‘Envy’ is the latest single from UK heavyweights of misery, the intense & visceral TURIN (formerly This Is Turin). The current bruiser comes by way of the band’s upcoming album The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing, scheduled for release via MNRK Heavy on 12th July.
Delivering a raw and uncompromising exploration of human struggles, TURIN’s The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing is an unflinching glimpse into the harsh realities of mental health, the loss of faith, and struggling to let go of trauma in a desperate attempt to find oneself.
TURIN says, “The track is about the dangers of comparing yourself to others. Seeing the projected perfect lives of others and struggling to find this equilibrium in your own life.”

The upcoming album The Unforgiving Reality In Nothing promises a soul-crushing, savage, and remarkably abrasive musical experience.
Seamlessly weaving through beautifully poignant symphonic death metal, hauntingly melancholic deathcore, and technically bold post-metal, TURIN have crafted a sonic landscape meant to be traversed.
Each track presents a unique perilous journey, from the relentless onslaught of ‘Abyssal’ to the desolate introspection of ‘Reflections,’ the contemplative intensity of ‘I Am The Truth,’ and the raw power of ‘Loss.’ With each ebb and flow, listeners are drawn deeper into the abyss, culminating in the poignant finale ‘Our Reality In Nothing,’ a fusion of lush strings and crushing riffs that stands as the band’s most personal and impactful composition to date.
This track embodies a culmination of dark emotions, infused with the collective experiences and realisations of all five members, encapsulating the essence of existing within emptiness and finding solace in it. It is a creation that is both ethereal and grounded in reality, offering both escapism and a profound awakening.
Teaming up with their trusted collaborator Mike Bennett at Fox Hound Studio, as well as enlisting the expertise of esteemed UK heavy metal producer and multiple Heavy Music Awards nominee Lewis Johns (known for his work with bands like Loathe, Rolo Tomassi, Ithaca, Employed To Serve, Svalbard, Conjurer and Pupil Slicer), TURIN sought to refine their sound and elevate their artistic vision to new heights. The outcome is a creation unlike any previous endeavour by the band, showcasing a fresh and innovative direction in their musical evolution.
Influenced by a diverse range of extreme music subgenres, TURIN are known for their bludgeoning live shows, earning them Kerrang’s MCN Live Award with appearances at the UK’s top festivals such as Bloodstock Open Air and Tech Fest plus supports with Martyr Defiled, Decapitated, Within Destruction, Hacktivist, Ingested, SikTh, Origin, Dragged Into Sunlight and a collab with Thy Art Is Murder‘s CJ McMahon on 2020’s ‘Misery’.
