Updated June 09, 2026

Pop-punk quartet Turn Two released their single "Nice Thing" in April of 2026. The Jersey Shore band mixes inspiration from early pop-punk like Fall Out Boy and Jimmy Eat World, and a rock edge from the likes of Coheed and Cambria.

"Nice Thing" starts with upbeat guitar strumming as punk singing is introduced as screams, emphasizing individual words to keep things interesting. The full band kicks in as a classic pop-punk sound is instantly recognizable with scream-singing, slamming drum beats, and dramatic, bright guitar rhythms, building a catchy, rock sound.

Turn Two does an excellent job of bringing the nostalgic days of pop-punk back to life while keeping a modern touch that keeps it exciting and new. At just under 3 minutes, "Nice Thing" keeps it short and sweet, with a bridge that creates a massive soundscape as distant choir vocals, energetic guitars, and vocal harmonies create an anthemic sound. The song bursts into a final chorus before suddenly fading out.

Overall, Turn Two showcases a polished pop-punk sound that harnesses the energy of acts like Fallout Boy and Blink-182 into a modern sound with excellent production. You can stream "Nice Thing" available on all platforms now.
