UK heavyweights of misery, the intense and visceral Turin (formerly This Is Turin), will unleash their new studio album “The Unforgiving Reality in Nothing”, on July 12th, 2024, via MNRK Heavy.
“The Unforgiving Reality in Nothing” is an unflinching glimpse into the harsh realities of what it means to be human, mental health, the loss of faith, and struggling to let go of trauma in a desperate attempt to find yourself.
Turin comments: “As well as it being an acronym for Turin, it’s been at the heart of this album’s concept for all the lyrics. All five of us have been in situations where we act like nothing’s wrong or bothering us, the reality of doing that is unforgiving. It harms us. It can impact those around us and often the reality of the situation doesn’t change until we speak up and look for support. In some cases, forgiveness. We wrote this song at the tail end of the COVID lockdown in the UK as a way for us to reinvent our sound and push forward with whatever the next stage of this band would be. What came from it was a new album and a new drive to evolve what we have”.
New single, “Loss”, is a self-reflective view of losing a fundamental part of yourself that made you human; clawing at the hope of being saved through any means but being ultimately abandoned. The video was shot when fellow MNRK Heavy labelmate Travis Worland (Enterprise Earth) was in the UK on their recent tour with Suffocation.
Watch the official video for the new track “Loss” below.
For “The Unforgiving Reality in Nothing”, Turin worked with one of the UK’s finest heavy metal producers and multiple Heavy Music Awards nominee Lewis Johns (Loathe, Rolo Tomassi, Ithaca, Employed To Serve, Svalbard, Conjurer, Pupil Slicer) creating a milestone in the band’s long history in the metal scene, a pure evolution of their sound and writing ability to define a new chapter for UK deathcore.
