SHUNGITE SHOUT-OUTS

“What makes Shungite work is how honest it feels, it’s Turgeon taking the sounds that shaped him and putting them forward as his own. For anyone who still has a soft spot for that stretch of 90s rock, there’s plenty here to dig into.”

Pitch Perfect

“US artist continues to shine on anthemic new EP... With 'Shungite', Richard Turgeon has turned up the volume, dirtied the edges, and found a new gear. It’s a collection that celebrates the guitar as a driving force, propelling him into his boldest territory yet.”

- Mystic Sons

“100 mph in you face excellence that changes direction at will without ever calming down… Shungite is a cracking listen... the whole thing is a celebration of the joy of the guitar.”

— I Don’t Hear a Single

“Shungite is more reliably great work from Richard Turgeon.”
