Watch: MIKKEY DEE And JOHN NORUM Pay Tribute To ABBA With 'Thank You For The Music' Cover For Swedish National TV
Nous y sommes, Décembre a commencé et le compte à rebours jusqu'à Noël avec lui !
Et comme tous les ans à cette période, je vais vous proposer de revenir sur les 25 albums qui ont marqué mon année avec un calendrier de l'avent musical !
Et comme je me suis planté hier, on attaque aujourd'hui avec les deux premières cases du calendrier !
Pour le chanteur des Hives, il est impossible de faire des chansons qui soient juste bonnes, il faut être exceptionnels sinon ce serait comme avoir une Ferrari avec des pneus de chiotte.
Pourquoi ça, comment ça ?
All of wich were -🚨 controversial opinion alert 🚨 - past their prime. But they all had new records out they wanted to promote. So they gave us their best and it was a blast.
Now I heard that The Hives released a new record, their first since 2012 and I cannot wait to put it on next.🕺
So I have spun the new #TheHives record "The Death Of Randy Fitzsimmons" one time. It is typical Hives record with some weaknesses as it progresses. But in general: if you like the Hives, you'll like this one as well.
I surely did and will rate it 3,5/5 (good album).
The Hives' website is pretty stylized and badass (the screenshots below don't even do it justice - the scrolling marquee at the bottom of every page is strikingly rad, even on mobile).
I just read their new updated bio page (https://www.thehives.com/biography) about their new album that's out next Friday, 'The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons' (the namesake of which is this mysterious dude who's supposedly written all their songs). It's their first record in 10 years and from the first few songs (a couple of which I've talked about here), wow. Beyond psyched to finally hear the whole thing next week.
I love both the Sonics AND the Hives and I wasn't expecting to find this incredible video from 2015 with members of both bands playing 'Have Love Will Travel' together. EPIC -- LEGENDS 🤯
🎧 "Quick! Somebody call Security! Karlsson in Accounting has gone mad—thinks he's in a garage band—running amok, screaming anti-establishment nonsense on 26!"
▶️ New music from #TheHives: "Countdown to Shutdown"
🎧 #TheHives are one of the best #GarageRock bands ever, and they're from #Sweden. Their live performances are legendary. The Hives remind me of #TheRomantics from the early #80s.
The band have new music on release.
Love their performance of "Hate to Say I Told You So" from 2000. The #video was directed by #HenryMooreSelder.
