Turnstile will not be restricted by genre. The band is nominated with Bryan Adams and Brandi Carlile in the Grammys’ rock categories, and with Ghost and Megadeth in the metal field.
‘s 2012 Best New Artist acceptance speech in which he openly said he was uncomfortable with the honor comes to mind. Given that Turnstile come from a scene that very much eschews the outdated idea of “selling out,” one might think they would share Vernon’s hesitancy. They don’t.
“I always feel like there’s not really any measure of greatness when it comes to music because music can reach people in so many different ways and different scales. The impact it can leave on someone is impossible to measure,” Yates says. “Once you accept that, you can look at things through a different lens.
The recognition also highlights growth in a genre — to use an “antiquated term” — that has taken a backseat in recent years to pop and hip-hop. The Grammys haven’t aired the rock category on its TV broadcast in years. “What’s looked at as the most popular thing is always going in circles,” Yates says. “Everything is always equally existing — not dying, just taking different shapes. What’s considered mainstream is always shifting. I think it’s good for things to be constantly shifting.
