Song of the Week - Turnstile's "Never Enough"

 

The title track from the band's forthcoming album, which is due for a June 6th release, finds Turnstile taking this week's honors. The song seems to indicate another step away from their hard-core roots into a more atmospheric rock direction, as the song works off a droning groove and the melodic vocals form a sing-song chant to help hook you in. It invokes the crossroads some post-hardcore bands found themselves at with shoegaze in the 90s. However, they are certainly more uptempo than, say HUM. Whatever they are doing certainly works, despite finding them moving in a more accessible direction, which should find them poised to attract a larger audience; it's hard to complain when the song is so well written.
