The Trusted blend sorrow with euphoria on their infectious new single, Criminals.

Following up their EP Love And Suicide, The Trusted are back with an irresistible cut of indie/electro-pop, Criminals. With a hint of nostalgia, the track pairs crisp instrumentation with cinematic synths and longing vocals that coalesce into an expansive sonic experience. Described by the band as “the most emotional song we’ve ever written”, Criminals lands somewhere between swooning melancholia and irrepressible joy of life, finding The Trusted exploring a more electronic sonic territory.

Speaking on the new release, the band shares:

The song is about loss, heartbreak, guilt and self-absorption. It’s a sad and honest track, but at the same, it’s kind of beautifully uplifting.
