Mongolian metal innovators THE HU have announced their third studio album, Hun, set for release on July 24, 2026, via Better Noise Music. The record features eleven tracks, including the lead single "Lost Soul," which features guest vocals from Jonny Hawkins of NOTHING MORE.
Hun continues the band's signature "Hunnu Rock" sound — blending traditional Mongolian instruments including the morin khuur and tovshuur with heavy metal arrangements. "We took our time to do this right, and we're so glad that we're almost ready to release what we have worked on these past few years," the band stated. Guitarist Galaa added of the collaboration: "Hunnu rock transcends through culture and in that respect, we have made 'Lost Soul' with Jonny Hawkins."
THE HU are currently touring across North America with APOCALYPTICA and THE RASMUS through June 7, 2026. The band hold UNESCO's "Artist For Peace" designation and have had their music featured in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Netflix's One Piece series.
