Unrest’s Perfect Teeth is a shimmering indie pop artifact, equal parts twee charm and sly sophistication - now glowing brighter than ever in this 30th anniversary edition.

Originally released in 1993, the album captures the band at their most refined, blending jangly guitars with transatlantic cool thanks to production ties with members of Stereolab. It marked a creative peak for the Washington, D.C. trio, folding in elements of lounge, electronic textures, and classic pop songwriting with effortless style.

Tracks like Make Out Club and So Sick glide on breezy melodies and understated hooks, while Light Command and West Coast Love Affair reveal a more intricate, almost cinematic approach to arrangement. There’s a playful elegance throughout, where irony and sincerity blur into something distinctly their own - polished, but never precious.

This 30th anniversary pressing reintroduces Perfect Teeth with renewed clarity, offering a fresh spin on a cult favorite that helped define 90s indie’s softer, smarter side. For collectors, it’s more than nostalgia - it’s a reminder that Unrest were quietly ahead of their time, crafting pop music that still feels impossibly cool decades later.
