1. An indie band from Washington DC, Unrest formed in 1985 and were initially made up of Mark Robinson (lead guitar) and Phil Krauth (drums). In this form they experimented with a range of genres, and pinning them down was virtually impossible. However, they didn't gain a great deal of popularity until they were joined by Bridget Cross (bass) in 1990. With Bridget's arrival their sound transformed into a more stable, brit-poppy one - they're often described as being in the shoegazing genre thanks to their unconfrontational, repetitive music.
