Mongolian Rock band Uuhai have released the second single from their upcoming debut album, Human Herds, out January 9, 2026 via Napalm Records. With the originally-released demo version of “Khar Khulz” already made waves on YouTube, the band has unveiled the final master of the track.
The track includes their signature blend of traditional throat singing and horsehead fiddles with a modern Rock sound, as well as singalong passages. The band will also soon be going on a European tour.
Uuhai says about “Khar Khulz”:
‘Khar Khulz’ is a prayer, an offering, and an awakening. Through the Khulz, the earth trembles, the heavens shine, and mankind is renewed in harmony with the eternal sky.
Human Herds resonates as “an emotional ode to nature and delivers a grassroots message to society” which is that “on this earth, we are all the same.”
The band says about the album:
Human Herds is a reflection on the unstoppable tide of humanity—our migrations, our revolts, our worship, and our wounds upon the Earth. Yet in our chaos, we must remember: we all live under one sun and one moon on Earth, sharing the same fragile home.
