    Oh yeah Bloodywood get that. They’re an all male band. They also have songs about struggling with suicide and living your own truth

    (In Hindi:)
    I am not voiceless, I am endurant
    I m not a stray rock, I am the founding stone of a mountain
    I am not weak, I am forgiving
    Within darkness, I am my own light

    They are the most positive male role models you can imagine, openly talking about personal struggle and about the things they told themself to overcome those struggles.

    And they also think the working class should rise up and redistribute wealth. They’ve used the proceeds from their tours to help homeless animals and pay for counselling for young people. They say if the conditions faced by the poorest in society don’t change, the owning class should expect a riot. “No flag on my bulletproof vest”.
