It's been more than two and a half years since Hoobastank released the grammy nominated Every Man for Himself, and in the mean time the band has been making a sizable racket about their next upcoming album, FOR(N)EVER.

"Maybe there is a chip on our shoulder," said singer Doug Robb of the band going into FOR(N)EVER. "Because we have that fire in the belly again. We're ready to do whatever we have to in order to get back to where we want to be. Even if we won't come out and say so."

Uh dude, I think you just came out and said so. And all of that "fire in the belly stuff" is fine, but let's get down to what the fans care about: Does FOR(N)EVER bring what counts: that hooba? That stank? I think fans need look no farther than the half of an infinity sign on the cover of the record to find the answer: Plenty of hooba, tons of stank.
