This East Vancouver gathering place began as Gymbodian Hall, opening in 1926, before the WISE societies purchased it in 1963. Concerts and community events now share that long social history. A neighbourhood hall with a musical life beyond any single scene.
ON THE BILL
Exhumed
death metal / grindcore / goregrind / brutal death metal
Exhumed’s catalogue makes its intentions fairly clear: Gore Metal and Death Revenge sit among the band’s releases on Relapse. Their death-metal vocabulary keeps horror and grind close at hand.
