Hives of Sickness

Maximum Hives tells the complete and unauthorized story behind the five sharp-dressed mavericks and reveals how they rose from the Swedish punk rock scene of the early 1990s to ‘World’s Favorite Band’ by the turn of the century. A must-have for the Hives collector. Chrome Dreams. 2004.

It’s clear that a lot care goes into the Hives’ seemingly immediate, fired-up sound: this is a band, after all, that has only released three full-length albums in its 11-year lifespan. While the 2002 collection Your New Favourite Band ended up winning the group many more fans thanks to its fortuitous timing with the garage rock revival craze (and also ended up being the band’s most consistent release to date), it didn’t do much to disguise the fact that the Hives hadn’t released a new album since 2000′s Veni Vidi Vicious. Two years later, Tyrannosaurus Hives arrives, and proves that the band isn’t just a fossil from the days when everyone (or critics, at least) thought that the Hives and the other bands lumped in with the rock revival were going to change the face of pop music. It may have taken the Hives awhile to follow up Veni Vidi Vicious, but they didn’t waste any time: Tyrannosaurus Hives is half an hour of highly compressed, high-contrast rock that is far and away the band’s best album. As usual, the band’s motto seems to be “get in, rock hard, get out,” and the album’s opening tracks, “Abra Cadaver” and “Two-Timing Touch and Broken Bones” — which boasts a chord sequence that sounds like a sped-up version of Paul Revere & the Raiders classic antidrug rant “Kicks” — cut right to the chase. But, as with the rest of Tyrannosaurus Hives, these songs are more focused explosions than the nonstop firepower of “Hate to Say I Told You So” and “Main Offender.” While recording the album, the Hives mentioned that they were especially inspired by Kraftwerk. Even though nothing here sounds like “Pocket Calculator” and the band hasn’t forsaken its black-and-white dress code for Teutonic black and red, that band’s influence is indeed all over Tyrannosaurus Hives, most literally on the breakup lament “Love in Plaster,” which borrows a motorik beat and squiggly keyboards. More importantly, though, it’s noticeable in the band’s precise playing throughout the album and particularly on the single “Walk Idiot Walk,” which initially sounds downright subdued compared to the Hives’ previous singles, but eventually reveals itself as just a more elongated and tense deployment of their forces. Fortunately, this tightly engineered sound doesn’t get hamper the band’s energy; if anything, it offers a better platform for Pelle Almqvist’s howling, especially on “No Pun Intended” and “Dead Quote Olympics.” The refinement of the Hives’ sound shows up in other ways, such as the excellent new wave soul rave-up “A Little More for Little You” and “Diabolic Scheme”‘ string-laden wails. Tyrannosaurus Hives might be a little more complex and polished than the Hives’ earlier work, but it’s not overthought at all; even though they’ve evolved, they know how to keep it simple, stupid. Crucially, the band remembers that garage rock is supposed to be catchy as hell as well as cleverly dumb, and even their toughest songs have hooks aplenty: “B Is for Brutus” has wonderfully prickly, re

It wasn’t until Toronto’s Arts & Crafts label released Broken Social Scene’s You Forgot It in People in early summer 2003 that the band’s experimental indie pop caught on in America. A Juno Award for best alternative album and a successful North American tour later, Broken Social Scene issue a delightful collection of B-sides, Bee Hives. Recorded for their friends, the nine-song selection is essentially an album of instrumentals; however, it captures different shades and moods of the band’s thus-far five-year career quite nicely. The twangy banjo licks of “Backyards” were specially recorded as a project for one of Broken Social Scene’s friends in art school. Brendan Canning, Charles Spearin, Kevin Drew, and the wispy vocals of Emily Haines had to have helped their friend earn a top grade, for the dreamy soundscape that is “Backyards” is surely a standout in the band’s catalog. Dressed in a hushing mix of guitars, organs, and synth beats, “hHallmark” and “Ambulance for the Ambience” are two charming tracks recorded in between Feel Good Lost and You Forgot It in People. The listener should sense Broken Social Scene’s earnest approach in experimenting with their lo-fi-induced style of sound throughout Bee Hives; therefore, the distinctive arrangement of each song will be as interesting as each one unfolds. “Time = Cause,” which coincided with the U.K. single for “Stars and Sons,” is a song like that. It explores more of a dark-colored side to the band’s typically glossy pop. Backing vocals are ghostly while strings and electronic rhythms are nearly colorless. That’s not to say Bee Hives is mostly unspirited; there’s a calmer spirit lingering around Broken Social Scene. The lush version of “Lover’s Spit” that’s included on You Forgot It In People is stripped down to just a piano. It hurts so much more, mostly due to the beautifully aching lead vocals from Leslie Feist, but in the way that’s positively affecting. If you want to single out one stunning moment, that’s the one. It cushions Bee Hives for the wonder that it is. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
