STOP!
The Hives finish their world tour and you are invited!
Ok, let me explain. The Hives have now toured the world with the songs from our latest album "The Black and White Album". It took a while. We just got back from Australia where we celebrated the new year on Tasmania and 160+ shows since the release of the album. At last, we thought. Done. Now we can relax. Now we can spend long evenings in front of the fireplace at Hive Manor in peace and quiet planning the next phase of THE PLAN.
But!
Suddenly and surprisingly we were itching to play again. Suddenly we realized that it has been ages since we played smaller clubs. Suddenly we realized that it has been ages since we played in Sweden! We put two and two together with two and came up with…
This:
The Hives' altogether spontaneous Scandinavian tour that marks the official end of the world tour for "The Black and White Album".
22 March Helsinki, Nosturi
24 March - Göteborg, Trädgår'n
25 March - Malmö, KB
26 March - Norrköping, Flygeln

STOPP!
Ok. Låt mig förklara. Vi i the Hives har nu turnerat jorden runt med låtarna från vår senaste skiva the Black and white album. Det har tagit ett tag. Vi kom nyss hem från Australien där vi firade nyår på Tasmanien och avslutade 160 spelningar sen skivan kom ut. Skönt tänkte vi. Färdigt. Nu kan man koppla av. Långa kvällar framför brasan i Hive Manor i lugn och ro planerandes nästa fas i PLANEN.
Trodde vi ja.
Alldeles plötsligt blev vi väldigt spelsugna. Alldeles plötsligt kom vi på att det var länge sedan vi spelade på lite mindre klubbar. Alldeles plötsligt kom vi på att det var länge sedan vi spelade i Sverige! Vi la ihop ett ett ett och ett och kom fram till detta…
Vi ger er:
The Hives alldeles spontana Skandinavienturné som officiellt avslutar jorden runt-turnén för the Black and White album.
22 mars Helsingfors, Nosturi
24 mars - Göteborg, Trädgår'n

The verdict is in...everyone loves the hilariously scrappy "A Christmas Duel." Here's what people are saying:
"The lump-of-coal lyrics set 'A Christmas Duel' apart from everything you'll be hearing between Thanksgiving and New Year's." – Rolling Stone
"This utterly bizarre Christmas collaboration sits at the top of the tree." – Drowned in Sound
"With lyrics like 'I went down on your mother', their Christmas single is perfect for granny's stocking." – The Guardian UK
"The Hives and Cyndi Lauper hear 'ho ho ho' as fightin' words." – Pitchforkmedia.com
Now, you wouldn't want to be the last to be a part of this dirty Christmas cheer would you? Luckily, below are a few places where you can get a hold of this awesome holiday tune by none other than The Hives and Cyndi Lauper. Enjoy!
Sincerely,
