The Black and White Album ist das fünfte Studioalbum der schwedischen Alternative-Rock-Band The Hives. Bekannt ist das Album durch die Songs Tick Tick Boom, T.H.E.H.I.V.E.S. und Won't Be Long (Titelsong einer Suzuki-Werbekampagne für Deutschland).

Der Titel des Albums bezieht sich laut dem Leadsänger Pelle Almqvist auf die gegenwärtige Generation der Menschheit, welche sich zunehmend auseinanderlebt. Der Kontrast Black and White (schwarz und weiß), welcher besonders Ausdruck in der einheitlich schwarz-weißen Kleidung der Band findet, soll die Gefahr einer uneinheitlichen Welt unterstreichen. Die Band glaubt fest an die zukünftige Vereinigung und Vereinheitlichung aller Generationen der Masse. Die Anzüge stellen eine Art Uniform dar, welche die Gleichheit aller darstellen soll.
