A noisy, humorous, hardcore-influenced band from Washington, D.C., No Trend debuted on their own label of the same name in 1983 with the four-song EP Teen Love, releasing their first full-length album, Too Many Humans, the following year; both records owed a strong debt to Public Image Ltd. 1985's A Dozen Dead Roses marked the beginning of an association with Lydia Lunch, who appeared on the record and signed No Trend to her Widowspeak label. The EP Heart of Darkness was issued later that year, also featuring a guest spot from Lunch, and a compilation of previous material, When Death Won't Solve Your Problems, appeared in 1986. Lunch's advocacy helped No Trend jump to indie stalwart Touch and Go that year, which issued perhaps the group's best album, Tritonian Nash-Vegas Polyester Complex, which featured a wider range of instrumentation and touches of funk, lounge, and country. - Steve Huey
