THE HU’S OVERNIGHT success has been a long while in the making. The seeds for Mongolia’s most successful export since Genghis Khan united the nomadic tribes and set out to conquer Europe and Asia in the 13th century were planted a decade ago, when the band’s producer Dashka started a musical project to pay tribute to his father.
This kind of connection to history runs deep in the Hu’s music, andthe second album from the inventors of ‘hunnu rock’, finds the fearsome foursome telling stories, communing with nature and offering some pretty good guidance about how we could all live our lives a little better.
