TURNSTILE‘s new album ‘GLOW ON’ will be released on August 27th via Roadrunner Records and is now available for pre-order. The band also today share the new song ‘ALIEN LOVE CALL’ (featuring Blood Orange), which is accompanied by a music video featuring Hi8 live performance footage, which was directed and edited by vocalist Brendan Yates and guitarist Pat McCrory.Recorded with producer Mike Elizondo and co-produced by Yates, ‘GLOW ON’ follows TURNSTILE’s 2018 album ‘TIME & SPACE’, which saw the Baltimore band charting new ground for hardcore, expanding stylistic boundaries and celebrating new possibilities. With ‘GLOW ON’ that utopic vision is fully realized, with 15 tracks devoid of borders, boundaries, or entry obstacles, only abundant imagination, heart, and grooves plucked from all corners of the musical spectrum.‘GLOW ON’ includes the singles ‘HOLIDAY’, ‘MYSTERY’, ‘NO SURPRISE’ and ‘T.L.C. (TURNSTILE LOVE CONNECTION)’from the band’s recent ‘TURNSTILE LOVE CONNECTION’ EP and companion short film. The album also includes a second guest feature from Blood Orange on ‘LONELY DEZIRES’, and he also contributes additional vocals to ‘ENDLESS’.‘HOLIDAY’ prompted NPR to state, “TURNSTILE has the ability to lure even the most poptimistic listener with spectacular hooks,” while further praise came from The FADER and Pitchfork. The album opener ‘MYSTERY’ was described by Rock Sound as “joyous, frantic and thoroughly infectious,” adding to UK acclaim from Dead Press, DIY, DSCVRD, Kerrang!, Louder, New Noise, and NME.Bringing superhuman energy to the stage, TURNSTILE are scheduled to perform a string of sold-out headline shows across North America this summer. They will then hit the festival circuit in September, with sets at Firefly Music Festival, Louder Than Life and Knotfest. European dates are already scheduled for 2022 with Primavera Sound in Spain, Hellfest inFrance, and the UK’s Outbreak Fest Please see here for a full list of their tour dates.Always more appeal than demand, more liberation than limitation, TURNSTILE made their Roadrunner Records debut in 2018 with ‘TIME & SPACE’. Recorded with producer Will Yip, it saw the band exploding the most outsized tropes of hardcore with tremendous heart. The album received huge critical acclaim in the UK, with a diverse array of praise from DIY, Down For Life, i-d, Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, NME and Upset. Back in the States, it was included on Best of 2018 lists by The New Yorker, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, NPR and Billboard. GQ named it as one of The Best Albums That Shaped The 2010s.Reminding us that all music is dance music, TURNSTILE linked up with Australian producer Mall Grab in 2020 to release ‘SHARE A VIEW’, a collaborative EP of three reimagined ‘TIME & SPACE’ tracks: ‘Generator’, ‘Real Thing’ and ‘I Don’t Wanna Be Blind’.Comprised of Brendan Yates (vocals), Franz Lyons (bass/vocals), Brady Ebert (guitars), Pat McCrory (guitars) and Daniel Fang (drums), TURNSTILE’s brand of youth-minded, youth-driven hardcore punk is intent on breaking down barriers, sonically and ideologically. |
