Howlin' Pelle Almqvist from the Hives is here to discuss The Hives Forever Forever the Hives, living in Sweden, whether or not the band’s substantive, outspoken lyrics get enough attention, the eerily cyclical nature of western civilization, reflecting upon being in a band for 30 odd years, another artistic outlet he has but has never really talked about before, recording fidelity and punk rock, the Bon Scott era of AC/DC, working with Beastie Boys’ Mike D who produced this album, future plans for the Hives, and much more.
