The Hives - "Wait a Minute" & "Won't Be Long" live in New York

The Hives anticipated new album Lex Hives is out on June 5, 2012. In celebration, the band is taking over Noisey. Every day this week, Noisey will post exclusive video footage from The Hives performance at Webster Hall Studio on April 26. The buzzed-about underplay at the 300-capacity venue was widely acclaimed, with MTV praising their "Superhuman capacity for consistent excellency," and SPIN anointing Howlin' Pelle Almqvist as "one of the greatest frontmen in rock."

[@Bosha_]

Ninja - 6:35? :)

[@vsgchilangito]

You failed miserably to be funny, because this song actually has lyrics. Go post this on every Electronic music video until you get the love your mom doen´t want to give you.

[@Alia-bc3rc]

Wearing full tuxedo suit, looked super exhausted, yet still can let out some perfect full vocal. Does Pelle got four lungs or something???

[@adam985185]

For having a pretty deep voice (which you can hear in the interviews), Nicholaus can sure hit some damn high notes! Unfortunately, I have to struggle a little to hear Vigilante's voice because either his mic isn't loud enough or it's not plugged in properly. Other than that, a great performance as always.

[@mcyeet4206]

My dude just actually died on stage

[@andriasanchez3381]

He is one of the awesome singers that interact with his fans and uses the whole stage ;)

[@abro2072]

Looked like pelle kinda panicked when arson passed out, brotherly love

[@Wheehehe]

3:21 Arson passes out. Gets some brotherly love. Wakes up.

Good show

[@derry667dingo]

Saw them at the Big Day Out last week. Instant convert! Been trawling TH-cam all week for more of their live performances. They are awesomely insane and insanely awesome!
And to think I was originally bummed when Blur cancelled their spot at the Big Day Out. LOL! Dear Blur, thank you for cancelling and sending The Hives to us instead. (Beady Eye, not so much - many of us wandered off to watch The Lumineers at the other side of the festival when they came on).

[@sarahlikesmusic7347]

That sounds like an awesome concert

[@minifilms1212]

Yeah Hives

[@borg7312]

awesome

[@georgiarobles3426]

I really hate silence and insecurity,insecure people make me feel insecure and they always deceive me :/

[@xpurkyx]

lyrics for the first song anyone?

[@robotrix]

I tried to listen, I can't keep up
What was that you're saying, it was much too fast
You say they're born to lose and we live to win
And when all is said and done, all they do is sin
You say they're lazy and no good and they don't do the things they should
I see your mouth move and sound comes out,
But I can't hear you cause you're fading out
Oh I ain't here to try and spoil your fun and I ain't trying to be a cop
But my head is stuck in the guillotine and the blade is about to drop
Wait a minute now!
So B-B-B-B-Baby wait a minute now
If you want me to understand, cause this is getting out of hand
You say - "These kids they're all insane",
That "they got drugs instead of brains"
"They drink blood at night, yes they do, not every one of them, but a few"
But I ain't here to try and spoil your fun and I ain't trying to be a cop
But my head is stuck in the guillotine and the blade is about to drop
Wait a minute now!
My light's out but you don't stop, more wasted time it was all that I got
No need to worry, no need to fret, come on
You be good, you be gone, understood?
Well come on, wait a minute now!
So hold up you wise up, you wind up, you can't stop,
You don't stop and you won't stop, you won't stop, you don't stop,
You won't wait a minute now
