Turn is the eponymously titled third full-length offering from the Irish indie trio Turn. Turn offered a more pop/singer songwriter direction for Meath based band. Their first album, Antisocial, had shown a strong Pixies style influence, their second album, Forward, offered an even darker side to the band's sound, but with Turn they showed they were not getting any darker. The album was a mixture of catchy pop tunes such as "It's About Nothing" and "Stop", and also more Elliott Smith inspired tunes, such as "Close Your Eyes" and "Wildside".

Opinions were very mixed about the album among fans and critics. Some[who?] called it a mile stone in musical growth for the band, others[who?] claimed it was a last-ditch effort by the band to become more commercial and popular on the Irish airwaves. However, the strength of the songs proved themselves and became live favourites instantly on the tours that followed.
