AUDIO: Joey Turbo – “Up Against the Wall Motherfucker”

Joey Turbo of Rio Turbo, Platinum Boys, Messy and more has a new album that dropped on Friday, and it feels like the diary of a turbulent couple of years in his life. From multiple stints in a hospital to the recent closure of his bar and venue, Promises, Turbo has lived through a lot in that period, and that comes out on this release. “Up Against The Wall Motherfucker” experiments with heavy, retro feeling synths and drums that play with pop in a way that Rio Turbo didn’t, and a jangly, guitar driven songs that doesn’t feel like Platinum Boys. The album feels like an intersection of those worlds, all while Turbo is sharing his spirit with the world. Check it out here:
