In 1991, I was a delegate at an international architectural conference in Piestany, Slovakia. There were two Mongolian architects there who throat-sang unaccompanied for us one evening in a cellar bar. It was one of the most profound musical occasions I've ever experienced. The Hu is a wee reminder of it.

That sounds like an awesome time; do you have any other cool/neat experiences. Also do you have any random or architectural advice you would like to give?

7:23 the 2 “stringed” instrument is the Morin Khuur (Horsehead Fiddle), traditionally the 2 “strings” are made from the tail hairs of the Player’s own horse, the “Male” (thicker) string has 150 hairs, the “Female” (thinner) string has 130 hairs. I read that the sign of a Master Morin Khuur player is they can mimic the whinny/neigh of a horse and Falcon cries with the instrument. The 3 stringed instrument that looks like a guitar is a Tovshuur (Mongolian Lute), and is customized to resemble a Mongolian bow & arrow.

Next one "Yuve Yuve Yu", absolutely fantastic

Throat singing is singing 2 notes at once. It doesn't require vocal fry. Totally unique and renowned the world over.

The motorcycles are iron horses. SYMBOLIC. Amazing music. All members are master musicians. They are throat singing which is different from metal vocal fry. This song is about overcoming your enemies. Mongol warriors.

I found them when this song came out, because the almighty algorithm decided i wanted to hear it It was right, and ive been listening since

I like how their instruments look like they could be used as weapons

Wolf Totem is a modernized version of a 600 year old Mongolian poem.Which might be an older Mongolian war chant.

I gotta stop watching reactions to this video…… Every time I do, once the video ends…… my house ends up on fire, horses stampede through my backyard, my chinese neighbor adds to his wall, and all the women on the block wind up pregnant 🫣

Yuve Yuve Yu and their cover of Metallica's Sad But True are great.

Don't forget Song of Women w/ Lzzy Hale

Hi from Australia, I was lucky enough to have seen them live twice. They are so cool. I have two tshirts of the The HU Band.

the descendants of Chinggis Khan, and, for those of us who have some Native American heritage, very distant cousins......

"Suggaan Essena". You get to see and hear the whole band.

The instruments are: Morin Khuur (морин хуур) - horse headed fiddle Tovshuur (товшуур) - three sting lute I like their Mongolian versions of their songs and covers I say that as they have worked with American singers and I think it loses something. Yuve Yuve Yu - is great and definitely has a more western rock vibe to it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qGisvLerYKWrlqg.html They did a cover in Mongolian of Metallica Sad But True kzread.info/dash/bejne/g6Sso8GTqKq-j7A.html They played Hellfest in France in 2023 and ARTE the Franco-German arts channel covered their concert and it is on KZread: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqCa3LOafs-5qNI.html Enjoy!

The Hu are absolutely amazing. Yuve Yuve Yu is incredible. I stumbled upon them I think close to when this song it came out and it's been one of the better choices I've made in my life

This song was recommended to me by my friend who loves to listen to rock. I've loved it ever since. I definitely understand the words, I even sing along when I listen to it. I can add from myself - really powerful guys!!!

Is not just fry because traditional throat singers can engage at times 2 tones simultaneously

Sugaan Essena / Black Thunder, This is Mongol, the Great Chinggis Khan, Song of Women (ft Lzzy Hale)... heck it, listen to everything they've made, you will not regret it

Ok guys, you found The Hu Band" finally. They did some songs together (feat.) with other Artists, f. i. Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach) doing this song 'Wolf Totem', with Lzzy Hale (Halestorm) doing 'Song of women' or feat. LP with 'Mother Nature". All these songs and much more are absolute burner!

I found out about them when this video first came out. Then I bought their CD and took my youngest to see them as his first concert. We both love their music!

the guitar is call a Tovshuur and the 2 stringed instrument is called Morin Khuur, or horsehead fiddle

Fun fact The Hu opened for your favorites Babymetal for part of BM's 2019 US tour. Another fun fact The Hu did a song for the video game Jedi Fallen Order.

Follow the Hu and love their new take. Just wish the put out more music.

I've seen them twice. Once as the opening act for FFDP and once as the headlining act, both times in Seattle. Excellent live show

Another favourite. Good to see you reviewing this.

"Sad But True" and "Through the Never" were covered by The HU. They opened for Metallica at Jiffy Lube Live a few years back. Crazy Killer Band!

I saw them live in Brighton UK in February 2020……they were AMAZING!!

The Hu!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Your channel came up in my suggested videos. When I saw you are reacting to THE HU I had to watch and subscribe! They are awesome! Bii Biyelgee is worth a listen too. It's a song of celebration.

I'm always struck by (what I think?) is the cultural aspect of the horses being "steel horses" in the video. Their Song of Women with Lzzy Hale for Mothers Day was/is very moving.

I found the Hu Band 3 years ago when Dimash sang a duet with Tengi , a mongolian throat singer. Love this band.🤘🔥🤘 They have lots of heavier stuff but I prefer their ballads and collabs "Song of Women" with Lzzy Hale from Halestorm and "Mother Earth" with LP from the USA. The Morin Khuur is the Horse head fiddle with the protective eye on top to ward away sour notes and evil spirits.😏 Great reaction guys👍 🥰🥰Dimash Dear from Canada🇨🇦

Found them through my best friend. I’ve seen them in person several times. Always a fantastic show!

I saw these guys in concert a while back; they were on tour with 5 Finger Death Punch. They put on a great show and had a lot of personality on stage... plus some of the biggest drums I've seen.

Ty for reaction.❤ From Mongolia

I'm a kind of old lady and I like this music

They do a version of this with Jacoby Shaddix and they have another song they do with Lzzy Hale called song of women that is really good.

On a similar, but different, vein, check out "Altay", which is a collaboration between Ummet Ozcan and Otyken (pronounced "oh-too-ken"). Ummet is a Dutch/Turkish DJ, singer, & producer, who also does quite a bit of throat singing. Otyken (pronounced "oh-too-ken") is a group of indigenous Siberian musicians and singers; they also have a throat singer in the band, who sings in a different style. They both have a bunch of great tracks individually as well.

The 'throat singing' wasn't that obvious in this video. In some videos, these guys can even reach a sort of whistling sound, which is a form of throat singing as well. And yes, this is a sort of Mongolian war cry. I guess you guys didn't notice they mentioned their greatest and one of the most feared leaders in history: Djengis Khan?

Great reaction, guys! As others have mentioned, Yuve Yuve Yu and Song of Women ft Lzzy Hale are worthy of a reaction

Woke up my inner warrior 🔥🔥💪

'We haven't seen any traditional instruments' Guys they're playing them. The 'two string cello' is the morin khuur, the triangular instrument is the tovshuur.

Yuve Yuve Yu...another piece by the Hu.

Throat singing comes in multiple types from different cultures, this type, Tuvan/Mongolian throat singing style called "Kargyraa." The 2 videos that I've seen that explain it, one very recent, are: Brandon Acker - How to Throat Sing like in DUNE! kzread.info/dash/bejne/iXiqyLd6dq63eLQ.html (very recent but maybe not the best, Brandon is much better at guitars and lute) and Chris Liepe (with a clip from Will Ramos) - How to do Throat Singing RIGHT (and why it's so awesome for grit, screams & cleans) kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6CL2rp8pNvOj6g.html is much better and given he is a vocal coach probably much more technical. There is also an Inuit type which is very different, it is, from what I understand, a kind of traditional women's game where 2 women sing at each other kind of like a friendly duel (I'm sure there is more to it than that). Global Affairs Canada - Inuit Throat Singing and Stoney Nakoda Dancing at UNPFII kzread.inforgpVBIJPjGs There are a few Inuit musicians that have used it in modern music, the most well known is probably Tanya Tagaq, TEDx Talks - kzread.info/dash/bejne/lqmh2Luzlti6YNo.html her songs with music are very different, do not follow western/modern music styles (some might say jarring) and the lyrics are politically outspoken (correctly pointing out issues where the Canadian government did some bad shit that wasn't right (as a Canadian I'm mad they did it and embarrassed they have not corrected their actions). If you react to her do not expect many views (musical tastes, modern culture, and the KZread algorithm being what they are), but that doesn't mean her voice should not be heard.

одна из самых честных реакций

The motorcycle group is the Mongols, a Mongolian Bad Ass Motorcycle group. Hells Angels don't mess with these guys, nobody messes with these guys

One guy who reacted to this said he wanted to conquer the neighborhood after watching this. You have to do Yuve Yuve Yu and my favorite Sugaan Essena (obviously) from the Star Wars videogame Jedi: Fallen Order. Here is a video of the vocalist Gala with more throat singing. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lKarxrmiXarZqqg.html

From Mongolia 😅 Thank u guys ❤

THATS FKN SICK

Mongal warriors are the fiercest ever

I highly recommend their video Mother Nature ft. LP, it is very beautiful.

You should check out the Hu cover of Sad but True by Metalica I think you would enjoy it.

Hi mates, realy good one.. 👍 May I suggest "FAUN & ELUVEITIE - GWYDION", german Pagan Folk meets Swiss Folk Metal, truly a masterpiece... Stay safe and greetz from Germany

🔥🔥🔥

This is the sound of what I imagine the Golden Horde of Genghis Khan chanted before they invaded your town

At the beginning, when they we showing the CG stuff, there were some high pitched whistles. That was throat singing too, it's not all low. Batzorig Vannchig is an excellent throat singer but more traditional, not rock at all, but greater range. I love the Hu' I saw them open for Babymetal a couple times and they were terrific.

THROAT SINGING. LUV IT.

The Hu means The People, the Mongolian Nation. The horseman flies the Black Banner of War of Gengis Khan's dreaded armies. His totem was the wolf. When the band sings that they will strike the enemy with the wrath of Heaven, they actually mean the wrath of God. Heaven, known as Tengris in mongolian, is the monotheistic god of several mongolian and turkish populations. The mongolian warrior and his war horse are one, a symbol of both freedom and military prowess. Metal horses replaced real ones, but the ancient battle song is still remembered!

Have you heard no throat singing? There’s interesting stuff on the Steppes, birthplace of Genghis Khan, who put together the largest contiguous empire from China to the Danube. Mathais Duplessy is a French musician who has incorporated throat singing in a few of his songs. Try the song Abaden Dareh for an example of his throat singing. Duplessey has traveled and fuses innumerable instruments and musicians from various countries in his works.

They did a cover of Sad But True

You guys should check out the band "Spirits of Fire" if you havent already.

Disney commisioned music for their Star Wars Game after hearing this…. “Sugan Essena”0

Look closely, every instrument is a weapon

i am new in u channel and i like ur reactions... have u ever react to Nanowar of Steel? if not i recommend Norwegian reaggeton. and Volbeat Warriors call (both actually have a long carriers) as for HU u should check the collaboration with Lzzy from Halestrom " song of women"

Do BLACK THUNDER!!!!! Not the collab with Serj....but the original. Would love to see your reaction to that

Must watch Lizy Hale collaboration.

The 2 stringed instruments are the morin khuurs the guitar is called a tovvshur. You should listen to their cover of sad but true by Metallica. THE HU ARE THE BEST!!! HU HU HU!!

Check out their cover of Metallica's Sad But True. Sugaan Essena is great as well... I have too many favorites 😍

I have been aware of this band (Hu) I don't think it's called (THE HU) I'm probably wrong, but watch their song the song of woman with Lzzy Hale

Try sad but true cover.

you should listen to Mother Nature by the HU with LP

Ulaanbataar,Mongolia has a Harley dealership

Check out Sad but True cover song by the HU

I'd say Suugan Essena would be my suggestion for a second Hu song to react to

Also, read the lyrics

I have 5 different tracks from the hu Love because they are different

The tovshuur (mongolian guitar) shaped like a drawn bow with an arrow.

Listen to Mother Earth featuring LP

I first heard The Hu on a vocal coach reaction channel. I think throat singing is so cool and so far Mongolian throat singing just sounds the most bad ass! especially how they mix it with rock. I could have never imagined their style of music and learned about so many cool instruments because of them. Please react to more! There's a video it'd be cool for you to check out. "The HU Play Their Favorite Riffs on Traditional Mongolian Instruments." kzread.info/dash/bejne/p3WWx6ughrS9ocY.htmlsi=KEWtQiTXareSmhG9 I saw it when I first started listening to them and it's pretty cool. It also includes some short interview and a short live segment of "Wolf Totem"

I told you there's a reason why the Great Wall of China was built...

Fisrt time, horses that heard the melody of the Morin Khuur [Морин хуурын аялгуу сонссон морьд] KZread.

Sons of Genghis MC Mongolian original

Otyken please o

Не шутите с Монголией!

The only thing scarier than Mongol on horseback are Mongol on motorcycles 😅
