Mongolian Metal?! FIRST TIME hearing the HU! WARRP Reacts to Wolf Totem

[@timothykellison37]

Also each member of the main part of the band are considered national treasures as they are masters of their instruments both the throat singing and the playable instruments.

[@chriso6719]

4 main members, and 4 touring members, the touring members play the guitar ,bass, drums, and percussion. And ,yes, they are awesome live. Saw them open for Halestorm a couple years ago. The 2 string being played with a bow is called a Morin Khuur, or horsehead fiddle. The 3 string being played like a guitar, the arrow shaped one, is a Tovshuur. Jaya (throat singer) also plays a Tumur Hhuur (jaw harp) and a Tsuur (end blown flute). This song is one of several that were redone with new English lyrics and guest singers. This one with Jacoby Shaddix(Papa Roach) is awesome too. Song of Women with Lzzy Hale(Halestorm), This is Mongol with Wm Duvall (Alice In Chains), Yuve Yuve Yu with Danny Case (From Ashes to New), and Black Thunder with Serj Tankian(System of a Down) and DL from Bad Wolves.

I discovered the HU band some years ago and they're terrific, alone or with guest singers. You can find the English translation online. The theme is basically what we will do if you attack us. Their instruments are traditional Mongolian, the horse head fiddle is the most obvious one. If you want to find their song about Ghengis Khan you will see it as Chinggis Khan, which is how it should be pronounced.

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Great reaction yall, so glad yall enjoyed it. The version with Jacoby Shaddix has a different energy and the one with Lzzy Hale, song of Women, is fabulous.

[@timothykellison37]

They have also done several collaborations with known singers like Jacoby Shadax and Lizzy hale putting English lyrics to their songs

[@brigittesaunders3943]

There are English captions for this music. It is a 2000yr(?) old war song.

[@CynicalTesuji]

So glad you checked these guys out! Next time you watch one of their videos, be sure to turn on the close captions so you can experience the lyrics as well! It's quite worth it.

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Will do!

[@texasdimashdear]

Please React to Song of Women featuring Lizzy Hale and Mother Nature featuring LP, both are fantastic songs.

[@timothykellison37]

They need to react to Song of a women for mothers day

[@deniseduncan7363]

This group is amazing!!! This should be a great ride....

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Hope so!

[@larrywright3132]

I finally decided to listen to The Hu, and I am so glad I did! Thanks for your reactions, guys

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Our pleasure!

[@SlapshotsRoadhouse]

This song is on my pre hockey game Playlist.

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Nice!

[@hayley_council]

I found the first video they dropped, about 2 days after they did.. that was back 5 years ago. I have been hooked ever since. If you ever get the chance to go to their concert. I recommend. You will need your armor afterwards because damn. I suggest going back and watching again with CC on.. they translate and you think it was primal now.. Great job guys.

[@cherylschroeder3344]

First time seeing and hearing this group. Loved the instrumentals in this! Thanks guys😊

[@xenbe3150]

They did soundtracks in starwars video game, covered for few Metallica songs, opening for Iron Maiden, collaborated with Jacoby shadoxx pappa roach among other

[@timothykellison37]

I love that the Band uses they symbology of Of motorcycles for horses as the Mongolian people were Horse raiders it is why their instruments have horse and Bow & Arrow Iconography as these were two important items to the Mongolian people

[@hiawatha.g]

I saw them live in my hometown. By the end of the concert, the city was burning, our livestock were gone, and our daughters were pregnant.

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Bwahahahahahahaha!!!

[@SylviaCovington-g1i]

Love this band! Thanks for reacting! You should check out some of the "live" performances. There are several on KZbin.

[@neocelestia]

Amazing performance and equally awesome reaction!! Only thing is it took me damn near 10 minutes to get to the actual song cause I kept rewinding and rewatching you goofballs with your fist typing hilarity! xD Y'all really need to put out a behind the scenes blooper reel on Patreon. This stuff is gold!!! XD Anyhoo, awesome video! Cheers guys!

[@timothykellison37]

they use several traditional Mongolian instruments the two string instrument is a horse head Fiddle the bow and arrow is called a Tovshuur

[@redroadbeadgirl9888]

I am SO happy you guys reacted to the Hu!! They’ve been a favorite of mine since they first appeared on KZbin. If you want to see an EPIC video, check out “The Great Chinggis Khaan”. I always love your reactions.❤

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Thank you so much!

[@snowwhite5865]

Epic!!! ❤❤❤

[@IamGrootOG]

Howdy boys!!! Been awhile since we have hung out! Love this song! I usually visit your Discord and saw y'all dropped this. ❤🎉

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Welcome back!

[@Rose_FallGaming]

Those are apparently the actual instruments that the mongol soldiers used in camp for there relaxation

[@hiawatha.g]

The Hu are Mongolia’s biggest cultural export. They were founded in 2016 in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, by four classically trained musicians. They combine traditional Mongolian chanting, throat singing and instruments with modern electric bass and guitar, to create something that is both metal and oddly hypnotizing. Their first videos posted on youtube in 2018 went globally viral, and today their videos collectively have almost 100x as many views as the entire population of Mongolia. They have done several international tours in both Europe and North America. Much of their music is about Mongolian history, traditions and culture. They sing about respecting their ancestors while also being modern. “Yuve Yuve Yu” is about people who mindlessly boast about their glorious past without doing anything to achieve greatness today. Personnel: Galbadrakh "Gala" Tsendbaatar - morin khuur (traditional horsehead fiddle); throat singing Nyamjantsan "Jaya" Galsanjamts - tumur hhuur (flute) tsuur (jew’s harp); throat singing Enkhsaikhan "Enkush" Batjargal - morin khuur; throat singing Temuulen "Temka" Naranbaatar - tovshuur (Mongolian lute); backing vocals They are joined by four additional musicians for live tours. Here are some of their most popular videos: “Wolf Totem” kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH6blXZ9ftJpr8U “Yuve Yuve Yu” (How strange, how strange) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGXbi4ioZad4nKc “The Great Chinggis Khaan” kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnWUmHeJltRkm6M “Shoog Shoog” kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqjVZYaGgJaSirs They were commissioned to write a theme song for the Star Wars Video Game franchise, and even wrote an alien language for it: “Sugaan Essena” kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXu9l3ieaKqWn7c They have also done some epic covers of Metallica. Here are two: “Through the Never” kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqeuqoWabZZqodE “Sad But True” kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6HbcpKQrayLla8 And finally, a collaboration with the great Lzzy Hale of Halestorm: “Song of Women” kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5WxYohvg9uof8U Clip from one of their recent tours, when I saw them live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYWki5-Bj56Mppo

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

That's a lot of good info! Thank you!

[@billholder1330]

Great list thanks - but you need to add their latest collaboration, "Mother Nature" featuring LP - as good as anything they've ever done - soul-searingly beautiful!!

[@hiawatha.g]

@@billholder1330 Thanks!

[@deniseduncan7363]

Lololol, you might need to put the parental warning on the reaction videos too. 😂😂😂😂

[@glennjanot8128]

Just as a tip, if you're trying to find a specific thing in the video, you can use the left and right keys on your keyboard to move the video 5 seconds back or forwards. No need to use the mouse :)

[@garyrobb5341]

At about 8:30, “If you come with evil intentions we’ll give you a fight.” Here’s some stuff I read. Mongolia has been invaded but never conquered. It’s the most sparsely populated country. 30% of the people are nomadic. The president of Mongolia is one of the bikers. Genghis Kahn and the Mongols took over more contiguous territory than anyone ever. If you joined them their reputation protected you. If not, you died.

[@zeejay4183]

[@boldda7733]

[@marta150]

I saw them live last year Very good. Intense. I recommend Mother Nature and Sad but True (I like better than the Metalica version) , two very very different pieces.

[@maxhames499]

These come with subtitles.

[@joenewman6494]

Genghis Khan son wrote this it’s a battle chant.

[@Rose_FallGaming]

also picture this bring sung at you while you tried to sleep while the mongols are besieging you're city

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

I'll pass on the siege, thank you. LOL

[@mojobag01]

Did Ogre put his knickers on back to front?

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Yes

[@carolynlittle6080]

There are subtitles for this song, why are they not on ?

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

So, because we are in 4 different locations we are upstreaming and downstreaming. It's a logistical nightmare. Ogre downloads the videos to his PC so as to eliminate some of those issues. The downloads don't come with CCs, unfortunately. At the time, he did not realize that it would be important. As so many have pointed out for this video, it would have helped. Because of that, we are choosing fewer songs that need CC. Those that do absolutely need it require a re-rendering process where Ogre has to manually transcribe the english lyrics to the download. It's quite time consuming but we are endeavoring to do it so that we can put out a better product.

[@tumenodnuud4101]

turn on the subtitles jesus christ!

[@glassontherocks]

Genghis Khan would have ridden with these guys if he was living today.

[@shelleeroe7305]

Hahaha who knew I was psychic? Hahaha this was the one I was going to suggest too. The bird sound is them too as far as I know. I think that the 2 stringed instrument is Chinese in origin, or is related to a Chinese instrument with 2 strings. I find it so cool that you can hear the throat singing when he’s also saying the words. There was a group that was on America’s got talent who did throat singing with Zombie by cranberries. That was cool too, if you ever get the chance to look at them.

[@Bagiub]

Morin khuur has nothing to do with any Chinese instrument. Please check before writing.

[@shelleeroe7305]

@@Bagiub I appreciate the info.

[@carolynlittle6080]

You cut off the beginning of this song, it isn’t that long ? 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠🧐🧐🧐

based on the youtube link that we used from their page to download the video, this is complete.
