From the very beginning, TURNING POINT was unique and not what youâd expect from a hardcore band. They expanded on the sounds of bands like YOUTH OF TODAY and CHAIN OF STRENGTH, and brought in more melody while taking inspiration from 7 SECONDS to push more emotion in their lyrics. Their impact was immediate. Originally released in 1990 on hardcore powerhouse NEW AGE RECORDS, “Itâs Always Darkest⦠Before The Dawn”, would be TURNING POINTâs only full-length. While the band only existed for a very short time, over 30 years later, its influence is still being felt. REVELATION RECORDS is proud to bring back Itâs Always Darkest⦠in its original, stand-alone form as the third installment of reissuing the bandâs out-of-print catalog.
