 | | Unrest and Stereolab, two rock bands whose shared tour brought them to the Grand on Tuesday night, are connoisseurs and virtuosos of the drone, but only rarely do they sound similar. |
 | | Unrest, a trio led by Mark E. Robinson, is a stripped-down guitar band, whose drones in fast songs usually come from a single strummed chord repeated even when the harmony around it changes; the band also plays slower songs with calm, steadfast bass ostinatos. |
 | | Stereolab, a six-member band, is at once denser and more meditative, building its drones from continuous keyboard notes, strummed guitars and sustained noise, lacing them with the airy "ooh-ooh"s and "da-da-da"s of pop songs past. |
