Team Trust call themselves art rock, which is somewhat fitting, but if we want to be specific, I’d call them quirk-punk. The Austin trio sounds a bit like Being Dead and your cool, Gen-X brother’s punk demos he recorded at home the summer before they wound-up on tour with Black Flag, opting for a rotisserie of raucous harmony, melting breakdowns, and swaths of minimal instrumentation with syncopated lyrics that sound like they were recorded in a tin can. It’s excellence in weird.

Team Trust releases “Wuggis” today ahead of their debut album Treat Box out later this year. You can see Team Trust at Mohawk tonight with Fifi Knifefight, Modernform, and Skratz.
