As we approach zero hour for this year’s inevitable Fest, Punknews continues our series of Fest focused freewheeling. Today, interviewer Matt Sweeting talks with Twelve Hour Turn regarding their music and decision to play for No Idea’s 25th anniversary. Sweeting writes: When one thinks of Jacksonville, Florida, the bustling punk community is usually not the first thing that comes to mind. Over the years there have been glimpses of creative energy. Whether it was “progressive night” at Einstein-a-go-go, Rein Sanction or Lysergic Garage Party, it was Twelve Hour Turn that proved to be the city’s finest contribution to Florida’s underground music continuum. Starting in the mid 90’s and continuing into the early 2000’s, Twelve Hour Turn bled, sweated, and churned out some of the most dynamic and compelling music of the time. Between house shows, the Moto Lounge, Art Bar, Jack Rabbits, Thee Imperial, Heartworks, and more, these guys truly created a flower in a sea of shit. They made my life more enjoyable while they were doing their thing, and I can’t wait to rock out with them again.
