Turnstile’s Visual Album for ‘Never Enough’ Gets an Extended Run at Brain Dead Studios
Los Angeles’ Brain Dead Studios will be screening Turnstile: Never Enough, a visual album accompanying the Baltimore hardcore band’s much-anticipated fourth studio release. Clocking in at 55 minutes, the film is directed by frontman Brendan Yates and guitarist Pat McCrory — blurring the line between punk performance and cinematic experience. The screening marks a rare opportunity to catch the band’s creative evolution in a space as stylistically sharp as the visuals themselves.
Originally scheduled to run from June 5 through June 8, the film’s screenings at Brain Dead Studios quickly sold out, prompting the venue to add two additional dates, June 21 and June 26. That extended run is a testament to the band’s fanbase and a reminder that Turnstile doesn’t just release albums — they create events.
For the uninitiated (or those just arriving late to the pit), Turnstile has been shaking the walls of punk since the early 2010s. They’ve carved out a lane that embraces hardcore, alternative, and R&B-adjacent vibes without compromising an ounce of their edge. The hardcore punk band from Baltimore earned three nominations at the 2023 GRAMMYs — Best Rock Performance for “Holiday,” Best Metal Performance, and Best Rock Song for “Blackout.” Their last album, GLOW ON (2021), launched them into another stratosphere, earning critical acclaim.
Never Enough released on June 6 via Roadrunner Records, and is their first full-length release in four years. This marks a new era for the band as it is also the debut of guitarist Meg Mills, who joined the group after original member Brady Ebert exited in 2022.
The film just premiered at the 2025 Tribeca Festival, and features all 14 tracks from the new record, including the title track, the glitter-punchy single “Seein’ Stars,” and “Birds,” a standout collaboration with Hayley Williams (Paramore) and Devonté Hynes (Blood Orange). These singles already have visuals out, and they’re expected to be folded into the larger film, tying the album’s themes of connection, chaos, and clarity into one visceral whole.
And it’s not just the film that fans can get hyped about — Brain Dead Studios is also selling exclusive Never Enough merch on-site. Expect limited-edition t-shirts and a special Brain Dead x Turnstile vinyl pressing that feels more like an artifact than a product.
If you need proof that Turnstile still has their roots in community, look no further than their recent (and free) hometown show in Baltimore — a sweaty, cathartic, and generous reminder of where they came from and who they play for. Their 2025 tour is already shaping up to be a monster, with a mix of sold-out venues and surprise sets that keep fans on their toes.
So yeah — catch the visual album at Brain Dead Studios. Because watching Never Enough on your phone isn’t going to cut it. This one deserves a big screen, a dark room, and maybe a friend to hold onto when the feedback hits.
