Trust Us is the seventh full-length studio album by the Norwegian rock-band Motorpsycho.

The tracks "Ozone" and "Hey, Jane" were also released as EPs. The song "Vortex surfer" was in 1999 selected by the NRK P3 radio-station as the "song of the millennium", and was played continuously for 24 hours on December 31.

The cover-art was, as usual, made by Kim Hiorthøy, who also directed the promo-videos for the two EPs.
