Lies, all lies

i do like The Hu.

Started a YouTube Music 'radio' list based on Avenge Sevenfold's 'The Wicked End' in the operating room a few weeks ago, and after a couple hours of the algorithm digging its own rabbit hole, it phased itself out of that kind of alternative rock in favor of The Hu and viking sea shanties and just weird shit leading to weirder shit.
Fuckin loved it. Doc wasn't a fan; circulating nurse thought it was funny and refused to change it. 10/10.
- I also work in an OR and Spotify does the same thing. We will just leave on something like 80s rock radio playing over night and when we come back the next morning we hear Snoop Dogg blasting from the same playlist lol
Wolf totem is balls to the wall amazing. Will change the mood of any room/car instantly for the good.
- Wolf totem is one of my gym music!
They were supposed to open for Iron Maiden when I saw them last year but had equipment issues or something and couldn’t play :( I was looking forward to seeing them. Their music is sick.
I like Tengger Cavalry
Nine Treasures represent

All my homies love the Hu.

Yuve yuve yu.
Came to make sure someone had mentioned The Hu
Introduced to them via Star Wars.

Mongolian, but it's a vibe

E: touch some grass if a Spotify link triggers you

The Hu - cover of "The Trooper"
If Mongolian throat singing metal is your thing then there's more good stuff from The Hu:
Wolf Totem
Yuve Yuve Yu
Shoog Shoog
Sugaan Essena (Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order)
- Oh, there is actually a band called "The Hu." I thought glitchdx was joking.
- Sugaan Essena (Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order)
  For those who haven't played it, they're featured as an actual in-game band. They pop up a couple times, but here's the intro:

If you must use Spotify, you could at least not link to it.
- Just listen to some music and get over it

Better than country

Better than the "country" they play on the radio, without a doubt. That shit with lyrics like " I fucked my truck and my wife got mad. My dog wanted to join but we were banging her dad" all deserves the flush.
He's definitely not a strictly country artist, but check out Lord Huron. Bag of Bones is a good starter. He wouldn't be making the music he does if it wasn't for the country artists that came before, and he's pushing the genre in some real Modest Mousian directions in the best of ways
- I love Lord Huron but I’ve always thought of him as folk rather than country, personally. Do you have any examples of country artists who’ve inspired him? I generally dislike country but I haven’t really given it a fair try and that sounds like a good place to start
u havent actually listened to country then
- Country was supplanted by stadium country like 20 years ago.
Hick Hop

EEEEOOOOOUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRREEEOOOUUUUIIIIIIRRRRRR

I know, I know: "it's a shitpost..." But there's not a single type of music that sounds better at full blast. And if you inflict your music on others in public instead of using headphones, you're an asshole.

If you use open backed headphones, you can enjoy your music at its best quality while also sharing it to other people sharing your bus. Win-win!
There's a special place in hell for any person playing any sound loudly in public places. Recently there was some dude scrolling TikTok at full blast in the train. I'd rather have any form of continuous music over that distracting bombardment of random sounds.
- In Ireland, we've recently introduced fines for that sort of thing.
- People do that shit in restaurants here, its so bad.
Classical music. Classical music sounds better at full blast. Anything with either organ or orchestra. Blast it.
- I saw the London Symphony Orchestra play Holst's The Planets at the Royal Albert Hall at the weekend. We were sat right up by the organ pipes, so when they started rumbling it was absolutely incredible.
  10/10
- i think we should go back to organ music only being played live on actual organs, which are audible in a 10km radius
Grunge sounds way better on full blast imo.
But yeah, people who use speakers in public are assholes.

Not to down Tibetan throat singing, because that shit is awesome, no shade to my girl, either, because she said she listen to all types, she didn't say she liking all types. She hasn't left the table!!

Make it that trap beat Mongolian shit and Im down

I posted this in another comment, but the remix is a must-listen if you haven't heard it before.

I (not Indian) used to play Hindi film music on my stereo at college at top blast. It's actually very listenable overall, but the women singing in falsetto can be hard to get used to -- it is one of the most penetrating sounds on earth. Everybody on my floor hated the living shit out of me.

Mongolian throat singing is nothing.

Gotta whip out modern classical music.

I like studying to Penderecki myself.

Morf is a good way to introduce more mainstream-centric people to the sound of throat singing

Rolling through Diablo type dungeons or silent hill levels lmao

I opened this expecting some straight nonsense and I'm not usually one to compare wildly different types of music but... this has a 1000x more soul and spirit than the most awarded pop singer in the anglosphere - Taylor Swift.

is that the same lady from the boyfriend looking back at the lady in the red dress meme?

Yeah, they are models for a stock photographer - https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/antonio-guillem
It's pretty funny because all three of the models in the distracted boyfriend meme are used in a bunch of situations
The walking girl is the girlfriend's dentist
The couple works together and the fallout is awkward
The dentist tries to apologize to the girlfriend, but girlfriend only pretends to forgive her
Etc.
- Didn't someone make like an entire story from all of these at one point? I remember it being a bit of a stretch but still funny.

Ummet Ozcan is pretty good if you wanna introduce throat singing to someone who prefers techno.

I’d really like to see a “where are they now” for that trio of actors who did this photoshoot. I’m sure someone interviewed them for a “I was in a meme” video…

We went to a concert of Tibetans doing the throat singing and it was cool as fuck.

Introspective arythmic diddly jazz is my music kryptonite. Similarly, the taqsim that is the opening part of so much good Egyptian music. It sounds abusively selfish to me. I do like a diverse array of genres but picky about jazz, or anything without a rhythm.
