Frontman Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist is a wild-eyed ringleader, whipping crowds into frenzy with relentless charisma and razor wit. Since the late ’90s, they’ve delivered explosive anthems like “Hate to Say I Told You So,” proving themselves masters of adrenaline-fueled rock and roll. The Hives don’t just play shows—they unleash electrifying, unforgettable spectacles.
