Hoobastank mistaken for OLP

Post by Kicker774 »

At first I thought WTF?

But I took a listen and the guy actually doesn't sound too far off from Raine. The song itself sounds just a notch harder than OLPs harder stuff.

Maybe it's just because the thought is already put in my head.

Whats does everyone else think?

oh man. When I saw that on there. I did not click on it. I thought to myself OLP have a song called Out Of Control. Maybe they coverd U2..

LOL>. Hooba.. Raine sounds nothing like DOug and DOug sounds nothing like Raine..

Doug(Hooba's singer)..

I actually saw Hoobastank a few times live over the years.

That could be the reason why I thought it was glimmer of a touch close to OLP. :lol:

Slightly pathetic. I've been listening to a lot of Hoobastank lately, too. Can't figure a single track where Doug sounds anything like Raine. Maybe one needs to be trippin' on acid to see the connection?
