The S.E.T., which stands for ‘The Self Evident Truth’, opened for hardcore veterans Death Threat. Footage of the gig appeared soon after on Instagram as well as Reddit, with Ebert seen shredding for the new hardcore band.
The S.E.T. will next play the Baltimore Soundstage on January 31 as part of the 2026 edition of Disturbin’ the Peace festival, which will be headlined by Hatebreed.

Back in 2022, Turnstile announced they were parting ways with guitarist Brady Ebert after 12 years together.
The outfit shared the news in an Instagram story, writing: “We are deeply grateful for our time together. Our love for him continues and we wish him nothing but the best moving forward.”
Ebert was one of the group’s founding members, alongside vocalist Brendan Yates. They started the band in 2010, joined by bassist and vocalist Franz Lyons, drummer Daniel Fang and guitarist Sean Cullen (who left in 2015 and was replaced by Pat McCrory). He played on three of the band’s studio albums — 2016’s ‘Nonstop Feeling’, 2018’s ‘Time & Space’ and 2021’s ‘Glow On’.
Turnstile’s US tour kicked off on September 15 in Nashville, where they brought out Paramore’s Hayley Williams for a duet of ‘Seein’ Stars’. They will play around the country for the rest of the autumn, with support to come from SPEED, Jane Remover, Mannequin Pussy, Blood Orange, and Amyl & The Sniffers. See more information about the tour here and find any remaining tickets here.
The band’s latest album is ‘Never Enough’, which received a glowing five-star review from NME, and was also named as one of our best albums of 2025 so far.
Speaking to NME in June, drummer Daniel Fang says the success of 2021’s ‘Glow On’ didn’t create any pressure when making its follow-up. “I don’t know how anyone would have time or the bandwidth to manage outside expectations,” he said. “I don’t think any of us can even fathom that, because there’s an infinite well within everyone [in the band]… I don’t understand how anyone could be guided by that when there’s so much else to work off of.”
They played an acclaimed, moshpit-heavy Glastonbury 2025 set, and will embark on a UK and European tour, which kicks off in Dublin on October 31. See the full list of dates here and find tickets here.
In a five-star review of the Glastonbury set, NME wrote: “This set is what Turnstile are all about – there’s no needless chatter and no projections behind them illustrating what their songs are meant to symbolise. Instead, it simply boils down to the sheer intensity and precision with which they deliver each of their 15 tracks, and the unwavering loyalty they get in return. Get ready for Turnstile to dominate this summer – and beyond.”
Meanwhile, last week, an investigation was launched after a sheriff’s deputy appeared to pepper spray a Turnstile fan in Richmond.
