Two song were taken from their upcoming fourth studio album “NEVER ENOUGH”, which is set to be released on June 6, 2025. The first single, the title track was released on April 8, 2025.
Both songs were written by Turnstile and produced by Brendan Yates and Will Yip. The accompanying music video was directed by Brendan Yates and Pat McCrory.
On “SEEIN' STARS”, American rock band Paramore's Hayley Williams performed as background vocals.
The band frontman Brendan Yates told Jack Saunders about two songs, These songs are kind of this relationship between stillness and chaos and that they're also just a smaller piece of a bigger puzzle that you'll see down the line.”- He continued, “I guess there's an element of a lot of inspiration coming from dreams and moments and dreams that are based in reality. And that's kind of the gist, I guess. I mean, I guess, for us to it's like, I love the ability to kind of have a song where we didn't kind of exist in one kind of feel and tempo and just one groove the entire time. I feel like for us, and my typical brain writing songs is very like, jump all around and just change tempos and speeds and all kinds of stuff at all times. And I think something about sinking into this was kind of a cool way to really just like, sink into a feeling and exist in it, and find peace in it and get lost in it.”

He talked about working Hayley Williams, “We've been friends for a long time, such like a fan and just admire of everything her in the band do. And it was just great, because it was very natural where we were just hanging out in the studio and you want to try some stuff and just like, throw in some paint at the wall, and it just, it kind of was one of those natural moments where it just felt right.”
The new album comprises 14 songs, produced by Brendan Yates and Will Yip. It is their first album in four years since the 2021 album “Glow On”
The band recorded the album with producer Will Yip between Los Angeles and the their homes in Baltimore.
