@@simgem Yes, exactly, they seem very respectful of women, but also, anyone who has been, or potentially could be, SA'd. I'm not Hindu either, but I have a lot of respect for their faith, and, though I'm not religious myself, I think they have some of the most awesome deities in just about any religion. Kali, though she represents destruction and death and rage, also represents change, and creation. She's a multifaceted Goddess, and I think she's a perfect representation for the message the song is sending.
So true, this song appears in my recommended and I don't even speak the language, i'm from Argentina Since I met them I haven't stopped listening to them
this is EXACTLY what metal is for; sticking up for our fellow people against terrible people doing horrible shit in order to bring on a better world. fantastic song.
THIS WAS IN THE CLIMAX OF MONKEY MAN, I HYPED IN THE THEATER WHEN THE DRUMS AT THE START KICKED IN LIKE "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY'RE PLAYING DANA DAN OVER THIS FIGHT SCENE"
Legitimately when the song started I was like "why does this sound familiar?" Then the vocals started. That was definitely a hype moment, particularly because I recognized the song!
Damn, "fuck every man for himself, it's every man for every man", this is exactly the train of thought that the people of today's world need to have. Having the dancers do that hardcore step and headbang was a perfect touch too.
"I put a fist through the face of a rapist and yeah, I tape this, for the viewing pleasure of the nameless faces he disgraces." Best opening line in music history.
They should play this song whenever Se_val Assault Awareness Month comes around ... It'll make a lot of guys THINK TWICE b4 they decide to serve needs 2 their frankfurters against their partners' (male or female) wills. I'd know that I would just HATE to be in that frontman's crosshairs for criminally violating somebody; I know that much. 😲😯😳🥴
I saw Monkey Man today and nearly lost it when this came on during one of the biggest fights. I just started banging my head in the theatre while trying to watch the film. Loads of people are talking about the music in that scene online and don't know this is the song. Googling the soundtrack doesn't mention it, or any of the other licensed songs (just the original compositions for the soundtrack). Amazing song, and perfect choice for the scene, where the Dev Patel character and his transgender women allies annihilate a bunch of pimps, gangsters and corrupt cops- i.e. all abusers of women. !..!,
@@commodoresan7275 nah, that is different issue. Not on Trangenders (India already got a big communit of them, remember). It's just the same old formula of vilifying sages of Hinduism. Potray all 'babas' in bad light. That would get a big pushback from religious community.
I was robbed of my innocence by the husband of my mother's friend at 6. She covered up his actions, and told me to keep it secret. Dana dan hy sahih. We can no longer sacrifice indian women in the name of "saving face"
A person who commit this horrible act of violence must LOSE any respect he/she have amidst its society. "Saving face" must be only to allow its victims to break it with whatever is at hand - clubs, stones, their fists...
@@Jamhael1sadly, in most cases it is the victim that will lose all her dignity and respect. Even in modern western civilisations more often then not the victim will be turned into the one at fault. "You must have lead him on" "with these kind of clothes you where asking for it" it is just sick and disgusting.
@@renehartung8877 there was a museum exhibition that showed clothes of the victims of SA, and it was an incredibly varied presentation - it goes from burqas to children's clothes... And about "leading"? Well, what kind of imbecile think that a woman "owes" to a man because the guy took her to dinner or something? As a cis hetero male, I just see SA perpetrators of my gender and sex as a mark of shame...
I know this song is meant to pump you up but I can't help but cry, it's so nice to see men sing and scream about things like this. I was unfortunately sexually abused as a child and this made me cry so much and I can't explain why. I don’t speak hindi but I've subscribed, this is one of my favorite songs now. Much love!
I’m not sure if I’m right with this because I’m not Indian but I don’t think Hindi is an ethnicity, just the language that North Indians speak? Just saw what you said at the end and wanted to clarify
@@theclumsyprepper If a song talks about rape, why wouldn't people in the comments discuss their experiences with rape? Sounds like you need therapy too if you're this bothered by someone being open about their trauma, which in itself is good for your mental health than keeping it bottled up.
Does that include Shane Seyer, who at 13 had been raped by his female babysitter, and then subsequently ordered to pay her child support despite her having been convicted in the criminal trial? Or every other boy or man in a similar situation where every single judge, without fail, ruled exactly the same due to the precedent set by Hermesmann vs. Seyer? Does it include the 1,715,000 men that the CDC's 2012 NIPSVS discovered had been raped... sorry... "made to penetrate" (as the CDC calls it) within the previous 12 months, over 80% of whom had a female perpetrator? Compare that figure to the 1,473,000 female victims of what the CDC did consider to be rape within the exact same time frame. Yes, you did read those numbers right. Does it include my boyfriend, himself a rape survivor? Since, y'know, we're talking collective responsibility for a specific kind of crime on the part of a specific demographic (and only that demographic) that hosts millions upon millions of victims of such crimes.
@@tundrance Is it only men? That’s a rather extraordinary claim. I assume you have extraordinary evidence to back up your claim that it is *_only men_* to blame for female rapists being swept under the rug. While you’re doing your darndest to scrounge up the evidence I’m sure you have, ponder this quote by high profile feminist (and woman) Mary Koss: “It is inappropriate to consider as a rape victim a man who engages in unwanted sexual intercourse with a woman.” The very same Mary Koss who served as senior consultant, expert panelist, advisor, etc. etc. etc. with the CDC on the very same National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Surveys whose 2012 numbers I quoted verbatim in my previous reply. In which they followed her “expert” advice exactly and *_excluded female-on-male rape from the definition of rape._* She served in that capacity for *_decades._* Ponder also the fact that in Israel, they almost passed a law that would have expanded the definition of rape to include instances of female-on-male rape, and it was shut down. By feminist groups. I’m sure some of the members of those groups were men. But I highly doubt all. Or even most. Just a hunch.
@@tundrance Also, I like how your response to me conclusively proving that a highly significant number of rapists are women is not to acknowledge that this should therefore be an issue that is everybody's responsibility to address, heavens to Betsy no, your response is to double down on the idea that it is men's and *_only men's_* responsibility because... it's allegedly only other men who make it more difficult for male rape victims to be taken seriously. That niggling little detail that the vast majority of those who rape men are women is inconsequential, of course.
@@radicaldreamer927 im not reading allat but anyways people like you who argue this shit seem to never bring it up unless you're doing it to silence or put down people who are talking about womens struggles. all of these problems you're describing are a result of the patriarchy; a system that was created BY MEN and upheld BY MEN for centuries. women are much more supportive to male victims than men are. don't be fcking ridiculous.
As a Delhiite, I am so proud of these boys being fellow Delhiites. There's so much evil in our city, especially against girls and women. It makes me feel happy to know that there are boys like them who would stand up for us with us.
while at the same time youtube is deleting all of the videos of the "Lady Dons" a vicious all female street gang from Mumbai who has ties to the Thuggee Cult isn't that where the word "Thug" comes from? yeah!!!!!!! The same white people who you idiots worship with your caste system are the ones responsible for these sex crimes. This is retarded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a man who was assaulted sexually, I really appreciate that the victims are gender neutral. I felt included in a way I don't always get to in these conversations and with how powerful this song was, it felt like a pretty bad ass thing to be included in.
I've often wondered how males feel being sorry if left out of the solutions or the conversations. The spot light is definitely on females. We truly need to change that. And also.... thanks for speaking about it. The more other males see it's ok... the more healing can be done. ❤
Holy crap! I watched this because I saw "Indian Folk Metal" and thought, "this could be entertaining", sort of as a joke. But holy f*ck that was incredible. Damn, the most powerful and meaningful song I've heard in a long time. I will be watching a lot more videos from this band.
I'm not Indian, but I resonate with a lot of these lyrics. I was groped by a man in a mall, in front of my mother, who later denied what had happened to my face. Later in my life I was almost the victim of an attempted rape, by my boyfriend. Victims of rape should no longer be nameless, faceless numbers. We are no longer asking for recognition. We are ordering it.
I’m sorry to hear 😞. One of life’s best pleasures is when the woman comes onto you. I barely do anything except be myself and they love it. This is the WAY.
@@DonTheMoron716 Thank you. I'm glad there are more people out there like you who aren't afraid to simply be who they are, and not take advantage of someone who loves them.
I appreciate the hell out of all the trigger warnings and the message of this song. The absolute ripping apart of abusers. The in your face cry of “BE BETTER.” And “WE HAVE TO FIX THIS.” I’m so glad I stumbled on this song.
I'm absolutely enamoured by this take. We may one day be able to convince people that the horrible things are wrong, but until then - BRING THE BEATDOWN
@@likwidflamewith increasing ai stuff I'm sure human will not no the deep down meaning of rape is love making children n having sex with current loneliness n ai stuff the future' will get bitter in earth where human will face extinction abusers re good if it until it murder a body n free his/her soul.in past if absues were not tha case then the world will get fucked up no babies I will say that about 30-40 percent of children' re born of abuse so this doens't count anything' abuse doens't actually make a person bad it gives the responsibility n reminders that we need to continue as human race this all modern feminsim n others have broke a generation with social media they're not having children more n more feminist re going with chads staff nmost man re single now with no children I know as a guy with no gf I will forgive if some guy abused me sometimes like abuse as a guy if other guy want it without my permission.genghis khan descendants re born of sex slaves.we must lt know the future is far dangerous than ai stuff the future is all about ai n sex bots n sex girlfriends then we humans re extinct ni matter what howmuch we selfish maybe but it doens't make us monsters when we absues sexually may be yes physically is bad but we need to accept were born of rape n most man ancient times re born of rape n no marriage or marital rape.when we think of future being abuse free we need to know that abuse free will not be possible in future if we have no children more sexual arges n more rape
“Not all men Yes all men, need all men for what we’re solving” I wish more men understood this. I dont listen to metal but you might just be the first group i become a fan of. Never stop speaking up through your art❤
Other commenters have spoken at length about the raw power and fury of the metal genre throwing its weight behind such an important message and about the local Indian instrumentation and cultural imagery at play, so I wanna point out something else that popped out at me. I am terribly fond of bilingual wordplay. I can't help but notice that the chorus chant of "De! De! De!" sounds to my English-speaking ears like "Die! Die! Die!", and I am delighted by how flawlessly that misheard lyric matches up with the subject matter of beating sexual predators within an inch of their lives.
Yeah that was awesome! I immediately was trying to sing parts of the song and the beatdown breakdown is so good in Hindi? (it is Hindi right? My ignorance is definilty showing, but I would like to know!).
@@kpop__whistler7734 Thanks for explaining that ~ I did google translate "de", and it said "give" but I didn't know how accurate that was, or what it meant in context.
Most positive men don't attract attention to themselves. This is a two-edged sword. We only tend to hear about the repeat, repeat, repeat offenders, which are a very small minority of absolute psychopaths.
While i think most sane people agree sexual violence is terrible, im not sure I would call singing about how badly you want to commit physical violence against them is "positive masculinity". I do understand people who feel the urge to be violent against people who harmed them or someone they know. But seems strange to use as a general message to make your music seem more "badass".
There was an Indian woman in the comments saying she cried the first time hearing this... it's like my 20th time and I still tear up. Being a near victim of trafficking and later abuse as a child... a freakish Japanese red headed green eyed girl... I was an exotic prize for monsters and blamed my entire life for it. This was in America by the way. So any ignorant people need to realize this happens everywhere. Right in front of your faces. Because you let it happen. Now that I am older and I broke free, nearly dying to free my three sisters who were lucky not to be abducted but in a bad situation also... it feels so... freeing to hear that there are men that actually understand the pain and want to help... you can hear the rage and anger in their voices. You can feel that this is personal from the dancers. I hope that rage will fill you all with courage to rise up when things like this happen. The cycle stops with you.
@@Konsciencia1111 I'd trade you if I could. There really isn't anything good about being a woman. Being a man, however, you have an opportunity to be the change. Teach girls how to use weaponry to defend themselves. Encourage them to stick together. And teach boys and men how consent works. For their own sake, too.
@rakashael Definitely insightful. You are right in all aspects. Take care and much Love coming from a man that understands the view of Women. You have to understand though, that Women are more Powerful than men. You just have to see it for yourself.
I've come here after I heard about the incident in a hospital in India, I hope justice will come to the victim. I can't believe authorities are protecting someone who killed and raped a sleeping doctor brutally. No woman in that hospital is safe until the one responsible is locked up for life. I hope all the protests will be heard. Thank you guys for making this song, still one of my favorites.
I love how this song bounces between the primal rage of beating up rapists and a call for anyone who’s redeemable to join in and change society for the better. It makes no excuses but brings people together rather than creating division.
I don't know if it's really bringing people together to simultaneously blame men for rape, thereby ignoring female rapists and male victims, and then suggest that only men can solve the problem by beating up rapists. I realize that, in India, they legally don't acknowledge all forms of rape, but I'm from the US.
@@DrachonaTheWolf tbh, this is still a step in the right direction - the overwhelming amount of rapists are men, even if sometimes their victims are also men. Female rapists exist and they're horrible for sure, but most of the world - the West included - lets even male rapists get away; there are extremely powerful men - who each rape hundreds of women; and they were allowed to do so for _decades._ Yes, there are female rapists and they're horrible... but I don't know exactly how many of them have the reach, power and body count that male rapists often have. Currently, male rapists are the biggest threat; they simply aren't the only threat. They also talked about "change their kind with my mind" but until then, they beat up the rapists. I mean shit, there are male survivors here in the comment section supporting this song, so you're not even speaking out for some unheard or unseen victims.
@@DrachonaTheWolf Also, with the line "Fuck every man for himself; It's every man for every man and everybody else" like... you could also interpret "man" in the general "mankind" way, where all huMANs look out for each other, which would mean everyone looking out for all survivors. But you just want to see things in an adversarial light where no one cares about the issues you're talking about, sowing more division instead of helping to solve the problem and be a part of the human collective working to make the world a better place. Re-evaluate your priorities a little and learn when the fight you're talking about needs to happen; because there are definitely times where the points you're bringing up are good and needed.... but this isn't one of those times. At least not in the way you broached it.
I love everything about this. Kali is creation, destruction, chaos, order, wrath, and compassion. If you liked this song, I highly recommend The Song of Women by The Hu (a Mongolian metal band) that is in a similar theme. Izzy Hale from Halestorm features in one version where she sings the English translation if you're curious 🤟🏻
I teared up watching this. I joined my local metal scene in my teens but left when I felt unsafe due to several… unsavory encounters. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to rejoin and view it in a positive light. Thank you guys for channeling your artistry to empower sexual assault survivors
I cried as well, and I also had to leave the metal scene. The last time I went to an under metal show someone put something in my drink and I had to go away as fast as possible and call an Uber. We need to retake our place in metal, metal belongs to us women as well.
@@karyshieldmaiden2041 Where do you and @juliapollina9082 go to concerts? Any show I've been at, anyone being inappropriate to any women would be swiftfly dealt with. Unpleasantly dealt with.
Same haha I literally knew from the first few seconds or so despite not even hearing this one yet lol. Scene went so crazy, Patel is incredibly certified for including this
I was sexually abused by a jehovah’s witness elder starting from the time I was 4 years old. thank you so much for making this, it made me cry. the chorus especially touched me “watch as an apparent saint becomes a monster behind the curtains” you guys are doing amazing work, please keep it up!
Oh my god, I am a currently non practicing jw but i still respect and believe and that is actually the most horrifying thing I've ever heard. That is such a violation. i hope he is rotting in jail. He will pay for how he hurt you.
Sexual assault is the one act that is truly and in every case unforgivable. There's such a thing as justifiable homicide, there are honorable reasons to steal, and you can beat someone down in defense. There has never once been a justifiable rape.
was that the blue lady? I'm honestly a bit sad that I'm not getting all the references in this video (yet) because I know that there are more. The only thing I knew is that the blue skin is pretty common with Hindu gods, but it was a lot to keep track of last time I tried to learn about it
Scandinavian here, playlists full of soft voices and melodies - love haunting kind of sad songs - quiet songs like musical poetry. I want my music to say all of the things I feel and have no words for in a pretty and soulful way. Something I can whisper along with and still feel understood. That being said, I fucking love this song. I don't know the words and the culture is foreign, but the rage - the message. It's in my bones.
@@thespcrewroy8716 People in Sweden should rape less? I would argue people everywhere should rape less. As a victim I get to indulge in selfish thoughts of violence and anger: This piece of absolute art speaks to that (in regards to myself)- and to the mentality of community responsibility to stop a rampant issue of victimizing others. People holding each other accountable and responsible for stopping problematic/rapist culture. But I do not condone a government - mine or my neighbor's - to abuse their power against its' citizen - because you cannot treat a symptom of dysfunction with more dysfunctional behavior: You cannot make a person change by making them suffer, and a country cannot abuse their citizen and remain civilized. That's not what my comment was meant to convey, and I apologize if I gave you some kind of impression by mentioning my roots. I only meant to highlight that I'm foreign to the subtleties and significance of the nuance in the video - and despite that, it still speaks to me in a way I understand and connect with. I would rather my abusers be treated professionally and humanely (because we have the means to), so that they never abuse, rape, or molest another ever again, than giving in to satisfy my darkest and innermost desires of vengeance. It's not my call to make, but since you replied with your comment here, I'll make my stance clear. My monsters were born and bred from my own country's soil: And they're not the only monsters native to my country. We have our own issues with the old preying on the young - with violence, and with rape. We don't need to point outwards because the issue is not something suddenly arriving, it's been here since those who could and would began to take: And that issue is as old as human kind, directly related to how we nurture and treat our kids and each other. Furthermore, I've been met with more kindness from complete strangers than my own family - my own friends and lovers would continue in ignorant bliss than confront wolves in their midst, or change their own predatory ways. I wouldn't be so fast to condemn those foreign just because they seem unfamiliar. Your mind is conditioned to seek out what is familiar because you know what to expect and the unknown feels dangerous. In Scandinavia we have many generations of familial bonding with our neighbors who look and sound and think similar to ourselves - but that doesn't mean that the traumatized asylum-seeking or hopeful immigrating population deserve any less of what we might offer: For would we not be some kind of monsters to prey on them? In a way, that is victimizing them for not being born and raised among us, and that is also monstrous, in my opinion. It helps to think of all people as human beings, same as you - regardless of skin tone, heritage, or culture. We are people, and all people deserve a space for growth and understanding. Please, be kind. Immigration politics are unnecessary in this forum. Rape is rape, no matter who does it.

Based on the lyrics and the sound of this song and Gaddaar alone, I ordered the most expensive version of the physical album, the first actual CD I've spent money on in 16 years.

Considering how India is one of the many third world countries with alarming crime rates against women, this song is EXACTLY what people need to hear. I hope that other countries like mine, Brazil, get to learn from this song for the sake of the ladies
Their actual rate of sexual violence is far lower than Brazils(less than a third) but the hinduphobic western media likes to promote the shit diving slumdog image of India...for dog whistle activists

I opened and watched this video solely because of the image of the dancer portraying Kali when it popped up in my feed. I'm not a metal listener or fan. But I have to say, the message of this great song fits perfectly with the cathartic release that comes from the driving sound, rage, and feel of metal music. And Kali, the goddess of destruction, death, and mother nature is absolutely the perfect symbol for this music genre and especially the topic of this song. Well done, Bloodywood, and thank you for singing about such an important topic.
Seeing this group of men choose to use their talents, their passion, and their platform to boldly and unapologetically defend women and hold other men accountable.... Is one of the most powerful things I've seen in a damn long time. As a woman, I am moved. I am thankful. I am brought to tears. You guys have some serious talent, and you could've channeled that talent into a song about anything. But you didn't choose just anything. You chose this. Thank you.
Go through their other songs like endurant, Jee Veree, and Yaad. They use their music as their way to shine a light on the things most people choose to turn away from or only talk about. Stay to the end and see they dont just talk but act. Besides the fact they make phenomenal music this is the reason I will gladly share their songs to any who may have an interest.
@@79thinline Oh yeah, absolutely everything they do is incredible. I just got the CD in, and I have the vinyl on order. I'm hoping they eventually do some concerts in the US. I'd love to go support this wonderful group of humans in person. 💖
I broke up a rape when I was 22 years old. It was crazy. I was a Marine Corps Reservist living in Las Vegas at the time. I pulled a firearm on him. I had to testify in court later on. The memory of that event is tough. But I'm proud that I didn't hesitate in the moment. And I love this track!!!
@@BrazilianImperialist Actually, yes. Not all men are rapists, but men have a responsibility to protect women and children. That makes us men! Otherwise you are part of the problem. Looking away or ignoring sexual transgression to women is a very bad example for your son or daughter if you decide to become a parent.
Im not even gunna lie my first time hearing this and I am teary eyes wth?! Hard rock and im loving it. Im going to have to hear more!! India is bringing it! Awesome stuff im hype at work yes!!!!!!
I don't think I've ever been brought to tears by a metal band. Not sad tears, but I guess wholesome tears if that's a thing. While I am generally opposed to violence, the potential of righteous violence makes me feel safe and protected. I also love that Kali is represented along side this. 💙 Thank you for this.
I don't think I've ever sobbed while listening to metal before. This isn't my usual cup of tea but I'm really glad I listened to this. I needed to know there were people who care and are willing to defend people like me who have been hurt by this kind of violence. It's so comforting and loud and angry and I love it. Y'all have made a metal fan of me
Welcome to metal~~ the right kinds can explore dark topics and give you the strength to keep going. it's what kept me a metalhead. To me, they're screaming WITH you, not AT you; at least the good shit. DevilDriver - Daybreak is also a really good song.
Not all men are equal, unfortunately. Most of us care for you and will do our best to hold you high and protect you and I'm really sorry we failed you. I do hope you're in a better place right now and are doing your best to live your life the fullest. It pains me that I can't do a damn thing for you or all the people around here except sending kind words. Please be well, and please take care.
Man…I only recently found out about this band and I am hooked. They do metal the way that ONLY Indians can and it is bloody incredible!! I wish these guys every success imaginable. I’m glad you’re proud. These guys rock 🤘🤘🤘
As a child sexual assault survivor, I always felt embraced by the content of other survivors, even though so many people complain about how "violence doesn't solve everything". But I never knew I could feel this good about the support and shout-out from guys who don't apparently know the trauma first-hand (because sexual assault against men is just as real), and yet go all the way out to meet me eye to eye in the rage. This song has such a special place in my heart, now.
Of course violent solves nothing, but whoever defines self-expression and violence, needs to reconsider the definition of self expression and violence. Thinking or saying the things you angrily desire to do to those who have harmed you, that’s not violence, that’s venting. As long as it doesn’t exceed that and it’s not repetitive for years on end, meaning you’re not basically wallowing into the emotion and just expressing oneself like they are here, which I expect also you’re probably in the good so don’t worry, but anyways yeah I’m just describing and further validating that there’s nothing wrong here, and this does not go in the category of violence, rather self expression, which is important. Your feelings are hurt, and they need to be heard. It’s about time that we take away the stigma of expressing oneself in whatever means necessary as long as it’s not harming anyone. You don’t have to be nice and express yourself, that’s hindering. If you have to think about social norms while self expressing, then that’s sad. I wish you much healing, and much love and hugs 💕🤗
Seeing men acknowledge the constant fear of sexual violence that women face is so, so valuable. And to not only acknowledge, but to comment on it, to offer solutions (change men, change patriarchal and sexist socities), and to offer protection as well (if you're an abuser, we smash your head in). This would be an amazing message and song coming from any country, but hearing this from an indian band, from indian men, makes it even more special. Thank you.
@@matchbox1275EDITED; I would recommend looking up statistics to do with violence against women, SA etc in India. Honor and dowry killings are an issue as well, and female infanticide. Bare in mind this is NOT all areas of India, as someone else in the comments pointed out many major cities are very safe, but as in any country there's areas that aren't. Also bare in mind India as a whole has lovely people, with rich cultures and an amazing array of languages, and amazing food. It was brought to my attention this could be seen as unintentionally pushing the stereotype that Indian men are rapists, which is absolutely not my intention, hence I am bringing it up to ensure clarity
Big part of the problem is the ridiculous "us against them" that exist between genders and it really doesn't make sense. Men need to start seing sexual assault on women as sexual assault on their own, it's not the women's problem, it's our problem. Women are not other people, they are our people, an attack on women is an attack on everybody.
I just hope you know that the vast majority of men feel the same way this band does. Rapists are sub-human, worth less than the dirt beneath our feet, and can only live in fear of being found out by the rest of us.
They Are Symbolising Mother Kaali 🕉️🔥🔱 Read about Her that will express what they trying to say with Her .... To understand song and Answer of every injustice Mother Kaali is the Answer as symbolised here...
@jisatsu keki Go back to playing your video games. Between you and "Project DarkWolf", it seems i'm the only Adult, that's who. Grow up and get real job.
@@hellboundrubber4448 and your name sounds like you were given it at a BDSM party, you are a troll, he is a conservationist, and probably has a better idea of what "wholesome" is than you ever will, so take your stupid comments and try to find someone who actually gives a fuck
Im a repeat survivor of rape abuse with many loved ones who were also raped/molested. I get crazy anxiety attacks and nightmares because of the trauma and last night was really hard for me. I just found your band and Im in love with everything about you guys. Officially my favorite band rn.
You're amazing just for being alive, I hope everyone who ever abused you taste a boot in their throats 'cause that's what they deserve. Take care and wish you to heal from all this ❤.
as someone who's also dealt with way too much awful shit, i also highly recommend a band called Citizen Soldier. All their music is about mental health stuff, and i relate SO HARD to everything they sing. if you find peace in music that has strong emotions, i think you might like them
This coming from one of the countries that needs it the most is beautiful. I get emotional every time I listen to this. I was almost r worded when I was 17 by someone in his 50's. My friend that came to me that day will always hold a special place in my heart. She genuinely saved me. I still struggle from it but I know it could have been SO much worse.
Any other victims find themselves in tears by the end? Never even heard of this group before the video but the thought of saying thank you to them for the message left me crying. This is so validating. Thank you Bloodywood for this gift. Thank you for believing us and speaking out it such a huge way.
Impressive considering that India has a huge misogyny problem. I'm not Indian, but these are my brothers in arms. This song is how I feel... Total frisson
@@PaullaLuizza to me it felt halfway like unlocking, and halfway like shining lights on things I've always insisted were in the room but no one would look at before.
every time i listen it shakes my emotions to my core. i always cry from the power of the music and the message of the lyrics without fail. it’s a masterpiece of a song AND music video
I like that the lead dancer painted herself in dark blue, which imply that she portrays herself as Kali, the goddess of destruction and power. While various mythologies tend to associate goddess with beauty, love, motherhood, or fertility, Kali from Hindu mythology is associated with time, change, power, creation, and destruction. She is the illustration of Shakti and she destroys the evil in order to protect the innocent. In a song about fighting sexual violence and protecting sexual assault victims, portraying Kali as an icon is very suiting, in my opinion.
Kali Maa is also a Mother Goddess. In some myths She is born from Durga's rage at Her children being harmed. Kali is sometimes viewed as an incarnation of the collective protective fury of mothers. She is also a primal Goddess, governing time, creation, destruction, revenge, and protection. Sometimes She is viewed as the Mother of mothers. I love Her. I love this video, too.
I mean, most of the well known polytheistic religions and mythologies have war/death/destruction/hunt/etc goddesses. Sekhmet, Menhit, Pakhet, Athena, Artemis, Diana, Minerva, Nerio, Vacuna, Bellona, Frigga, Dis, Gna, Amatarasu, on and on and on... ...indeed, it's more rare for a major polytheistic religion/mythology to NOT have a female warrior deity of some sort.
@@justincider8892 its one thing to condemn it and another thing to constantly allow it to happen even if you're just doing it subconsciously. if more guys put their foot down and threaten bashing a rapists head in, i think more men would take it seriously than if a woman says it.
As a child SA survivor I'm baffled by the strong and unapologetically way this message is being put out there with this song, you guys are amazing, I thank you for amplifying all of our unheard voices 🙏❤🔥 This is the first time I listen to you guys and it shook me to my core, thank you❤🩹
Exactly, and therefore I (as a male) took a still close up-photo of her and put & use it now as my personal Facebook-pages profile photo! ;-) :-) :DestroyerOfEvil: :ThanksBloodywoodAgain!:
As a SA survivor in the Indian community, I sincerely thank you for writing this song. I've been told to be quiet or else the family will fall apart. Protect Indian women. Edit: you all are so sweet im beyond grateful for the positive feedback. I sincerely hope this message can help other victims feel supported and acknowledged. 💖
That sounds like a bunch of fucks who need to be beaten down and refused at every turn. Bring that "family" DOWN and expose them for the savage demons they are.
As a rape survivor, there's a few heads I'd like to wear on a belt, so this embodiment is so so soothing and validating. Mother Kali is to be respected!✊ Y'all are amazing.
@@fawnieee do you see both men who make fun of them and men who say things like "protect this woman at all cost" to them? If not then there might be a problem
I never thought this song will apply to the US, but here we are 2024. The "your body, my choice" people have a world of pain coming for them as it is deserved.
After a late night of blissfully falling down the rabbit hole, I am completely in love with y'all as a band. It's incredible. As a middle aged white American lady who has only a mild interest in metal, y'all have officially blown my mind and become my new favorite. Thank you from the bottom of my very soul for this song. For all women. For all men. This needs to be heard. And how can you not hear such passion?!
I think we need to start a middle aged white american lady Bloodywood fan group. (My 6 year old is head banging behind me as I listen to this. He only likes "epic" music, so this song has his official approval, too.)
I love how Bloodywood has broken most stereotypes of metal bands being run by hyper masculine/ misogynist men, especially in our country where metal music is rare to see. I wish a bright future ahead for them, into mainstream culture and the popularity that they deserve
@@silvsilvsilvgeneralizations like that are harmful. There's plenty of good in metal. Gojira is the first that comes to mind. They're strong advocates for environmental protection. Just...no. It's a good genre just like all other music
Part of my recovery from the abuse and assaults I experienced is to listen to metal, because I feel like it gives voice to all the rage I feel as a result. Thank you guys for this song, I can feel it in my heart and it's amazing
man. like half of the time I listen to this, I start crying. like as a survivor of repeat sexual abuse and assault it means so much. it's not treated as a simple thing to not due just because it's bad, it's because it ruins people's lives and it's a disgusting thing to do that affects *real people.* idk so many messages about anti rape and the like feels so flat but this feels so genuine. like they *actually* care and it's not parroting it from other people. this song makes me feel believed and protected in a weird way I can't explain
Metalheads continuing to be some of the most excellent human beings. Love the message, love the music. Mad respect to both vocalists for pulling off some of the most difficult vocal styling in such tight layering.
This makes me so proud to be an Indian, also I absolutely love how you guys are fearless to write about rather important current affairs, you guys will always have a fan base, I can grant you that.
When he said, "fuck every man for himself. It's every man for every person" I started tearing up. I felt the warrior in him speak to mine. We must stand for the weak. The powers that be want us to be callous so they can continue to destroy us. Don't let them!
11 years ago a stranger broke into my home and raped me... very violently. The attack lasted around 4 hours. He beat me and choked me and threatened my life. I am lucky to be alive. I didn't have the strength to turn him in. I stayed home from work and healed for a few days and then just went on as if nothing happened. I finally found the strength to talk about it in 2017. I tell my story now in hopes that other individuals going through a similar situation know they are not alone. I felt alone in my secret for so long. If you have experienced sexual violence in your life and you're afraid to talk, please break your silence. Don't let the monster take anything else from you. I spent years in my own personal hell. It wasn't necessary. I now know everyone still loved me and respected me despite what had happened. And that beast no longer has power over me. If you are struggling with your own story, know that I love you. This song shows that there are people half way around the world from me that would've protected me. There are so many good men out there. Thank you Bloodywood for making this song. It gives me hope for my daughter's future.
Thank you for your testimony. I send you healing love. We're reaching critical mass as the Earth herself is being destroyed as women everywhere are being destroyed. Kali Ma will show us the way. Mother of Destruction.
??? Wtf, this language was made for metal-- ABSOLUTELY yes!!!! Living for the chorus, love the message and how endulgent it is in just not standing for shit!!!!
the song and the imagery of Kali really capture the essence of righteous anger. absolute BANGER.
Agree❤
This ⬆️🎯
Yes, I love Kali's presence in the video!
I'm not Indian or Hindu but I thought that was great too. Really helped show the band's respect for femininity imo.
@@simgem Yes, exactly, they seem very respectful of women, but also, anyone who has been, or potentially could be, SA'd. I'm not Hindu either, but I have a lot of respect for their faith, and, though I'm not religious myself, I think they have some of the most awesome deities in just about any religion. Kali, though she represents destruction and death and rage, also represents change, and creation. She's a multifaceted Goddess, and I think she's a perfect representation for the message the song is sending.

Best opening line in music history.
came to comment section to write this, thanks for beating me to it :)
It's the rawest thing in recent music history.
Everytime I hear this, I see myself taking off me every man who ever harassed or assaulted me and beating the crap out of him.
They get messed up in India.
They should play this song whenever Se_val Assault Awareness Month comes around ... It'll make a lot of guys THINK TWICE b4 they decide to serve needs 2 their frankfurters against their partners' (male or female) wills. I'd know that I would just HATE to be in that frontman's crosshairs for criminally violating somebody; I know that much. 😲😯😳🥴
I saw Monkey Man today and nearly lost it when this came on during one of the biggest fights. I just started banging my head in the theatre while trying to watch the film. Loads of people are talking about the music in that scene online and don't know this is the song. Googling the soundtrack doesn't mention it, or any of the other licensed songs (just the original compositions for the soundtrack).
Amazing song, and perfect choice for the scene, where the Dev Patel character and his transgender women allies annihilate a bunch of pimps, gangsters and corrupt cops- i.e. all abusers of women. !..!,
yea im glad i watched it with captions, because that's how i found the name
Transgender women? That too several? Now I understand why its taking so long for our Censor Board to approve its release here.
@@commodoresan7275 nah, that is different issue. Not on Trangenders (India already got a big communit of them, remember). It's just the same old formula of vilifying sages of Hinduism. Potray all 'babas' in bad light. That would get a big pushback from religious community.
That's so EPIC, yo.
I was robbed of my innocence by the husband of my mother's friend at 6. She covered up his actions, and told me to keep it secret. Dana dan hy sahih. We can no longer sacrifice indian women in the name of "saving face"
I am so sorry for what you went through, that is absolutely horrible. Please know you are a strong woman. Hugs ❤
A person who commit this horrible act of violence must LOSE any respect he/she have amidst its society.
"Saving face" must be only to allow its victims to break it with whatever is at hand - clubs, stones, their fists...
That horrible. While you are scarred I hope you continue to live. That is injustice against you and your innocence. Have better days to come
@@Jamhael1sadly, in most cases it is the victim that will lose all her dignity and respect. Even in modern western civilisations more often then not the victim will be turned into the one at fault. "You must have lead him on" "with these kind of clothes you where asking for it" it is just sick and disgusting.
@@renehartung8877 there was a museum exhibition that showed clothes of the victims of SA, and it was an incredibly varied presentation - it goes from burqas to children's clothes...
And about "leading"? Well, what kind of imbecile think that a woman "owes" to a man because the guy took her to dinner or something?
As a cis hetero male, I just see SA perpetrators of my gender and sex as a mark of shame...
I know this song is meant to pump you up but I can't help but cry, it's so nice to see men sing and scream about things like this. I was unfortunately sexually abused as a child and this made me cry so much and I can't explain why. I don’t speak hindi but I've subscribed, this is one of my favorite songs now. Much love!

“Not all men. Yes all men, need all men for what we’re solving.” This line! This line all day!!!
Does that include Shane Seyer, who at 13 had been raped by his female babysitter, and then subsequently ordered to pay her child support despite her having been convicted in the criminal trial? Or every other boy or man in a similar situation where every single judge, without fail, ruled exactly the same due to the precedent set by Hermesmann vs. Seyer? Does it include the 1,715,000 men that the CDC's 2012 NIPSVS discovered had been raped... sorry... "made to penetrate" (as the CDC calls it) within the previous 12 months, over 80% of whom had a female perpetrator? Compare that figure to the 1,473,000 female victims of what the CDC did consider to be rape within the exact same time frame. Yes, you did read those numbers right. Does it include my boyfriend, himself a rape survivor? Since, y'know, we're talking collective responsibility for a specific kind of crime on the part of a specific demographic (and only that demographic) that hosts millions upon millions of victims of such crimes.
@@radicaldreamer927 who's fault is it that male victims are not taken seriously? oh.. right... other men!
@@tundrance Is it only men? That’s a rather extraordinary claim. I assume you have extraordinary evidence to back up your claim that it is *_only men_* to blame for female rapists being swept under the rug.
While you’re doing your darndest to scrounge up the evidence I’m sure you have, ponder this quote by high profile feminist (and woman) Mary Koss: “It is inappropriate to consider as a rape victim a man who engages in unwanted sexual intercourse with a woman.”
The very same Mary Koss who served as senior consultant, expert panelist, advisor, etc. etc. etc. with the CDC on the very same National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Surveys whose 2012 numbers I quoted verbatim in my previous reply. In which they followed her “expert” advice exactly and *_excluded female-on-male rape from the definition of rape._* She served in that capacity for *_decades._*
Ponder also the fact that in Israel, they almost passed a law that would have expanded the definition of rape to include instances of female-on-male rape, and it was shut down. By feminist groups. I’m sure some of the members of those groups were men. But I highly doubt all. Or even most. Just a hunch.
@@tundrance Also, I like how your response to me conclusively proving that a highly significant number of rapists are women is not to acknowledge that this should therefore be an issue that is everybody's responsibility to address, heavens to Betsy no, your response is to double down on the idea that it is men's and *_only men's_* responsibility because... it's allegedly only other men who make it more difficult for male rape victims to be taken seriously.
That niggling little detail that the vast majority of those who rape men are women is inconsequential, of course.
@@radicaldreamer927 im not reading allat but anyways people like you who argue this shit seem to never bring it up unless you're doing it to silence or put down people who are talking about womens struggles. all of these problems you're describing are a result of the patriarchy; a system that was created BY MEN and upheld BY MEN for centuries. women are much more supportive to male victims than men are. don't be fcking ridiculous.
As a Delhiite, I am so proud of these boys being fellow Delhiites. There's so much evil in our city, especially against girls and women. It makes me feel happy to know that there are boys like them who would stand up for us with us.
while at the same time youtube is deleting all of the videos of the "Lady Dons" a vicious all female street gang from Mumbai who has ties to the Thuggee Cult isn't that where the word "Thug" comes from? yeah!!!!!!! The same white people who you idiots worship with your caste system are the ones responsible for these sex crimes.
This is retarded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I honor you.
Is that some type of sandwich?
As a man who was assaulted sexually, I really appreciate that the victims are gender neutral. I felt included in a way I don't always get to in these conversations and with how powerful this song was, it felt like a pretty bad ass thing to be included in.
That really sucks man.
I'm sorry that happened to you.
I've often wondered how males feel being sorry if left out of the solutions or the conversations. The spot light is definitely on females. We truly need to change that. And also.... thanks for speaking about it. The more other males see it's ok... the more healing can be done. ❤
I’m so sorry about that. Men Vic have a voice too . Anyone who has ever denied that is part of the problem. You matter too❤❤❤
Me too, my friend.
Watched Monkey Man today and got to the scene in the movie and heard the drums and I was like, "Holy shit its Bloodywood!"
Holy crap! I watched this because I saw "Indian Folk Metal" and thought, "this could be entertaining", sort of as a joke. But holy f*ck that was incredible. Damn, the most powerful and meaningful song I've heard in a long time. I will be watching a lot more videos from this band.
Me too
That's exactly what got me!
Same here. This is therapeutic for me as a survivor.
Most of their songs have amazing messages. These guys are phenomenal on so many levels.
I'm not Indian, but I resonate with a lot of these lyrics. I was groped by a man in a mall, in front of my mother, who later denied what had happened to my face. Later in my life I was almost the victim of an attempted rape, by my boyfriend. Victims of rape should no longer be nameless, faceless numbers. We are no longer asking for recognition. We are ordering it.

I wish more men understood this. I dont listen to metal but you might just be the first group i become a fan of. Never stop speaking up through your art❤
Other commenters have spoken at length about the raw power and fury of the metal genre throwing its weight behind such an important message and about the local Indian instrumentation and cultural imagery at play, so I wanna point out something else that popped out at me. I am terribly fond of bilingual wordplay. I can't help but notice that the chorus chant of "De! De! De!" sounds to my English-speaking ears like "Die! Die! Die!", and I am delighted by how flawlessly that misheard lyric matches up with the subject matter of beating sexual predators within an inch of their lives.
Yeah that was awesome! I immediately was trying to sing parts of the song and the beatdown breakdown is so good in Hindi? (it is Hindi right? My ignorance is definilty showing, but I would like to know!).
yess it is hindi!@@Waitwhat469
What does the de de de mean in Hindi?
it means give, and in this context like they say bring the beatdown, they are basically saying give out that beating@@MaoTheMage
@@kpop__whistler7734 Thanks for explaining that ~ I did google translate "de", and it said "give" but I didn't know how accurate that was, or what it meant in context.
This is surprisingly wholesome and uplifting. It's nice to see some positive masculinity in music these days that really speaks to a good cause.
Most positive men don't attract attention to themselves. This is a two-edged sword. We only tend to hear about the repeat, repeat, repeat offenders, which are a very small minority of absolute psychopaths.
While i think most sane people agree sexual violence is terrible, im not sure I would call singing about how badly you want to commit physical violence against them is "positive masculinity". I do understand people who feel the urge to be violent against people who harmed them or someone they know. But seems strange to use as a general message to make your music seem more "badass".
Check out the band Hatebreed!
Well, that's metal for you. Surprisingly wholesome and uplifting, once you get past "they are just screaming".
Reminds me of system.
There was an Indian woman in the comments saying she cried the first time hearing this... it's like my 20th time and I still tear up. Being a near victim of trafficking and later abuse as a child... a freakish Japanese red headed green eyed girl... I was an exotic prize for monsters and blamed my entire life for it. This was in America by the way. So any ignorant people need to realize this happens everywhere. Right in front of your faces. Because you let it happen. Now that I am older and I broke free, nearly dying to free my three sisters who were lucky not to be abducted but in a bad situation also... it feels so... freeing to hear that there are men that actually understand the pain and want to help... you can hear the rage and anger in their voices. You can feel that this is personal from the dancers. I hope that rage will fill you all with courage to rise up when things like this happen. The cycle stops with you.
Power on, sister. ❤ ✊
Power on... We are strong, united we are stronger.
Wonderful you survived sister
Sorry to hear that. We men are monsters, sometimes I wonder why I was not born a Woman instead.
@@Konsciencia1111 I'd trade you if I could. There really isn't anything good about being a woman.

I've come here after I heard about the incident in a hospital in India, I hope justice will come to the victim. I can't believe authorities are protecting someone who killed and raped a sleeping doctor brutally. No woman in that hospital is safe until the one responsible is locked up for life. I hope all the protests will be heard. Thank you guys for making this song, still one of my favorites.
I love how this song bounces between the primal rage of beating up rapists and a call for anyone who’s redeemable to join in and change society for the better. It makes no excuses but brings people together rather than creating division.
Well, he IS talking about division... ;)
@@ArabicPrincessIV Division of what? The halves of a rapist’s skull? I don’t get it.
I don't know if it's really bringing people together to simultaneously blame men for rape, thereby ignoring female rapists and male victims, and then suggest that only men can solve the problem by beating up rapists.
I realize that, in India, they legally don't acknowledge all forms of rape, but I'm from the US.
@@DrachonaTheWolf tbh, this is still a step in the right direction - the overwhelming amount of rapists are men, even if sometimes their victims are also men. Female rapists exist and they're horrible for sure, but most of the world - the West included - lets even male rapists get away; there are extremely powerful men - who each rape hundreds of women; and they were allowed to do so for _decades._ Yes, there are female rapists and they're horrible... but I don't know exactly how many of them have the reach, power and body count that male rapists often have. Currently, male rapists are the biggest threat; they simply aren't the only threat.
They also talked about "change their kind with my mind" but until then, they beat up the rapists.
I mean shit, there are male survivors here in the comment section supporting this song, so you're not even speaking out for some unheard or unseen victims.
@@DrachonaTheWolf Also, with the line "Fuck every man for himself; It's every man for every man and everybody else" like... you could also interpret "man" in the general "mankind" way, where all huMANs look out for each other, which would mean everyone looking out for all survivors.
But you just want to see things in an adversarial light where no one cares about the issues you're talking about, sowing more division instead of helping to solve the problem and be a part of the human collective working to make the world a better place.
Re-evaluate your priorities a little and learn when the fight you're talking about needs to happen; because there are definitely times where the points you're bringing up are good and needed.... but this isn't one of those times. At least not in the way you broached it.
I love everything about this. Kali is creation, destruction, chaos, order, wrath, and compassion. If you liked this song, I highly recommend The Song of Women by The Hu (a Mongolian metal band) that is in a similar theme. Izzy Hale from Halestorm features in one version where she sings the English translation if you're curious 🤟🏻
Blah blah blah
bless be goddess kali 🤘🏼
The deities are so interesting. I need to learn more
Great rec
I thought of the goddess Kali indeed but wasn't sure... Definitely the best choice for this song indeed!
I teared up watching this. I joined my local metal scene in my teens but left when I felt unsafe due to several… unsavory encounters. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to rejoin and view it in a positive light. Thank you guys for channeling your artistry to empower sexual assault survivors
Yeah a lot of creeps unfortunately.
I cried as well, and I also had to leave the metal scene. The last time I went to an under metal show someone put something in my drink and I had to go away as fast as possible and call an Uber. We need to retake our place in metal, metal belongs to us women as well.

Sexual assault is the one act that is truly and in every case unforgivable. There's such a thing as justifiable homicide, there are honorable reasons to steal, and you can beat someone down in defense. There has never once been a justifiable rape.

@@TheNOBODY2810even if she isn't, she is a representation of a man's deepest fears, it's very symbolic
It is such an interesting concept that is probably alien to large parts of the world, but works so well in the context of this song.
was that the blue lady? I'm honestly a bit sad that I'm not getting all the references in this video (yet) because I know that there are more. The only thing I knew is that the blue skin is pretty common with Hindu gods, but it was a lot to keep track of last time I tried to learn about it
Scandinavian here, playlists full of soft voices and melodies - love haunting kind of sad songs - quiet songs like musical poetry. I want my music to say all of the things I feel and have no words for in a pretty and soulful way. Something I can whisper along with and still feel understood.
That being said, I fucking love this song. I don't know the words and the culture is foreign, but the rage - the message. It's in my bones.
++++plus fuck yeah for trigger warnings and being considerate and responsible ❤
@@thespcrewroy8716 People in Sweden should rape less? I would argue people everywhere should rape less. As a victim I get to indulge in selfish thoughts of violence and anger: This piece of absolute art speaks to that (in regards to myself)- and to the mentality of community responsibility to stop a rampant issue of victimizing others.
People holding each other accountable and responsible for stopping problematic/rapist culture.
But I do not condone a government - mine or my neighbor's - to abuse their power against its' citizen - because you cannot treat a symptom of dysfunction with more dysfunctional behavior: You cannot make a person change by making them suffer, and a country cannot abuse their citizen and remain civilized.
That's not what my comment was meant to convey, and I apologize if I gave you some kind of impression by mentioning my roots. I only meant to highlight that I'm foreign to the subtleties and significance of the nuance in the video - and despite that, it still speaks to me in a way I understand and connect with.
I would rather my abusers be treated professionally and humanely (because we have the means to), so that they never abuse, rape, or molest another ever again, than giving in to satisfy my darkest and innermost desires of vengeance.
It's not my call to make, but since you replied with your comment here, I'll make my stance clear.
My monsters were born and bred from my own country's soil: And they're not the only monsters native to my country. We have our own issues with the old preying on the young - with violence, and with rape. We don't need to point outwards because the issue is not something suddenly arriving, it's been here since those who could and would began to take: And that issue is as old as human kind, directly related to how we nurture and treat our kids and each other.
Furthermore, I've been met with more kindness from complete strangers than my own family - my own friends and lovers would continue in ignorant bliss than confront wolves in their midst, or change their own predatory ways.
I wouldn't be so fast to condemn those foreign just because they seem unfamiliar. Your mind is conditioned to seek out what is familiar because you know what to expect and the unknown feels dangerous.
In Scandinavia we have many generations of familial bonding with our neighbors who look and sound and think similar to ourselves - but that doesn't mean that the traumatized asylum-seeking or hopeful immigrating population deserve any less of what we might offer: For would we not be some kind of monsters to prey on them? In a way, that is victimizing them for not being born and raised among us, and that is also monstrous, in my opinion.
It helps to think of all people as human beings, same as you - regardless of skin tone, heritage, or culture. We are people, and all people deserve a space for growth and understanding.
Please, be kind. Immigration politics are unnecessary in this forum. Rape is rape, no matter who does it.

Based on the lyrics and the sound of this song and Gaddaar alone, I ordered the most expensive version of the physical album, the first actual CD I've spent money on in 16 years. And I fully intend to order matching hoodies for myself and my wife before too long. I know you'll probably never see this, but I intend to support the fuck out of you all as much as I can manage.

We just saw Monkey Man and I was thinking to myself how cool it'd be if a Bloodywood song were in the movie. Lo and behold, I heard 2 seconds of this and started rocking out. So happy for you guys.
Considering how India is one of the many third world countries with alarming crime rates against women, this song is EXACTLY what people need to hear. I hope that other countries like mine, Brazil, get to learn from this song for the sake of the ladies
Their actual rate of sexual violence is far lower than Brazils(less than a third) but the hinduphobic western media likes to promote the shit diving slumdog image of India...for dog whistle activists
@@Aspirant24-uy3zp still they havent made marital rape illegal and theres also scandals involving scam marriages and a large ammount of creeps bothering the ladies, so its not that far from Brazil XP

I don't see them advocating for prevention methods or anything like that.
This shit doesn't happen out of nowhere, maybe they could spend their time doing something actually useful??
I opened and watched this video solely because of the image of the dancer portraying Kali when it popped up in my feed. I'm not a metal listener or fan. But I have to say, the message of this great song fits perfectly with the cathartic release that comes from the driving sound, rage, and feel of metal music. And Kali, the goddess of destruction, death, and mother nature is absolutely the perfect symbol for this music genre and especially the topic of this song. Well done, Bloodywood, and thank you for singing about such an important topic.
This song hits hard especially now after the RG KAR Hospital incident. Such violence, such apathy.
Seeing this group of men choose to use their talents, their passion, and their platform to boldly and unapologetically defend women and hold other men accountable.... Is one of the most powerful things I've seen in a damn long time. As a woman, I am moved. I am thankful. I am brought to tears. You guys have some serious talent, and you could've channeled that talent into a song about anything. But you didn't choose just anything. You chose this. Thank you.
It made me cry, too. Please share it. There are so many who need to hear it.
They are always bringing positivity, they even made a song for psychological issues
In prison, crimes against woman are frowned upon and not respected.
Go through their other songs like endurant, Jee Veree, and Yaad. They use their music as their way to shine a light on the things most people choose to turn away from or only talk about. Stay to the end and see they dont just talk but act.
Besides the fact they make phenomenal music this is the reason I will gladly share their songs to any who may have an interest.
@@79thinline Oh yeah, absolutely everything they do is incredible. I just got the CD in, and I have the vinyl on order. I'm hoping they eventually do some concerts in the US. I'd love to go support this wonderful group of humans in person. 💖
I broke up a rape when I was 22 years old. It was crazy. I was a Marine Corps Reservist living in Las Vegas at the time. I pulled a firearm on him. I had to testify in court later on. The memory of that event is tough. But I'm proud that I didn't hesitate in the moment.
And I love this track!!!

"Not all men, Yes all men, Need all men for what we're solving"
Oh shit that's actually really good
No
I think if all of us will feel responsible, only then the problem can be solved. So I agree with that
This band is amazing
@@BrazilianImperialist Actually, yes. Not all men are rapists, but men have a responsibility to protect women and children. That makes us men! Otherwise you are part of the problem. Looking away or ignoring sexual transgression to women is a very bad example for your son or daughter if you decide to become a parent.
Great lyric. Couldn't agree more with it
Based opinion.
Im not even gunna lie my first time hearing this and I am teary eyes wth?! Hard rock and im loving it. Im going to have to hear more!! India is bringing it! Awesome stuff im hype at work yes!!!!!!
I don't think I've ever been brought to tears by a metal band. Not sad tears, but I guess wholesome tears if that's a thing. While I am generally opposed to violence, the potential of righteous violence makes me feel safe and protected. I also love that Kali is represented along side this. 💙 Thank you for this.
yes mate
all of that
Hell yeah, someone who noticed her significance!!
Exactly that!
Kali💙
That's what Kali is, the unbound violence to protect.
I don't think I've ever sobbed while listening to metal before. This isn't my usual cup of tea but I'm really glad I listened to this. I needed to know there were people who care and are willing to defend people like me who have been hurt by this kind of violence. It's so comforting and loud and angry and I love it. Y'all have made a metal fan of me
I would in a split second defend you. I’ve had many of the women in my life hurt by shit “men”. It fucking sucks!
@@DonTheMoron716thank u for existing bro
Welcome to metal~~ the right kinds can explore dark topics and give you the strength to keep going. it's what kept me a metalhead. To me, they're screaming WITH you, not AT you; at least the good shit. DevilDriver - Daybreak is also a really good song.
Not all men are equal, unfortunately. Most of us care for you and will do our best to hold you high and protect you and I'm really sorry we failed you.

If words dont change them, bring the beat down.
What inspiring lyrics, truly.
That’s the truth!
As a child sexual assault survivor, I always felt embraced by the content of other survivors, even though so many people complain about how "violence doesn't solve everything". But I never knew I could feel this good about the support and shout-out from guys who don't apparently know the trauma first-hand (because sexual assault against men is just as real), and yet go all the way out to meet me eye to eye in the rage.
This song has such a special place in my heart, now.
the lady in blue is Kali, the goddess of destruction. its really cool to portray Kali bringing the beatdown on the scum of this earth
Of course violent solves nothing, but whoever defines self-expression and violence, needs to reconsider the definition of self expression and violence.
Thinking or saying the things you angrily desire to do to those who have harmed you, that’s not violence, that’s venting. As long as it doesn’t exceed that and it’s not repetitive for years on end, meaning you’re not basically wallowing into the emotion and just expressing oneself like they are here, which I expect also you’re probably in the good so don’t worry, but anyways yeah I’m just describing and further validating that there’s nothing wrong here, and this does not go in the category of violence, rather self expression, which is important. Your feelings are hurt, and they need to be heard. It’s about time that we take away the stigma of expressing oneself in whatever means necessary as long as it’s not harming anyone. You don’t have to be nice and express yourself, that’s hindering. If you have to think about social norms while self expressing, then that’s sad. I wish you much healing, and much love and hugs 💕🤗
This is why I related with Korn so much
Violence may or may not solve nothing but people sure treat you differently when they know violence is on the table.
All pedophiles deserve death
this song has become so relevant to the current situation in india.
be safe brothers, sisters and fathers and mothers in kolkata.
Seeing men acknowledge the constant fear of sexual violence that women face is so, so valuable. And to not only acknowledge, but to comment on it, to offer solutions (change men, change patriarchal and sexist socities), and to offer protection as well (if you're an abuser, we smash your head in). This would be an amazing message and song coming from any country, but hearing this from an indian band, from indian men, makes it even more special. Thank you.
Women and children*
I'm curious, can you tell why does hearing this from an Indian band with Indian men makes it even more special? Thank you.
@@matchbox1275EDITED; I would recommend looking up statistics to do with violence against women, SA etc in India.
Honor and dowry killings are an issue as well, and female infanticide. Bare in mind this is NOT all areas of India, as someone else in the comments pointed out many major cities are very safe, but as in any country there's areas that aren't.
Also bare in mind India as a whole has lovely people, with rich cultures and an amazing array of languages, and amazing food.
It was brought to my attention this could be seen as unintentionally pushing the stereotype that Indian men are rapists, which is absolutely not my intention, hence I am bringing it up to ensure clarity
Big part of the problem is the ridiculous "us against them" that exist between genders and it really doesn't make sense. Men need to start seing sexual assault on women as sexual assault on their own, it's not the women's problem, it's our problem. Women are not other people, they are our people, an attack on women is an attack on everybody.
I just hope you know that the vast majority of men feel the same way this band does. Rapists are sub-human, worth less than the dirt beneath our feet, and can only live in fear of being found out by the rest of us.
This is a metal song to beat this year, worldwide!

Hope you find healing
as someone who's also dealt with way too much awful shit, i also highly recommend a band called Citizen Soldier. All their music is about mental health stuff, and i relate SO HARD to everything they sing. if you find peace in music that has strong emotions, i think you might like them
This coming from one of the countries that needs it the most is beautiful. I get emotional every time I listen to this. I was almost r worded when I was 17 by someone in his 50's. My friend that came to me that day will always hold a special place in my heart. She genuinely saved me. I still struggle from it but I know it could have been SO much worse.
Any other victims find themselves in tears by the end? Never even heard of this group before the video but the thought of saying thank you to them for the message left me crying. This is so validating. Thank you Bloodywood for this gift. Thank you for believing us and speaking out it such a huge way.
Impressive considering that India has a huge misogyny problem. I'm not Indian, but these are my brothers in arms. This song is how I feel... Total frisson

I like that the lead dancer painted herself in dark blue, which imply that she portrays herself as Kali, the goddess of destruction and power.
While various mythologies tend to associate goddess with beauty, love, motherhood, or fertility, Kali from Hindu mythology is associated with time, change, power, creation, and destruction. She is the illustration of Shakti and she destroys the evil in order to protect the innocent.
In a song about fighting sexual violence and protecting sexual assault victims, portraying Kali as an icon is very suiting, in my opinion.
Kali Maa is also a Mother Goddess. In some myths She is born from Durga's rage at Her children being harmed. Kali is sometimes viewed as an incarnation of the collective protective fury of mothers. She is also a primal Goddess, governing time, creation, destruction, revenge, and protection. Sometimes She is viewed as the Mother of mothers.
I love Her. I love this video, too.
I was hoping that she was going to have some killer lines, but her blue skin was good enough, almost looked like her natural skin!
Kali is, obviously, the Destroyer of Demons.
Is this not specifically Kali-Ma, in Her aspect of Destruction? But yeah...it works well for imagery.
I mean, most of the well known polytheistic religions and mythologies have war/death/destruction/hunt/etc goddesses.
Sekhmet, Menhit, Pakhet, Athena, Artemis, Diana, Minerva, Nerio, Vacuna, Bellona, Frigga, Dis, Gna, Amatarasu, on and on and on...
...indeed, it's more rare for a major polytheistic religion/mythology to NOT have a female warrior deity of some sort.
I've always knew that talking against rape is a good and a brave act. But I never knew that it can be this badass.
Speaking out and fighting against rape is ALWAYS badass.
Wow. So brave to condemn a crime that 99.99% of people already condemn. Murder? Bad. Please praise me now.

I don't get people who think that violence like this is justified.
Guess nobody in this comment section has seen I saw the devil.
As a SA survivor in the Indian community, I sincerely thank you for writing this song. I've
been told to be quiet or else the family will fall apart. Protect Indian women.
Edit: you all are so sweet im beyond grateful for the positive feedback. I sincerely hope this message can help other victims feel supported and acknowledged. 💖
@Zach Hogan thank you so much i completely agree, and I'm in a much better place since I've moved out
People who care more about the abusers are abusers themselves. Move out. May you achieve all the happiness and strength in the world❤️ stay strong
@@tamanna4697 thank you so much my friend
That sounds like a bunch of fucks who need to be beaten down and refused at every turn. Bring that "family" DOWN and expose them for the savage demons they are.
Hey you are awesome no matter what, you’ve got that Indian kali fuck you power in you. So yeah fuck the patriarchy.
As a rape survivor, there's a few heads I'd like to wear on a belt, so this embodiment is so so soothing and validating. Mother Kali is to be respected!✊ Y'all are amazing.
💯 yes!!
HELL YES!
exactly
FUCK YES!
Sorry you had to go through what you did, stay strong! 💪
This is the most Metal shit I've seen and heard since a while. Fuckin blown away.
This made me cry, because I’ve never had anyone protect me. I wish there were more men like these.
💚
Where are you from? You must be surrounded by the worst kind of men
@@therealmegabros there are and we are out here and want nothing in return. hopefully you have a great day
I'm sorry. We're going to fix this, so nobody need live in fear again. Well, aside from the abusers: we're coming for them.
Awww my dude. There are, maybe not me but my dad. They are out there
"yes all men" from the mouth of a man. Thank you for having open eyes and awareness!
I get so angry when i see a girl telling all men but i realised it's true No men stand up for women against bad men this is the reason.
@@Womendeservebetter1so no man stand up for women against bad men, and no woman stand up for men against bad women? See the problem here?
@@revimfadli4666 I see women stand up for male victims all the time, men make fun of them, however.
@@fawnieee do you see both men who make fun of them and men who say things like "protect this woman at all cost" to them? If not then there might be a problem
@@revimfadli4666the fact that you think women harm men at the same rate is literally the first issue lmaoo
Every survivor got a little Kali inside themself dancing to your beat! Thank you for that. 🙏
thank you... i'm a survivor too. it feels better to hear this.
@@friendswiththeghostswhat's kali.irs all myth it is poisonous demonic demon
Speak for yourself.
I never thought this song will apply to the US, but here we are 2024. The "your body, my choice" people have a world of pain coming for them as it is deserved.
Yeah it's insane that people wanted a rapist president in the 'greatest country on earth' in fucking 2024.
💯💯💯💯💯💯
One day we may change their kind with our minds.
But until then....
I think you misunderstood that statement
After a late night of blissfully falling down the rabbit hole, I am completely in love with y'all as a band. It's incredible. As a middle aged white American lady who has only a mild interest in metal, y'all have officially blown my mind and become my new favorite. Thank you from the bottom of my very soul for this song. For all women. For all men. This needs to be heard. And how can you not hear such passion?!
I love how you included men in your comment too, love you!!!!! Live a safe and long life darling.
Hear hear
I think we need to start a middle aged white american lady Bloodywood fan group. (My 6 year old is head banging behind me as I listen to this. He only likes "epic" music, so this song has his official approval, too.)
Took the words right outta my mouth
I love how Bloodywood has broken most stereotypes of metal bands being run by hyper masculine/ misogynist men, especially in our country where metal music is rare to see. I wish a bright future ahead for them, into mainstream culture and the popularity that they deserve
Masculine, sure, but where tf did you get misogynist from metal bands? What the hell were you listening to before?
@@ShadeScarecrowthere's a whole genre called Porno grind that should answer your question
@@ShadeScarecrowif you don't think the metal scene is incredibly misogynist you're either very young or very obtuse.
@@ShadeScarecrow off topic but nice profile picture
@@silvsilvsilvgeneralizations like that are harmful.
There's plenty of good in metal.
Gojira is the first that comes to mind. They're strong advocates for environmental protection.
Just...no. It's a good genre just like all other music
Part of my recovery from the abuse and assaults I experienced is to listen to metal, because I feel like it gives voice to all the rage I feel as a result. Thank you guys for this song, I can feel it in my heart and it's amazing
This hits even harder with whats going on right now.
man. like half of the time I listen to this, I start crying. like as a survivor of repeat sexual abuse and assault it means so much. it's not treated as a simple thing to not due just because it's bad, it's because it ruins people's lives and it's a disgusting thing to do that affects *real people.* idk so many messages about anti rape and the like feels so flat but this feels so genuine. like they *actually* care and it's not parroting it from other people. this song makes me feel believed and protected in a weird way I can't explain
Metalheads continuing to be some of the most excellent human beings. Love the message, love the music. Mad respect to both vocalists for pulling off some of the most difficult vocal styling in such tight layering.
"Survived" long ago, but that suffocating darkness lingers. Found this song when something positive was needed.
Thank you!
I like how it sounds like “Die die die” and perfectly fits into the lyric of the song
This makes me so proud to be an Indian, also I absolutely love how you guys are fearless to write about rather important current affairs, you guys will always have a fan base, I can grant you that.
I'm not Indian, but this makes me proud to share the planet with people like you! 🤘
Exactly brother. Metal will prevail.🖤🖤
No Flag 1 world
For sure!! They have at least 3 fans in WV, USA. We’re always bumping them around town
Up in Albert Canada here
Absolutely amazing.
damn, never thought i’d see you here
One of my favourite creators of all time appreciates one of my favourite bands of all time haha
WTF ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?! LMAO
Dude so unexpected what a surprise
Btw love your videos so amazing work
Yooooo IGP!!!
WISH ICY WAS HERE TOO
The way the representation of Kali just stares into your soul at 3:31 gives me chills every time.
I think she's very pretty :] Problem is the theme of the video and I'm kind of afraid to even point that out
@@teknomax7883 She's absolutely stunning and there's only beauty in affirming this.
@@teknomax7883 she is a fierce beauty, just like Kali's power.
I just developed a fetish for blue skinned Indian women now.
Is Kali a godess? Whitey here lol pls dont hate me
The dude doing the screaming in this band is so friggin' good! Who am I kidding this entire band is amazing.
When he said, "fuck every man for himself. It's every man for every person" I started tearing up. I felt the warrior in him speak to mine. We must stand for the weak. The powers that be want us to be callous so they can continue to destroy us. Don't let them!
Truth.
Exactly the same here. You're not alone.
@@kahlesstakethewheel It's great to know there's still goodness in people
11 years ago a stranger broke into my home and raped me... very violently. The attack lasted around 4 hours. He beat me and choked me and threatened my life. I am lucky to be alive. I didn't have the strength to turn him in. I stayed home from work and healed for a few days and then just went on as if nothing happened. I finally found the strength to talk about it in 2017. I tell my story now in hopes that other individuals going through a similar situation know they are not alone. I felt alone in my secret for so long. If you have experienced sexual violence in your life and you're afraid to talk, please break your silence. Don't let the monster take anything else from you. I spent years in my own personal hell. It wasn't necessary. I now know everyone still loved me and respected me despite what had happened. And that beast no longer has power over me. If you are struggling with your own story, know that I love you. This song shows that there are people half way around the world from me that would've protected me. There are so many good men out there. Thank you Bloodywood for making this song. It gives me hope for my daughter's future.
So sorry this happened with you. Hope you're doing good now.
Thank you for your testimony. I send you healing love. We're reaching critical mass as the Earth herself is being destroyed as women everywhere are being destroyed. Kali Ma will show us the way. Mother of Destruction.
You're strong! ❤
You're a great woman
That's so horrible I'm so sorry
??? Wtf, this language was made for metal-- ABSOLUTELY yes!!!! Living for the chorus, love the message and how endulgent it is in just not standing for shit!!!!
This is my first time hearing Indian metal. ❤❤❤❤ added to my Playlist
GATG - Girish and the Chronicles (if you want some "Classic" new rock) band.
