    They are like og (I know everyone says this) keeping rock n roll alive. Their shows always sell out, they still bring the energy, their videos are always interesting and inventive. I remember the big rivalry was The Hives, The Strokes and The Vines. I remember that peaked at the Vmas when they did a "battle of the bands" I'd never checked out The Vines albums past "Highly Evolved" , The Hives always had my ear more, if they have a new album, I'm getting it because you know like a Motorhead or Ac/dc album there will be plenty of tasty riffs and witty lyrics.

    Pretty sure the BIG rivalry was between The Hives and The Cardigans - with The Hives stealing money from The Cardigans and going to court.

    I know I am reading into too much... they've never claimed to be a political band ..AND their new album is called "The Hives Forever Forever The Hives" and the album cover is them dressed as kings...you'd have to be crazy not to see the parallels.
