The XXX-rated quartet Hoobastank arrives on this self-titled major-label debut as a nu-metal Weezer, though without anything as cheekily subversive as "Hash Pipe." The similarities lie more in Hoobastank's tight playing and vocal harmonies than in the overblown post-teen lyrics.
I am glad I purchased this album for this is the Hoobastank which is enjoyable to listen to and not a hinderance on one's ears.
Hoobastank isn't the best or most innovative band in the world, but as long as you can accept that, they make a pretty darn good pop-rock song.

 Amazon.co.uk: The Reason: Music: Hoobastank   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
This album is very good and although it may get a bit samey if you listen to it all the way through it still has some impressive songs with solid drumming, bass, great guitar work and a good voice on the vocalist.
However, the nice surprise about Hoobastank is that the lyrical shortcomings and lack of originality are almost completely offset by the hooks and melodies.
Hoobastank need to find their own voice, to step out of the shadow of more illustrious bands, but the sheer strength of songwriting here indicates they can do it, they simply need the courage to put out something less radio friendly and more challenging.

Their band doesn't have a normal name, but the four guys of Hoobastank are normal guys.
Their first album went platinum thanks to the hit singles "Crawling in the Dark" and "Running Away." But with their second album, The Reason, it shows that they're songwriters of uncommon talent, with a broader palette of songs, moods, and emotions than their self-titled debut.
Formed in the mid-1990s in the Los Angeles suburb of Agoura Hills, while the quartet was still in high school, Hoobastank has since grown into a songwriting machine.

I'm not in love with the song, but I like it for what it is. It's almost pure pop, but the rest of the album is more rock-oriented, and like the band's previous release, might not be for everyone but is pretty enjoyable all the way through.
I'm not sure why many rock fans are so down on Hoobastank, it's a little poppier and more accessible to the mainstream than a lot of bands but they still put together a good rock song.
Hoobastank's second studio release is exactly what anyone expects from any band; an expansion of their sound, while still sounding like themselves.

The third release from the post-grunge outfit Hoobastank builds on the band's previous strengths, combining a penchant for punchy hard rock with hooky accessibility.
"Inside of You" alternates a slinky, riff-centered verse with an MTV-ready chorus, while the album's lead-off single, "If I Were You," shows Hoobastank in expansive power-ballad mode.
While the band won't win any prizes for originality, Hoobastank keep a steady holding pattern on EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF, an achievement that should please fans of the band's commercially oriented heavy rock.
