Sideborg’s style and performance is not, and never will be for the faint hearted, although the faint of intellect are definitely welcome. They combine the sounds of grunge and nu-metal with a punk attitude and have been described by audience members mostly in nonsensical exclamations of joy.
Be in no doubt that Sideborg can be gratuitously heavy and pull no punches, but this is not a traditional metal experience. Songs are not about inner turmoil, politics or satan, and more lean towards in jokes, tall tales and historical topics.
Often tunes are ended so abruptly it’s jarring, so a helmet and/or neck brace are recommended gigwear!
