Listen :: The Trusted - Horizontal Mind





Words: Leah Raymond 

Taken from their just released EP 'Love And Suicide', Southend's The Trusted roll out 'Horizontal Mind' as a new single cut.

It's been a while since 'Cigarettes and Chandeliers', but the quartet are still sounding ace on these new tunes.

"‘Horizontal Mind’ is a song about arrogance and single mindedness," explain the coastal band. "If ‘The Innocent’ is about the beauty of wanting to reassemble the world, then ‘Horizontal Mind’ is the bitter self-critical extreme of that idea. I guess the change in style between the songs is symbolic of the human mind, it doesn’t walk in straight lines."

'Horizontal Mind' has more of an indie-pop texture to its rolling mix of sturdy drums, charging guitars and Tom Cunningham's confident vocal touch.
