to keep himself interested". Nevertheless, he concludes that at its best, Trust showcased Costello "at his most darkly dramatic" and the Attractions "at their most restrained yet widescreen". Costello himself has reversed his views on Trust in subsequent decades, writing in the 2003 reissue liner notes: In 2000, Trust was voted number 708 in the third edition of writer Colin Larkin's book All Time Top 1000 Albums (2000). In lists ranking Costello's albums from worst to best, Trust has consistently ranked high. In 2021, writers for Stereogum placed it at number five, deeming it a "sophisticated and varied" work that represented "yet another high watermark" for the artist. They additionally described it as "a dark and brooding masterpiece that would serve as the final chapter to the artist's remarkable first act." A year later, writing for Spin magazine, Al Shipley placed it at number eight, arguing that it stands with This Year's Model as the best showcase for the Attractions at their best. The same year, Michael Gallucci also placed it at number eight in Ultimate Classic Rock, calling it one of Costello's most cohesive works. Additionally, Paste magazine deemed it the 25th best album of the 1980s in 2020. Reissues Trust was first released on CD through Columbia and Demon Records in January 1986.
