Trust in Few is the debut album of Ocala-based metalcore band We Are Defiance, released on March 29, 2011. Originally set for release on March 15, the release was delayed after a car accident the band had while touring through the US at the beginning of 2011, when lead vocalist Brian Calzini was brought into the hospital.[1] The band announced that Tyler "Telle" Smith of The Word Alive and Danny Worsnop of Asking Alexandria would be featured on one track each. Smith was featured on the track "Not Another Song About You", though Worsnop was pulled off the record by his label Sumerian Records due to the fact the bands' records came out too close together.[2]
The album was produced by ex-A Day to Remember guitarist Tom Denney, who also engineered, mixed and mastered the album at Diamond Studios in Ocala, Florida. The album peaked at 28 on the Billboard Heatseekers.[3]
"To the Moon", "I'm Gonna Bury You Underground Eli" and "Weight of the Sea" were all released as singles prior to the album's release, with a music video shot for "It's Not A Problem Unless You Make It One".
An exclusive cover of B.o.B.'s "Airplanes" featuring Kellin Quinn of Sleeping with Sirens and Tom Denney is available for free download on Twitter.[4]
