Hardcore bands such as Touché Amoré, Pianos Become the Teeth, and La Dispute began reacting to the bloat of the then-fading MySpace boom, which had found a series of interchangeable groups flooding the scene in hopes of scoring energy drink money. But the seeds of our current moment began a decade ago with The Wave, a term that started as a joke but then stuck, as sometimes happens. The story of hardcore is one of constant death and rebirth and more sub-subgenre names than necessary. It now seems entirely reasonable to wonder, just how big can the pit get? In their decade-long journey to becoming the defining rock band of the early ’20s, they’ve paved the way for a new wave filled with peers that they’ve taught to think bigger. The crowd has reclaimed this sanitized space, kicking at the sky in ecstasy at just how much the pit has opened up lately.įrom Los Angeles’s Novo to Orlando’s House of Blues, the corporate rock venue is yet another space where hardcore did not, by and large, belong until quite recently-spaces Turnstile has now conquered with ease.

In addition to playing at weird über-clubs that hold 6,000 people, Turnstile’s recent victories include an arena tour with My Chemical Romance, spots at nearly every music festival that still books guitar bands, NPR’s Tiny Desk series, late-night talk shows, spins on rock radio, and an appearance at one incredible wedding. Since the release of its acclaimed 2021 album, Glow On, the hardcore band has taken punk’s most surly and antagonistic subgenre to places it’s never been and never really considered going. It’s strange seeing Turnstile in a venue like this, watching a band incubated in the basements and DIY venues of Baltimore adapt to the big stages. The adjacent (and very sleek) food court and merchandise area is larger than the music space, and it’s hard to ignore the feeling that you’re shopping at a high-end wellness boutique that just happens to be hosting the sickest gig in town. The sound system is so pristine it’s borderline antiseptic, and you have to use a complicated wristband system to pay for $20 whiskey cocktails.
