"Soulside, also spelled Soul Side, was an American post-hardcore band from the greater Washington, D.C. area. The original name of the band was Lunchmeat which was formed by high school students Bobby Sullivan, Chris Thomson, Scott McCloud and Alexis Fleisig in 1985. Lunchmeat played their last show under that name on August 29 of the same year as the group went on hiatus while the members went to college.
The next summer the band reunited under the name Soulside recording an album at Inner Ear with Ian MacKaye, Don Zientara, and Eli Janney. The album was the second release on Sammich Records. At the end of the summer, the band again went on hiatus as the members went back to college except for Thomson who had decided not return to college and formed Ignition with Chris Bald. When the band members returned from college in 1987, they had agreed to quit college and dedicate themselves to the band. They recruited high school friend Johnny Temple to replace Thomson on bass. In 1987, the band returned to Inner Ear studios with Ian MacKaye to record their second album, Trigger, for Dischord Records. The band toured throughout the U.S." - (en.wikipedia.org 09.07.2021)
