Honestly, if you ignore some of the chord changes in the solo (to say nothing of the solo itself) and tweak the production a wee bit, the Guns 'n' Roses song "Garden of Eden" (off Illusion I) could be a Hives song. Seriously. Give it a listen. It's fuckin' garage rock.

And this is to say nothing of the weird Godrich-esque electro noises that come in at random! Awesome!

It's a good song, and damn, I'd love to cover it, but someone should. I can totally see it being really loose and screamy and good. Plus, it's kind of a Simpsons reference, in advance.
