She busted out laughing and said they’re not getting nowhere with that name. A few months later we saw them feature on MTV. We still weren’t into them. Thanks for putting these episodes together!!!

My brother was in rehab in Georgia and my grandmother wanted to visit him from Tennessee so I drove her down. While driving her car I noticed she had the hoobastank album that just came out. I was shocked.. turned out she bought it just for “the reason” she hated the rest. We ended up listening to that damn song 30 times on the way to visit my brother. She dedicated it to him in her own little world. She loved me but REALLY loved my brother. My brother turned out fine and my grandmother is gone but it was a nice memory spending that time with her
Hoobastank means Uber Stank or really good weed. The original bass player was foreign/Scandinavian with an accent and he once told them "I have some Uber Stank." and they were like "What is Hoobastank?".
"Hoobastank" means "Whose Butt Stank?". I met them in Socal back in 95 long before they became popular and were playing small gigs around the area. They told me themselves that's what Hoobastank means.
I don’t care what anyone says. Hoobastank is still amazing, even after The Reason. Every Man for Himself is probably one of my top 3 favorite albums from the band.
Ouch. I didn't expect as much hate as these guys are getting in the comments. Running Away and Crawling in the Dark were great songs. Didn't like The Reason at all. But all hate? Come on.
Hoobastank and Incubus are super cool, I remember listening to them when I was in school, it was a shame that they dropped the saxophone, because I was a saxophone player in school.
Funny seeing all the hate for this band on here. I still listen to all of Hoobastank's Albums Singles are good - sit down and listen to some of the non singles and you might be surprised!
Someone brought up that mike shinoda went to a different high school, but Buffalo news feature on hoobastank mentions him going to the same school here buffalonews.com/article_972bedc0-88f1-5617-86bf-ea99d8eb1be6.html
How dare you insult New Found Glory that way. Check out NFG's guitarist's vocals on the Shai Hulud albums he worked on. Epic shit. I'll always respect that guy for being apart of some of the low-key best hardcore albums of all time.
I had the pleasure of seeing Hoobastank and Incubus back to back at a show once. They are very similar, but they come out of the same scene and have the same influences. That show was one of the most awesome nights of my life. They both kicked ass, large amounts of substances were ingested, and we even had a 20 person hackeysack game, lol. It was awesome.
Chris hesse (drummer) is one helluva producer/engineer he did good friends of mine "get dead"'s most recent release they are killing it on that album. Highly recommend.
Hoobastank is underrated nowadays. Only The Reason still gets massive, but people don't seem to consider listening to their other hits. Those songs gets severely underrated these days, which is weird considering Hoobastank was really popular in the 2000s.
Haha what are the odds I refreshed my feed and you’re doing a video on Hoobastank, after i just commented about them on your P.O.D. video I just watched (that I think you posted 5 or 6 months ago)?

If their name had been used by a band for late 80s Seattle, it probably would have blown up(in a good way). I think they genre of music makes their name just seem goofy.
I have 3 of their albums and are easy listens they have good energy. I also felt they sounded like Incubus but you listen to them they couldnt be further apart.

I first remember seeing the name "Hoobustank" in the liner notes of Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory and Incubus's Make Yourself. I thought "Wow, that's a weird name for a band." About a year later, Crawling in the Dark hit MTV and rock radio and I thought it was pretty good. I think Running Away was good as well.
Why the heck do these guys get so much hate? They have a ton of great material. I caught them live in Manhattan Beach and they put on a great show. I'm an avid Incubus fan, too, but never felt the two were at all similar.
Crawling In The Dark sounded like an Incubus song when it dropped. It would have fit perfectly on Make Yourself. I remember hearing it on the radio and thinking it was Incubus and then seeing the video on 120 minutes and thinking they were an Incubus clone. After hearing other songs, their song developed more.

I don't know if it's been done before, I'm new to the channel, but it would be interesting to do something with the theme... songs that were/are protests and became hits
I listened to them because incubus was my fave band and they didn't have new music at the time. Morning view came out later that year so I was done with them before the reason took off
I bought a pair of B&W speakers off Chris Hesse at his house near Malibu (might have been Topanga) back in 2008. Hung out for a bit and talked speakers/music. The buddy I took with me knew his band and asked him what the name meant - Chris said it was a street in Germany they couldn't read and just made up the word of what they thought it looked like - not sure what the street name was but if you look at how the Germans spell street, it kinda makes sense: straße) He was a chill guy.
They were an amazing ska band. Their first album they don’t make basketball shorts like they used to was GREAT! It was disappointing to see them let the horn section go in order to adopt a more mainstream sound ESPECIALLY because one of the saxophone players was their biggest supporter and was always the one out promoting them at the shows before they were signed. I was a huge fan and they had a huge following and I imagine those other fans have just as little respect for them as I do.
Dude...I know exactly how you feel. Used to see them in the late 90's/early 2000's and they were SOOOO good. As a bassist, Markku was always my focus and he did not disappoint. Educated Fool, Naked Jock Man, Karma Patrol, Can I buy you a drink, Earthsick. Dude got down on slap/funk/jazz, then the major label releases came out. I like how almost anywhere where Markku is mentioned leaving the band it was over creative differences & he was too aggressive a player for the sound direction they were moving towards. He got to write unreal bass parts, then it went to just playing root eighth notes. I can't even imagine how much that bummed him out, to the point where he was no longer contributing a unique & difficult bass sound that was his own but was instead now playing parts that even a beginning bassist could contribute. I would've bailed, too. That scenario would blow. I get you're making money, but you're also abandoning your creative freedom.
They were my counselors at YMCA in Agoura. Their OG album “they sure don’t wear basketball shorts like they used to” was the best version of them. You can only find that album on TH-cam
Not a horrible band but pretty milk toast. Funny enough, when I saw you did a video about Hoobastank I thought I remembered a couple of their songs but quickly realized I was remembering Incubus songs :). Crawling in the Dark is a banger, however I hear no Mr Bungle influence in any of their music I have heard, despite what the band says. As awesome as Mr Bungle is, I dont think any band can be featured in a Mt Dew commercial with Mr Bungle's sound permeating through their music.

To me Hoobastank is discount Incubus.

The comparison is because Incubus helped them out. They all grew up together and Incubus kinda pushed em and let them open for them.

May as well have named the band Dog Shit.
They sold over 20 million albums think they did just fine
@@Truckerkris32 True. I love the album The Reason still today. Like the music, but I thought it was a bad name.
@@Truckerkris32Would’ve been 50 without that name 😄

For(N)ever had some great songs on it!
I like hoobastank wayy more than incubus. The only issue I had with them was how much they changed with their second album, the reason.
I love radio rock/metal bands. I may not buy their albums. But I'll jam to their popular songs and attend the shows.
These guys were not too bad. Better than most of the 90s bands
(Alian ass farm)
I did them earlier in the year
@@rnrtruestories ok that was a really shitty band. I won free tickets to see them , so lame, I left. Bad sound, singer couldn't sing, guitars out of tune. Shit I play better than them. They covered a Michael Jackson song for crist sake
You guys are haters, hoobastank has albums that you can play fully with no bad tracks. They are awesome
