Turnover returns with their latest album, Myself in the Way, a sprawling 2-hour exploration of Midwest emo, dream pop, and pop-punk that pushes boundaries while staying true to their signature sound. Released on March 29, 2024, via Run For Cover Records, the album expands far beyond the original tracklist with a treasure trove of remixes, alternate versions, and live recordings, offering a deep dive into the creative process behind each song.
The core of Myself in the Way is a collection of raw, intimate tracks that blend introspective lyrics with anthemic energy. Standout cuts like "Stone Station" and "People That We Know" showcase Turnover’s knack for balancing melancholy with infectious hooks, while deeper cuts like "Tears of Change" and "Ain’t Love Heavy" reveal a band unafraid to sit in their emotions. The live recordings from Studio 4 add an extra layer of authenticity, capturing the songs in their rawest form.
But the real surprise comes in the remixes and alternate versions—Toy Problem, Anthenagin, EXIT COST, and others reimagine tracks with fresh energy, from the glitchy reinvention of "Bored of God / Orlando" to the dreamy sprawl of "Mountains Made of Clouds (Healing Potpourri Remix)." Even the Frank Watkinson version of "Mountains Made of Clouds" offers a hauntingly stripped-back take, proving that Turnover’s music is endlessly malleable.
Whether you’re here for the originals, the remixes, or the live cuts, Myself in the Way is a celebration of experimentation and growth. It’s Turnover at their most expansive—proving that this isn’t just an album, but a full-fledged experience.
