Turnstile lay some claim to being a hardcore band whilst sounding like Weezer. Such is music in the Bandcamp age.

No. NO. JUST NO. They would never play pointed guitars...

So like Turnstile I went had a listen to their first album and the two preview tracks of the new album.
Unlike Turnstile it’s perfectly decent music. Kind of 80s/90s “college rock”. Definitely something I’d want my kids getting into because they might start looking into their inspiration.
Honestly they could have released their first album in 1992 and I wouldn’t have known the difference.
Not breaking any boundaries but not crap.

Well… Page Hamilton picked that magenta ESP primarily to annoy Lower East Side hipsters. He played a Les Paul and G&Ls prior.

That’s probably why I find it so forgettable. Honestly I listened to a whole album and all I can remember is a bit that kinda sounded like Deafheaven on chill mode.Krev wrote: Fri Jun 20, 2025 10:18 am Turnstile lay some claim to being a hardcore band whilst sounding like Weezer.

I know I’m too old to listen to Turnstile because the first time I saw that video I couldn’t stop thinking about how everyone looked like Gap models.
I reject face fascism and all good looking bands.

In my limited exposure to Turnstile I’m saying “311 meets the less good Suicidal Tendencies catalog”. A deeper dive into Turnstile may reveal apt comparisons with other bland ostensibly aggressive music, but I’m not gonna bother.

We're at an all time low as far as 'critically acclaimed' music. Wet Leg, Idles, Amyl and the Sniffers (the fucking WORST), Big Thief, Turnstile...the list goes on. All complete fucking shite.
