The track also comes with a fast-moving music video directed by Sean Stout. It features the members decked out in suits, tailing one another through warehouses and car chases across LA to obtain a mysterious suitcase. Toward the end, the pursuit leads to Ian Shelton of Militarie Gun, who gets caught moving a body. It’s a short, fun video, like a far less bloody Reservoir Dogs, that shows that Spiritual Cramp are always thinking about style.
“I’m very cognizant of the way that I present myself because I want to convey a message without having to speak,” vocalist Michael Bingham told AP earlier this year. “I want to step into a room and have people look at me and be able to get a read of what I’m about. When our band steps onstage, I want that conversation to be had with the whole crowd.”
Spiritual Cramp arrives Nov. 3 via Blue Gramp Music. Check out the video for “Better Off This Way” below.
