The Hives are back with “The Death Of Randy Fitzsimmons”, album that showcases their exciting and energetic way of approach towards rock-n-roll. This simple, strong album is full of high-tempo songs with various elements present in all of this band’s works. The playful concept of making the character being fictitious also makes the program interesting to listen to. Some of their songs such as “Bogus Operandi” and “The End” provide for great display of the band’s ability to come up with good melodies and the appropriate rhythm. They have made a playful pop-rock record without stripping out the excitement that an album like this should always have. This is well captured in the video of “The Death Of Randy Fitzsimmons”, which is a tribute to how they never gave up on their passion for music.
