Great stuff, thanks for the linkys but I wouldn’t really call it rock.
Not the Love Will Tear Us Apart cover or the live ensemble one, but Coming Buddha rocks out with a sock on its cock…
They’re different. I like it. Two of their videos are linked in the article.

Thanks. I reported it for a merge.
If you attack as a tiger we will transform into a blue lion! Suck on that, tigers.
Yeah, skip the subtitles.
They were never the same after Keith Moon died.

Merged threads.
My exposure to Mongolian Folk Metal has been the following track that Pandora played for my on my station that has a mix of all sorts of things that I’m into. Tenggar Calvary’s “The Expedition”.
Fascinating and more than a little scary.
Bumping this thread. Somehow I missed it on the first pass, and came here looking after my brother recently turned me on to these guys. For anyone interested, they released a complete album last month, and there are now more videos available on YouTube. I particularly like Song of Women.
It’s rare anymore for me to find new music that I like, so I’m happy when something I like this comes along. These guys are really good.
OMG! I am not the only Hu fan here? This is why I love the Dope!!!
We wont be fooled again. 
Been listening to it for years, since I started listening to hun hur tuu … chira xur is my introductory song for most people … I can just hear the little pony trotting along.
I’m gonna guess most people in Mongolia do. Judging by his Wikipedia page, you can’t swing a dead cat in that country without hitting a monument to him.
It’s been a year since you wrote that, but if you’re still interested, here ya go.

I’m not sure what to think about the vocals but the music in all the linked examples is mesmerizing.
Has anyone here tried throat singing or at least understand how it’s done? I cannot seem to wrap my mind around how one would produce those sounds. I remember an episode of Big Bang Theory where Sheldon was practicing it. I assumed the sound was dubbed but maybe Jim Parsons knows how to do it. It doesn’t sound human :eek:
Heck, I have a pretty high opinion of Genghis Khan. I mean, I don’t know how nice a guy he was, or anything like that, but his ability as a conqueror is pretty much indisputable.
I love when people incorporate their traditional or non-pop instruments and singing styles into new music. (Best example ever: SsingSsing, the exquisite glam Korean folk group.)
I still like old-school Huun Huur Tu that I first heard in the '90s. My two old favorites are Eki Attar and Aa-Shuu Dekei-Oo
Takes years to get good at it. Regular schlubs just use their vocal chords to make speech. These guys pay attention to the whole larynx and other bits of the throat and tongue. Here’s a walk through. If you’ve got nothing to do all day every day for decades except scan the heath for wolves while your herd slowly turns grass into hair, you could get pretty good at using all the real estate between your chest and lips to make all manner of noises not normally heard in polite company.
