What’s not to love about video game metallers Powerglove? The group’s latest release Saturday Morning Apocalypse is a collection of instrumental metal covers of movie and cartoon theme songs. Our favorite cover, though, is of the Batman movie theme. So that’s why we’re so pleased that the new video for the song is as awesome as the cover [...]

We’re almost two weeks away from bringing in a new year. And as 2010 gets closer to ending, every online blog and magazine takes part in a beloved tradition: “favorite albums of the year” lists.
