| 1 | * AwesomeEgo: Pelle regularly brags about himself and his band on stage, and fans agree with his boasting - in fact, fans often say that the Hives may be the best live band on Earth. |
| 2 | * BrokenBase: Their "Fall Is Just Something That Grown Ups Invented" bumper from late 2000s Creator/CartoonNetwork was either a charming bit with a catchy song or an annoying, juvenile and painful sign that [[NetworkDecay the station was getting way too interested in live-action]]. |
| 3 | * CrazyIsCool: Their road crew dress in black ninja costumes, making them a part of the show. |
| 4 | * EpicRiff: "Main Offender," "Hate To Say I Told You So," "Tick Tick Boom," "Walk Idiot Walk," and probably more. "Two Timing Touch n Broken Bones" includes the rare ''percussive'' example, with Chris, Nicholaus and Vigilante collectively playing different parts of one collective locomotive rhythm with mechanical precision. |
| 5 | * GrowingTheBeard: ''Barely Legal'', their debut from 1997, was ''way'' more punky and unhinged (which is saying something) than their later work. ''Veni Vidi Vicious'' is when they settled into their garage rock groove and crystalized the Hives' sound as we know it today. (They attempted to grow it out even further on ''The Black And White Album,'' but it didn't stick.) |
| 6 | * SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Letting a fan in Sydney play the bass solo to "Hate To Say I Told You So" simply because he asked nicely through a note. The crew even hooked him up with a matching vest and bow tie while Dr. Matt crowd-surfed without a care in the world. |
| 7 | * HilariousInHindsight: [[https://youtu.be/3Y1lXtGi8zc?t=2m24s Apparently, the Hives invented the Mannequin Challenge!]] |
| 8 | * SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: The 2002 ''MTV Video Music Awards'' staged a sort-of Battle Of The Bands between The Hives and Music/TheVines. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ER5UOrfdwsY Judge for yourself,]] but the majority of fans still claim that the Hives won easily. Pelle was in rare form that night. |
| 9 | * SignatureSong: "Hate to Say I Told You So," with "Tick Tick Boom" a very close second. |
| 10 | * SongAssociation: Former Wrestling/{{WWE}} wrestler Wrestling/ChristyHemme had "Walk Idiot Walk" as her entrance theme (which some fans found [[{{Narm}} unintentionally humorous]]). |
