• READ MORE: Turnstile embarked on an odyssey of their own to make new album ‘Never Enough’.

A banda de Baltimore atuou como convidados musicais no segundo episódio da 52ª temporada do programa de esquetes dos EUA, que foi apresentado por Dakota Johnson.

For their first performance, Brendan Yates and co. tore through ‘Birds’, one of the heavier tracks from their fourth album ‘Never Enough’.

Later in the episode, Turnstile returned to perform two songs back-to-back, opening with the dreamier ‘I Care’ before crashing into ‘Dull’.

The appearance came just one night after Turnstile performed at Austin City Limits in Texas, and it capped a huge period for the band following the release of ‘Never Enough’ in June last year.

Birds' venceu o prêmio de Melhor Performance de Metal nos Grammys em fevereiro, enquanto 'Never Enough' levou o prêmio de Melhor Álbum de Rock.

Following those Grammy wins, Turnstile spoke out against what they described as “heightened state violence” around the world.

Mais tarde, ao falar com a NME nos BRIT Awards, Yates disse que era importante que os artistas utilizassem suas plataformas, acrescentando: “Artists serve as a mirror to reflect what’s happening in the world.”.

NME gave ‘Never Enough’ a glowing five-star review upon release, praising its “heartfelt hardcore poptimism” and describing the record as a continuation of the band’s “vibrant eccentricity”.

In August, they followed it with ‘Never Enough: Versions’, a complete reworking of the album featuring collaborators including Elton John, Hayley Williams, Blood Orange, A.

G. Cook, Julien Baker, Four Tet and Slayyyter.

Turnstile’s SNL slot followed KATSEYE’s debut appearance on last week’s season premiere. Rosalía is due to serve as musical guest next Saturday (October 10), when Shane Gillis hosts the show.
