Chris Rest is an American guitarist best known for his work with the punk bands No Use for a Name, Rich Kids on LSD, and Lagwagon.

Rest was a founding member of hardcore punk band[1] Rich Kids on LSD (RKL) when they formed in 1982.

In 1996 Rest formed a band called The Other with RKL's Bomer Manzullo and drummer Boz Rivera.

The line-up fluctuated over the next few years and new material was being written and recorded, however the death of lead singer Sears in 2006[4] ended any plans of a release.

[8] Rest joined No Use for a Name in 2008[9] replacing Dave Nassie and remained a member until their final show following the death of lead singer Tony Sly in 2012.
