Spiritual Cramp w/ Bass Drum Of Death & Fentanyl

Spiritual Cramp heads to Wise Hall, Vancouver, on Tuesday, March 17, 2026. Formed in the mid-2010s around singer Michael Bingham, the San Francisco band works a direct, no-frills strain of punk that leans into post-punk tension and a 90s alternative undertow. Their early EP Mass Hysteria set a tight, punchy template, followed by Television in 2018 and a string of singles that clarified their approach. In 2023 they released a self-titled debut album that distills their palette: brisk rhythms, clipped riffs and lyrics rooted in everyday life, carried by a DIY spirit that keeps everything close to the bone.

Also on the bill, Bass Drum Of Death and Fentanyl push the evening further into guitar-forward territory. The trio of acts lines up a lean, high-energy arc: terse hooks, rough edges, and songs built to land fast without wasting motion. Three ways of saying the same thing differently, with Spiritual Cramp setting the tone and the two guests tightening the screws around them.
