Thrashing to The Hu (Mongolian folk metal)

BTW, I am glad you are enjoying this thread AF. About 25 years ago I heard that Outlaws song Green Grass and High Tides while on a long road trip. I liked it but couldn't find the name of it, and the rest of their music didn't catch my attention. Then you posted it. Now that song is my go to when starting a creative project. So thanks!

You are more than welcome, glad that I was able to make that contribution.

In fact, for those who don't know....

 
Before I moved to another state, I hunted with bows and arrows that I made. For me it's not just liberty that counts, but wildness that's in us. I don't want to be tamed. On another thread someone said we could easily import 1 billion people in this country and still be comfortable. F- that! Sheep can live in cramped spaces. A wolf needs room to roam.

I would have been with the Indian to keep out the mountain man. I would have been with the mountain man to keep out the ranchers. I would have been with the ranchers to keep out the city folk. The globalists want to kill that desire of the wild.

This thread of tribal styled music definitely speaks to that.

Agreed 100%
 
Join, my brother.

We shall vanquish our enemies, quaff ale from elk's horns, and be rewarded as Odin guides us to Valhalla's sacred halls!

I think both of us were born in the wrong century. Or perhaps reincarnated from another. This mewling indecisiveness is killing me. I hold more in common with the American flag wavers in Hong Kong than I do with the flag burners here.

No. Fucking. Shit.

I thought the very same thing this afternoon.
 
Absolutely! Heilung is killing me too. I have more in common with those Mongolians than I do with most Americunts.

People are thirsty for this, they really are.

They sense something very wrong, and want to re-connect with the past, so as to plan a future.

Everything is relative, Here's something that should be taken to heart...

"What the people wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them, and with this as the foremost object ideas of freedom and self-reliance and service to the community were obscured to the point of disappearing. Athens was more and more looked on as a co-operative business, possessed of great wealth, in which all citizens had a right to share... Athens had reached the point of rejecting independence, and the freedom she now wanted was freedom from responsibility. There could be only one result... Responsibility was the price every man must pay for freedom. It was to be had on no other terms"

-- Edith Hamilton in "The Echo of Greece" (1957).

I only wish that I was a 20-30 yr. old with my beliefs. I fear I might not be around for the eventual awakening. Because it will have to happen, The Soviet eventually failed. So to will this Republic. Because there is no Republic anymore. It's only a matter of time. But, I don't know if it will be in our lifetime.
 
Mongolians have come a long way from the days of Genghis Khan.

"If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you." ~ Genghis Khan

"If you're afraid - don't do it, - if you're doing it - don't be afraid!" ~ Genghis Khan

Just got tickets for a Nov. 10th show in Charlotte, N.C. Party of four. Myself, the lovely lady (who's not a heavy metal woman, but likes the native instrumentation), her son that is full HU, and a musician friend that had a tumorous mass the size of a grapefruit removed from his brain pan. Though blind in one eye, and deaf in one ear, and recently divorced because of it, the fucking bitch, he acquiesced to coming. Brow beated him into it, that I did.
And so it will be a Motley Crew I set forth with.
I'll let you know how it turns out...

Yuve Yuve Yu.

Enjoy and give a full report when you return.

What can I say? They rocked it out. Everything I anticipated.

Standing room. Hadn't expected it, but 'sold out.'

There was an opening band. Didn't catch the name. Just two dudes. One on drums vocals, the other on guitar bass. Voacals were in Geddy Lee range and had a Rush, Led Zep, vibe. Pretty damn good for two dudes.

The Hu took the stage. Started with some of their mellower songs. Built it up to 'Yuve, yuve, yu,' 'Wolf Clan,' and then 'Black Thunder.' Came back and did a 20 min' encore of the same last three.
When it comes to folk music there is the sense that it all sounds the same to an certain extent. Bluegrass, likewise. Unless you break it down. Then you can tell the difference. And Mongolian folk/ heavy rock is no different.
If you like the sound you are gonna love it live. High energy, thumpin', chest pumpin', goodness.
I recommend.

^^^ awesome ^^^

Absolutely was. Too crowded for my usual like. "Nut to butts" in military terminology. Beths son Kenny has a bit of PTSD from his service, being in crowds fucks with him, but he didn't feel it at all there. Even though I told him he thought it was a 'Who' cover band up until this evening. Lol. There was no seating. Wasn't the venue for my friend getting over the grapefruit sized tumor in his brain so he bowed out. I'll have to make it up to him.
But, yeah, if you get a chance to see them live, DO IT.

I want a Steppes horse so I can invade the next county.

I'll be off the boat in a couple of days, if they are around the New England area anywhere, I'll go see them.

I may start using this as a reply to every post of cultural rot I see from now on:
