Southend-on-Sea four-piece The Trusted follow up with their latest release, "Spin," a fierce-rising indie pop track that encapsulates the uneasy pulse of contemporary desire. "Spin" is an urgent appeal to be real to matter, to be seen in the midst of the blur.
The Trusted make urgent, magnificent music by blending post-punk energy with widescreen pop ambition. "Spin" thrives on energy, and the rhythm section clicks into a robust groove that propels the song forward. The arrangement has a kaw power to it, and it sounds like the polished side of chaos. The heartbeat of the track is the raw energy that fuels it. Much of that is thanks to the way Tom Cunningham, the lead singer and songwriter, imbues every line with emotional urgency, making the song feel real and immediate.
"Spin" refuses to shroud itself in metaphors or overproduction, and so it relishes its human side. This track captures the best of both worlds for fans of contemporary indie rock and post-punk revivalists. It has slicing instruments and big, stadium-friendly goals. The Trusted show they know how to use dynamics, and it allows the chorus to grow without losing all that makes them who they are.
It's the kind of song that seems tailor-made for blasting through festival speakers or for listening to as you brood alone at night. The Trusted prove they're hunting not just for hooks but also meaning. And in so doing, they've created a single that lingers with you musically and emotionally. "Spin" is essential for those seeking high-energy indie pop with depth.
