My latest choice brings with it an exotic twist, as the Indian bhangra metallers take us a trip to their native city to celebrate both the signing of a new record deal and the announcement of new tour dates for next Spring:

[It] is our love letter to New Delhi, the city that raised us, where we grew up dreaming of doing exactly what we are now. It’s a city of vibrant chaos, filled with love yet quick to set you straight if you overstep. It’s not just a city, it’s a game of chess.

Bloodywood’s ‘Return Of The Singh’ tour kicks off in Denmark at the end of February and will bring them to the Über Kingdom in March:
