Back in our day, black gloves were only made for motorcycle riders and for getting away with killing Nicole Brown. Vancouver’s Versus the Nothing recently toured Canada in hopes of changing that preconception. Not only can you use black gloves to look tough while standing dick-deep in the river, but you can also create an EP—titled Black Gloves, naturally—around them as well. If you’re a fan of alternative metal, or simply hand coverage in general, catch Versus the Nothing’s welcome-back-from-touring show at the Cobalt next Saturday (December 18).
