Toronto punks The Bare Minimum released new single and new video for Spice Girls cover Spice Up Your Life.

An unhinged take on the Spice Girl’s 90s hit, The Bare Minimum add years of cigarettes and cheap coffee to ‘Spice Up Your Life’. Despite layers of distortion and amplifier buzz; the latin-pop skeleton of the original remains intact. With a nostalgia inspired music video, it’s up to the listener to interpret as parody or tribute.

Rising out of the basements and bars of the Toronto punk scene, The Bare Minimum channel but subvert skate-punk into something noisy and new. Raised on CRTC content and DIY punk, The Bare Minimum use huge riffs to break up the tedium of modern music. With 2 LPs and 3 EPs under their belt, The Bare Minimum have shared the stage with Meat Wave, No Fun At All, and Adrenalized. Showcased by Moe Berg, NXNE, CMW, and Pouzza; The Bare Minimum are at home at a basement show or a festival stage.
