The track follows the releases of excellent recent singles ‘Self Destruct’ and ‘Miracle Face’
The wide-reaching and expansive nature of their indie rock/pop sound has seen UK band The Trusted emerge and establish themselves as one of the most creative and reliable rising bands in the regions scene as of late, capable of putting together thoughtful and introspective ballads and upbeat anthems with a verve and sense of excitement that feels intoxicating and fresh regardless of which route they go down.
The latest single from the Southend on Sea outfit comes in the form of ‘The Lightning’, delving into themes of ego, self-worth, and inner greatness with the kind of thoughtful nuance and charm that the band have consistently established as their calling card. The track’s seamless blend of indie rock and electronica gives the track a cinematic and expansive feel throughout, making for an infectiously catchy release that has this stirring, immersive quality that sticks with you for long after your listen. It’s no surprise that the band have tapped into a sound that feels so authentic and resonating once again on the new release, and their charm and consistency while continuing to expand upon the confines of their sound is to be applauded.
