Uuhai is a Mongolian folk metal band. That's a hardcore musical genre if I've ever heard one. Their heavy metal songs feature traditional Mongolian throat singing, called khoomei, and their instruments include the morin khuur, or horsehead fiddle. I have yet to find the lyrics to the song "Khar Khulz," much less a translation, so I can't tell if the lyrics are NSFW if you understand Mongolian. Uuhai's tour dates this year are in Germany and France.
Perfectly safe for work - the lyrics are about an a small puppy playing with a butterfly. (Actually I have no idea, but that's how I imagine it...)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a different sound than Hu - the Mongolian heavy metal band I have heard.
ReplyDeleteThe throat singing is pretty neat.
I found the lyrics and had friends in the CIA translate them.
