History

2010–2020: Early years and Nonstop Feeling

Turnstile was formed in 2010 and grew out of Baltimore's emerging hardcore scene. They released their debut EP, Pressure to Succeed, in 2011[5] and their second EP, Step 2 Rhythm, in 2013, both via Reaper Records.[6] On January 13, 2015, Turnstile released their debut full-length album, Nonstop Feeling, on the same label.[7][8] The album was recorded at Salad Days Studios with producer Brian McTernan.[9] Supporting the release of the album, Turnstile went on both an East Coast and a West Coast tour with Superheaven, titled the Nonstop Feeling Tour.[10] They also supported New Found Glory on their Spring 2015 tour. Following this tour, their guitarist Sean Coo stepped down, and a replacement was found in Pat McCrory of fellow Maryland-based hardcore band Angel Du$t.[11]

On September 16, 2016, Turnstile released their third EP, titled Move Thru Me. The record charted at No. 14 on the Billboard Heatseekers Album Chart and No. 19 on the Hard Rock Albums chart. The band embarked on the Move Thru Me Tour across the U.S. with support from Angel Du$t, Big Bite, Krimewatch, Fury and Lock on select dates in the fall of 2016. The band began recording for their second album under Roadrunner Records in the fall of 2017, completing recording in early 2018. The record was produced by Will Yip at his Studio 4 recording studio. On February 23, 2018, the band released the album, titled Time & Space – their first release under a major label.[12] This was followed by the band embarking across the U.S. on the Time & Space Tour with support from Touché Amoré, Culture Abuse and Razorbumps. A European leg followed this with support from Fury, a South Korean and Southeast Asia leg, and a U.K. leg with support from Wicca Phase Springs Eternal and Big Cheese. Three of the album's tracks were reworked with DJ and producer Mall Grab and released as an EP, titled Share A View, in January 2020.[13]

2021–present: Glow On and Ebert's departure

On June 27, 2021, the band released their fifth EP, Turnstile Love Connection, alongside an accompanying short film directed by Yates.[14] On July 15, 2021, the band announced the release of another album, Glow On. The first single from the album, "Alien Love Call", was released and featured British musician Blood Orange.[15]

On July 27, 2021, it was announced by the Suicideboys on social media[16] that they would be one of the performers for their Grey Day Tour that ran from September 25, 2021 to November 16 the same year, along with the other G59 artists, like Night Lovell, Ramirez, Germ, Shakewell, and Chetta. Other performers, like Slowthai, Chief Keef, and Yung Gravy were also present within some dates of the tour.

On August 27, 2021, the band's third full-length album, Glow On, was released, debuting at No. 30 on the Billboard 200. The album was met with universal acclaim from critics, and Rolling Stone listed Glow On at No. 8 on its list of The Best 50 Albums of 2021.

In March 2022, it was announced that the band would support My Chemical Romance on select dates of their North American Reunion Tour.

On August 12, 2022, the band announced via Instagram that they had parted ways with guitarist Brady Ebert, a couple of months ahead of their fall headlining tour.[17] Before this, Ebert had notably been absent from the band's tours, and had been replaced by Greg Cerwonka of Take Offense.[18]

On October 11, 2022, it was announced that the band would support Blink-182 on the North American leg of their 2023 global tour.[19] Meg Mills, of Big Cheese and formerly Chubby and the Gang, was brought on as touring guitarist replacing Greg Cerwonka.[20]

On November 15, 2022, it was announced that Turnstile was nominated for three Grammy Awards: "Holiday" was nominated for Best Rock Performance, and "Blackout" was nominated for both Best Rock Song and Best Metal Performance. [21]

The band continued to tour extensively throughout 2023, and in August of that year released "New Heart Designs", a joint EP with Canadian jazz band BADBADNOTGOOD, containing reworked versions of Turnstile's "Mystery", "Alien Love Call" and "Underwater Boi".
