Emerging from Baltimore’s vibrant hardcore community in 2010, Turnstile rapidly established themselves through early Reaper Records EP releases “Pressure to Succeed” (2011) and “Step 2 Rhythm” (2013). The group unleashed their debut full-length effort, “Nonstop Feeling”, on January 13, 2015 via Reaper, having tracked the project at Salad Days Studios under the direction of producer Brian McTernan. To promote the LP, the band embarked on a bi-coastal headlining trek alongside Superheaven before sharing the stage with pop-punk veterans New Found Glory on their Spring 2015 tour. Following those extensive touring cycles, founding guitarist Sean Cullen departed the lineup, prompting the addition of Pat McCrory from fellow Baltimore hardcore outfit Angel Dust.
