The eponymous debut album from this California-based quartet, Hoobastank, is likeable, turn-of-the-century modern rock played with little style, but youthful enthusiasm. Nothing here's gonna change the world, but the fact that these guys don't seem inclined toward filling any agenda or catering to a specific audience is promising. It's no-frills rock & roll with occasional power melodies taking charge. [The Japanese edition adds two bonus tracks: "Losing My Grip" and "Critic."] ~ Michael Gallucci, All Music Guide
