Hoobastank released thair latest effort Every Man For Himself this week and it'll be their first offering since the departure of bassist Maarku Lappa-whatever.

Being honest, I'm seriously not loving it after the initial listen. I'll give it a few more goes though, but it just sounds like they have tried to half fill this album with shoddy re-hashes of The Reason.

It gets slightly better the further in you get though, just don't get your hopes up too much.
