Turnstile

A gritty, hard-hitting, and youth-driven hardcore punk unit with heart from Baltimore, Maryland, Turnstile's blend of vintage American hardcore and blistering, groove-laden metalcore is both sonically and ideologically sound. Emerging in 2010, the band issued their debut full-length effort, Non Stop Feeling, in 2015. After inking a deal with Roadrunner, the group released the acclaimed Time & Space, followed in 2021 by Glow On.

Formed in 2010 around the talents of vocalist Brendan Yates, bassist Franz Lyons, drummer Daniel Fang, and guitarists Brady Ebert and Sean Cullen, Turnstile issued a pair of EPs -- Pressure to Succeed (2011) and Step 2 Rhythm (2013) -- before signing with Reaper Records and releasing their debut full-length, Non Stop Feeling, in 2015. The following year, the band issued the Move Thru Me EP, which included three new originals and a cover of "Fu#k Me Blind" by Washington, D.C.'s Give. The full-length Time & Space followed in 2018, and marked the group's debut outing for Roadrunner Records. Three years later, Turnstile returned with the dynamic Glow On, which included two psych-pop-tinged songs featuring Dev Hynes (aka Blood Orange). ~ James Christopher Monger
