That song has the best guitar riff(s) I've heard since 2002 if you ask me. The riffs carry the song all by itself, and you don't find that much. The big issue with it is the singer, but anyone who has listened to rock for the past 20 years knows that beggars can't be choosers. Although it gets no love whenever I've shared it 'round the Nets, it's better than any ****ty Foo Fighters song of the same era. Cool beans with the harmonies point, though.

From someone who doesn't like bands like Hoobastank,
