Release
"Don't Trust Me" was released on June 8, 2009 as the lead single for the band's label debut. "Don't Trust Me" is also featured on the game, Tap Tap Revenge for the iPhone OS. It was also used on The Hills and Pretty Little Liars. The official remix features Kid Cudi.
Music video
The official video begins with words being typed on the screen stating "A global virus of catastrophic proportions has attacked the entire male population. Only two male models from Colorado survive... this is their story". The screen shifts to a shot of the band shirtless at a photo shoot. The set resembles that of a hotel. Another photo shoot takes place at a set resembling a high school wrestling match, where they are dressed in neon-colored singlets. The last photo shoot is in the prehistoric era, and the band is dressed as cavemen. The video ends with a shot of a mushroom cloud, and the words "Transmission terminated" are typed onto the screen. The video received a nomination at the MTV Video Music Awards 09 for Best New Artist.
