The Hives

In the live medley from October 20, 2006, recorded in Stockholm, The Hives were riding the high of their successful album, 'Tyrannosaurus Hives,' released in 2004. This album solidified their reputation with its high-octane energy and catchy riffs, showcasing a blend of garage rock and punk sensibilities that resonated with fans. During this performance, the band was clearly at the height of their dynamic stage presence, as they powered through a mix of their hits and covers. An interesting tidbit is that by this time, The Hives had been touring extensively, honing their live act. Their stage antics matched the rawness of their music, creating an exhilarating atmosphere. Notably, the cover of Outkast's 'Hey Ya!' highlights their eclectic taste and ability to draw from different genres, adding to the excitement of this televised performance.
