Their song "Yuuve Yuuve Yu" is great too. A higher tempo beat, makes you want to dance. They also did a song for the soundtrack of Star Wars: Fallen Order called "Sugaan Essena" that is a really good one. You can tell why they picked these guys for a scifi game soundtrack, they sound almost otherworldly.

This is when they got NOTICED and went viral. They are totally professional level and have continued to improve in music and their production. They did an OST for one of the biggest Star Wars video games. They have also covered Metallica's song, Sad But True, but The Hu translated the lyrics to Mongolian. The cover has a sound somewhat like Wolf Totem because they kept their traditional instruments in it as well as singing in their own language. Metallica had only the highest praise for the cover these guys made. It's truly an amazing song and then The Hu made a FANTASTIC Music Video for it that tells a different story than the original MV told.

Love this band. There's something that is so primal to their music that just grabs me by the guts. Their first album is good, but man their second album is absolute fire! No sophomore slump for these guys.

Her shocked and confused wonderment at the first play through. That's why music is so special. It speaks to people even if the words are not understood.

Saw a bio about them, most if not all are music/cultural teachers at university in Mongolian capitol. They're phenomenal live!

They are outstanding live. Saw them open for Halestorm last year. One of 3 songs redone with new English lyrics and guest singers. This with Papa Roach's Jacoby Shaddix. Yuve Yuve Yu with Danny Case(From Ashes to New) and Song of Women with Lzzy Hale (Halestorm) Traditional Mongolian instruments combined with standard guitar, bass, and drums. And the rock/metal combined with Mongolian folk. 8 total members, 4 regular and 4 touring. Gala and Enkush - Morin Khuur and throat singing. Jaya- throat singing , Tumur Hhuur (jaw harp), Tsuur (end blown flute) Temka -Tovshuur(3 string played like a guitar) 4 touring members Ono -percussion Jamba - guitar Davaa - bass Odko - drums

are you sure The Hu opened for Halestorm ? i though Halestorm were ending for The Hu instead :p

part of what's especially interesting to me is the ability to switch into it so seamlessly. since kargyraa (the style he's using here) requires a fairly specific tongue position in the back of your mouth (as far as I understand it anyway - there may be multiple methods. that's how I do it), some sounds like /k/ or /t/ are either impossible or require an immense amount of tongue control. to sing actual lyrics and immediately fall back into throat singing AND hit the right note with both the voice and the overtone is extremely impressive. clearly years and years and years of practice there.

I was at their concert in Melbourne Australia best concert I have ever been to

The Hu are amazing, their music really hits a strange, almost "primal" button in the soul that feels like it tethers us all together in a powerful, ancient art. Really, I think throat singing can be beautiful or powerful depending on how it's done, and I really love when others have an appreciation for it. It blows my mind when people think it's ugly or if they mock it, I'm so glad you were just so taken by the song you had to go back entirely and hear the beginning again!

I was working in a mental health facility and struggling to connect with one of the residents with multiple mental health and intellectual disabilities. he was also unable to walk and quite isolated from the other residents. I struggled to find a 'key' to building connection with him and one day as I was walking to his unit, i heard his metal music. I went back and grabbed a lap top and introduced him to the HU and this song. Instant connection between us after that. He became a HU addict.

Been a massive fan of these guys for years and finally got to see them live with Megadeth a few months back. Was one of the best concerts I've been to. Let's not forget that The Hu also created a language for the song they did for the Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order game.

My two year old grandson loves The Hu. He dances to them all day. I have heard them so much that he expects me to do the throat singing on command. I do my best.

You are analyzing the vocals , but I see in your eyes and expressions, you had the same reaction that I had the very first time I heard them. It reaches within you and literally you are enthralled in its magic, I felt almost literally empowered and filled with this energy inside, that's what it did to me, what it made me feel. Lovely seeing someone else's appreciation of it, especially when my friends could not at all appreciate it . BTW I hope you've seen the rest of their videos, they have become one of my favorites to listen to.

The Hu are amazing. This song is off their first album, "The Gereg", which is great. And their second album "Rumble Of Thunder" is even better! "This Is Mongol" and "Black Thunder" have several good live videos on KZread, and usually get a good crowd response. "Shireg Shireg" and "Mother Nature" are two of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard by any artist, and also tend to sound good when performed live.

I too loved this for the sheer originality of the sound. I looked at those bikers bopping away in the backround and thought "O yeah, they're Ghengis Khans home boys ! "

This lights a fire in every man's heart. No matter where you're from. It speaks to a long sleeping part of me.

Saw these guys in concert last year and it was an experience I'll never forget. You'll have goosebumps the whole show, they're just such a powerhouse in their own respect.

seen these guys in concert, they're amazing!

They made me learn how to throat sing. I didn't even know it was a thing till I heard them for the first time!

Wow! That singing with that music was perfect. I prefer to be able to understand the lyrics in a song but the growly vocals in a song called Wolf Totem was perfect. Now I want to hear more!

I saw them live & it was amazing!! I'm friends with the venue manager & he said that has been the only band completely without ego & were very humble & gracious. They asked him if it would be OK when they tour America again, to come be hosted in that venue again. His jaw was dropping His reaction, "HELL YEAH"

The driving beat combined with the Mongol-Tuvan throat singing, is da bomb! It’s so beyond cool.

I seen them live at Buzzfest, Houston, 5/28/22. All day event. Short set. However, you listen with your body, not so much your ears. Lots of energy coming from these amazing gentlemen. True immersion.

I love how concentrated & fascinated your look is!

I was made aware of The Hu about 2 years ago and I've been following them ever since. I got to see them in concert this past summer. They put on quite a show, and it was awesome. I absolutely love The Hu!

Saw them on tour with Five Finger Death Punch and some other bands, they were easily my favorite. Great show, great energy, great drums.

No so many singers bands there are Hu just one of them🎉 I love old Mongolian songs ❤

Fascinating use of modern & traditional instruments and imagery. The rhythmic beat was also quite catchy.

Wow, this group so different, how come I haven't heard off them, I am left wanting more

Primal. Tribal. Hypnotic. Love The Hu!!

That beginning reaction was the absolute best reaction Ive ever seen!! You just didn’t know what to think about that one. That was fantastic!

I adore when traditional voice/ instruments are brought forward into R&R! These guys do it so very well!

This is the best type of reaction. Honest, succinct, and it allows the song to be the star. Thank you. I've been a Hu fan for a few years. I've taken my sons to see them 3 times and we are going again in September. Hu are truly an experience. They are different studio to acoustic to live and it's amazing.

The first time I ever heard The Hu was live at a 5 finger death punch concert and my wife and just looked at each other and said, "Holy shit. These guys are fucking awesome."

Your face probably looked like mine the first time I heard them. I was stunned! Loved your reaction

The Hu have just finished a world tour. There are a lot of videos of their live performances which absolutely fantastic ❤️🖤🇲🇳🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍

Saw The Hu at Tivoli in Brisbane Australia just before the 'pandemic'. Last band to play live in Brisbane for a couple of years thanks to the mandates. They were awesome. Can't wait to see them again.

I saw The Hu at the Download Festival UK 2019, at the time they only had 3 songs on KZread and their album The Gereg had just come out. I was down the front for their set. The band had a major WTF! moment when the crowd of 5000 people in the tent they were playing in started singing along to Yuve Yuve Yu. As this was one of their first gigs outside Mongolia and it was at the major UK festival for rock music.

I had the chance and privilege to seeing them on live in France... It was absolutely amazing. A unic experience, for ever in my mind and soul !!!

Love them.... the lyrics were amazing as well. Can totally see why they were feared in their time. I loved the instrumental parts as well.

There is a concert on KZread that was in Dallas Texas.. Very good sound quality.. worth the listen for sure

The expression of shock when the vocals start :)

I’ve seen them live twice and will see them every time I get the chance!

I saw them LIVE, Blew me away!

I saw these guys LIVE! They opened for Megadeth and Five Finger Death Punch. Fantastic performance by the Hu for sure

The surprise on your face when they started singing was priceless! And then after the inititial shock value subsided, it was enjoyable watching you nodding your head to the captivating drumbeat in a tribal like chanting feel. I did laugh out loud thinking "They got her, she's hooked and now a fan of The Hu!" I know I'm late to the party on this one and I agree to a lot of the other comments before me. Please react to The HU feat Lzzy Hale of Halestorm | Song of Women. One little suggestion, react and release this on Mother's Day 2024, I feel that would be awesome!

Verdaderamente difícil encontrar buena música pero aquí finalmente una gema escondida 🔥🔥🔥🔥

These guys are even more amazing live!! I had the privilege to see them, and they’re so good and it’s obvious they are having the time of their lives! Love that you loved it 😍

love watching classically-trained singers/vocal coaches discover the hu! they really are a delight.

The HU are so amazingly cool!! Nothing like what they’re doing exists in the states!

I worked at a music venue and was asked to work the show because they sold more tickets the day of the show. Had never heard of them, fell in love with them. Have seen them in an outdoor venue since - and that was even better. They are dynamic live. I have not heard a bad song yet.

So primal! So great! What a band. Love them. Tough song for a vocal coach to analyze.

This track is epic on a good sound system, I love listening to it in the car

Check out their new video, Mother Nature with the LP. You can find a listing of The Hu in concert on Live Nation and Ticketmaster. Thanks for sharing your reaction.

Great reaction!! Saw the Hu in a small venue in Pensacola a while back and they were awesome live! Catch them if they come near you!

The timbres of the traditional instruments are so intriguing and fresh. I enjoyed the chanting and the throat singing also. It evokes for me a bygone time before all our electronic amusements, when getting together to make music was a major pastime. Nice reaction, Bethany!

Bethany, loved your reaction to this, I took a dive into this about a year ago, and discovered many styles depending on what country it came from. I kindly suggest a singer, Aryuna Nimaeve from the Buryatia region of Russia (east of Lake Baikal). "Erbed Sookhar", a Buryat folk song form what I gathered. The video is well done. She has done some concerts as well. Have fun!

Saw them recently live ,,,, O M G UTTERLY BLOWN AWAY ,,, they will MAKE HISTORY AT GLASTO ,,,, TRIBAL BRILLIANCE,,,,, seen hundreds of bands ,,, but they are truly INSPIRING!!!!! Watch them at Glasto ,,, BLOW THE STAGE AWAY HU !!!! Xx G

Your face was so expressive. You looked so surprised. Loved your reaction.

Love this band & this song! So glad you did a reaction on it!!

I just figured it out!! I love them because they are so intense. It just draws you in and makes you feel there music. Yes it makes you want to be Mongolian and just join there tribe. 💞

If you get the chance, see them live. They're amazing. There's a droning, hypnotic quality that just gets into your blood at the same time you want to head bang cuz it's still metal AF.

They're also amazing live on stage. I heard them first when they were part of a Star Wars game music. I've loved this music for a few years LOVE FROM ICELAND

I just discovered them on Friday when I was on Tic Tok and this was the first song I ever heard from them. I have been listening to them a lot since I discovered them on Friday. I believe they just started a US Tour or are about start it. I am planning on going to see them live when they are in my city where I reside. I have a band you should check out that does throat singing and they are called NYTT Land. The song you should check out by them is called U-Gra. I have been listening to them for about a year and a half or so.

Mongolian Heavy Metal. Who knew we needed more in out life, eh.

Love the Hu - that throat singing and those traditional instruments with metal works so well.

I absolutely love The Hu. Thank you so much for the reaction and your insights.

I love the look on your face the first 3 minutes, like all the rest of us the first time we heard them

A treat for the future - The Hu ft Lzzy Hale. Don't even need the title. Won't be live but still an amazing performance.

Title should read 'vocal coach stunned into perplexed but fascinated silence for duration of song'

They are insanely good live...I was absolutely spellbound ❤️❤️❤️

Enjoying the channel. I caught them live in Denver this past October. It was an excellent show.

Mongolian Throat Singing is so amazing, rock on!!!! MELODY of Liliac does Mongolian Throat Singing in their song Vertigo, live, she is unbelievable, so is the Hu!!!!

"Song of Women" The HU featuring Lizzy Hale from Halestorm . A beautiful tribute to women/mothers who are revered in Mongolian culture. Lizzy has one of the most powerful women's voices in rock. Then, you'll need to go down the Halestorm rabbit hole. A journey I believe you will truly enjoy!

No youtube tenho me interessado bastante por assuntos da Mongólia e da China. História, filosofia, cultura, visão de mundo. O The Hu vi por acaso no KZread, com a música "Yuve Yuve Yu", uma live acustica creio que numa embaixada ou algo assim. E foi amor a primeira vista. Pensei que fosse somente aquela música mas, quando logo em seguida busquei o canal deles, não tem nenhuma exceção, absolutamente todas as músicas são fortes, envolventes e marcantes demais. E as letras? Das que tinham legenda em inglês, falam do orgulho de ser Mongol - descendentes de Gengis Khan -, do respeito à Natureza, das relações simples no dia a dia. As vozes saídas diretamente da garganta, me remetem ao primitivo essencial do ser humano. Homens de cabelos longos, então, enchem meus olhos. As produções dos vídeos são de excelente qualidade. Tudo no The Hu, para mim, é envolvente. Até a marca. É um chamado a participar. Dá vontade de sair dançando e cantando onde estiver (às vezes me permito essas expressões). Enfim, eu ❤The Hu.

I was lucky enough to see the Hu live a couple of months ago. They are absolutely awesome - if you have the chance to see them live, do it

I stumbled across these guys about a year ago....and I was hooked. like you said, the intensity.

FULL BODY GOOSEBUMPS

What a pure and wise take, you gave to this music. Classy response indeed. Love this video :)

Yes, his harmonics are great! Love listening to this! Your initial reaction was priceless!

"Throat singing" or overtone singing is fascinating to listen to . Experiencing it live is mind blowing , when done right you can feel the sound even without amplification .

I love seeing these voice coaches slowly start moving to the music 😍😅

💚🖤 love your facial expressions when you're really getting into it. haha super cute and fun!

"Look mum! It's a pony!" might have been the scariest thing a child could say 800-ish years ago.

Music to ready a warrior's spirit 💪The Hu are keeping an ancient tradition alive and noticed.

That's how I got hooked exactly how she did it replay replay

Many are members of the Mongolian national symphony, all classicaly trained.

Your reaction at some of these songs are amazing to watch.

Gotta say, love how at the begging the CC....just says foreign as the music starts with the hawk/eagle in the background, lol.

I love your gritty half smile throughout this song it's the initiation process of another vocal coach into the throat singing God's of metal

I love how this song makes it sound like there's 50 people in the band, from all the instruments being played to all the layered vocals giving the impression of more singers.
