“We are Powerglove and we are here to f*ck with your childhood!” proclaims the band at the beginning of their live shows. After finding success mining the brains of the A.D.D. driven video game generation with songs like 'Tetris', Powerglove have set their sights on the inner child in all of us. To this end, the band has set its blasters from stun to kill; it’s target: the world!
