Perfect Teeth

Released

The final formal Unrest album as such was also the act’s first full turn on 4AD, an appropriate meeting of the minds given Mark Robinson’s own artistic and design goals with the Teen-Beat label. Happily ignoring the alternative rock explosion for their own goals, the trio of Robinson, Bridget Cross and Phil Knauth bowed out with a stellar set of focused, brisk indie-pop, sometimes with spare restraint and sometimes going in a fast giddy rush, as with “Make Out Club” and “Cath Carroll,” an ode to the musician and critic who also featured on the cover art.
