Album information

The album initially placed at #36 in the Turkish Charts, even though it was released just two days ahead of 2010. As of March 2010 Şehr-i Hüzün made it in to the Top 10 in MTV Turkey and has enjoyed rising success in MTV European Charts.[3] Allmusic rated in 3,5 stars out of 5, saying that "this take on two pretty stale genres [nu metal and folk] is surprisingly fresh, if kitschy in its bombastic sensibility".[1]
