As an independent label, Trouble in Mind prides itself on providing a platform for emerging artists to share their unique voices with the world. The label's commitment to nurturing talent has resulted in numerous critically acclaimed releases and collaborations.

Negative Houses is FACS' debut recording; an abstraction of their former outfit, even more minimal and bare than what came before. Negative Houses approaches the stark, gothy post-punk previously perfected more rhythmically and abstract than in Disappears, with Leger's motorik, machine-like drumming taking the forefront (see the tunes Skylarking and Others) and van Herik's guitar alternating between slashes of dissonant ambience and percussive accent. Case switches from guitar to bass in FACS, adding an economical throb to the band's drive on songs like Just a Mirror and the album's centerpiece, the near nine-minute, sax-soaked tour-de-force Houses Breathing, whose electric heartbeat lumbers forward, sounding like an outtake from Cold Storage Studios circa 1979. For fans of Explosions In the Sky, Disappears, This Heat, PIL, Oneida and Can.
