10 Up & Coming Metal Bands You Need To Hear

10. Bloodywood

Hailing from New Delhi India, Bloodywood are part of a new generation of hard-hitting bands emerging from the huge Asian nation. Alongside other growing names, Bloodywood have shot up the ranks of the underground metal scene in the past 12 months.

With their use of Indian folk instruments and thumping song delivery, it is no surprise to see Bloodywood embarking on such a rapid rise to fame. Bloodywood's unique and distinct sound is founded on the use of these rarely utilised instruments in metal, while also merging traditional metal sounds with other genres such as rap and alternative rock.

They have released a number of exceptional singles, earning themselves spots on the Alcatraz Festival line-up in Belgium, Bloodstock Festival in England and Reload Festival in Germany this coming summer. Singles such as 'Jee Veerey', 'Ari Ari' and the stomping yet fluent sound of 'Endurant' are all perfect representation of what this talented group are capable of.
