Well this is nice and creepy. Trust is a dark electronic dance duo comprised of Robert Alfons and Maya Postepski (she plays drums in Austra's live band). They're from Toronto and they make gothic club hits to nourish the souls of the damaged.

So yeah, these synths and big beats aren't necessarily bright and happy - they're a warning that something is lurking somewhere nearby. But I'm not scared, because this is just music which is just a form of entertainment, right? Right, guys? Guys? OH MY GOD THEY FOUND ME! I DON’T KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME!!

But moving on, Trust recently toured with Crystal Castles, Hercules and Love Affair and Glass Candy. So perhaps those names will better help you navigate Trust's sound. They should also try and tour with The Knife (are they even still a band?). The Knife were scary too.

Trust is deviously addictive stuff and I'm not scared of them at all... because I'm listening to this band with all the lights on while clutching my teddy bear whose mouth can also shoot pepper spray. Stay away from me, Trust. YOU STAY AWAY!



Trust plays The Echo, on Tuesday, April 10th.
