TRUST, Joyland Posted: 04 Mar 2014 06:00 AM PST   Abandoning surly lo-fi for perfectly sheen production In the two years since their brooding, coldwave-inspired debut album, Trst, Toronto synthpop outfit Trust lost a member (Maya Postepski, who left to focus on her band Austra) and became an alias for singer Robert Alfons. The switch-up seems to have given Alfons a new sense of clarity — on his new album Joyland, he mostly abandons Trust’s typically surly lo-fi sound for production that’s polished to a disconcertingly perfect sheen.
