DR 17
*PRE-ORDER, SHIPS APRIL 21ST*
Only a handful of bands have been abhorred more than No Trend were during their brief tenure on the D.C. hardcore circuit. Founded to bewilder and antagonize the harDCore scene,(which the band felt was guilty of the same conformity that punk intended to rebel against) No Trend crafted an abrasive, dirge-industrial sound impossible to ?slam dance? to. Their first self-released single ?Teen Love? is a prime document of the band at their most cantankerous, with tracks like ?Cancer? and ?Mass Sterilization Caused By Venereal Disease?. The B-side title track, No Trend?s biggest hit if there ever was one, tells a bizarre pop tale of a budding teenage romance which violently and abruptly ends in a fiery car crash (?he was decapitated in an explosion of flame and glass fragments?). Few bands had a sense of humor as dark as No Trend?s -- but they're not laughing with you, they?re laughing at you.

No trend- You Deserve Your Life LP
DR 18
*PRE-ORDER, SHIPS APRIL 21ST*
In 1983, No Trend booked time at Inner Ear studio to record material for what would become the Teen Love 7?. In this session they also recorded 6 additional songs: some were re-recorded and featured on their first album, Too Many Humans; the rest never saw a release until well after the band was finished. After the recording session the band embarked on their first tour across the U.S., a punishing experience which resulted in drummer Michael Salkind quitting the band. He recounts: ?I received 25 copies of the EP as my divorce settlement, and went on to play in a variety of bands in and around the DC area. None of them ever attained the status of No Trend, nor did I ever lose as much money and dignity.? This record, You Deserve Your Life, contains the earliest recorded iteration of No Trend?s material from their first Inner Ear session, and two live songs never recorded otherwise. This is the first time that this material has been available on vinyl.
