Toronto’s Robert Alfons produces delightfully dark synthpop under the moniker TRUST. Following the March 4 release of his second full length, Joyland, the first since the departure of his former partner Maya Postepski. We’ve got a new video on our hands for “Capitol”. We previously featured the track in the first episode of Beet Box Radio. Now, it’s coupled with a series of eerie, vibrant and celestial images that breathes some added sci-fi life into the mix.
