TURIN’s The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing is out today on MNRK Heavy! At once intense and visceral, the record 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 oneself.
Darting between gorgeously affecting symphonic death metal, gloriously downbeat deathcore, and technically brash post-metal, TURIN has forged a sonic landscape made to be travelled through. Every step along the way poses a different danger, from the machine gun battery of “Abyssal” to the desolation of “Reflections;” the thoughtful gristle of “I Am The Truth” to the hardcore brute force of “Loss.” Every ebb and flow pushes you deeper into the abyss than the last, with the closing crescendo, “Our Reality In Nothing,” a swell of decadent strings and pulverizing riffs, serving as the most personal and prominent track the band has ever put together.
The band comments, “The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing focuses on the struggles of humanity alongside the effects of nihilism, letting go of trauma and healing in the modern world. [It’s] a combination of the bands blackened death metal roots alongside elements of melodic deathcore and cinematic nuances.”
As well as it being an acronym for TURIN, The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing is at the heart of the album’s concept for all the lyrics. Notes the band, “All five of us have been in situations where we act like nothing’s wrong or bothering us and 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.”
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.
