Swedish neo-garage rockers who lean heavily on punk.
Formed in Fagersta, Sweden, The Hives were initially a garage rock band. The five-piece released the demo Sounds Like Sushi as well as two EPs (Oh Lord! When? How? and A.K.A. I-D-I-O-T) and their debut studio album Barely Legal during the ’90s.
Comprised of Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist, Nicholaus Arson, Chris Dangerous, Vigilante Carlstroem and Dr. Matt Destruction, their profile skyrocketed in the ’00s. Clad in ever-changing monochrome outfits, they transformed from garage stalwarts to leaders of the post-punk/indie rock revival scene along with bands like The White Stripes and The Strokes.
