking out your truth. Even if its not others truth. It’s about co-existing, debating and democratic process. People like you who want others to shut up when they don’t speak what you want to hear are not part of the democratic process.
@psyshanudasan I didn't say that kid 🤡 .. i said if you taken side than Openly Accept it.. Don't or play victim after you had chosen a side..simple... KARL ROCK chosen a side good..Than why he cried that indian goverment not allowing me in india...🤡🤡🤣.. when it's clear that when someone Comes in a tourist visa he only do travelling not joining or doing Protests and pulling down the government 🤣🤣.. I will be more Happy if he joins congress/opposite party... Without tourist visa 😜.. Sawra bhaskar..Tapsee pannu,,,Anurag Kashyap,, Rajdeep sardesai,..Dhruv rathhe,.. Deshbhakt channel,,. Prakash raj,..Joseph Vijay, Kamal Hasan..Etc.. All Openly Hate this government and I'm Ok with it..Coz They had chosen a side and Openly Saying it.. Simple as That.. Why Karl Rock Cried and played victim card When he knows about TOURIST VISA...TELL ME KID
Thanks Tank for introducing me to this. Sounds really great. I give, as recommended, their last album a try, and if it holds up - concert tickets will follow.
Hearing Eluveitie in the back ground at the start of the video caught me off guard. I had no idea you knew who they were! BloodyWood released another banger for damn sure. I cant wait to see what the album is going to be like!
It would be so sick if you can get them back on the podcast. I would love another interview with them! Also i didn't know how much i missed the long form reactions from ya, but this was a pleasant return.
As always, it's good to see you, Tank, and I hope you're well 8^) I've been rocking to Bloodywood since "Mundian to Bach Ke Rahi" and "Tunak Tunak Tun" (the story behind that original tune is awesome). I'm SO HAPPY these guys made it. They truly deserve it. Peace 8^)
I discovered them with Tunak Tunak Tun, too. And I've been following them ever since. Got to see them in Baltimore for the Nin Inch Naans tour. That show was insane! I can't wait to see them again.
These guys are incredible. The song is a banger and the music video is sick. I absolutely adore the shot of Jayant hanging out if the vehicle just spinning around, ehehe
The song is amazing and your excitement is contagious! I'm really happy that you broke your hiatus for them and I'm super happy for these guys, too, one of my favorite bands, sound-wise, lyric-wise, pun-wise and just in general. Also it's great that they put their lyrics in the video itself so we don't have to deal with TH-cam's garbage. Very much looking forward to buying the album!
I've been listening to Bloodywood for a while now (thanks TH-cam for recommending them to me). I think they are great and will continue to listen to them. It's great to see you cover them here and love your reaction as I completely agree. First Hu, now Bloodywood.
I LOVED their album Rashak but fuck me i loved how hard this went in!! Never used to like music with other languages in it but since diving more into music in the past year i've grown to appreciate it more even tho i don't know what they are actually saying i can enjoy it so much more, wow what a vibe!! Gona have to look at tickets for the gig in birmingham uk (only an hour from me where i live now) also as a scotsman to see them playing SWG3 in glasgow that is epic, amazing venue for a gig and one very sought after by alot of artists that arent at big venue level yet!
Its kinda funny for knowing this bands for years now since their first music video, people now start to talking about Bloodywood becoming the next big thing😅 The boys really deserve to become big
Bloodywood was already in my radar as I had heard some of their earlier stuff. This song did the rare thing of giving me chillbumps. So now, imagine a rather seasoned woman sitting in front of a computer knitting (sic) and getting chillbumps from an Indian metal band...
I'm on Bloodywood's Patreon, and they've posted videos of how the process of getting signed to a label has gone. They have really taken their time with this process to make sure they don't get screwed over (I'm sure Karan having a background as a lawyer has something to do with that). I've no doubt their choice of label was deliberate and measured. Edit: And they also posted behind the scenes footage of them making this video- yes, they did use a drone, at one point flying it in between Karan's legs!
Haven't come across these guys before, but these guys are really cool. I love seeing traditional instruments from other cultures transcending into the metal space and it works. Have a lot of respect for this.
I found them almost by accident- I got "tu Jeet veeray" suggested to me in my feed and I loved them ever since. I've been saying for years that international metal bands deserve more love from the western audience. Names like "Ningen Isu" and "Alien Weaponry" are huge in their own countries but are just now beginning to get recognition in America- that's a crime. There's a ton of good metal out there waiting for you to find it and no, you don't need to know the words, a lot of the time (Besides being subtitled) the music itself conveys the feeling of the song well enough to gain an understanding.
Looks like you've introduced me to my birthday present a month early. And around this time last year you introduced me to Electric Callboy after YT put your Hypa Hypa reaction in my feed when I'd watched a few AC/DC reaction videos. This has been a fun rabbit hole so far!
Was kickass seeing you rock out, Tank, and thanks for the info on the instruments - damned happy for Karan and Jayant and Raoul and Roshan and the guys for the epic song, massively looking forward to the new album!
Great video dude, I’ve heard the bands name before but never heard any of their music. Definitely gonna have to check out the rest of their stuff, this song was awesome! Also the puns are just the icing on the cake! 😂
Also this video is a homage to all the known musicians from Delhi. Youll find them throughout the video here and there. Indian people will know who they are while watching the video. Basically people who make the delhi metal scene. Band members from Parikrama, Undying Inc and Hip Hop artist Seedhe Maut.
Their production is incredible. They put in these fantastic little sonic anomalies that just make it that much better. First new band I've absolutely loved in probably fifteen years.
Tank! You're the man! I love your content and your passion for music. You're one of the few creators on TH-cam whom I absolutely adore. Godspeed, brother!
Delhi is the capital of India, and New Delhi is the main city (there's also old Delhi). I'm from New Delhi myself and love seeing not just a national representation but even a home state representation. It's a wild city, for some wrong and really bad reasons (won't articulate here) but also for many solid reasons (the community, the diversity, the street food). Also more and more props to Jayant, doesn't get enough credit. The bollywood style Hindi vibe with consistent natural Punjabi undertone and easily switching between them - chef's kiss.
I absolutely love Bloodywood. I discovered them in 2019 and loved them right away. I was able to see them in Wacken the same year and they rocked. Then I saw in their documentary that they had only been on stage together a few times before and I found the performance even more impressive. Rarely seen a band with such joy in playing. Can hardly wait for the tour 🤘❤️
I found these guys fairly recently because I went around looking for bands around Polynesia and the Oceanic territories; I found Gadaar and I was hooked.
Bhangra feelings! This is great, thanks for a new favorite. New Delhi - I was there for a few hours, coming up from Jaipur to the airport what I remember is horrible air pollution over the city. Wild wild east, love it!
I discovered them with your previous reactions, and it might be one of my favourite discovery They have this vibe, awesome, love the way they embrace the culture with an indian sound really nicely incorporated in more traditional metal sound
TH-cam mix introduced me to them a few months ago. They've been a part of my work playlists since. I work from home and often long hours so metal is great for keeping my energy up for 11 hour or longer days.
Tank, I had never heard of these guys before your video. I paused it right before your reaction, watched the music video from them, and loved it! Came back, watched your reaction, and enjoyed the information. Now I have them pulled up on my Spotify and have new music to rock out to while doing chores. Thanks for giving them the exposure, they have a new fan!
Watching Bloodywood killing it in the metal music inspires me for my metal band Uddharett as we come from India too. Coz Metal music is something which is not really very accepted in this country but Bloodywood is absolutely killing it and breaking the impossibilities for the other metal bands in a country like India.
I was searching for new music to listen to and ended up finding Bloodywood, New Delhi. I was literally thinking " oh, this probably won't be good, but I'll give em' a chance ". 12 seconds in and I was already hooked! Thank you, Bloodywood! I am a fan!
My first Bloodywood song was "Aaj", and I love it .. went straight into my personal playlist! Since this I forgot to check for any new releases .. thanks for reminding me! 😅
These Guys are just Sick! Rakshak was my Album of the Year back then and Bloodywood itself are one of my favourite Bands since. Can´t wait for the new Album! 😎
Tank, I love how emotional you get on things that excite you. We are 100% the same in that regard. Thank you for normalizing emotion and grown men crying for a multitude of reasons.
this was fire!!! ive always loved the sounds of india.... then add metal?! Im sold! Thanks for reacting to this, im going to look for ur interview w the guitarist now!
I need to add this to my playlist! I'm a big bollywood fan and already love the cross overs to dance and rap, now a cross over to metal? I'm here for it! At about 10 minutes there is a part in the subway which is awesome. Nice little detail. There is a harmonic with keys that is used in traditional indian music (the guy with the blue whisers) So nice to see such traditional details as well!
Just a thing for future videos. Space Bar only stops and starts the video if you have the right parts of the player selected. Pressing "K" on the other hand will stop and start a video from wherever you are on the site.
I ust love how heavy yet positive they are. I get pumped every time I listen. And speaking of feels, man I played Jee Veeray for her and she teared up. Said we're going to that show! Lyrics hit hard.
Let's gooooo! High expectations after Rakshak, especially now that they did sign. I do wonder how much Karan will still want to do (or need to) on the production side.
Time to do Bekhauf! Always love seeing the reactions of a fellow Bloodywood fan. And appreciate the nuggets about the sound, instruments et al! One of the best reactions/podcasts I've come across!
Thanks for making me hear their music for the first time, loved it. They actually come to my hometown in France during their European tour, so I'm buying tickets as I'm writing this :)
I stumbled upon them years ago with their covers and then they dropped Jee Veerey which really helped me deal with my depression so I'm just super grateful of them for creating such meaningful lyrics. I fricking love their stuff and I hope I'll be able to see them perform in Germany (I know they had a gig in my hometown once but I was in hospital back then)
I'm right there with you Tank, so excited to hear more from these dudes. And, as always, it's so fascinating to hear you explain the context of the gear

You are an amazing teacher!
i don't know you, but i love you
Gotta love Bloodywood for their Sikh puns.
😂😂
I singh what you did there 👈👈
You'd think they're Pun-jabi
My sister got a good laugh, but sheeran away
nice, NICE!
Love Bloodywood! They did what all us Indian bands before them couldn't. But we've been around. 25 years now, us, Kryptos, Gutslit, Godless, Zygnema, Bhayanak Maut and many more. We're all stoked to see Bloodywood succeed! If you wanna dive into Indian metal now you know where to start!
Good to see you're happy for them. A lot of Indian metal bands hate them and call them pretenders. Most probably jealous of their success. I believe, as an international language band, in order to be successful you've to bring something new. You've to be unique and that's why Bloodywood is getting all the recognition.
@DemonicResurrection Thanks to bands like yours for laying the groundwork for bands like Bloodywood. 🤘
The OGs of india. Proud to be your and other bands fan. Love and respect from True metal head.
The OG legend. My Respect. I still listen to you're songs.
Hey, I checked out these bands and I really liked Bhayanak Maut! Really solid melodic death metal. I would describe their sound as a mix between Soilwork and Meshugga with a hint of Dagoba. Thanks for the recommendation! Will definitely keep an eye (ear?) on them!
Random white dude is Karl Rock. German(?) travel vlogger and metal fan. The old guy playing the harmonium on the subway is, if my eyesight hasn’t failed me, Subir Malik of one of India’s oldest rock bands still touring (Parikrama).
Karl Rock is from NZ
Karl rock is from New Zealand married to a woman from Haryana

I wish though have not travelled my country but thanks to guys like Karl Rock and bald!
We NEED a "Bloodywood / Electric callboy" collab
Don’t threaten us with a good time…
I’m in for it!
Totally agree!
ABSOLUTELY 🤣👍🤘!!! Greetings from Germany 🤗 alex
sh*t's gonna get censored...
THIS!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Fun fact: It wasn't a Steadicam guy for those shots. They were able to have a drone operator come in to do all of the close shots at the fort location of the video. They shared that in a behind the scenes clip on their Patreon (which through their supporters on there they were able to afford the drone cam and they gratefully thank their supporters for everything they do and have done to help them get to where they are now).
I love the subtitles BloodyWood puts in the videos, [Epic Harmonium Intensifies] here, & on (i think) Gaddar, [Indian Singing Intensifies]. Epic.
Can you imagine a big crowd all shouting "Delhi" to this song? That's epic.
They are the first band since Sepultura that made me feel connected to a country and or culture.
And this is me as a South African :)
Also south african here, are there any SA metal bands with a distinctly SA sound? I've been out of the loop for ages, would love any recommendations
So true!!!!!!!!! Jayant is my fave singer since OG Sepultura's Max Cavalera - both have such brilliant harsh vocals, both so heavy but able to be understood. Love it!
The Bloodywood vocalist mentioned Max Cavelera as his idol .😊

Tank himself actually reviewed Facing the Gallows...
I will never get tired of Bloodywood. They became a staple in my listening rotation immediately and I'm so hyped to see where they keep going.
So true. I inevitably go back to Bloodywood when I get tired of my playlist.

Man I miss these Roadie Reactions, glad to see you throwing it back for this!!
Sadly Italy is slowly disappearing from the world and european tours. And i hate this thing. Luckily Bloodywood will do one show in Milan, and i will be there, at all costs! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Ci sarò anch'io! 🔥
I live in Australia, and they haven't come over here yet, so I can feel the pain somewhat 😭

Well, you did it again, Tank. Another band I had no idea existed that I'm going to have to check out now. Getting my horizons broadened on this channel and I love it.
Go to ingress :')
You've had a hell of a couple months! These guys are freaking awesome, glad to see them making new music!!!
I hope Electric Callboy's management listens to you and make Bloodywood open for them on their next North American tour!!
First time hearing this band. Wow, it's glorious!
Well that was a surprise. I was hoping for a reaction to this banger but a full on "old school" and not the twitch reaction was a nice surprise.
Also I already ordered my ticket for Berlin the moment they opened early access on their Patreon. Can't wait for it
Well, and I just bought my tickets for Berlin after being introduced to them here.
Auf eine gute Zeit im Huxleys ;-)
Same for me, but Hamburg ;)
I love the Tank Facts man, it reminds me of those old Pop-Up Videos on VH1. Really adds to the experience!

There's a ton of good metal out there waiting for you to find it and no, you don't need to know the words, a lot of the time (Besides being subtitled) the music itself conveys the feeling of the song well enough to gain an understanding.
Looks like you've introduced me to my birthday present a month early. And around this time last year you introduced me to Electric Callboy after YT put your Hypa Hypa reaction in my feed when I'd watched a few AC/DC reaction videos. This has been a fun rabbit hole so far!
Was kickass seeing you rock out, Tank, and thanks for the info on the instruments - damned happy for Karan and Jayant and Raoul and Roshan and the guys for the epic song, massively looking forward to the new album!
Great video dude, I’ve heard the bands name before but never heard any of their music. Definitely gonna have to check out the rest of their stuff, this song was awesome! Also the puns are just the icing on the cake! 😂
I discovered Bloodywood during Covid and they quickly became one of my favorites. It's so exciting they're coming out with something new.
That was quick! But thanks for continuing to prop these guys up. They deserve it!
Also this video is a homage to all the known musicians from Delhi. Youll find them throughout the video here and there. Indian people will know who they are while watching the video. Basically people who make the delhi metal scene. Band members from Parikrama, Undying Inc and Hip Hop artist Seedhe Maut.
Saw them on their European Tour last year in Vienna. That show was absolute NUTS!
Their production is incredible. They put in these fantastic little sonic anomalies that just make it that much better. First new band I've absolutely loved in probably fifteen years.
The way his eyes lit up man! shows how much he's enjoying this song
Tank! You're the man! I love your content and your passion for music. You're one of the few creators on TH-cam whom I absolutely adore.
Godspeed, brother!
I have never listened to them before and this is right up my alley! Will be buying the new album.
Subir Malik in the video is an india rock veteran from the band Parikrama
Yeah, the one who’s playing harmonium
Delhi is the capital of India, and New Delhi is the main city (there's also old Delhi). I'm from New Delhi myself and love seeing not just a national representation but even a home state representation. It's a wild city, for some wrong and really bad reasons (won't articulate here) but also for many solid reasons (the community, the diversity, the street food). Also more and more props to Jayant, doesn't get enough credit. The bollywood style Hindi vibe with consistent natural Punjabi undertone and easily switching between them - chef's kiss.
I absolutely love Bloodywood. I discovered them in 2019 and loved them right away. I was able to see them in Wacken the same year and they rocked. Then I saw in their documentary that they had only been on stage together a few times before and I found the performance even more impressive. Rarely seen a band with such joy in playing. Can hardly wait for the tour 🤘❤️
I agree with you- Bloodywood will be big
I found these guys fairly recently because I went around looking for bands around Polynesia and the Oceanic territories; I found Gadaar and I was hooked.
Bhangra feelings! This is great, thanks for a new favorite. New Delhi - I was there for a few hours, coming up from Jaipur to the airport what I remember is horrible air pollution over the city. Wild wild east, love it!
ROADIE REACTIONS ARE SO BACK LETS GOOOO
I discovered them with your previous reactions, and it might be one of my favourite discovery
They have this vibe, awesome, love the way they embrace the culture with an indian sound really nicely incorporated in more traditional metal sound
Tank getting emotional over Bloodywood is not something I expected to see today, but I'm all for it:) Love to see it!
TH-cam mix introduced me to them a few months ago. They've been a part of my work playlists since. I work from home and often long hours so metal is great for keeping my energy up for 11 hour or longer days.
We had the opportunity to see Bloodywood live and they were amazing. Highly recommend!
"Epic harmonium intensifies" lmao these guys are so good. Gonna try and see them on that tour too.
Tank, I had never heard of these guys before your video. I paused it right before your reaction, watched the music video from them, and loved it! Came back, watched your reaction, and enjoyed the information. Now I have them pulled up on my Spotify and have new music to rock out to while doing chores. Thanks for giving them the exposure, they have a new fan!
Watching Bloodywood killing it in the metal music inspires me for my metal band Uddharett as we come from India too. Coz Metal music is something which is not really very accepted in this country but Bloodywood is absolutely killing it and breaking the impossibilities for the other metal bands in a country like India.
Been following them since their yt channel was just covers. I love the messages they convey...would love to see them live.
I was searching for new music to listen to and ended up finding Bloodywood, New Delhi. I was literally thinking " oh, this probably won't be good, but I'll give em' a chance ". 12 seconds in and I was already hooked! Thank you, Bloodywood! I am a fan!
My first Bloodywood song was "Aaj", and I love it .. went straight into my personal playlist!
Since this I forgot to check for any new releases .. thanks for reminding me! 😅
Karan has such a badass look when he plays! Can't wait to finally see these guys live (unfortunately I missed when they toured the US last time)
These Guys are just Sick! Rakshak was my Album of the Year back then and Bloodywood itself are one of my favourite Bands since. Can´t wait for the new Album! 😎
Love it! Missed your reactions, Tank!
Tank, I love how emotional you get on things that excite you. We are 100% the same in that regard. Thank you for normalizing emotion and grown men crying for a multitude of reasons.
Like Raul sang, Beast from the East! Bloody wood will Def be very big in Asia!❤😊
❤ for Tank
❤ for Bloodywood
Good stuff mate!
Never heard of this band but absolutely fell in love with this. Thank you for introducing me to a new band.
Damn bro, never heard of them but this sounds sick af. Gonna straight to my playlist and im excited to dive deeper into their music.
this was fire!!! ive always loved the sounds of india.... then add metal?! Im sold! Thanks for reacting to this, im going to look for ur interview w the guitarist now!
I need to add this to my playlist! I'm a big bollywood fan and already love the cross overs to dance and rap, now a cross over to metal? I'm here for it!
At about 10 minutes there is a part in the subway which is awesome.
Nice little detail. There is a harmonic with keys that is used in traditional indian music (the guy with the blue whisers) So nice to see such traditional details as well!
Just a thing for future videos. Space Bar only stops and starts the video if you have the right parts of the player selected. Pressing "K" on the other hand will stop and start a video from wherever you are on the site.
Once again, Tank is introducing me to new, unique and cool bands. Thanks!
Thanks Tank love Bloodywood its a banger of a song.
I ust love how heavy yet positive they are. I get pumped every time I listen. And speaking of feels, man I played Jee Veeray for her and she teared up. Said we're going to that show! Lyrics hit hard.
What a video! What a song! What an energy! I LOVE THIS BAND!!! The indian part of my blood is boiling!!! \m/
Let's gooooo!
High expectations after Rakshak, especially now that they did sign. I do wonder how much Karan will still want to do (or need to) on the production side.
Love this band!!! Great reaction
Yay! New reaction video! I've missed them. Awesome song ain't it?! Been rocking all day to it 🔥
Man, I've missed these reactions.
So glad to hear you liked this one as much as I did!
Time to do Bekhauf! Always love seeing the reactions of a fellow Bloodywood fan. And appreciate the nuggets about the sound, instruments et al! One of the best reactions/podcasts I've come across!
Thanks for making me hear their music for the first time, loved it. They actually come to my hometown in France during their European tour, so I'm buying tickets as I'm writing this :)
I stumbled upon them years ago with their covers and then they dropped Jee Veerey which really helped me deal with my depression so I'm just super grateful of them for creating such meaningful lyrics. I fricking love their stuff and I hope I'll be able to see them perform in Germany (I know they had a gig in my hometown once but I was in hospital back then)
Yoooo, never heard of these guys before, that was awesome! I'ma have to check more of their stuff out.
Check Gaddar,Aaj,machi bhasad
I'm right there with you Tank, so excited to hear more from these dudes. And, as always, it's so fascinating to hear you explain the context of the gear
