The Unseen is an American punk rock band hailing from Hingham, Massachusetts, which has made a significant impact on the punk scene since their formation in 1993. The band, known for its raw energy and socio-political lyrics, was originally called The Extinct, but soon switched to The Unseen, under which they carved their identity in the punk rock genre. With Mark Unseen's distinctive lead vocals, the group's sound encapsulates the spirit of punk rebellion and has been associated with the street punk subgenre, drawing comparison to bands like The Casualties and Rancid.

Their discography includes several albums that have become staples in the punk community, with notable recent releases such as "Explode" (2003), a blistering showcase of their ability to seamlessly combine melody with a ferocious punk backbone; "The Anger and the Truth" (2001), which solidified their place in punk lore with its infectious hooks and incisive commentary on societal issues; "Internal Salvation" (2007), demonstrating a matured sound without sacrificing their signature aggression; "Left That World Behind", an EP released in 2005 that continued to evidence their natural evolution while staying true to their roots; and "State of Discontent" (2005), which features collaborations with legends like Dropkick Murphys' Al Barr, and emits raw power and angst reflective of their impassioned views on life and politics. Through extensive touring and a relentless dedication to their craft, The Unseen have secured their position as a resilient force in the punk rock landscape.
