Shellene Hervieux conducted an interview with guitarist Chris Marchiel of the Arlington, Massachusetts-based instrumental "video game metal" outfit POWERGLOVE — whose music is based off one video game or a series of video games — when the band played in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada on April 6, 2010 as the support act for SONATA ARCTICA. Watch the chat below.

POWERGLOVE is named for the Power Glove, a NES controller accessory. To date, they have released one album, "Metal Kombat for the Mortal Man", and one EP, "Total Pwnage", both of which are on the iTunes Store. POWERGLOVE has also performed at various video game shows. The band is not signed to any record label, and does not record in a professional studio. Instead, they record their music in various locations and mix them in a home studio.
