The Hives Announce New Album, Share ‘Enough Enough’
The Hives aren’t making us wait another decade for a new album! The band have announced their new record, The Hives Forever Forever The Hives, out August 29th via Play It Again Sam. They also shared new lead single “Enough Enough.”
Pelle Gunnerfeldt and Beastie Boys’ Mike D co-produced the band’s seventh album. Comprised of 13 tracks, the album was recorded at two studios in Stockholm: ABBA member Benny Andersson’s Riksmixningsverket and a separate facility used by Yung Lean and the YEAR0001 label.
“This message is to inform you that International Rock Sensation The Hives, the best live band on the planet and still your new favourite band, lauded on all continents for their masterful skill and reckless abandon in the rock music field, have once again, sooner than you expected, created a new body of work the likes of which have never been heard or indeed probably will again,” says The Hives.
“A new record so full of energy, joy, anger and life that you will be questioning reality as you have known it. They finally did it. Every single song a single, every single single a hit, every hit a direct hit in the face of the man.”
