The Hives is one of the most consistent bands in terms of quality albums and easily one of the greatest live bands ever
They are one of the only bands where if they never put out another song and just kept doing the same setlist over and over, it would still be worth going to see them because it would be different every time
and they always deliver - video, tv, live - have never seen a dud - a lot in common with The Darkness, in that way.... massive addictive energy & earworm
Just saw them in Glasgow Barrowlands, definitely top 3 live concerts I've ever seen.
Just saw the Hives live supporting Arctic Monkeys and it was one of the best 45mins of live music I've ever witnessed! Amazing band
Same here. I hate to say it but I kinda had more fun during the Hives support than the main Arctic Monkeys set 😅
@XxEvilTiggerxX 😆 yeah I know what you mean. Monkeys were amazing musically, but there was not much crowd interaction and its all a bit serious. Hives were just full throttle! I also had a better time with them and will definitely go and see them again!
Saw the hives at old Trafford supporting AM, thought they were way better than AM. Wouldn’t pay to see AM again, would definitely pay to see The Hives
Ditto to the comments about.. they're my new favourite band, like I said, like I said like I said
Was at Bellahouston park Glasgow yesterday , they were awesome and I’ll definitely go and see them again when they tour Scotland early 2024. So much energy and crowd interaction
"Rock n roll isn' for the faint hearted, it's blood and guts and cable knit jumpers". Quote of the day!
Mosh pit. Nothing like a good mosh...
If cable knit jumpers were easy, everyone would have one.
😂 cable knit jumpers? Kurt Cobain springs to mind! 😂
I've seen The Hives live twice and they're absolutely incredible!
The lead singer was also a host on a swedish Radio/TV show called "Musikhjälpen" - the music help in 2016! They lock themselves in a glass box in the middle of a swedish town for a week and broadcast live 24/7 to raise money for charity with varius guest appearances and live performances. It sounds super weird but it's awesome, and Pelle is such an incredible kind and generous person. Nothing but love for this band!
I've seen them live once, and really wasn't blown away.
I saw them only once in a festival and the energy they brought was out of this world, I remember till this day as one of the best shows I've seen.
That Radio/TV show (Musikhjälpen) was in my hometown (Örebro) that year. Lucky me. I actually gave him his black and white shorts (which I wrote HPA on) that he used on the stationary bike for many miles to collect money for charity 😁😃🙏
And yes...they are truly one of the absolute best livebands on the planet 😍🖤🩶
@@KraljOsovina haha same! Thats awesome!
I went there on my way home from school every day and watched them for a while, such a good time!
@@Whooooooops Awesöme, my fellow Örebroare! 😁🙏
One of the tightest live bands that you will ever see. They are phenomenally good. I’m so glad to finally hear new material from them and for it to be such a banger.
Gotta love the fact they never abandoned the "lore" behind the band. I would love if that storyline have it turn out that "Randy Fitzsimmons" had been the good Dr. Matt Destruction all along. As at this point it's not really likely he'll ever be back regularly, but it would be a nice way of having him remain an integral part of the band.
The new album is an absolute banger start to end!
Remember mixing them live when their first album was released. Completely blown away since day one. They have some magic tracks in the trunk.
This brings me back 20 years!
The Hives, The Darkness, Turbonegro, The Ark, Young Heart Attack!
Man, what a time to be alive that was!!
New Bomb Turks, Hellacopters, Gluecifer, Zeke - what a time to be young and stupid.
THE MARS VOLTA. What a time.
Saw them about 15 or more years ago. Hands down, the BEST live band I've ever seen....and I've seen damn near everyone I wanted to live.
Bloody love the Hives. Seen them live 4 times now, they never disappoint!
They've been my favourite band since I was 11, really hope a ticket comes free so I can see them in Bristol soon!
I was so stoked to see a new Hives song! My buddy thought they wouldn’t ever release a new album, and now I get to sing to him “HATE TO SAY I TOLD YA SO”
Tell that idiot to walk
“ALRIGHT!”
A decade of Tick, Tick, Tick, then finally, BOOM!
😂😂😂
spot on with the RATM reference at intro of song and also the Evil Dead movie. Exactly what I was thinking. Great review, as always
I'm excited, too! They're such a fun band and they've been away for too long. Always had a good time seeing them live and this first song definitely feels like a triumphant return. It's unmistakably the Hives and I can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
The Hives are back, Jack White's two albums last year were insanely good and Ren has become known to us - what a great 12 months of new music 😁
I LOVE THIS REACTION!!! "Go on get the suits on boys!" quote of the day.
hell yeah Garth Merenghi's Darkplace is so underappreciated
…and bits of sick.
Why won't she be mine?
I wish I was more attractive like Dagless!
That deep cut from Justin, a man of class and sophisticated taste!
I beg ya pudding? A Darkplace reference? If Wanton gets wind of this my arse is grass...and he's got a lawnmower.
All the Scandinavian, So-called "Scandi-Rock" bands are great. Turbonegro, Hellacopters, Gluecifer, Hives and Backyard Babies. They are a mix of Garage and punk Bands from rhe 60's and 70's. With that Scandinavian Darkness Spice.
They did my all time favourite Christmas song with Cindy Lauper. Awesome to see them back!
Not only do I thoroughly enjoy your podcasts for the musical education, but your costumes, fashion and wardrobe comments keep me coming back time and time again. Would love to hear you discuss your choices of costumes AND personal wardrobe (pretty sure we have the same Dries sweater).
Side Note : If none of you have ever seen Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, seek it out now. Take the Mighty Boosh, add a pinch of terror and stir in some early Doctor Who effects and you have...Garth Mareghi's (dramatic pause) Darkplace.
AHHH just listened to the theme tune to this... Bright back sooo many memories!
“I know writers who use subtext, and they’re all cowards.” Ooh, quoting niche media tropes...feel like I'm 15 again...
And FINALLY published author as well!
I am not sure if you are getting too big to read your comments or not but I am absolutely loving your content...I am older and my musical upbringing was mostly punk/new wave so it is nice getting exposure to bands like the Hives that I totally missed ! Jenny deserves a raise!
Saw them 2 nights ago in a tiny London venue, they were fantastic - loads of sweat, energy & crowd interaction!
Royal Republic also has a very Hives vibe. Just a great live band.
crazy laughter with out reason always gets me.
garth marenghi's darkplace being mentioned made me smile.
Not just The Hives who are returning to the garage rock reveal this year. The Strokes are also working on a new album.
The strokes suck.
@@TheJaxsonjack The Strokes won a Grammy award for their music.
@@eweng903 I get it. You like what you like. But so what that they won a Grammy? I mean, look at what shit acts are nominated year in and year out?
@@TheJaxsonjack Ozzy Osbourne won the rock album Grammy award in 2023 for Patient Number 9. Ozzy has not been nominated many times for that award before he won it this year.
Yasss! First The Hives come back and now The Strokes are too 😃😃
i picked the wrong time to have avocado and tomato on a bagel, so had to avert my gaze during the clips. Long live Ramones 💗and Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace 📚😂
oh got to love a LOUD GUITARS RECORDING. Sounds like it is all going in the red on the desk. Fab. Love it!!
Dwight Yoakam. Greatest musician actor to ever grace the stage and screen
The Hives live are a revelation. Incredibly fun!
Sounds like you enjoyed it as much as I did. 11 years away and straight back into classic Hives.
OMG! JUSTIN! THANK YOU! THIS SINGLE IS 🔥!
I adore The Hives. The video is fantastic too!
The video is 100% an Evil Dead homage. I absolutely love it ❤
So glad they're back! One of my fave gigs ever is still seeing the hives as a support to the yo yo's in 2001. Played to like 100 people, performing like they were headlining Download! Awesome band
Seeing the hives end of March with the wonderful Bad nerves I last saw with a little band called the darkness. Lord knows how I missed this video
I play music. I’ve played music for 25 years. I’ve been in something like 40 bands.
As long as The Hives are making music, I don’t actually need to make music. Because they do everything I want to do.
Good stuff. Love the garage rock and roll!
I saw the Hives at T in the park around 2001 and still say it was the best live performance I've ever seen. Huge energy and Pelle strutting around swinging his mic was superb! Great tunes back then too.
I would comment, but I’m busy sprinting through the city with a small Swedish coffee cup aloft in front of me, blasting this on a boom box. BRB.
Never heard of The Hives, but if Mr Hawkins likes them, I'll give them a go.
Oh they were big back in the day. They did hate to say I told you so and walk, idiot, walk. Great songs
@@irishwristwatch2487 Oh yeah, I've definitely heard "Hate to say I told you so". That brought back a few memories. I guess I just forgot their name.
Your life will improve inmediately
I'll be improving my life, as well. I did enjoy this sampling.
Start with HATE TO SAY I TOLD YA SO
@justinhawkins you will be glad to know that I saw the hives destroy Madison Square Garden as direct support for… wait for it….. Maroon 5. It was very obvious that the hives had been forbidden to walk on the 30ft thrusts and had almost no use of the lighting truss. So they all wore white and used 4 spots plus a feature light on the drummer. Then the singer jumped off the stage and ran around in front of the thrusts. They were amazing.
That would have been a thing of beauty to watch. What a weird pairing. But was that M5 when you actually heard guitars? So many touring matches were just “oh they’re on the same label so put them together” and it makes no sense. M5 must have been shaking😅
Love that you referenced "Dark Place" shortly after saying "blood, red, coppery tasting liquid"... a line worthy of the author, dreamweaver, shaman (plus actor) himself😂
You and he were… buddies, weren’t you?
I’ve been waiting for this reaction! I’ve listened to this song non stop the past couple of days.
Saw these guys on the 12th and 14th and they were amazing!!!!!!
Saw the Hives a year ago supporting The Offspring and they were amazing.
One of the great live bands! Saw them on their 1st couple of tours in Seattle!
Along with Hanson, The Bronx and The Darkness (of course), The Hives are by far one of the best bands I've ever seen live. How did I miss this release?!
RIGHT!! First MCR came back, and now THE FRIGGIN HIVES MAN.
I saw MCR in Brisbane a few months back, can't wait for The Hives to announce a gig here! NEXT, THE DARKNESS!?!?!
Now that I'm in my 30's and missed all you guys when I was younger I'm absolutely frigging making them this time!
BOGUS OPERANDI Is quite possibly one of their best songs yet!
Yes I love the hives! Instantly takes me back to high school every time I hear their music
Great live band. Still recovering from seeing them and Foo Fighters at Fenway in Boston.
This is awesome. I love the Hives so much! I am just going to sit here and bask in the glow of the likely misplaced idea that I may have influenced your prrrrroducer to cover this song.
Love The Hives. I saw them live at Leeds Festival around 20 years ago. They were absolutely brilliant! Nice to see they've still got the energy. Looking forward to this new album.
I thought you were saying "YES" is back, and I was like, cool.
Whether it’s The Darkness or this podcast, you’re a godsend, Justin!
The hives and scar symmetry both coming out with new albums after a decade is good to see.
Lovely knitwear ! 😂They’ve really upped the stakes ! This is in my car on the way to work tomorrow. Stellar work Justin love from South Africa 🇿🇦
We Really need the Hives atm. Sounds awesome.
Never expected to hear Garth Marenghi's darkplace referenced here out of all places.
414,000…🎉..Again!!!!!😊
the hives are a really cool band, I saw them live in a festival around 2012~ 2013, their sound was incredible.
I love the hives ,I wasnt aware they are back with new stuff,this has made my day
The Hives are truly the best rock n roll band ever. When the time machine is invented in the future, the first thing people will want is to go back to the era of the Hives. They will take any way to enjoy the best live performance ever to grace this earth. Don't miss it.
Where are all the time travellers, eh?
Bogus Operandi is such a good name. Great band
It seems the forced period of reflection that was covid has in part given a load of bands time to come out with some awesome tunes. Notably for me - Extreme, King's X, Filter and now the Hives! All with a renewed fire it seems!
This song KILLLLSSS and you got yourself a new subscriber. Fun review
You're clearly thinking of David Bowie in the David Lynch "masterpiece" Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me. He's only in it for about a minute thirty-nine. Should've been in it a lot more. Chris Isaac or Chris Isaak or whatever is in it too as well as Keifer Sutherland. They all should've been in that movie a lot more along with Kyle McGlachlan. Now it sounds like I'm roasting the Twin Peaks cast but they were great in Twin Peaks! I just think if they're going to bother reuniting any of the Twin Peaks cast they should've reunited all of them. But that's a different story.
Pelle has the same name as their producer on Veni Vidi Vicious so there's Howlin' Pelle the singer and Pelle the producer. I guess there are a lot of Pelles in Sweden as I think Dead from Mayhem's real name WAS Pelle.
THE DEATH OF RANDY FITZSIMMONS!!! I love the concept. I love it. The horror violence and backing vocals are perfect as is the oversaturated sound of the song and the ridiculous title and catchphrase. And thanks for drinking tea, guys!!! I bought Veni Vidi Vicious just days before this single was released and I was so happy with it. Even though the songs are all more complex than any Ramones song their attack all throughout the album is still more direct, like a blast between the eyes and clocking in at 28 minutes there's not an ounce of fat on the thing. I love records like that!
Props to Pelle for looking so sick in this video, too! I love the acting. This really does evoke The Evil Dead in the best way. It looks like these guys did their homework. Well done, Hives!!!
The Hives is great, very happy that they're back!!Their World Wide Web - tour was awesome and brilliant idea!! Hopefully I'll finally get to experience them live!! 😎
if you see the hives on the street you better shout “GO ON, GET THE SUITS ON BOYS!!!”
I love the Hives. So much energy in their performances.
Haha you took rage against the machine right out of my mouth 😂 and then I'm getting Offspring vibes! The vid is Evil dead-tastic
🙌
The only time sitting at home on New Years Eve was ok, was when the Hives appeared on Jools Holland's Hootenanny many years ago. Here is hoping they will show up once again in 7 month's time!
The video's inspiration comes from Sam Raimi's Evil Dead. PS: Great to have the Hives back in the airwaves!
Admittedly I’m not really familiar with their music but this is great!!!! If this is what they typically sound like I’m in!
Bogus Operandi... C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon...
Do you know that in French, Pelle means Shovel. There's a pun right there looking at a shovel murdering The Hives
Their new songs kicks ass and the video is great.
The Bowie movie... with the laughter: Wondering if it could be The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976)? Where our hero is trying to fit in, but doesn't have things like laughter down yet? I recently watched it and was glad I did. Starting with his turquoise velvet suit, and going every which way from there, lol. Cheers!
I Really enjoy the darkness and the hives. A tour together would be beautiful.
In Labyrinth as the Goblin King, he makes a joke and chuckles like that, then the goblins are just on pins and needles... Not wanting to upset him... And he stops laughing and says Well?!?! Like LAUGH MFERS! And they loudly burst out fake laughing. I believe that's just before he sings Dance Magic Dance or whatever it's called.
Labyrinth, that's the movie where Bowie does that laugh. 🙂
Glad The Hives are back though, and still delightfully bonkers.
Should be inspirational for any rockers over 40 to come back with such a great riff
We rehearsed right across from The Hives back in 2007, chatted with Pelle now and then, didn't even know it was him til he told me his bands name lol
Saw the hives many many years ago playing somewhere in london , cant remember where , but all i remember from that gig was the support band on the recieving end to a bottle or 2 or in this case thousands, felt bad for them at the time .
That feeling when " Arrival" is belted out before the mighty D come on stage. Still feels the same after 15 + concerts!
Bowie laughs like that in The Labyrinth when he is with the goblins chucking around a baby
I knew it... I knew you were into Dark Place the moment you said Crimson Copper blood and in a previous video you said muscular and compact (expected "like corned beef" after it). Spent the last 20 years quoting that series and no-one ever knows what the feck I'm on about😂😂 Feel heard!
Seeing the hives supporting the arctic monkeys next month, look forward to hearing this live!
"That was just on his way to catering" 😄
ahh The Hives. Always reminds me of playing Runescape using a modem in 2003. Glad they’ve kept their sound!
Great stuff. And talking of new releases from old bands, I'd be interested to hear what Justin makes of the shiny new Damned album, Darkadelic
Darkadelic is fantastic!
I just commented a out the hives on an older video so I must have missed this one. The hives are smacking hard. The singer must have some serious vocal routine to hold up those screams and strains. They look like them are an absolute riot to go see. Will keep an eye on them.
Looking forward too seeing you on the PTL 20th anniversary tour ❤
Justin's smile at 6:09 is everything.
So if Randy Fitzsimmons is now pining for the fjords, who will write their songs in the future and manage the band? I'm actually very worried!
That single rocks hard, feels like we're back in the Tyrannosaurus Hives days !
And there's me reading the headline as about 'Yes'
I really enjoy this. Your dork shit is very cool the way you do it. Meant complimentary of course
I have seen literally hundreds of concerts, and The Hives are the best live band I have ever seen. Period.
(And yeah, I have seen The Darkness. They're great, too. 😁)
The first time I heard Bogus Operandi I thought they were doing a nod to black metal. Just throwing that out there. And as a long time Hives fan I was just like "Where tf is this going?!" Lol
