Halifax’s TURBO Shares Heartbreak Anthem “No Savior”
New NWOTHM Album âBroke And Uglyâ Out July 2024
Set to release their high-octane NWOTHM album “Broke & Ugly” this coming July 12th, Halifax, Canada’s moshpit instigators TURBO are sharing the next single and heartbreak anthem “No Savior”. The track was written by drummer Sylvain Coderre and vocalist/guitarist Evan Frizzle while both were going through nasty breakups.
“The lyrics talk about that, and issue a warning of sorts to future ladyfriends: âI ainât no savior, Iâll burn here foreverâ. It is definitely one of the albumâs standout anthems.” adds the band.

Fast, heavy, and raw, Turbo’s highly anticipated second album âBroke and Uglyâ takes the signature sound that they cultivated on their debut album “Fast As Fvck” and sees the quartet fine-tune it along with throwing in some peppering and experimentation into the songs, itâs certainly no rehash, fans of the first albumâs sound will certainly rejoice.
âBroke and Uglyâ is Turbo‘s second testament to the ups and downs of the rock-and-roll lifestyle, and it comes in swinginâ HARD. The music is raw, greasy, and mean; but itâs also tight, coordinated, and flashy. The lyrics are defiant and visceral, painting a real picture of where vocalist Evan Frizzleâs mind was during the writing process of the album. Themes go from party anthems to drugs, to women of flings-past, to life on the road, and back again. Itâs edgy, itâs real, and itâs undeniably Turbo.
The band adds:
“Itâs an absolute slaughter in 7-tracks, sure to scratch an old-school itch you didnât realize was there. Like your disheveled uncle on Christmas morning, Turbo is STILL trashed, pissed off, and sick of your shit. Get yourself a grimy slab of Thrash, add a good pinch of NWOBHM catchiness, and throw it on the burner. Mix in some spicy glam metal and sleaze rock into a bowl with a large helping of punk rock and hardcore. Drizzle that over what you have on the burner, and garnish with a singer determined to turn his voice into sand whose lifestyle and worldview will make you worry for him, and you have the recipe for Turboâs distinct flavor.”
The artwork for âBroke and Uglyâ was done by the band’s primary artist and good friend, Tim Murray. It depicts a dive-bar nightmare bathroom that has been – to put it diplomatically – well-loved. It has a few little Easter eggs from other songs from the band peppered through it, and a green hand grabbing for some shit tickets from a busted-ass urinal that belongs to the velociraptor featured in the album art from their first record, âFast As Fvckâ.”
Embodying the full-speed-ahead attitude that defines Turbo, they are recommended for fans of W.A.S.P., Motorhead, and Judas Priest.
