Ex-Turnstile<\/a> guitarist Brady Ebert has been kicked out of his new band, The S.E.T., after accusing his former bandmates of misusing funds from a benefit gig.<\/p>\n The new Baltimore hardcore band announced yesterday (February 6) that they would be parting ways with Ebert just weeks before the release of their debut EP \u2018Self Evident Truth\u2019, due on March 6.<\/p>\n In a statement shared to Instagram, The S.E.T. said the decision stemmed from recent statements he had made online towards his former bandmates.<\/p>\n \u201cBrady is no longer a member of THE S.E.T. We will not stand by his ridiculous comments and behavior toward the members of our band and our community,\u201d they wrote, thanking the\u00a0Baltimore hardcore scene for their support.<\/p>\n The band debuted in September last year, when they played their first show at Zen West in Baltimore<\/a>.\u00a0Ebert has not publicly addressed his removal from the band.<\/p>\n It comes after Ebert had shared a series of inflammatory social media comments aimed at his former bandmates in recent weeks.<\/p>\n In late January, Turnstile took to their Instagram story to post a graphic reading \u201cabolish ICE.\u201d The post was later reposted by music journalist Jesea Lee, and Ebert commented, accusing the band of performative politics.<\/p>\n \u201cLmao, no one in Turnstile cares at all about ethics or social issues in general,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThey\u2019re just pandering to their audience,\u201d per Vice<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n Ebert then went on to allege that the band misappropriated funds from a past benefit show. \u201cThey claimed all proceeds go to healthcare for the homeless,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n The musician then claimed that Turnstile raised $10,000 at that show, before frontman Brendan Yates allegedly stole $4,000 from the revenue and claimed that he did it because he \u201cneeded to \u2018pay the merch bill.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Ebert said he believed this \u201cwas false.\u201d<\/p>\n He then seemed to reference his 2022 exit from Turnstile after 12 years together<\/a>. At the time, it was reported by Lambgoat<\/em><\/a> that drummer Daniel Fang had filed for a restraining order against Ebert.<\/p>\n Ebert wrote: \u201cAlso my friends filed a restraining order and guess what, they had two laywers with them abd I showed up to court bt myself and the judge DENIED the restraining order because there was no statute in the laws about what qualifies for a restraining order that they were able to meet the requirements of.<\/p>\n \u201cIn other words they had no reason to file it and it was all over text messages which they showed the judge and the judge agreed with me without me even having to testify so next time before u spread bullshit misinformation say that shit to my face,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Ebert was one of Turnstile\u2019s founding members, alongside vocalist Brendan Yates. They started the band in 2010, joined by bassist and vocalist Franz Lyons, drummer Daniel Fang and guitarist Sean Cullen (who left in 2015 and was replaced by Pat McCrory). He played on three of the band\u2019s studio albums \u2014 2016\u2019s \u2018Nonstop Feeling\u2019, 2018\u2019s \u2018Time & Space\u2019 and 2021\u2019s \u2018Glow On\u2019.<\/p>\n NME<\/em> contacted Turnstile\u2019s representatives, but they declined to comment on the matter.<\/p>\n In other news, Turnstile were nominated in an impressive five categories at this year\u2019s Grammys<\/a>, and on the night were named as winners of Best Rock Album for their \u2018Never Enough<\/a>\u2019 record, as well as for Best Metal Performance with \u2018Birds\u2019.<\/p>\n After winning the awards, the band took to social media to speak out about the \u201cheightened state violence\u201d in America<\/a>.<\/p>\n Turnstile\u2019s \u2018Never Enough\u2019 album was\u00a0ranked at Number Eight on\u00a0NME<\/em>\u2019s list of the Best Albums Of 2025<\/a>, and the single \u2018Look Out For Me\u2019 also made its way to Number 11 on the ranking of our Best Songs Of The Year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
