It's slitt your wrist weather in Copenhagen as usual which means there is nothing like some good tunes for releasing those oh so precious endorfines:
 The Hives are back with a new album, apparently first titled something along the lines of "the best album ever" - now just The Black and White Album (still better than single colour albums I guess, I'm looking at you The Beatles and Jay-Z). Tick Tick Boom, the first single of the album, is proably Hives zen. It's garage rock explosions in it's most explicit form and, I cannot stress this enough, must be played at the loudest possible volume:
The Hives - Tick Tick Boom

 Just got around to buying the older Metro Area album the other day. Found at in the bargain bin, and thought I should add it to my collecten. This meant I looked them up on ye old net when I got home, and lo and behold - they are releasing their 7th 12". A smart title choice following classics such as 2, 5 and 6. It's still killer stuff that Morgan Geist and Darshan Jesrani release on their Environ label. New track Read My Mind is the first Metro Area track to feature vocals, which mix surpricingly well with the smooth and always perfect produced Metro sound. It is highly recommendable and definetly worth a long good listen. This is a low quality version of the B-side dub:
