"The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons" is a well-known pseudo-album by the Swedish rock band, The Hives. While it has been discussed multiple times by the band members in interviews and on their website, no physical or digital evidence of such an album exists. This has led many to conclude that "The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons" is a myth or elaborate hoax perpetuated by the band. The character of Randy Fitzsimmons is ingrained in the lore of The Hives. According to the band members, Randy Fitzsimmons is their manager and songwriter, although there isn't any concrete evidence to prove his existence. Some believe he is an alter ego of the band's guitarist, Niklas Almqvist. "The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons", supposedly their third studio album, therefore, builds on this mystery surrounding the band. Since there's no officially published material or tracklist associated with this album, it's impossible to provide a summary. The Hives have released several albums, but "The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons" remains a fascinating piece of the band's mythology.
