Artist description Adverse Side-FX is a band that definitely lacks an easy description.People have tried to catagorize the music, which ends up all wrong in the end.The band is an ecclectic mix of musical styles such as rock, metal, funk, punk,as well as a progressive sounding edge. The songs are filled with "a little bitextra", such as samples and electronic sounds. Each song tells a story, and has ahard groove to back it up. Some have said that the music reminds them of the great Bay Area band Primus, and there are no arguments there. If you are at all curious... ...have a listen.

Music Style Rock, Funk, Proto-Punk

Musical Influences Metal, Punk, Funk, Hip-Hop
