Biography
The Unsatisfied; raw, high energy, rock & roll meets dangerous punk rock with precision. A complete package; a genuine American punk act with so much energy & spectacle on stage it's like being hit by a rock and roll lighting bolt.
Out of the frustrated underground punk culture of the South, comes The Unsatisfied. Front-man Eric Scealf started the group in 1986. Weathering years of personnel issues, equipment breakdowns and the ever changing music business, they are better than ever. They’re like a well-oiled machine that explodes on to the stage in the tradition of The Who, The Cramps, and The Ramones. This is the music your momma warned you about.
This true blood and glitter operation has toured for many years across the southeast and beyond, sharing the stage with such luminaries as the Misfits, Sylvain Sylvain (New York Dolls), Cheetah Chrome (Dead Boys), Dave Brockie Experience (GWAR), The Murder Junkies, Superdrag, Asphalt Blaster, Georgia Satellites, and Nashville Pussy. Even touring multiple times with HBO’s Real Sex most dangerous rock band, The Impotent Sea Snakes. Playing everywhere from the hallowed stage of CBGB’s in New York, to performing at southern skate parks for underage fans, The Unsatisfied always serves up healthy portions of faith and fire for punk rock aficionados.
"Songs the Belt Taught Us" is the newest CD from The Unsatisfied. It was recorded at Revolution Sound with Mike Pack engineering and helping the band produce and finished at Chase Park Transduction in Athens, GA with mixing by David Barbe (Bob Mould, DriveByTruckers) and mastering by Drew Vandenberg (WidespreadPanic, DriveByTruckers). It is slated to be released April 27th 2011.
The Unsatisfied is not your average rock band. They may be hard, but they’re more rhythmic than James Brown and embody the sensuality of Prince. It’s punk rock infused with jazz beats and sexual angst, you owe it to yourself to see The Unsatisfied live. Prepare yourself for the Southern music scene's most whispered dirty secret, The Unsatisfied…
