Really happy this got a review, good job.

Glad they didn't stay "experimental" like on their last album.

It is bananas that these guys can put out an album now that is just as top-shelf as their first breakthrough album. Work ethic/skill level: Swedish. 1000 Answers, My Time Is Coming, Take Back the Toys, Spectacles, If I Had A Cent...all on one album? That should cost, like, a baby. More than one babies.

Despite their brilliance The Hives releasing schedule sometimes makes me wish it was the early sixties, where rock’n’roll albums we’re cut hard and fast.


Don't agree with this. If they did release an album each half year or so, it would become old very fast.



Also, this point is where your review starts to slip tbh. It was fine until that paragraph, but after that I lost interest.

I can't wait to pick this up when it drops next week. Anyone who says the band sucks just needs to see them live...

Haha, yeah. Too bad he doesn't go all over the top anymore.

and the fact that there aren't catchy songs like 'Hate To Say I Told You So' & 'Walk Idiot Walk' maybe it needs a few more listens.

newjunk, single is a poor representation. Listen to Take Back The Toys, Wait A Minute, and 1000 Answers.

This album is just so damn good. Welcome back, Hives.
