    When I saw the title I could not believe my eyes.😅😃🤭
    I never expected you to react to The Hu Band.😂😂
    I have been a big fan for many years. They have toured all over. I love this incredible War Chant.🤘🔥🤘 I also find the tension created by the harmonics and music provides almost as much energy as a cup of Turkish coffee😏😅🤭
    I love almost all thier music but my favorite is their ballad "Mother Earth" where they collab with LP version.
    It feels a bit weird to be listening to a complete breakdown of music that is meant to be "experienced" with your whole body, not listened to with detachment.
    Seems almost wrong somehow.🤔
    That said, I was very grateful for the education and knowledge. This was very interesting. 🤔
    I am a Metal Gal and my first love is Dimash but The Hu is in my top 10.❤

    You seeing and hearing analyzing this primal sounds is quite a exciting journey - thank you for that. My most favorite artist is Dimash, but this kind of music is unbelievable too - I saw the Hu many times. There is a colap with Lzzy Hale its a must - western music overlaying and mixed with the sound of the Hu. The Hu wrote the song and Hale wrote the Lyrics and the western part - stunning. Song of Woman.

    So glad you reacted to them. I never knew I needed heavy metal Mongollian throat singing in my life but I did. I go to see them any time they're withing 300 miles of me. The energy they bring to their live performances is unreal. My favorite song is Yuve Yuve Yu and I am Mongol. They did a beautiful collaboration with Lzzy Hale from Halestorm called Song of Women, the video is very sweet. I've been to hundreds of concerts in my almost 60 years and they are definitely in my top 10 favorite, maybe top 5

    When you get to Samaltau by Dimash from the Tokyo Jazz Festival, you will see another ancient instrument, the kobyz, played by a master musician who plays with him frequently. It makes sounds like animals, wind, hawks and eagles as well as musical notes. It is a shaman's instrument, centuries old and equally eerie. After your mental trip to Mongolia, you can visit the steppes of Kazakhstan.

    I love that you reacted to this! I love throat singing! I find it utterly fascinating and was so lucky to get some lessons in Tuvan throat singing in college so I can get an overtone if I try though I’m definitely not very good. It’s a cool sensation though and it really messes with people who have never heard someone making two different sounds at the same time. I also love folk music. I’m not a metal fan however because of the folk and the throat singing I came across The Hu years ago. I think I’m like you in that I really appreciate their music and it certainly gets the blood pumping but it’s not really something that I would seek to listen to outside of something like preparing for battle (which I hope I never would have to do). It does give you that conflicting emotion of “that’s terrifying, I hope they’re on my side” that is that intimidating impressiveness that you never want to hear from enemies but hope to cultivate in those who defend you. Here in the US there’s this amazing group of bikers who stand guard night and day outside of children’s houses for children who have been abused and are feeling intimidated by their attacker. They will escort the child to school and stand guard outside the school and they will fill the courtroom when the child is there to testify. They realized that if they could provide these hurt children with a defender who was more fearsome than the monster that attacked them they could help the child finally feel safe again and find their own strength and courage. This song suits that group. I have a deep appreciation for both but would not seek it outside of circumstances that I hope to avoid. Well I should say would not seek it for casual listening, your analysis was something that I definitely wanted to see right away and I enjoy sharing the Hu with others simply to experience it. Thanks as always for your analysis! So cool.

    Russia is very close to Asia. And since childhood, even in kindergarten, we studied various cultures with a music teacher through songs and dances of the peoples who were part of our country, in the USSR. Therefore, these sounds do not scare me. They act almost the same as rock) In childhood, we often indulged in imitating this singing. We also tried to talk during this penalty) It's cool, believe me) Tickling sensation in the throat) And at the end, a whistle or squeak resembles how it happens when a log is on fire, before it cracks, it makes exactly the same sound)
    I strongly advise you to listen to this band again. And then listen to how an instrument called a khomus or a vargan is played (from the Old Slavic "varga" - mouth or the Greek "organon" - instrument) - a musical instrument in the form of a tongue freely oscillating in the opening of the frame, set in motion by a finger or pulling a thread).
    After hearing it, you, with your perfect hearing, will understand a lot ..)

    I love watching people who have never see The Hu watch their videos, it reminds me of when I first found them and how impressed I was! Falcons and horses are key parts of Mongolian culture, hence their inclusions in the video, and the falcon screeching at the start. Master musicians (which The Hu most definitely are!) can replicate those noises with their instruments, specifically a morin khuur, but a tovshuur might also be used.
    This song specifically is based on Mongol war chants, and the Mongol Empire was huge, so would have faced people riding elephants. Also, a boy's first hunt is considered auspicious and part of the transition to manhood; Chinggis Khaan (Genghis Khan) took his grandsons Möngke and Kublai hunting and the boys killed a rabbit and an antelope, then were blessed by their grandfather for their successful hunt circa 1224. Möngke Khan became Great Khaan (Khagan) of the Mongol Empire and Kublai became Setsen Khaan and first Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. In short, animal motifs are important to Mongol storytelling, and some of them represent the peoples that were successfully subjugated by Chinggis Khaan and his descendants.

    If you enjoyed analyzing this, I'd love to see your reaction to Song of Women which is a collaboration with The Hu and Lizzy Hale of the rock/metal group Halestorm. She wrote English versus to go with their combined traditional and metal instrumentals and throat singing. It's an absolutely beautiful performance and combines a lot more melodic versus with the folk feel. It's also very emotional too with the empowering message of the song.

    Fascinating! A little scary... great fusion of two very different style. Droning songs are all about the energy and transe inducing repetition. As a musician, I was not attracted to that style. I thought it boring but I remember having to cover a very popular song in that style and being shocked at how fun it was to perform. It sure gets the crowd going. “We will rock you” comes to mind, in a friendlier, less aggressive mood. Raaaaaaaaw! 😉Thank you for exposing us to music of the world. 🤗

    First, I have to say that to really experience this viscerally I recommend seeing them live. It is a powerful experience not to be missed. Second, the bird sounds are indeed falcon sounds. Third, the musicians not only have years of training in traditional music, they have also been trained in classical western-style music. Their instruments are the traditional ones expertly modified to look cooler on stage. The bikers are an actual motorcycle club recruited to appear in the video. They have other songs which are clearly them, but sound completely different.

But the more you get out of your zone, the more something different might immediately resonate. You’ll see.

    It is interesting that although the aesthetics of such music are unusual, it was not this that immediately attracted my attention, but the semantic similarity of "Wolf Totem" to the song "Valhalla calling me". Both songs are appropriate before a big battle. To these songs I would add "Storm" by the folk group Otyken (it is not so militant, but it directly warns that it is better not to go to the East with a war).
    I've never experienced this in music, so I can't be sure, but it seems like some kind of international social psychology phenomenon. Just in case, I looked at the activity of the Sun - it also gives an alarming signal, because it is in a growth phase with a cyclical peak in 2025.

    Yes……throat singing is so very interesting. May I recommend Mathias Duplessey for melding various traditional styles and instruments with western influences. He does throat singing. He’s also has songs from China, the Near East, and the Steppes. Tea Girl and Sanghi Qolom are a couple of my favs.
    TTFN SIR H!!!
    p.s. Mongolian songs try to incorporate nature/animals+birds into the piece. They hunt with raptors and that early sound is very bird of prey calls. You will find horse hoofs as well, and note the horse head on the instruments.

    dude, i've wrote this on a few other reaction channels but you gotta try tuvan throat singing. not because i am tuvan or something, i just like throat singing and ethnic music and they are lots of levels above mongolian ones. they have different tones and more styles and more notes at the same time. of course i love "the hu" too, that's why i am here. cause also i am a metal fan and they are closer to my favorite genre. but huun-huur tu for instance, although much chiller, has an astonishing level of the art of throat singing. if you are interested i'd say to check am out or more recent tuvan bands. anyways, cheers.
    edit: spelling, also an old school guy named kongar-ool ondar (r.i.p.) is great too.

    Hello Sir, thank you for this very different and interesting reaction/analysis (and the Patreon who recommended it)! I came across The HU some years ago, when I became very interested in Mongolian vocals. I think both throat singing and their peculiar string instruments are super cool and I enjoy the primal vibe of the song and it’s particularly nice to have contact with a sample of their cultural background. I hope you won’t be intimidated with the 'battle vibe' of this song to the point of not feeling curious to explore further and discover more music within the metal universe ;)

    Hi, when it comes to this kind of music, have you reviewed Heilung? They position themselves as performers of archaeological music. If you look globally, there is a some similarity with HU, especially in the most famous compositions - Alfadhirhaiti and Krigsgaldr.

    First of all i really like this song. It strikes some primal string in me.. idk.
    But you seem to enjoy orchestral stuff , interesting song stuctures and a great voice with good technice but i havent seen you do any reactions to Nightwish..
    Yes they tecnially are branded as a "symphonic metal band" but not too metal and not all the time..
    I find them really interesting in their musical stucture and usage of interesting instuments. Defenetly not the usual 4/4 to the floor.. (😉if you know you know)
    Please take a listen to the "Ghost Love Score" from the wacken festival 2013.
    You will enjoy it! Promise.

      Nightwish has been recommended to me before a number of times! Unfortunately, I can't react to all the new artist recommendations I get at once; I want to slowly ease into them I do polls for the channel members to decide which new artist to do next (the recent winner was Dan Vasc). Maybe Nightwish will be in a future poll fairly soon 😊
      And if not, I will react to them eventually (the more I receive a recommendation for an artist, the more it catches my eye )

I'd find the Tampere performance, the Wembley performance is still great but in Tampere they are clearly having an absolute blast and it shines through.

    This song sounds to me like a warlike matra, that is supposed to get you in the mood for a fight. Throat singing is somehow strange and yet also fascinating. But I'm not sure I could listen to this type of singing for a longer period of time. This song in particular creates a certain aggressiveness in me. Very unusual to my ears, which are more attuned to melodic, harmonic sounds.

    puh, that´s too much war, battle and destruction for me, the lyrics as well as the music. I think we have enough war going on in the world, so I definitly prefer harmony and peace in music.
    The traditional mongolian overtone music is in general very calming, relaxing and a good choice for a meditation, to feel this connection to the earth and the spiritual realm.
    I find it interesting that their way to hold their fists in the sky seems to be threatening - like it often is - but when Dimash does the same thing it has a total different energy, even if he is wearing traditional "unirorms". It´s that intention of the music - conquer or unify - seeing the world as a place of fighting and struggeling or a place of peace and love...

    They have done a number of collaborations. My favourites are The Woman’s Song, with Lzzy Hale of Halestorm, and Mother Nature, with an incredible performance by LP. (I think you would be much less intimidated by that. 😊)

    Sounds quite minimalistic to me, so I like it. However, that throat singing doesn't sound too beautiful to my ears. It would be interesting to turn this into an orchestral piece featuring a didgeridoo, a contrabassoon and contrabass saxophone.

    I don’t think this si song for war. For me it sounds more like a pack of wolfs showing their strength, their redlines to compete and maybe their loyalty to the pack. And since title is (Wolf) Totem , means something that helps you to connect with this primal instincts. To actively connect with rough, strong part of the Nature. But… I have to admit when I first heard Yuve Yuve Yu I had goosebumps, but I can not connect with other songs.

    • @SirHairless
      @SirHairless  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Haha yes, not literally! I like your interpretation, especially the connection to the primal instincts 🐺
      But when you look at the lyrics, coupled with the fact that some of their lyrics contain old Mongolian war cries (which I will assume pertains to this song), I would say that there are undeniable war-like feelings It's certainly not peaceful (to me...maybe to others it is, and that's the great thing about music - it affects us all differently!)

    I’m sorry, I just broke out laughing when you introduced them as a Mongolian Metal Folk band, it soo doesn’t seem to fit.
    I’m back after getting it together and I’ll continue the intro…
    Avi can throat sing! The song is pretty cool , very similar to Native American music.
    I Love the beat! I think it’s sorta unusual, but I am not Mongolian.
    It is interesting checking out different cultures music. It Does sound intimidating.
    It’s very tribal. It’s not going on my playlist however.
