We finally know what Turnstile sounds like when combined with Elton John or Dying Fetus.

Not that anyone ever thought that could be an actual thing before last week’s big announcement.

How Are Elton John and Dying Fetus Involved With Turnstile?

Turnstile just released NEVER ENOUGH: VERSIONS. The 22-track album contains reimagined versions of songs from 2025’s NEVER ENOUGH done by a variety of artists.

The list of acts participating in the project is as varied as Turnstile’s approach to hardcore music in general.

Hyper-pop singer Slayyyter does an EDM take on “BIRDS.” Hayley Williams sounds like a sultry nightclub singer from years gone by on a slowed-down version of “CEILING.”

There are also elements of jazz and, of course, hardcore at play throughout the album.

But two names on the artist list make NEVER ENOUGH: VERSIONS a curious listen: Elton John and Dying Fetus.

To be clear, the two polar-opposite acts appear on different tracks with completely different sounds.

John contributed to the reimagining of “SEEIN’ STARS.” Turnstile’s original version trends on the lighter end of their sound, while the updated one with John continues further down that path.

The reimagined version features additional piano and John’s vocals combined with Turnstile’s Brendan Yates. Here are both the original and reimagined versions for comparison.

Meanwhile, death metal vets Dying Fetus do their own version of “BIRDS,” separate from Slayyyter’s that appears earlier in the album.

Turnstile’s original lulls you into a sense of calm before launching into hyperspeed. Dying Fetus, on the other hand, go hard right out of the gate. The cover/reimaging is a ton of fun, much like the original.
