Negative Trend's only release is a furious 4-song EP of raw and raunchy punk with a dose of pub-rock that brings to mind T.S.O.L. during their sleazy "Revenge" era. This is also reminiscent of a tougher version of Gun Club's brand of punk-country-blues, with a darker and more masculine vocal presence as opposed to Jeffrey Lee Pierce's flamboyant wailing. Negative Trend most notably spawned San Francisco noise-punk group Flipper, but before disbanding managed to pump out this nihilistic classic.
