Turnstile have revealed the upcoming release of Never Enough, a 14-track album and visual film project set to premiere at Tribeca Festival and hit theaters across the U.S. next week.

Meanwhile, The Amity Affliction have paid tribute to Turnstile’s earlier work with a stripped-down yet heavy cover of Holiday for triple j’s Like A Version, reconnecting with their hardcore roots.

Directed by Turnstile’s Brendan Yates and Pat McCrory, Turnstile: Never Enough debuts June 5 at Tribeca, followed by a wide theatrical release in over 300 U.S. cinemas. The film is a visual counterpart to their album Never Enough, which drops June 6 and was recorded between Los Angeles and Baltimore. Produced by Yates, the collection includes tracks like “Look Out For Me,” “Seein’ Stars,” “Birds,” and “Magic Man,” offering a restless extension of the band’s genre-defying trajectory since Glow On (2021).

Turnstile will promote the release with a June 3 performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and a June 5 record release show at Under The K Bridge in Brooklyn. Support comes from End It, Teezo Touchdown, Boy Harsher, and Big Boy. Their summer includes a heavy run of festival appearances across Europe, including Primavera Sound (Barcelona and Porto), Outbreak Fest (London), Hellfest (Clisson), Jera On Air (Netherlands), and Glastonbury, as well as North American dates like Ottawa Blues, Aftershock, and III Points.

While Turnstile gear up for their next chapter, The Amity Affliction have revisited the band’s earlier sound with a cover of Holiday, originally from Glow On. Created for triple j’s Like A Version series, the rendition adds synths and strings to the thrashing original, with Melbourne producer Misstiq joining on keys.

Guitarist Dan Brown explained the band had cycled through “hundreds” of songs before choosing Holiday, citing the connection to the East Coast hardcore sound they grew up on. “Back in hardcore, you would cover your friends’ bands,” Brown told triple j. “That was quite normal… Hopefully [Turnstile] see it like that.”

“It’s our roots I guess and they’re a band using those roots to do this brand new thing which is really cool.”

Brown and drummer Joe Longobardi described the experience as a return to form, evoking the early years of van tours and DIY shows. “It’s a real where you came from moment,” Brown said.

The cover lands alongside Amity’s new single All That I Remember, released May 29 with a refreshed lineup: Joel Birch, Dan Brown, Joe Longobardi, and Johnathan Reeves. Vocalist Joel Birch shared a stark statement on the track’s subject matter: “My mother knew only abuse and isolation, even in death as she cut her own children off. She died as she lived, paranoid and alone.”

Turnstile’s Never Enough is available June 6. More info at turnstilehardcore.com and turnstile.movie.
