Jeff Mentges, one of the band’s founders, seemingly despised the clique that hardcore had become. Jack Anderson (bass) admits that they “did not play hardcore music, but did play hardcore shows. We also taunted punk rockers who were essentially conformists within their own scene.”
The band had a virtual revolving door line-up, which throughout their six years included: Eric Leifert, Brian Nelson (saxophone), Dean Evangelista (guitar), Buck Parr (guitar), James Peachey (drums), and Frank Price (guitar). Frank Price passed away in 1989. One of the original members, he was an integral part of the philosophy that was No Trend.

I wonder if No Trend had any clue that this album was gonna be perfect: word for word, nihilistic/existential idealisms, guitar/bass sounds, maniac drumming, let's not forget that the singer was very unique and the perfect guy to voice these lyrics. This album is a true classic, been listening to it almost every day for well over a year now. No one can touch this album or even come close.

singer's name was Jeff... he was a chill character... one of the fave bands of my youth, such an inspiration...got to see them several times... often with very few people there , go figger!

I'm gonna get hate for saying this but Pornography by The Cure comes close as well, ofcourse way different music style but same nihilistic idealisms and disturbing guitar/bass, also Rudimentary Peni's Death Church !!

Punk in its purest form, no Heavy Metal influences at all. Ugly, visceral, full of hate. Brilliant. Always loved negative, dark, punk bands. Nihilistics, Sick Pleasure, Mentally Ill etc.. Thanks for posting.

It's not punk, it's No Wave. It was a reaction to punk recycling Rock and Rock and Roll tropes. So they went darker.

Tom Sawyer that's why he said "purest form" dude

Tom Sawyer jeff mentges was active in the hardcore punk scene till he got disillusioned.

How can it be punk if it is a reaction to punk? It purposefully distinguishes itself from punk by definition. I know that music genres are subjective and that this could definitely be punk for someone. But he couldn't use my line of reasoning to call it the purest form of punk because the line of reasoning says that it isn't punk at all.
