The Hives don't want to change the world. They just want to shake things up a bit. And what better way than with raw rock `n' roll that pulls no punches.
Hailing from Fagersta, Sweden (pop.12,000), the Hives - singer Howlin' Pelle Almqvist, guitarists Nicholaus Arson and Vigilante Carlstroem, bassist Dr. Matt Destruction and drummer Chris Dangerous - are the undisputed goofballs of the neo-garage movement.
