Trust ...french hard rock/metal band from the 80's and early 90's ..they were huge in their native homeland ..I was fortunate enough to be playing professional rugby in the south of France in the late 80's and saw Trust a couple of times...always top notch.They were huge friends of Bon Scott ...Anthrax then murdered Antisocial in what must rank as one of the worst covers ever ..Anyways here's the modern day version of Trust on French tv ..

Re: Trust

I was only talking about this brilliant band to a good friend the other day! TRUST were euro- metal years before Rammstien . I know Rammstien are German TRUST French . but what they do have in common is that most of the time they sang in their national language!!! Great bands have come from Europe over the years Scorpions,Accept.etc but they have sung English..bit of a role reversal now...English singing along now in German at Rammstien gigs lol Trust werent your normal metal band singing about some loose woman..no! they were very political.which was unheard of bands at the time. Metalpriest is bang on...the album " TRUST" is a must! a superb album great guitar work by Nono Krief. I also own 2 more TRUST albums these were sung in English "Repression" and "Savage" . Great band.

Re: Trust

I had both versions myself ..alas no more ..see my post on the rights and wrongs of fileshare for the full story

Trust are a great band ..they played Reading one year and did 80% of the set in English ..ask most UK rock bands to play a festival in france and sing in the native language ....

Once again a great band lost in the mediocrity of the vast majority of rock bands

Re: Trust

I like it when bands sing in their own language, so many talented bands do a creditable job in English for commercial appeal, but there is something special when they return to their own language and play their music too.

Thanks for the new thread PJC.

Re: Trust

TRUST were ok i liked them

I had several of there early 1980s cds (French imports) and actually played them quite a lot although a strange experience listening to songs with French lyrics

Obviously influenced by AC/DC

 

[LOU/REALM]

Dug out and played an old TRUST album the other day.....time for another thread bump on this great French Metal band.
