Album information

The album initially placed at No. 36 on the Turkish charts, even though it was released just two days ahead of 2010. As of March 2010, Şehr-i Hüzün had made it into the top 10 in MTV Turkey, and enjoyed rising success on the MTV European charts.^[3]

Allmusic rated it 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]
