I've just installed unbound on a new machine to avoid bug 1070120.

With /etc/resolv.conf containing only

nameserver 127.0.0.1

I get SERVFAIL for every request.

For instance:

$ host google.com
Host google.com not found: 2(SERVFAIL)

You have to be much more specific and provide at least some
debugging when filing such bug reports.  By doing it this way,
filing a grave bug without any extra info, you just reduce
willingness to deal with your report, basically putting it
to the end of the TODO queue.

Unbound works just fine for me and for lots of other users.
Common issue when it does not work is when your network filters
access to outside DNS services (redirecting port 53 traffic
to local nameservers for example), or filters DNSSEC packets.
There might be other issues in the local network preventing
unbound from working.

Unlike most other "simple" DNS resolvers out there, unbound
is not a stub resolver, it is a full-featured resolver.  And
as such, it requires unrestricted access to all nameservers
worldwide, starting with the root zone.

You can turn on debugging and take a look at the logs.  Or just
take a look at the logs with default debug level - I bet you'll
find out that unbound can't verify DNSSEC.
