It’s official: ‘Frisson Noir’, Tarja Turunen’s new metal album, will be released on June 12th, 2026!
‘Frisson Noir’ marks Tarja’s first studio album of entirely new material in seven years – and her heaviest work to date, firmly rooted in the genre that has always been part of her musical identity: Metal.
The signs have been there for weeks. Studio moments. Video shoots. Clues unfolding across Tarja’s channels. The speculation kept building – and some of you were carefully piecing together every hint along the way. Watching it all take shape step by step has been something special for us.
We’re very much looking forward to finally sharing this next chapter with you.
The first single, ‘At Sea’, arrives next Wednesday, alongside the start of the album pre-order. More soon.
