Men I trust have proven to be one of the most prolific and influential indie pop artists of the last decade and are not slowing down in 2025 with a second LP in the equus album series following equus asinus with the new record equus caballas .
Towards the end of 2019, it felt like indie pop and indie rock had oversaturated the market and left bands having to branch out and create new ways to make their music original. While this was seen with many other artists, men I trust was already naturally in that direction and released their most critically acclaimed album that year which featured a wide range of musical influences and pushed their sound forward in many ways. It feels as if every album after that has been these beautiful time capsules of the band's sound at the time, and the records feel very cohesive, calming, and nuanced. On march 19th, they put out equus asinus, which was a stunning record that saw the band play with styles such as stripped-back indie folk, alternative rnb, and art pop. And on the new record equus caballas, the band is lusher than ever with the very 80s production and emma proulx's effortlessly cool and stunning vocal delivery.
