TORONTO August 18, 2024 - Thunder Glove, Canada’s Premier Barbarian Band™, does battle with demonic forces in the group’s new video, “BATTLE OF THE ANCIENTS.”
“Battle of the Ancients” sees the barbarian warriors of Thunder Glove unlocking the key to another dimension through an ancient incantation passed on by the mystical dwarves of Hell Mountain. A temporal vortex ruptures the fabric of time and space, unleashing a torrent of hideous monsters that battle Thunder Glove in an epic showdown for the ages. Watch the video.
“We have slain many heinous foes in glorious battle, but few were as treacherous as those we faced in ‘Battle of the Ancients,’” said Greg Dalgetty, Thunder Glove’s founder and synthesist. “Temporal vortices are known to summon unspeakable monsters, but even we were surprised by the limitless fury of the worthy opponents we vanquished in this new video.”
“Battle of the Ancients” is the first single from Thunder Glove’s fourth album, TEMPORAL VORTEX, available now from Dungeonmaster Records. The album was engineered and mixed by Simon Head, with cover art designed by the inimitable Tony Smerek. The band will appear at conventions in London, Ont., and Toronto this fall before embarking on a three-city tour with the Tijuana Bibles on Halloween.
Thunder Glove combines instro-surf and 8-bit melodies, evoking memories of swords-and-sorcery films of the ’80s and retro video games. John Law of the Niagara Falls Review may have best described Thunder Glove’s signature sound:
“Enter Thunder Glove — four guys dressed as barbarians playing what sounds like the soundtrack to a long-lost Nintendo game from 1987.”
