The HU are paying tribute to their soon to be tourmates in British heavy metal legends Iron Maiden with a new cover. The gold-certified Mongolian folk metal outfit have delivered their rendition of the 1983 standout “The Trooper“. A music video for that song has also seen a release, with Odin Wadleigh having assumed the directorial duties.
Vocalist/Morin Khuur player Galbadrakh “Gala” Tsendbaatar shared the following of both the tour and his band’s rendition of the metal classic:
“The Hu is thrilled to be on Iron Maiden‘s Future Past Tour in North America. For us, this tour represents an important milestone for the Mongolian music industry and a historical step towards world stage. As a special thank you, and out of huge respect as fans of the band, we covered their legendary song ‘The Trooper‘ and are happy to be sharing that with you ahead of this tour!”
