Background notes
Archive material and source history
Unrest formed in 1985 in Arlington, Virginia, with Mark Robinson as the frontman. Their sound was hard to pin down, mixing pop structures with noise and avant-garde elements. They put out seven studio albums, starting with 'Imperial f.f.r.r.' in 1988, followed by records like 'Perfect Teeth' and 'Mono'.
Songs like 'Yes, She Is My Skinhead Girl' and 'Stylized Ampersand' show their knack for catchy melodies wrapped in off-kilter arrangements. The band's lineup shifted over time, with Bridget Cross on bass and Phil Krauth on guitar at various points.
Their 1993 single 'Yes, She Is My Skinhead Girl' stirred up accusations of racism, which Robinson addressed by saying it reflected his own experiences.
