Critically acclaimed Mongolian rock group, The HU, released their Deluxe edition of THE GEREG on July 10, available in CD, double vinyl and digital formats. This new version includes 3 tracks re-made with special featured artists including Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach), Danny Case (From Ashes To New) and Lzzy Hale (Halestorm).
There are also 3 acoustic tracks on the Deluxe release: ‘Shoog Shoog’, ‘Yuve Yuve Yu’ and ‘Shireg Shireg’. The enchanting video for ‘Shoog Shoog’ shows behind-the-scenes clips of The HU in the studio, offering fans a real insight into their recording process and a closer look at their gorgeous traditional instruments.
The Gereg Deluxe holds three fantastic re-made tracks including ‘Yuve Yuve Yu’ featuring Danny Case (From Ashes To New), which was the band’s first-ever radio single peaking at #4 on the rock radio charts, and ‘Wolf Totem’ featuring Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach) which has racked up 10.5 million views on YouTube.
The last collaboration on the album ‘Song of Women’ featuring Lzzy Hale (Halestorm) came out in May, a month filled with events honoring women in the US. “I’m so thankful to THE HU for welcoming me, my words and my melody into this song,” says Hale. “I can count on less than one hand the number of times where a project has changed the course of my spirit and renewed my faith in humanity. This was one of those projects.”
Their original version of The Gereg, released in September 2019 via Better Noise Music, has sold over 140K copies worldwide and landed on several Top Ten charts, including the U.S., UK, Canada and Australia, and Top 20 charts in Germany and Sweden.
