it?
The revival of

be traced to the
release of the

Patti Smith
In the 1980s, another
garage rock revival
saw a number of
bands linked to the
underground music
scene earnestly trying
to replicate the
sound, style, and look
of the '60s garage
bands, including The
Chesterfield Kings,
The Fuzztones and
The Lyres. This trend
In the early 2000s, a
garage rock or post-punk
revival achieved the airplay
and commercial success
that had eluded garage
rock bands of the past. This
was led by four bands: The
Strokes of New York City,
The Hives, of Fagersta,
Sweden, The Vines of
Sydney, Australia, and The
White Stripes from Detroit,
Michigan, christened by the The Vines
media as the "The" bands,
or "The saviours of rock 'n'

Jack and Meg White
relationship
During the early phase of their
career, Jack and Meg White
provided various descriptions of
their relationship. In many early
interviews, Jack claimed that he
and Meg were siblings; this claim
was widely believed and repeated
despite rumors that they were, or
had been, husband and wife. In
2001, proof of their 1996 marriage
emerged, yet they continued to
insist publicly that they were
brother and sister. The couple
were divorced in March 2000 just

Wardrobe
The Hives are noted for wearing matching
suits or outfits, always in nothing but black
and white. However, their clothing has
changed with each album. They wore suits
with ascots for Veni Vidi Vicious, suits with
colonel-styled laces and white spats for
Tyrannosaurus Hives and bandanas and
suspenders for their 2007 hurricane tours.
For their newest album The Black and
White Album, they have gone with
something of a school uniform look, with
black blazers bearing an "H" crest on the
left breast, and striped black and white ties.
As of late September 2008 and near the
end of their "Black and White Tour", The
Hives have changed their wardrobe to
white suits with a striped black tie. Now
they are dressed as what can be described
as a mix between old French soldiers'
uniforms and boy scouts' uniforms.
