On Sunday night, Sweden's Hives gave the Chicagoans at Metro a chance to get up close and personal, before they shuffle off on Maroon 5 opening duties for most of the remainder of the fall. Fear not, though. Howlin' Pelle and the boys have several more headline gigs tucked into their lengthy itinerary with Adam Levine and his goons. They'll also return to Europe in late November.

The release date of the Hives' forthcoming Pharrell-assisted LP The Black and White Album has been pushed back since we last reported-- it's now coming out October 15 in the UK and November 13 in the U.S.

Dates and more photos ahead.
