In August 2006, the self-released EP "Women In The Hole" was issued. One month later, Gu Dao and Bai Shui parted ways again, after which Bloody Woods returned to being a solo project. 2. Bloodywood is an Indian metal band from New Delhi formed in 2016. The band originally began as a parody project, uploading metal covers of pop songs to YouTube. It was founded by Karan Katiyar and Jayant Bhadula, who met after Katiyar had previously been producing parody metal covers of Bollywood songs but had difficulty finding a consistent vocalist. Katiyar later left his job as a corporate lawyer to focus on music full-time, and together with Bhadula formed a two-member project intended initially to rework pop songs in a metal style. In 2017, Bloodywood released a metal cover of Linkin Park’s song "Heavy", which gained online attention. They also released additional covers, including a metal version of the Punjabi song "Tunak Tunak Tun" by Daler Mehndi, and later compiled several releases into "Anti-Pop Vol. 1". In 2018, the band released "Ari Ari", based on the Punjabi folk song "Baari Barsi", featuring rapper Raoul Kerr, who would later become a permanent member of the band. Following increased positive reception, the group shifted focus toward original material incorporating Indian folk music elements. Subsequent releases included "Jee Veerey", a song addressing depression and mental health, and "Endurant", which deals with bullying. In 2019, Bloodywood was announced as a performer at Wacken Open Air. Later that year, they released "Machi Bhasad (Expect a Riot)", which had originally been intended for the Ubisoft game "Beyond Good and Evil 2". Around this period, Raoul Kerr became an official member of the band, and Bloodywood began touring internationally under the "Raj Against the Machine Tour".
