I'm 74 years old and have seen EVERYBODY. The Hives are by far the greatest live band I have ever seen! Got to meet and photograph them years ago, and they were SUPER nice. Long live the Hives!❤❤❤❤❤

[@maxcapacity7022]

I just turned 50 and decided to open up my mind to some new tunes. Just just discovered these guys. Jesus Christ....what performers. Absolutely fabulous. Already spent $10 on iTunes.

With The Hives we have always believed! :)

They're always a masterclass in stage presence. THE most fun band to watch

[@Foghorn77]

Their roadies have always dressed as ninjas.

[@primitivedogs4638]

Im Swedish, but the one I listen to most of all now, Ren, saw them together with The Arctic Monkeys last summer. So the Hives is a must for Ren Gill fans!

[@bo2web]

Come on !

[@lazylion420]

the energy generated by this band could power most American cities for a year

[@broderdanne]

Wow! I met Pelle this winter standing in line to a bar. I told him I’m a huge fan and that I watched their show on YT at KEXP just the other day. Now they’re playing KEXP again, 11 years later..

[@spooky9053]

thanks for nudging him

[@bigbaldy502]

I'm a 44 year old black man from America & I fuckin luv The Hives they separated themselves from any other rock band since they debuted...❤🤘🏾

[@daverichards9141]

Check out The Strokes and Hot Hot Heat.

[@Sadpanda82]

Fuck yeah brother, I saw them at T in the park 20 years ago. The Hives just do they're own thing, and it's awsome

[@yoshuadavid]

Howlin' Pelle is one of the best front people of all time! So disappointed I missed this, but at least I saw them like 20 years ago

[@Bosch_Bosch]

Me too, but I remember him less … old 😢

[@19Leonidas88]

Everytime I watch Hate to Say I Told You So live, I get goosebumps... what an energy!

[@disseminationnetwork]

Seriously, a great song!

[@susansquire7968]

To be played at my funeral! A must! 😅

[@smokeythebearhug]

Thank you Seattle the Pearl of the Danube and the Cradle of Civilization!

[@davetronious]

i forgot how much I love the Hives. hell yeah

[@inneartefakty]

Let's crash into the weekend with The Hives! Thanks KEXP 🖤

[@Owen_plays_music1049]

The Hives, the only band that sounds the same as +25 Years before if not better. Long life to those guys !

[@otaviu]

I gave my thumbs up even before starting to watch this!

[@InsomniacRocker]

Haven't thought about this band in like 20 years but definitely gonna check out the new album after this awesome performance!

[@Steven-wm9vu]

Cheryl is a treasure.

[@callumcruickshank5236]

Honestly Hate To Say I Told You So just has such a punk rock vibe to it that still gets me after all these years....what a tune!

[@Novotny72]

jesus christ how good is this

[@pantheonvideo]

Taking a bow to "Nobody Does It Better" is a genius move.

[@anthonymichel7949]

Love how these guys seem to be in a kind of urge.

[@matthew_thefallen]

PURE Rock & Roll, Amen!! 😎

[@clarat8168]

I saw them at Primavera Sound São Paulo last year and I was absolutely amazed! They have the best frontman

[@Novotny72]

girl is saying weep with joy at the end and I'm totally in tears. Saw ratm on their first tour in Belfast and this is a similar experience. Genuinely crying with joy listening to this. Just so correct. So right. So just utterly banging. This is proper rock, no kenting about.

[@shawnbray6855]

The rock lives in our hearts, live forever 🤟🏻

[@svtman93]

As a guitar player, I love how they get such a full/percussive sound without using almost any overdrive/distortion at all. As a guitarist who loves playing mostly with overdrive I definitely admire that. Hope I get to see them live one day!

[@BilboBaggins-pi9qm]

There is definitely fuzz in there 👍

[@KevinWieserMusic]

overdrive/distortion would usually cover up the percussive sound

[@curtislarkin]

Well said!

[@eddysandland58]

Powerful Guitars n a Quality Live Band

[@PatrikPatrik1]

In this show they seem to use a fuzz pedal or something that they usually don’t use in bogus operandi I’m no expert but it sort of makes the noise disappear as soon as you stop playing if that makes sense. Still sounds good though

[@michaeljacko1672]

And that is how Rock n Roll is played to complete total perfection

[@m-tetsuo]

Im so happy (for them) that they're comeback is so well received.
