The Hives

Hate To Say I told You So

Label: Burning Heart Release Date: 05/12/2000

DiSvsMatt by Mat Hocking December 5th, 2000

Taken from the album “Veni Vidi Vicious” The Hives have served up a rather tasty single of straightforward raw punk’n’roll ala New Bomb Turks & Zeke. Although not as energetic as Zeke & possessing little of the fervent intensity that drives New Bomb Turks, the sharply dressed Hives have added a touch of suavity to this style and from the look of the retro artwork there’s more than a few nods to the mod bands of the 60s.

This is for all the closet punkers with class.
