Trends and Revolts is a multinational punk / indie band comprising of musicians with backgrounds in rock, jazz, free improvisation and contemporary classical music. 

The band explores music that is melodic, but also abrasive, fast-paced but also spacious. Catchy but aggressive, beautiful but raucous. With powerful and energetic performances the aim is for upbeat danceable and punky grooves with transitions into immersive and intoxicating waves of sound. 

Through hypnotic and enveloping noise, or arpeggiating chordal and rhythmically intricate passages, the band pushes their songs into more abstract sound-based territories, but always in the context of song forms, which hide within them a soft spot for melody.
