Pelle Almqvist tells NME about their "raw as fuck" new album "of 12 singles" 'The Hives Forever Forever The Hives', as well as playing with Arctic Monkeys, and working with QOTSA's Josh Homme and Beastie Boys' Mike D
Fans have dubbed it the "collab of the century"
The track is taken from their most recent album ‘The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons’
“Viagra who? Yeah, we don’t do charities”
"We can't make it more perfect than the original is, so we went the other way instead: ruined it, but made it sound exciting," shared frontman Pelle Almqvist
The recently returned Swedish garage titans put on the dumbest show in town (and that’s a compliment)
The band are nearing the end of their UK/IE tour, soon to stop off in Norwich and London as well
"It was the start of Sweden's success as a musical export nation, and we are the conclusion. So this is sort of a full circle moment"
"As the very first band in the world we have spawned off into several because of the eternal and insatiable demand for Hives shows"
Including tracks by Jessie Ware and The Hives
