Turnstile stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to debut two new songs, ‘I CARE’ and ‘DULL’.
The two songs will appear on their imminent new album ‘Never Enough’, which drops via Roadrunner on Friday (June 6).
The Baltimore hardcore band performed wearing large retro-style headphones. ‘I Care’ appears to be a more melodic number with a surf rock-inspired sound, while a dramatic switch to red lighting signaled the beginning of ‘Dull’, the heavier of the pair of songs.
In the run-up to their fourth album, Turnstile released the title track, ‘Seein’ Stars’, ‘Birds’. and ‘Look Out For Me’.
Check out their performance below:
They debuted the first three singles live at Wyman Park Dell in their hometown last month, footage of which circulated widely online.
NME recently caught up with Turnstile to discuss the new album, in which drummer Daniel Fang revealed how they shut out the noise of external pressures to deliver the follow-up to their landmark 2021 album ‘Glow On’.
“In terms of avoiding or engaging with outside expectations, there was absolutely zero,” he said. “Fortunately, we were never steered down a certain road: ‘Because ‘Glow On’ happened to be received this way, we need to recreate this or emulate that’. It all comes from the same place: does it actually resonate with us? Does it scratch the impulse to do something new and creative?
“I don’t know how anyone would have time or the bandwidth to manage outside expectations,” he added. “I don’t think any of us can even fathom that, because there’s an infinite well within everyone [in the band]… I don’t understand how anyone could be guided by that when there’s so much else to work off of.”
Turnstile also have a busy few months of touring ahead of them, including two huge UK live shows. Last November, it was confirmed that the members would be playing an exclusive show at the LIDO London branch of Outbreak festival. This will see them take to the stage alongside Alex G, Danny Brown, Drug Church, Feeble Little Horse, Fleshwater, Have A Nice Life, Julie and Knocked Loose.
In late June, the band will also be making a stop at Glastonbury 2025. They join headliners Neil Young, The 1975 and Olivia Rodrigo, as well as other big names including Biffy Clyro, The Maccabees, Lucy Dacus, Father John Misty, RAYE, Wolf Alice, The Prodigy and many more.
They will also play an album launch show in Brooklyn at Under The K Bridge on June 5. Find any remaining tickets here.
In a five-star review of Turnstile’s acclaimed 2021 record ‘Glow On’, NME said that the album “goes wherever it damn pleases, scorching a new path for others in their wake”. It added: “Sometimes not knowing where you’re going next is the most exciting thing possible.”
