TRUSTCOMPANY’s ‘The Lonely Position Of Neutral’ Receives Its First-Ever Vinyl Release

RUSTcompany’s breakthrough debut album “The Lonely Position Of Neutral” has finally made its way to vinyl for the first time, courtesy of Smartpunk Records. Originally released in July 2002, the album became a defining moment for the early 2000s nü-metal scene, earning gold certification just a few months later and producing the enduring hit single “Downfall.”

Frontman Kevin Palmer reflected on the milestone:

“It’s wild to think that 23 years after its release, ‘The Lonely Position of Neutral’ is finally available on vinyl. This record changed our lives, and we’re beyond thankful that it continues to connect with people all these years later.”

Smartpunk Records label manager Matt Burns also shared his own connection to the record:

“This record, and specifically ‘Downfall,’ created a core memory in my mind from when you’d discover new music on the radio. I remember seeing TRUSTcompany live for the first time and being completely blown away — to work with them over 20 years later on this release is so insane to me!”

This limited vinyl pressing includes 2,000 copies, with 500 exclusive to Smartpunk. Orders are available now through Smartpunkshop.com.
