The HU have teamed up with Alice In Chains’ William DuVall for a new version of their epic 2022 single This Is Mongol.

Entitled This Is Mongol (Warrior Souls), William says that it was “an exciting and fulfilling challenge to write and produce something that remained true to The HU’s sensibilities while also resonating with my own” for the song.

“Warrior Souls is a testament to the fact that, no matter where we come from, in the end, we all want the same things-to prosper in our own time despite the odds arrayed against us, making previous generations proud and leaving a worthy legacy for the future,” he continues. “I’m honoured by this collaboration and very proud of the result.”

The HU’s tovshuur player and backing vocalist Temka adds of working with William: “He’s not only an amazing vocalist but also has unique rhythm and technique to his performance, and his style matches our energy and our throat singing. The song is about the warrior souls that are within us, and its purpose is to inspire you and awaken your soul. We hope everyone enjoys this piece of art.”
