Reception

[edit]
  • "Among the acts signed to Restless are Fear, Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper, Dead Milkmen, John Trubee and others. For a taste of what Restless is all about the label has released a compilation of its artists called 'Restless Variations'" (Los Angeles Daily News, 1986) [2]
  • "Enigma Records, which is negotiating with a major record company for a new distribution deal, has started a new label Restless Records. The new label will be the home for such artists as Mojo Nixon, the Dead Milkmen, John Trubee and the 28th Day who'll all be on hand Wednesday at Raji's in Hollywood for a coming out concert celebrating a new compilation album 'The Restless Variations' which is also due out this week." (Patrick Goldstein, Los Angeles Times. 1986) [1]
  • "The styles on Restless Variations range from the hardcore crunch of Fear's 'More Beer' to the more ethereal and psychedelic musings of 28th Day's 'Dead Sinner'. " (Los Angeles Daily News, 1986) [3]
