The Metal Hunter Reacts: Bloodywood Machi Bhasad (Expect a Riot) [Indian Metal] (This Blew Me Away!) 

Thank you all so much for all the kind words!! I’ve gone ahead and reacted to their new song Dana Dan. Check it out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zCDb4IMXjgA.html

They make ME feel indian and I'm freaking finnish

I am so proud as an Indian that people from other countries are starting to love Indian metal 🤘🤘

Bro that's sick at first I was like hmm indian metal... I love indian pop but didn't think they had vocals for metal .. mind blown. Sick song

"metal is an international language" + "brotherhood or sisterhood of metal" => subscribed. Love finding more open-minded metalheads!

Not a fan of reaction channels/videos but appreciate that you didn't stop the music for unnecessarily and listened attentively from start to finish. You put your drink aside when the main riffs started and even let Karan finish his speech at the end. Nice reaction ✌️

The most indigenous/inovative hard hitting band since sepultura! Amazing!

I've just discovered these guys today and was shocked how nice they managed to mix metal with their Indian folk music. And yes, melodic aggressive choruses???!!! Fuck yeah, I'm buying this shit!!!))))

If anyone's reading this, here are a few more kick-ass Indian bands: Eccentric Pendulum, Bevar Sea, Inner Sanctum, The Down Troddence, Chaos India, Escher's Knot, Scribe, Skyharbour, Zygnema, Bhayanak Maut, Undying Inc. Cheers :)

Im 2yrs late to your video unfortunately, but I just recently saw Bloodywood live in Athens Georgia here in the US. It was a small intimate theater and they blew the roof off. I also had the pleasure of meeting them...very nice and humble guys. I totally understand you being speechless, this song along with the rest of Rakshak are fucking awesome. Glad I found your channel! Cheers!

They are instantly one of the best metal bands EVER! I listen to Bloodywood, Alien Weaponry, The Hu, and Heilung! Primal power is primal power regardless of which culture tries to harness it.

As an Aussie I think this band is absolutely amazing! I have Indian mates that I work with and don't even like this type of music, and now they have this on their playlist. I don't really know if they like it, or it's just country pride, but regardless of it all we all jam out to it at work when it comes up on the Bluetooth

You listened to the song the whole way through and then you immediately compared them to Alien Weaponry (one of my favourite bands). Subscribed.

I LOVE this group!!! Can not say enough about how they're going to improve my music collection. I recently found out that the guy who plays the guitar and flute is also the group's manager as well as the director and producer for their music and videos. An insane talent who brought more insane talent to form this force.

I am Canadian, I JUST found Bloodywood in the last 2 months and I am loving it. Dana Dan is exactly what I would have recommended! Going to watch that reaction now! As a member of the Sisterhood, I've subscribed!

Holy mother f-ing METAL! This song is PURE metal in the most horns-out kind of way! Hell's yeah!

Thank you , Metal Hunter ! I live in Sydney, Sri Lankan Aussie, I just heard this tonight, saw the video of their set at Summer Breeze, and I am totally shaken up ! I have heard heavy metal most of my 65 years and appreciated it, but this band has energized me like no other. This review has earned you a new subscriber. All the best !

Man, I'm a Spaniard but I discovered this band, for my cousins are adopted from India, and I've been keeping that always in mind (some eighteen years ago or so) and my love for and interest on metal (and my cousins' background) led me to Bloodywood's first's releases and they have never ever dissapointed me. (SO sorry for mispellings and such, BTW).

This is the 3rd time I listened to this song today, and the eargasms just keep getting more intense each time I hear it. Very few songs can do this to me and it is phenomenal.

I love these guys so much! We got to see them play at their London gig in 2019, we got to meet them after the show and are the nicest guys ever. Honestly, check out more of them, they are amazing.

I’m not even a big metal fan, and that was incredible!

They give me goosebumps in every song! They're amazing!!!

I actually knew of Bloodywood before, but I LOVE seeing new people experience them...fantastic band :D

The middle break is amazing.. fuckin love the traditional dancers sinking up

That song had some absolute crushing riffs, tiny bit sad not to see a bassist jumping around with the rest of them but can't have everything. Thanks for introducing me to them!

Yeah like you was blown away. Always a new favorite. Into Meshuggah vids, then this. My favorite part was the dancing guys with fans on their heads.

I recommend anyo e who has the chance to see these dudes live, they're are chill af, got to actually have a dirnk with them before the show, then after they hung around to just chill with fans, 10/10 recommend to see them

Hello fellow metalhead from the other side of the earth (basically, sweden here), i agree they are quite something!

Bloodywood from India, The Hu from Mongolia, Ningen Isu from Japan....there are sooo many great Rock and Metal bands around the world, it is amazing

I love how they use traditional flok music instruments ❤❤and those beautiful dreamy Indian desert architecture and scenarios

dude indian metal, these bros go hard. i couldnt agree more.

Very cool, I really dig seeing how Metal is uniquely interpreted in different parts of the world and within various cultures. My first initial impression, approach and vibe -wise, was the album Roots by Sepultura which remains one of my favorite albums of all-time. I'll definitely be looking out for more of their stuff.

I've been on a folk metal binge lately, and these guys are my favorite so far!! No disrespect to the OGs, but the world needs more non-Scandinavian folk metal to drop!!!

Goosebumps..they are so effing good

This band is a great example for the awesomeness of the Internet, most of us would never heard of this guys otherwise. And HOLY HELL would we miss something!

They took a few years to find their sound, but boy did they find their niche ! They have both softer and aggressive songs like this. And they do both amazingly well, the softer songs maybe hit emotions even harder.

Thank you for nice reaction! Bloodywood is amazing not only in their music, but also in their lyrics with important social messages. Please react to their songs Ari, ari, Jee Veerey and Endurant. Greetings from Denmark!

Holy shit it's freaking insane! Unbelievable!

Honestly, this is the BEST introduction to the band. It says everything about them and their style.

Thats what keeps Metal alive. Now and then a band shows up you can not compare with anything . I heard " they sound a bit like Sepultura/ Soulfly/ Ektomorph" But: No, they sound like Bloodywood. They combined the two things I love the most: Metal and India.

Funny how you bring up Alien Weaponry, I found Bloodywood after I found Alien Weaponry just following the algorithm. I'm hooked.

Thanks for the mention buddy. After you do their other songs like Endurant, Jee Veerey and Yaad, try Metal Sitar. Love your video! Edit: Fucking awesome video! Anand iyer.

Their documentary thats up on youtube is such uplifting stuff to watch too! ^_^

This shit slaps hard AF.

I was shocked !!! Great Job from this Band...Hail Metal from Morocco 🇲🇦

Bloodywood ROCK

Extremely nice and humble Sir. Loved your reaction video (no pauses etc) and love and respect all the way from India (as you would imagine :-))

They played at Wacken 2019 and this music live is something else, the vocals are top notch, you must check it. 🍺

I LOVE seeing people see this for the first time. I know I had to watch it four or five times in a row the first time I saw it

Nice reaction, my friend. Just remember, Music has no boundaries / dialects etc... When it comes to Music, there are only two tribes.... Singers n Listeners and of course, you belong to new third tribe (thanx to RU-vid like platform) the reactors. Now that you tasted the Indian Curry, Enjoy that more.... These guys walk the talk. Bloodywood not only sing but also go one step forward. You will know once you watch their videos in full ie., beyond the song. Each of their track touch different subject like Jee Veeray (Depression), Endurant (Bullying) Yaad (Loss of loved ones) etc etc.

This is the first time I feel moved to by an Album in YEARS!!

Just discovered these guys through Two Rocking Grannies. Amazing band. Great messages.

That fucking chorus is so sick.

If you like the fusion of traditional and modern music check out "Senbonzakura" by Wagakki Band. They slap, even though they May not be as heavy as Bloodywood.

great reaction video

I've got tickets for these guys, they're back touring in the UK again soon 🤘

I discovered these guys in march 2020, during the first lockdown. I was literally astonished by the energy and the power unleashed by this band. I liked your video reaction's style. Cheers from Italy

Long time Bloodywood fan here. Thank you. They have many more like this and better.

Ok, I'm in. That was fucking demented. Where do I sign?

@7.40 Glad to see you kinda getting emotional at music you liked , as one wise man said, well i said that , some beautiful music will make you smile then there is no better music then the one which is not sad music but still can make you cry. I saw same kinda comments on Lana del Ray - cinemmon girl, where many people wrote "why am I crying ?"

Ur channel is amazing. Salaam from India

Bloody Wood is my favorite new band!!! Thank you for the reaction video!!!

you need definitely to check out these two songs of Bloodywood : Gaddaar: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7iKjSCTxke8.html and Aaj: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kgvH6tX4Ej0.html

Their music is like their food. Rich!

These guys are amazing! "Ari ari" is a banger too! ✊

These guys should tour, liked the traditional costumes and the instruments they've used, rock on.... From AUSTRALIA....

My first reaction to these guys was MOOOOOSH!!!!

I absolutely loved that song and Bloodlywood work look at "Ari, Ari"

This is brutal fresh stuff

Whoa! That's awesome!

I accidentally stumbled on them while surfing through youtube videos. I heard dana dan and it blew me away. I had to hear more after that, and became an instant fan.

YOU ARE MY NEW CRUSH

Shepherd’s Reign is a super Polynesian/Maori Metal band and the song Aigi is super to review.

Its just awesome

only just discovered this band, fucking awsesome

I found you by watching the Bloodywood Documentary "Raj Against the Machine". Much love!

I absolutely love searching for my favorite genres in whatever language I can just think of there is so much amazing music out there

They're so good. I just got into them, myself. You made a great review! Keep it up, dude.

Wow. Thanks for connecting me. Amazing

Found Bloodywood and you all in the same day! Thank fuck, from Central Coast NSW

I love your reaction, shaking your head like "nope... no way... nope nope nope... fuck yeaaAAH..."

Mate, props for reviewing this. Discovered them a while ago and had a similar reaction; very New Metal but awesome vibe. Love it! Just had to comment as I had the same reaction to the breakdown/rhythm but I'm in the UK and play bodhran, traditional Irish/Celtic drum, where you heard Maori I definitely heard Irish...some rhythms just seem universal! Used to work to work with a bunch of guys from various asian backgrounds, Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi etc, we had a work party with a DJ and live dhol (the bhangra drum in the video) players walking about in the crowd, feckin awesome! Personally, I think non-rapper vocalist is phenomenal. Anyway, off to check out the rest of your channel \m/

I met these dudes at one of their concerts their pretty cool dudes

first time i heard this blew me away. they remind me of rage again't the machine since their themes behind their music are similar.

Doesn’t matter how many times I watch, it always gives me goosebumbs

i just discovered this band and they are so good! I NEED THEM TO TOUR WITH RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE!

I love that the Indian culture has embraced this art form to process and deliver powerful messages. If you hear/see this song from any other lenses, it takes away from the point of the music. Congrats on the song, love it! 🤘🏽👍🏽💪🏽👏🏽❤️🥰

There's beautiful old architecture and a cannon. I feel so much love and sorrow from this.

I had same reaction you did, brother. Really hit me (video too). Subbed!

I must have had the exact same expressions on my face the first time i heard this song. :D They are sooo great.

I discovered this video/song a couple of months ago and it became my new favorite jam for a good long time. But the best part (for me) is the guys with the fans on their heads, jumping up and down. Who are they, what it is the significance of those things. This video is a tour de force.

I grew up when metal ruled the earth. These guys take me back to those days.

If bloodywood doesn't get you moving, nothing will. This is an amazing band that I have been following for years now... Since before the lead singer joined them

Bloodywood Rocks ! Arnold"EARTHRISE"

I did't find that kind of diamond since 2019, I found this song yesterday, thats SICK!

Indian Metal with Hindi. Brilliant! Love it.

The track's great, but your reaction really makes it. I love watching people discover amazing new music.

Bloody good! Love from an Australia indian

I love how you're sold on the song like 10 seconds in. I had pretty much the same reaction the first time I heard the song.

It's always a treat seeing people react to Bloodywood and hearing them for the first time - I discovered these guys when I was in Thailand and haven't regretted a single listen; glad you enjoyed them, mate. :)
