Before Thurnin enters the studio to produce a new album, the Dutch dark folk project is announcing a reissue of its debut full-length Menhir (2021) via the recently signed with Auerbach Tonträger (a sub-label of Prophecy Productions). The self-released first album was sold out twice rapidly and is already much sought-after, which is hardly surprising as the full album stream on YouTube has passed the 1 million views milestone.
The new edition of Menhir will first get released as a digipak CD on 11 November, and for the first time, as gatefold LPs on black vinyl and forest green marbled vinyl that will follow as current production times allow.
The mastermind and sole member of Thurnin, Jurre Timmer, comments: "I am thrilled to finally be able to present Menhir on vinyl and to deliver a brand new digipak print run as well. The love for Menhir has truly exceeded all my expectations, and being able to expand into the vinyl territory is a huge honour. There has been a strong demand for vinyl from the start and it became one of my priorities to fulfil this request. Here we are now. It is also a great opportunity to thank you for all of the amazing support so far. The digipak version already sold out twice and I'm very grateful that there's still such a strong demand for it. I can hardly wait to see those beauties shipped and in your hands. Thank you all so very much!"
Thurnin's debut full-length Menhir attracts listeners beyond limitations such as style or genre. Although based on the sound of dark folk and created by a musician with black metal roots, a background that founder Jurre Timmer shares with Wardruna mastermind Einar Selvik, the Dutch musician has tapped into something deeper, and with his vision.
The album title "Menhir" derives from a Breton word denoting a standing stone, mysterious ancient monuments from the stone, bronze, and iron ages that are found across Europe far and beyond. Just like those relics from the past, Thurnin's music inspires dreams and visual images taking the listener to otherwordly realms filled with magical wonders.
