Spider’s musical DNA is a mix of dark-surfy-grit and raw power rock. Their new song, “Tabula Rasa” is a ferociously urgent blast of existential punk accompanied by a lexicon vortex of metaphor fueled vocals. This is Spider’s first new music since their Energy Gone Wrong (EP) released in 2019.
Spider’s tireless “do it yourself” work ethic has enabled them to share the stage with heavy hitters such as Descendents, The Bronx, GBH, Pennywise, The Hives, Fear and Circle Jerks and has earned them spots on some of the biggest music festivals around the world including Riot Fest (US), Punk Rock Bowling Festival (US), It’s Not Dead Fest (US), Rebellion Festival (UK), Back To Future Festival (Germany), Music Tastes Good Festival (US), Punk Rock Holiday Festival (Slovenia), Brakrock Festival (Belgium), Bay Fest (Italy), and The Bash Festival (US).
Spider say “We thrive in a live environment, we live to perform and make sure whoever comes to a show, feels like it’s time well spent.”
Highlighting their collective ear for high energy music, Spider’s sound has also resonated with music supervisors, leading to their song, “Energy Gone Wrong,” being featured in the final season of the hulu tv show Letterkenny (air date December 26, 2023) and various actions sports films such as Powell-Peralta Skateboard Stories Presents: Bucky Lasek and All In Lifestyles.
