I will check it out as soon as this holiday season is over. Much love and thank you! TH-cam hid this from me probably because of the link. I am so glad I checked. Sorry for the delayed response.
This comment section literally brings tears to my eyes. For almost 5 years now, I've been religiously promoting Bloodywood in reaction channels' comments sections - so to see them getting such high praise from a real, multinational fanbase just makes me so damn happy!!
I regularly search out reactions to Bloodywood. I got to see them live back in May in Chicago - best concert I've ever been to. I got to the meet boys before the concert, they are absolutely the kindest, most humble people I've ever met. And I think the fact that they're so popular and accepted is a bit surreal for them, lol.
This guys are 120% independent, u will not have any copyright issues here, trust me... AAJ, pure anthem! Please "Dana, dan" next, with CCs on, because very strong and powerful message behind it! Bro, finnaly BLOODYWOOD! YEAH Stay safe and greetz from Germany

@@PeoplecallmeLuciferConsider Orphaned Land too? Israeli Folk Metal, with a strong Mizrahi influence. They're the band that got me started looking into all kinds of folk metal.
Lol, up until now, did you ever, even once, think someday you’d be thinking “man, that guy shredded that flute solo”? 😂 They’re generally really good about reactions, as they’re 109% indie. They write it, record it, release it, promote it, shoot the videos (go check out the mini documentary on their Raj Against the Machine tour for tales of guerilla filming). And welcome to the family 🤗
and the best part is that the entire album is just straight fire. They also not on a label and do it all themselves. I been following them since before they started to do their own material.
That's one of the great thing about TH-cam. I've discovered so many new groups that were outside my usual palette of musical taste. And most of my favorite groups are from other countries/languages (BABYMETAL, Rammstein, Bloodywood,...). Music is truly universal. Great reaction as usual!!
Glad to see you've discovered Bloodywood. My favourite track of theirs is Jee Veerey it is not as intense as Dana Dan, but still has a powerful message and shows another side to this band. There is also a documentary on TH-cam that is worth watching.
I only found them a little bit earlier than you 😂 been listening to them for about 6 weeks. The documentary “ Raj against the machine” is well worth your time and so is the whole Rakshak album ❤
Woohoo! I don't know if I previously recommended these guys (I think my initial recommendation would have been "Machi Basad (I predict a riot)" They have played Wacken and stated that their goal was to "destroy pop music" They are straight up legends for their charity work, especially for things like bullying, mental health, women's rights and animal rights. After their 2019 European tour they donated free online counselling sessions and bought an ambulance for an animal charity. You are powering through your Metal journey! In the past I have not liked to add more rabbitholes for you but you are crushing it! Imma gonna suggest Japan as your next stop, (the evolution of Babymetal from Pop Princess group into serious metalheads is fascinating!) and Lovebites is a newer group that you should check out. I am also going all patriotic and recommending the depressingly talented New Zealand boys Alien Weaponry. They are quite political and often sing in Maori. Their song "Kai Tangata" effing rocks. I know just enough Maori to know that "Kai" means "food" and "tangata" means "people". Yes, that is a reference to cannibalism. The Maori did not play, and were the only indigenous people to consistently win tactical victories against the mighty British Army, despite having massively inferior equipment and usually being outnumbered by at least 10 to 1. (Fortunately the Brits were smart enough to only colonise NZ with the consent of the people who already lived there. The Treaty Of Waitangi (our founding document) guarantees Maori perpetual rights to certain resources. In 1893 we became the first real democracy in the world, where every adult, regardless of race or gender, had the vote.
Bloodywood is F'ing amazing, professionally and personally. After hearing this one I agree with many others in the comments that Jee Veerey and Dana Dan are the next 2 to watch. Both show their thoghts on important issues, and Jee Veerey made my eyes water a little bit during the song, but the tears really started to fall when Iistened to the after message and how they took their convictions and put them into action for the sake of the community.
PLEASE react to more bloodywood. Always with the captions on. I flew 23 hours from Sydney Australia to Vienna Austria to see bloodywood at novarock festival this year. Was worth thw trip
Absolutely, 100% must do more Bloodywood. Loved your Electric Callboy rabbit hole you went down. WOuld love to see you do the same with this band. They're so good and have so many banger videos. And always watch the end videos if there is one. Good stuff.
The next track of there's you need to check out is DANA DAN. That and maybe GADDAR or MACHI BASAD and you'll basically be a lifetime fan of theirs forever.
Oh, I love Bloodywood. I saw them live at Wacken 2019, when they were even more of an insider tip than they are today, and also in Cologne earlier this year. The Rakshak tour shirt is an absolute eye-catcher and a very good icebreaker, at least I've never been asked about a band shirt so often. Their song Ari Ari is also very good and has a fun video to watch.
I've been obsessed with Bloodywood for YEARS, and can not wait for them to do another tour in America. Shephard's Reign is another band that incorporates traditional instruments into their music, but Polynesian. I'd suggest starting with Ua Masa'a Also Ningen Isu is like the most adorable thing on the planet imo
Holy crap! As a huge metal head, these guys are friggin awesome. Very impressed. So glad to see this music making it's way into so many countries and cultures. Music no matter what it is has no boundries.
Finally you found Bloodywood! These guys are awesome! They bring the music and the energy so hard! And they are the most humble people ever. I love to see reactions to their videos because the suprise everybody with their awesomeness! And if you liked this they have a rabbithole for you to explore! I can recomend these too check out, Start with Dana Dan and then go for these, Ari Ari, Jee Veerey, Endurant, Machi Bhasad, Yaad, Gaddaar. Great reaction to a awesome band! Love from Sweden!💙💛💙
i dare anyone to watch Yaad's vid and not tear up. these guys are going to get huge. i never would have guessed that a band from the other side of the world would touch me in a way that few others have. EVERY BLOODYWOOD SONG IS FIRE!
What a joy it was to watch you absolutely freaking out and loving this song. Thank you so much! So many Bloodywood songs for you to get into. Go for it x
This is one of my favorite bands. All their songs are absolutely amazing. Jee Veerey is such a great song with deep meaning in it. Should definitely listen to it
@ARIAS and the Nation: Daniel, I am so happy and appreciative you reacted to this. What you need to know is that Aaj is not the first song I found by Bloodywood. A few years ago, because I am a chronic depressive, I was having a very bad day. So bad that I considered ending my own life. Yet, in my darkest hour, call it God, call it Fate, it matters not: I found Bloodywood and their track Jee Veerey. Quite literally, it is a song about overcoming depression, and Bloodywood gave me the courage and strength within to keep me fighting against the dark, that darkened, blackened rising that I still struggle with to this day. Not to say it is easy, but Jee Veerey revealed to me a purpose I have found in life: To help those who are struggling, and who feel alone. Helping others has literally bolstered my own resolve in the face of my own battles, and every day I wake up, is another battle won. Aaj is special because it isn't just an anthem to make a better choice, but the woman who you saw, Archy, is the first recognized female bagpiper in India. She is known as "The Snake Charmer," and has her own channel. I highly recommend checking out a track of hers called "Toss the Feathers," a fusion of traditional Irish folk music with Indian lyrics and instruments. It is invigorating, to say the least! And, should you react to Jee Veerey, you should know that when the video for Jee Veerey was released, Bloodywood paid out-of-pocket for 60 1-on-1 counseling sessions for anyone in the world who needed them. Doing so was so successful, that the number of sessions has increased to 10 times that original number, at now over 600.
This entire debut album regularly plays on repeat in my home, my vehicle, and my headphones. There's not a song on it that I don't like or jam out to. But don't limit yourself to the album. On their channel, some of their earlier songs are gold. I recommend Tunak Tunak Tun for a laugh - it's all the memes and catchy af.
USA Music Bubble popped ! I'm sure I'm not the only person whose been waiting for this. Gadaar, Jee Veeray, Dana Dan and Yaad. I'd recco you start with CC on (a couple have them hardwired). Such good content. More good content? - try Eluveitie(band) Rebirth(song title) a Swiss folk metal band with heavy Celtic vibes... another great, unexpected ride.
Bloodywood is amazing, love their music and the people as well. Do try their other songs as well. Also, I will recommend some more amazing bands from India for you to explore, some are metal, some are rock, but all amazing Bhayanak Maut - Just a Metal Kid, Shoreline or Ranti Nasha Parvaaz - Beparwah Avial - Nada Nada Indus Creed - Fireflies Paradigm Shift - Bekhabar or khwabon mein teri Agam - Mist of Capricorn(manavyalakinchara) Inner Sanctum - Divided by Hate
I discovered them a year ago and absolutely love them. Bought their album and hear them almost every day. My favorites are Gaddaar, and Machi Basat (probably misspelled them both).
Bloodywood is an awesome example of international metal. A few other suggestions to check out (if you haven't already) - Jinjer (Ukraine), Alien Weaponry (New Zealand), Eluveitie (Switzerland), Gojira (France), Mors Subita (Finland), Sepultura (Brazil), Heilung (Germany), Alestorm (Scotland - pirate metal, lol), Cruahan (Ireland), Septicflesh (Greece)
I'd lock to mention that Bloodywood has a power ballad for dogs! It's called "Yaad" and it's a masterpiece! Who knows maybe you've already reacted to it and I'm just late to the channel. 😅
I haven't heard this song before today!! I am very happy about this!! This is great. I'm missing the Punjab drum though. They have a lot of songs that are politically charged, and they all kick ass!! Love Bloodywood!!
Hey, I'm happy. After Tommy, Electric Callboy, Sabaton and Amaranthe, you've discovered the next band that I think is great. If I may, I'd like to recommend three more bands to you. The Mongolian folk-metal band The Hu (maybe with the Metallica cover Sad but true), the German band Lord of the Lost (Under the sun) and Conquer Divide, who you already met at F*ckboy (welcome 2 paradise). All candidates for a rabbit hole?
Happy to see Bloodywood getting out there.❤ 🪬🔥🤘💙🤘🔥🪬 I discovered them only last year but Aaj is my favorite song. Always happy to see you dipping your fingers into the musical sauces of the world buffet.😋 🥰🥰🥰Greetings from a Canadian Dear🇨🇦
I'm pretty sure the girl at the end is Archy J, aka The Snake Charmer. She has her own channel, playing the bagpipes from India! th-cam.com/channels/KHrh7fxdsCL5JjbJUqcn4A.html Bloodywood is a staple for this 61-year-old South African.

and the best part is that the entire album is just straight fire. They also not on a label and do it all themselves. I been following them since before they started to do their own material.
Don't miss their 'Gaddar' and 'Dana Dan' song their best
My two favorites of theirs.
You guys forget about Yaad? Must for all dog lovers
I see you've met Bloodywood.
That's one of the great thing about TH-cam. I've discovered so many new groups that were outside my usual palette of musical taste. And most of my favorite groups are from other countries/languages (BABYMETAL, Rammstein, Bloodywood,...). Music is truly universal. Great reaction as usual!!

man shreds that flute like a guitar solo lol
I wouldn't mind hearing more of them...
Thanks for doing this buddy, i knew you would like it. Come see me when you think you're ready for my next recommendation mwahahahaha
Bloodywood! I love them, saw them for the first time live at a summer festival in 2022 and it was "love at first listen". :D
Great to see you react to these guys. Saw them live earlier this year and it was as much fun as you might imagine. The album is brilliant. Do more
I only found them a little bit earlier than you 😂 been listening to them for about 6 weeks. The documentary “ Raj against the machine” is well worth your time and so is the whole Rakshak album ❤
Oh man, check out Gaddarr by Bloodywood sometime too, it's awesome and their message is great.
Gaddarr is one of my favorites.
I must have been under a rock close to yours Dan, as yet another group I'm new too, and my god do they rock. 🤘
Love this group! Dana Dan is intense...make sure to do subtitles if you do that one...lyrics are intense
Saw Bloodywood at Download Festival in the UK this year, one of the Highlights of the weekend.
They were amazing at download. Glad you enjoyed them too
Woohoo!

What a band for me at 63 to hear something from my country and bugger I had never heard them .
Blown away
They are so good live, so much energy.
Absolute banger of an album.
Love this band too. They are so good live. This is another rabbit hole for you to dive into Daniel.
I love the flute ❤
Bloodywood is F'ing amazing, professionally and personally. After hearing this one I agree with many others in the comments that Jee Veerey and Dana Dan are the next 2 to watch.

What a banger! also guys we have some of the same but ALSO more content that has been blocked on our Rumble: rumble.com/c/AriasNATION
Absolutely, 100% must do more Bloodywood. Loved your Electric Callboy rabbit hole you went down. WOuld love to see you do the same with this band. They're so good and have so many banger videos. And always watch the end videos if there is one. Good stuff.
Everytime I hear this I am so freaking impressed by the drum tracking!

Their song Ari Ari is also very good and has a fun video to watch.
Glad you found Bloodywood. Such an awesome band. You have so many rabbit holes to go down. Try New Zealand Metal with Alien Weaponry
The feeling Arias felt while hearing that song was an eargasm.
I've been obsessed with Bloodywood for YEARS, and can not wait for them to do another tour in America.
Shephard's Reign is another band that incorporates traditional instruments into their music, but Polynesian. I'd suggest starting with Ua Masa'a
Also Ningen Isu is like the most adorable thing on the planet imo
Check out a Japanese metal band named Ningen Isu. Their biggest song is Heartless Scat.
Holy crap! As a huge metal head, these guys are friggin awesome. Very impressed. So glad to see this music making it's way into so many countries and cultures. Music no matter what it is has no boundries.
Foooookn shrrrredddds, rock legend been goin to India to learn for a long time.. now its time for school because this band is badass
First of all, I love your hat and second I loved the band 🎸☮️

I absolutely love this band. Been following them for years. Cant wait to see them on the next US tour.
What a joy it was to watch you absolutely freaking out and loving this song. Thank you so much! So many Bloodywood songs for you to get into. Go for it x
The greatest metal anthem in years!!
This is one of my favorite bands. All their songs are absolutely amazing. Jee Veerey is such a great song with deep meaning in it. Should definitely listen to it
OK, I'm giggling at your reaction because I get to remember my first time hearing and watching this.
Bloodywood are the best. I love them. I want more. I hope they release a new album someday...anyway, glad to see others enjoy their music^^

Doing so was so successful, that the number of sessions has increased to 10 times that original number, at now over 600.
Great start. There are now two very different Bloodywood paths to follow. For emotion; "Yaad". For courage; "Dana Dan". Choose your path.
This entire debut album regularly plays on repeat in my home, my vehicle, and my headphones. There's not a song on it that I don't like or jam out to. But don't limit yourself to the album. On their channel, some of their earlier songs are gold. I recommend Tunak Tunak Tun for a laugh - it's all the memes and catchy af.
this is such a beautiful song
I watched them play this live
What a song ❤
they are the best!! I know them for about 1 year! Fantastic!
I just found Otyken and Bloodywood in the space of 36 hours. Talk about life-changing! Bloodywood is one of the most incredible bands I've ever heard.
USA Music Bubble popped !
I'm sure I'm not the only person whose been waiting for this.
Gadaar, Jee Veeray, Dana Dan and Yaad. I'd recco you start with CC on (a couple have them hardwired).
Such good content.
More good content?
- try Eluveitie(band) Rebirth(song title)
a Swiss folk metal band with heavy Celtic vibes... another great, unexpected ride.
Eluveitie is good but for celtic metal I'd suggest MiracleOfSound and his songs Grainn Mahoil and Tale of Cu Chullain
❤❤❤
Been listening to Bloodywood for quite a while now and they never cease to give me goosebumps. Brilliant band.
Within two weeks of first hearing this band i seen them live, they are an absolute blast live.
Bloodywood songs are a treat to the soul
Bloodywood are absolutely amazing! Play more .. you’ll be hooked ❤️❤️
Bloodywood is amazing, love their music and the people as well. Do try their other songs as well.
Also, I will recommend some more amazing bands from India for you to explore, some are metal, some are rock, but all amazing
Bhayanak Maut - Just a Metal Kid, Shoreline or Ranti Nasha
Parvaaz - Beparwah
Avial - Nada Nada
Indus Creed - Fireflies
Paradigm Shift - Bekhabar or khwabon mein teri
Agam - Mist of Capricorn(manavyalakinchara)
Inner Sanctum - Divided by Hate
My second favourite song of 2022 👌you're ready for the next song.. Dana Dan! 😄 Great album from them 🤟
I discovered them a year ago and absolutely love them. Bought their album and hear them almost every day. My favorites are Gaddaar, and Machi Basat (probably misspelled them both).
You need to react to Jee Veerey. Definitely one of their best song
Bloodywood is an awesome example of international metal. A few other suggestions to check out (if you haven't already) - Jinjer (Ukraine), Alien Weaponry (New Zealand), Eluveitie (Switzerland), Gojira (France), Mors Subita (Finland), Sepultura (Brazil), Heilung (Germany), Alestorm (Scotland - pirate metal, lol), Cruahan (Ireland), Septicflesh (Greece)
Flute solos are the best
6:42 "Who's this?"
That is Archy Jay AKA "The Snake Charmer"
Better late than never.... Now that you have checked them out , kindly check them out more
Each of their work carries a message.
checkout their endurant
I'd lock to mention that Bloodywood has a power ballad for dogs!
It's called "Yaad" and it's a masterpiece!
Who knows maybe you've already reacted to it and I'm just late to the channel. 😅
I haven't heard this song before today!! I am very happy about this!! This is great. I'm missing the Punjab drum though. They have a lot of songs that are politically charged, and they all kick ass!! Love Bloodywood!!
Hey, I'm happy. After Tommy, Electric Callboy, Sabaton and Amaranthe, you've discovered the next band that I think is great. If I may, I'd like to recommend three more bands to you. The Mongolian folk-metal band The Hu (maybe with the Metallica cover Sad but true), the German band Lord of the Lost (Under the sun) and Conquer Divide, who you already met at F*ckboy (welcome 2 paradise). All candidates for a rabbit hole?
We had "The HU" on the channel early on with Wolf Totem. But another video is scheduled to drop tomorrow at 12pm est (my time)
The Hu - wolf totem check out
I second this
alien weaponry - Kai Tangata - you will need to pull the lyrics up. They sing in Māori.
Happy to see Bloodywood getting out there.❤
🪬🔥🤘💙🤘🔥🪬
I discovered them only last year but Aaj is my favorite song.
Always happy to see you dipping your fingers into the musical sauces of the world buffet.😋

I'm pretty sure the girl at the end is Archy J, aka The Snake Charmer. She has her own channel, playing the bagpipes from India! th-cam.com/channels/KHrh7fxdsCL5JjbJUqcn4A.html Bloodywood is a staple for this 61-year-old South African.

Subscribed. I have a few things for you.
It's not a flute it's a piccolo
It's actually a low whistle, a larger and deeper version of the tin whistle
