This is a perfect example of how every musician should act, BE ACE AND HAVE A BLOODY GOOD TIME

[@alantheo45]

yeah but not being original at all

[@BonhamsBongo]

Go to a Hives gig and come back and tell us you didnt have a FUCKEN GREAT TIME. Then we will listen to you.

[@simonprickett]

Reminds me of how Eagles of Death Metal perform and in a good way.

[@simonprickett]

I was recently able to catch The Hives in San Diego, was fantastic.

[@Packer714]

It's hard to explain how great this is in person.

Sizzling

[@chipinsalsa]

Can't believe I was there. Even though it was only a 30 minute radio session, I think it might be the best live performance I've ever seen.

[@chipinsalsa]

@Mr Spitsworth huh, I remember the room being very electric and sweaty. it was an early afternoon radio set so I expected it to be low energy and it was anything but.

[@captainu.s.a.7980]

Awesome.The Hives are a great band.The thing that is what happened to Dr.Matt Destuction, he just disappeared..??If anyone has any info,on the good,Dr,could you please,inform me through the chat space...😮

[@captainu.s.a.7980]

Man ,everythig is'nt for everybody.Your into culture club.Why,would you go to a Hives concert? ...😮

[@CaneCompany]

The simple fact is, no one who has seen The Hives live will ever forget it.

[@professorpancakes6545]

I just remembered I've seen them live!

[@Goingdowntobeavertown]

I’ve not (yet).

[@MinorScalesMajorFuckups]

The simple fact is, that´s not a fact. Just your hypothesis. People forget a lot of things. Some get degenerative neural diseases and forget their relatives...

[@niclaswenzel8689]

@@MinorScalesMajorFuckups maybe people forget their relatives, but they will never forget the Hives :) They will answer their daughter at their death bed "I don´t know who you are, but I was once at a concert and saw the greatest live band there ever was, and it was beautiful"...

i saw them support arctic monkeys and their performance lives in my head rent free, i literally think about it everyday

[@mikejandrews]

Damn, these guys are amazing live.

[@TheNeverposts]

[@Pikeswrath]

What a front man. What a band. Top shelf. And they're still going strong in 2023. Kudos to the band, and the fans, from Canada. Rock on!

[@captainu.s.a.7980]

Pelle is 1 of top 50 frontman of all time...😮

[@alexives9274]

such a underrated band

[@emposting]

alex ives Underrated? By who?

[@alexives9274]

Emil Magnusson by them who are not in the know.

[@bboying2113]

+alex ives I'm agree and don't know why bands like One direction or the jonas can be more famous than this. This is awesome! Fuck the system men

[@thevillainable]

+bboying2113 I will tell you why. I have heard it from my nieces/nephews/friends kids/etc. They call stuff like this "drug music". All they want to do is...........................................................DANCE.

I honestly think this is the finest video on the whole of KZbin.

[@dudewheresmycat]

This was 101% from beginning to end. Man can they put on a show!

[@JoeSarasa]

I remember the first time they came to Argentina (sadly, they've only came twice) Pelle sida "we are the Maradona's of rock bands". Best line ever delivered by any foreing band here

[@eatmoremusic3650]

Every single one of them is going in 100% and it shows

[@mavericknoone]

The Hives are the first band I've seen with their own, personal maracas-wielding ninja.

[@MattieBennett]

Once of the greatest live bands of all time. #Immaletyoufinish

[@MusclesfromB]

they are kind of a one trick pony though, saw them multiple times live

[@ByteSizeThoughts]

Havent listened to my cd's in almost a decade. Opened the cd wallet today and saw my Hives albums. Man, love these guys. Loved this video.

[@JJONNYREPP]

The Hives - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) 20.1.24 surprised the channel hasn't dug someone out of a hole, real or imagined, to have some anonymous dudes play as the residents intended.... the fucking residents was a band which inhaled the whole of peru....

A tip : watch series at kaldrostream. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

[@angelas9360]

13:32 "....and I can't say that on the radio. DO I LOOK LIKE I CARE?!" F U C K I N G C L A S S I C ROCK 'N ROLL!!!! ❤️

[@vernonwatts4259]

That bit where the mic is chucked back onstage without a missed beat from the band is total rock n roll.

[@TUBEDOUT07]

These should be more popular than they are- so awesome to see Rock N Roll be so fun and joyful

[@toefes]

It's funny how people say the Hives are not original while you can easily identify their sound when you hear a song passing by on the radio. You know what's not original? Our mainstream popular music which copies itself over and over.

[@fry339]

Well. You took the words out of my mouth.

[@DarthEcoli]

Their antics kind of remind me of The Damned, but aside from that, they're pretty original and as you say, identifiable sound of their own.

[@SM-dt1pr]

In any case originality is over-rated. Who cares?

[@TotinosOtherBoy]

I mean this is kinda a copy of Stooges, MC5 and The Damned but ok

[@davidzubiria3783]

No one is entirely original. That is impossible and doesn´t make sense. But they built something strong that you can recognize from all the pieces they take from others. The Stones started doing covers before putting out their own stuff. I think it was better that way. Nowadays some magazines and critics call "genius" to any album that sounds a little weird and that's it. But that makes the bands too loose and awful. I don't think many of the so-called masterpieces of today will be seen with the same eyes in the future. This time will be remembered as the one with the highest number of self-proclaimed geniuses per capita in history.

2019, and I am still bouncing

There is no better front. There is no band that brings more fun. Joyous!

These guys amaze me, every live i see and every song i hear makes me love them eaven mmore, is such a pitty that they are so underrated, they are amazing live and pelle is a hella of a showman live and their music is simply perfect.

2019 y sigo pensando que no he visto una mejor banda de rock contemporáneo en vivo que estos caballeros. Sin luces, sin pirotécnica. Puro rock y cardio.

[@slashmarco100]

Son muy buenos,👏👏👏👏👏

[@SameRulesApply]

Los vi en Barcelona hace unos días después de más de 1 década esperando el momento, y pensé exactamente lo mismo. Sin adornos ni mierdas, solo buena música y 5 tíos dejándose el alma en el escenario. Ya sabía que era un grupo con muy buen directo, pero nada que ver con estar ahí y vivirlo. Me siento realmente afortunado de conocer este grupo y haber podido asistir a uno de sus conciertos ahora que todavía están en su mejor forma.🤘

[@drogain]

Los vi en el 2012 en Lima, y debo decir que es uno de los mejores conciertos que he visto en mi vida, rock puro directo a las venas

Something is wrong with his microphone... at first I thought it is still turned off, but maybe it is too quiet because the others sound much louder... weird o.O

[@feelcarlos]

Jana Hansmann what do you mean with that?

[@davidscargil9145]

She means the Vocals are swimming in the mix and drowning. The vocal sound on Hate to say (my fave) was very poor.

[@sergiolondono6841]

Yeah.. it's the first time I see KEXP failing at this. Such a shame it was with The Hives. Pelle had the mic at his chin sometimes though..
