Bloodywood Shares Their “Raj Against The Machine” Tour Documentary


Global Heavy Metal and World Music sensations Bloodywood has shared their new tour documentary film, Raj Against The Machine. Known for pioneering a sound that seamlessly fuses Indian folk instruments with metal to devastating effect, the band has been gaining millions of fans and global acclaim while on their 2019 Raj Against The Machine, which included an appearance at Wacken Open Air. The film follows the band on their barnstorming tour of Europe and UK. Watch it now!

 

Bloodywood further documented the tour through footage shot across a GoPro strapped to guitarist/flautist Karan Katiyar’s chest, frenzied mobile phone footage shot by the audience and the band themselves, as well as world class footage shot at Wacken Open Air.

 

The documentary tells the story of how the band formed and their surreal Raj against the Machine tour. After an action-packed opening sequence that captures the essence of the film within the span of a minute and a half, you witness the birth of Punjabi/dhol metal, its fusion with lyrically focused rap music, the natural progression into original compositions from covers and the solidification of a musical agenda that’s hell bent on creating a positive impact on the planet.

 

After receiving an invitation to perform at the Mecca of heavy metal: The Wacken Open Air, the band sets out to answer a burning question: can an Indian folk metal band, an online sensation that’s never performed live before cut it on the biggest stage of them all? You have to see it to believe it.
