Hoobastank formed in 1994 in Agoura Hills, California. Vocalist Douglas Robb met guitarist Daniel Estrin at a battle of the bands held at the local high school. Both of their bands were performing, and after both bands had broken up, they decided to team up. Bassist Markku Lappalainen knew Daniel Estrin from his previous band and was called up with the opportunity to join their band. Drummer Chris Hesse was found when the members placed an ad in a local music magazine. He replied, and Hoobastank was born. The band gained prominence in the early 2000s with hits like "Crawling in the Dark" and "The Reason". They've released six studio albums, including their self-titled debut in 2001 and The Reason in 2003.
