I really think this album is my favourite Hives album.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter 30 years of being a band, we\u2019re at the peak of our powers. That doesn\u2019t happen a lot. I\u2019ve studied rock history and it\u2019s super rare.

It got picked so early when the other songs weren\u2019t done, but I really like how it starts: \u2018Everyone\u2019s a little fucking bitch\u2026\u2019 That\u2019s as close to political commentary as you\u2019re gonna get!
