“Thunder Glove and The Great Octopus have devastated concertgoers across the world on our previous tours, BEASTS VS. BARBARIANS and VANQUISH THE PLANET, but nothing can prepare audiences for our upcoming shows,” said Greg Dalgetty, Thunder Glove’s founder and synthesist. “NEON BEASTS will deliver our most thrilling, outlandish and harrowing performances yet!”

Watch in awe and wonder as the barbarian warriors of Thunder Glove and The Great Octopus, Canada’s one-man synth-sation, lay waste to cities around the globe in an unstoppable torrent of power, might and victory.
