The New Trust Announce Plans For New Album & Head Out On Tour!



A logical progression from the dark tones of the band's latest official release, this new album's worth of material is poised to deliver the angular guitar, intricate drumming and abrasive bass that's become a trademark foundation supporting Staples' eerie-sweet vocals. The song titles may be subtle—"Compromise," "The Tiny Hours," "Keep Dreaming," "The Taking Tree"—but the visceral impact is heavy. "This is the hardest-sounding record we've written," assures Staples.

And then there's the new album's tentative title: The New Trust 'Keep Dreaming'. Does this imply a  don't-quit-your-day-job-esque tongue, planted in cheek? Actually, Staples claims that these songs all have origins in dreams, whether in concept or melody. "Many of the initial ideas of these new songs are from dreams I've been having, or music I've remembered upon waking. But it's not a concept album, don't worry. Just dreamier than usual for us. Literally."
