It’s been a whirlwind couple of years for New Delhi’s Bloodywood, and guitarist Karan Katiyar knows he’s fortunate to be there. “We played Wacken Open Air in 2019, on our first tour ever,” he says. “Our third show ever was at a festival in Germany. I don’t know how we did it – we had no tour manager and no idea about merch. Half of us had never been abroad!”
Bloodywood have learned a lot since then. They dropped their sophomore album, Nu Delhi, earlier this year, and they’ve been on tour with Babymetal, also guesting on the headline act’s latest album, METAL FORTH.
