The standalone 2019 single "The Stain" saw TR/ST further refining their signature sound, blending gothic undertones with driving, danceable synth-pop. It offered a potent taste of the artist's evolving aesthetic ahead of their third full-length.
- "The Stain" was released on September 19, 2019, by the label House Arrest.
- The single was released in advance of TR/ST's third studio album, 'Destroyer'.
- The release date of "The Stain" fell between the project's second album, 'Joyland' (2014), and 'Destroyer' (2019).
TR/ST is the Toronto-based electronic music project of Robert Alfons. Known for a dark, synth-pop sound, TR/ST emerged from the blog-haus and witch-house scenes of the early 2010s. In 2019, TR/ST was preparing to release their third album, 'Destroyer', which this single would precede.
