Seattle’s own metallic hardcore powerhouse Turian has unleashed the blistering title track from their upcoming album “Blood Quantum Blues”. The record is set for release on June 6th via Wise Blood Records. You can check out the new single below or stream it on your favorite platform.

Staying true to their roots in raw, unrelenting hardcore, the band takes things even further this time by weaving in a broader spectrum of influences. The result? One of the most distinctive and forward-thinking heavy music releases in recent memory. “Blood Quantum Blues” is both an aggressive hardcore statement and a spiritual weapon — a bold declaration of identity and purpose.

The band approached the new album with a completely fresh mindset, throwing out any limitations and focusing purely on making the kind of music they wanted to hear. Electronic production plays a bigger role than ever, drawing from the members’ backgrounds in electronic music prior to their foray into metal — a fusion that now defines their sound with bold confidence.

Frontperson Vern Metztli-Moon delivers deeply personal lyrics that dive into the violent history of America and the enduring wounds of colonialism. As a Yaqui Native American, their words channel ancestral grief and a powerful urge to break the cycle of generational trauma. This album is not just a sonic outburst — it’s a personal and cultural reckoning.
