Side by Side was an American hardcore punk band on Revelation Records.
They were a band from New York that belonged to the youth crew scene. The singer Jules Massey went on to form Alone in a Crowd. Side by Side also consisted of Sammy Siegler on drums, Eric Fink on lead guitar (also in Gorilla Biscuits), Brian Clark on bass and Alex Brown on rhythm guitar. Sammy went on to be in bands such as Youth of Today, Project X, Judge, CIV and others and plays today for a band called Rival Schools. Alex also put out Schizm, a notable magazine, and was in Project X as well before also joining Gorilla Biscuits. Recorded output was limited to a single 7-track 7”, You’re Only Young Once… (1988), which was re-issued featuring 22 tracks in 1997. This 7” was the fifth record Revelation Records released. Although the band was short-lived, their influence has survived until today, as they are a lot of youth crew kids’ favorite band.
