The Side Effects

About Me

Welcome to The Side Effects:

The alternate universe created by Ben Astrop, Jack Wilson and Justin Scott, in which their musical alter egos run wild, fusing crunching guitar riffs, block-rocking breakbeats, synthetic bass lines, and vivid lyrics to create the infectious soundtrack to life in their parallel world.Explore, and find yourself mesmerised by the heavy hypnotic sound of drums, bass and guitar pulsating in unison; entranced by the disturbing narrative of Jack’s agile vocals; and drawn ever deeper into the dark halo of The Side Effects’ idiosyncratic musical landscape.
