16 March 2024 - Men I Trust - Organon

Not gonna lie, but when I saw the title of this song, I thought it was a weird Kate Bush cover and was destined for the other blog.  

It's not.  Men I Trust, from Montreal, are nominated for Breakthrough Group of the Year at this year's Juno's, and their music is truly original, reminding me of the Cocteau Twins a bit.  The trio are definitely in the dream pop sphere, bringing a truly great ambient feel.  

This song opens their 2021 album, Untourable Album,  and is truly punctuated by Emmanuelle Proulx's haunting vocals.  The song was written by the band.  It is Emma levitating.


Clearly the title of their album is ironic, because they're touring.  And performing these songs live. Beautifully.  Without levitation.  Here they are opening their set with it and going right into "Serenade of Water" in Barcelona.
