Critical Acclaim for ‘Never Enough’

The album ‘Never Enough’ received glowing reviews from critics, praised for its experimental approach without straying far from Turnstile’s signature hardcore sound. Highlighted for its chunky guitar riffs and powerful vocals from Brendan Yates, the album bridges the gap between hardcore and accessible melodic elements.

“Hardcore remains its lynchpin: the album rarely strays too far from a chunky, overdriven guitar, or one of vocalist Brendan Yates’ throat-splitting yells… Combining a sentimental regard for various shades of rock with a focus on big, bright melodies… the album constantly reaches out to the pop world.” — Review excerpt

This balance of raw intensity and melodic innovation is what makes ‘Never Enough’ a compelling listen for fans old and new.

The Band’s Creative Process

In a recent interview, drummer Daniel Fang shared insights into Turnstile’s approach to making music, emphasizing authenticity over external expectations.

“In terms of avoiding or engaging with outside expectations, there was absolutely zero… It all comes from the same place: does it actually resonate with us? Does it scratch the impulse to do something new and creative?” — Daniel Fang

He added that the band focuses on harnessing their own creative wellspring rather than following trends or pressures, which keeps their music fresh and genuine.

Upcoming Shows and Festival Appearances

Turnstile continues to make waves with upcoming headline performances, including Outbreak Festival, plus appearances at renowned events like Primavera Sound and Glastonbury Festival this month. Fans have plenty to look forward to as the band keeps delivering high-energy shows.
