"This Unrest" lives on Tinderbox, the seventh studio album from Siouxsie and the Banshees, released on 21 April 1986 through Wonderland and Polydor at home and Geffen in America. Siouxsie Sioux wrote the words and shares the music credit with Steven Severin and Budgie, and the record was the band's first full-length with new guitarist John Valentine Carruthers, who had contributed just a handful of parts to the 1984 EP The Thorn.

Carruthers handles guitar and keyboards, Severin plays bass and keyboards as well, and Budgie covers drums and percussion under Siouxsie's lead vocal. The band produced it themselves, with Hugh Jones recording and Steve Churchyard mixing, on an album whose sessions first got going at Hansa by the Wall in Berlin in May 1985.
