монгол металл (Mongolian Metal) (n.) [mɒŋ-gəʊ-li-ən met-(ə)l]: Mongolian Metal Music, also known as Hunnu Rock, is a unique subgenre of heavy metal that has been gaining popularity in recent years. The subgenre's roots lie in Mongolia's complex history, particularly during the time of communism. While under control of the Soviet Union, Western music was heavily censored in Mongolia, and access to rock and metal music was extremely limited. However, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Mongolia underwent a period of political and cultural reform, and young Mongolians were finally able to access music from around the world. It was during this time that Mongolian Metal musicians began drawing inspiration from bands like Metallica and Iron Maiden, and traditional Mongolian instruments like the horsehead fiddle, Jew's harp and a traditional Mongolian throat singing technique, these musicians began to create a new sound that would eventually come to be known as Hunnu Rock.
