The podcaster has finally learned about the biggest hardcore band in the world, despite being in the public eye for years

Turnstile, a prominent hardcore band, has finally caught the attention of Joe Rogan, a well-known podcaster. Despite being in the public eye for years, Rogan had somehow managed to avoid learning about the band until recently.

Rogan's discovery of Turnstile occurred during the 2,539th episode of *The Joe Rogan Experience*, a podcast where he is joined by various guests. In this particular episode, Rogan was accompanied by Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir. The conversation started with a discussion about Psy, the artist behind the hit song "Gangnam Style". However, it was Shaffir who brought up Turnstile, much to the surprise of the other guests.

Shaffir mentioned that he was a fan of Turnstile's old music, specifically referencing the song "Generator" from their 2018 album *Time & Space*. However, Gillis quickly corrected him, stating that "Generator" was not actually an old song, but rather a more recent release. He then mentioned that Turnstile's older songs, such as "Keep It Moving" from the 2013 EP *Step 2 Rhythm* and "Fazed Out" from the 2016 album *Nonstop Feeling*, were actually more representative of the band's older work.

Despite the correction, Rogan seemed uninterested in learning more about Turnstile. When he heard that the band was hardcore, he asked if they were "cumcore", a term that is often used to describe a subgenre of hardcore punk music. However, it's worth noting that the term "cumcore" is often associated with controversy and is not universally accepted as a legitimate subgenre.

The conversation about Turnstile was briefly interrupted by the playing of the band's music video for the combined tracks "Seein' Stars" and "Birds". This prompted Mark Normand to comment that the world was healing, although it's unclear what he meant by this statement.

The full episode of *The Joe Rogan Experience* is available to listen to, but the Turnstile conversation starts around 2 hours and 8 minutes in.
