The Black and White Album is the fourth studio album by Swedish rock band The Hives. The track listing for The Black and White Album was confirmed on the band's German website on 13 September 2007, and later through NME. The Hives recorded 20 to 30 songs (including seven recorded with super producers The Neptunes) for this album from which they finally chose the best. Other tracks were produced by Jacknife Lee and Dennis Herring. Sessions were held with Timbaland, with whom the band produced the song "Throw It On Me", but took place too late for any of the resulting tracks to be on the album. They hoped to use these songs as B-sides.

The band revealed in an NME interview that one song, "Puppet on a String", has just "piano and hand claps".

The song "A Stroll Through Hive Manor Corridors" is an instrumental using just a 1960s organ and a drum machine.

The song "Fall Is Just Something Grownups Invented" was written and was being used for autumn promotions on the US television channel Cartoon Network. This song appears as a bonus track on the United Kingdom version of the album,the iTunes release in the United States and in the Japanese Edition with the album, along with "Hell No".

"Well All Right!" and "T.H.E.H.I.V.E.S." were produced by The Neptunes.

"Try It Again" features the cheerleading squad from the University of Mississippi. It was also featured in a commercial for the film Get Him to the Greek. "Try It Again" was used in an opening scene in the Chuck episode Chuck vs. The Third Dimension. "Try It Again" was part of the promotional trailers for the USA show White Collar. In 2013, it was featured in the movies The Internship and R.I.P.D..
