The Hives
Veni Vidi Vicious (Burning Heart)
by Scott Hefflon
Swedish garage punk: Loud, distorted, fast, infectious. Evidently, this is only their second record, surprising cuz it seems I’ve know their name for years… This is pure manic fun, mostly cuz they don’t give a shit if a few notes are missed along the way, it’s all about yipping and yelling ’til all the booze is gone and the sun is peekin’ over the horizon.
