The Chelsea Hotel hasn't cracked this hard since the night Rockets Redglare probably killed Nancy Spungen

The Guy - Blaze or Die

The Guy - I'm The Guy
(From Blaze or Die twingle; 2025)



You, a square: Turnstile finally released their follow-up album to Glow On. Rawk music is back!

Me, a connoisseur: yeah, but the Arab Parrot & his m8 Dutch made the best Squawk & Roll song of the 2020s so far and they're back with two new songs.

Fair play, this pair really know how to compose and crank out a Rawk song with chef's kiss flourishs. Granted, I'm The Guy is an cheeky acoustic flip the script of Bruce Springsteen's I'm On Fire, but they've bodied the source material musically and lyrically. Forget Cock-Rawk, the 3 Guy songs are Crack-Rawk.

  2. Aye. Look up the theory. Although it also might have been another Chelsea Hotel junkie scumbag called Michael who looked like he could have gone on to join Hanoi Rocks.

    Sid Vicious innocent!

  5. And then there are those of us how love The Guy and Turnstile equally but differently.

    I like Turnstile’s new record a lot. Favourite album in all genres of 25 for me so far.

    It’s practically impossible to google The Guy lol

    1. Search for Reza Nader.

      Why does Turnstile never perform Dance Off live tho? 🧐 My fave song of theirs.
