Ironic as it may seem The Hives have perfected what it means to be a garage rock band. They have been making music for over 30 years.
The Swedish band have hit songs like Tick Tick Boom, Come On and their breakthrough, Hate To Say I Told You So. Their sound is raw, fast and loud. Their presence on stage and energetic performances are one of a kind.
We’re joined by singer Howlin Pelle Almqvist and his brother, lead guitarist; Nicholaus Arson. They join us to talk about the band’s latest record The Hives Forever Forever the Hives. They also get into what it was like to start a band in their teens and what it’s like to still collaborate with the same people all these years later.
