Unrest
Extremism . . . comp Songs
1985
I’m not sure if this was “officially” released as a cassette on Teen Beat, but I believe this is the unreleased 1986 demo. It was on a cassette with a few other demos from other bands that I got years ago. No idea on a track list, but I did recognize this Minor Threat cover. (If anyone has any more info about this, I will update this post.)
Update: Thanks to Endwar for the info on these tracks.
Set List:
1. Time (Moran) (3:09)
2. Happy Song (Robinson) (2:37)
3. Laughter (Robinson) (3:55)
4. Lady Chatterly (Unrest) (1:32)
5. Picnic At Hanging Rock (1:31)
6. Straight Edge (M. Threat) (0:38)

I don’t think there was ever an Unrest demo.
This sounds like Teenbeat no.1 – the EXTREMISM compilation cassette from 1985
which has Unrest doing an improv-ed version of Minor Threat’s ‘Straight Edge’.
Mark,
I A/B’d this and it is in fact the 6 Unrest tracks from the Extremism . . . comp (TeenBeat 1), available on CDR from the label along with tracks from Clarence and Fred & Ginger (also with Unrest members) and more from other artists. Here’s the setlist:
