The Amity Affliction Cover Turnstile’s ‘Holiday’ for ‘Like a Version’

The Amity Affliction have made their debut on triple j's Like a Version series, taking on Turnstile's 2021 single 'Holiday.'

Formed in the Queensland city of Gympie in 2003, The Amity Affliction have been staples of triple j’s heavy music rotation over the years but have remained absent from the station’s Like a Version studio until 2025. Turning their attention towards the cover portion, The Amity Affliction were uncharacteristically joined by strings and keyboards as they delivered a high-energy rendition of Turnstile’s “Holiday.” The track was originally issued as the fifth and final single of the Baltimore outfit’s 2021 album Glow On, which became their most successful record to date, hitting No. Numerous artists have taken part over the past two decades, with the likes of Billie Eilish, Childish Gambino, Arctic Monkeys, and more reinventing classic tracks in the process.
