I interviewed the man, the myth, and the legend—Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist—about the next chapter for TheHives
When we rehearse, I stay at my parents’, and a lot of other guys did, too—because we don’t live in that city anymore, or town or village or whatever. The only person who lives in Fagersta now is Nicholaus [Arson]. We have a space there. If you’ve seen a Metallica documentary, where there’s a warehouse with a bunch of road cases in it, we got one of them there. It’s an old, defunct shirt factory that we go to. We make records in rehearsal, really.
. We predated the White Stripes and the Strokes by a couple of years. But, the resources were you could afford to buy one album a month, maybe. You had to make it count. And you’d go to the record store in the big city and pick something that looked like it was a good record. We knew what we wanted music to be, but it was hard to find. It was a lot of discovery. We could afford to buy one new rock ‘n’ roll or punk rock album a month, so we listened to that.
PM: I caught that recent video where you got clocked in the head by your own mic while playing, but you kept going with the blood dripping down your face. When you’re in that moment, is the adrenaline just so off the charts that everything beyond the music becomes so circumstantial?that I might have to stop and get stitches. I was like, “That’s gonna fuck up the show and also fuck up the stage outfit, and I only had one of that set.
[Randy] has been really important to us, because we couldn’t have done that ourselves. Obviously, he couldn’t have done it with a different band, I don’t think. It’s a mutual thing, a symbiotic relationship. I don’t know if we can do it without him. We’ll have to see what the future holds. PM: It’s been 11 years since the last Hives album, but you guys were touring for a while after that. At what point does the touring routine become exhausted and the motivation to get in the studio and make another album starts kicking up a notch?Well, like eight years ago. But it just hasn’t worked. It’s pretty intense, touring for a year or two after you put out a record. We play all the fucking time everywhere, two laps around the world.
