As Turnstile gear up to make their live return in 2021 (including a just-announced slot on Slipknot's huge Knotfest Iowa), the Baltimore heroes will now be bringing fresh music along for the ride, having just released a brand-new single: Mystery.

The track is the band's first official new song since 2018's incredible Time & Space album, having also unveiled their Share A View collaboration with Mall Grab in 2020 between then.

A press release declares that, on Mystery, Turnstile "search for beauty and find peace in the unknown as they reject the notion of normal". Hear it for yourself below:

Speaking to Kerrang! in 2018 about their genre-bending take on hardcore punk, frontman Brendan Yates enthused: "Hardcore can be whatever anyone wants it to be. It’s about a sense of community where a show can happen anywhere there’s a room for people to come to. It’s about the collective diversity, where bands can express themselves in the ways that best resonate with them. It’s about finding common ground that’s all connected, whether the bands involved are super melodic or super hard-hitting.

"Not defining what hardcore is can be what makes it most exciting."

Well, we really can't wait to hear what else they've got up their sleeves following Mystery…
