The Reason (2003) Every Man for Himself (2006)

Every Man for Himself is the third album by Hoobastank. It was released on May 16, 2006, and May 8 of the same year in the UK. The first single is "If I Were You". A Limited Edition of "Every Man For Himself" was released in a green color scheme (as opposed to the red one featured here) and, much to the disappointment of Hoobastank fans in the USA, the green limited edition contained no bonus track and was no different from the red edition.

Hoobastank's Limited Edition release of "Every Man for Himself", released in 2006.

The second and third singles off of Every Man for Himself were "Inside of You" and "Born to Lead" respectively. Those who pre-ordered the album from Apple's iTunes Music Store, received a bonus track called "Face the Music." Those who purchased the album in Japan received 2 bonus tracks with their green limited edition CDs titled "Finally Awake" and "Waiting". They also receive a DVD with bonus content. Hoobastank announced the "Every Fan for Himself" tour which was billed as a fan appreciation tour, and to help promote the new album. Bass player Markku Lappalainen does not appear on this album. Even though Josh Moreau isn't on the album either, he is now the official bass player for Hoobastank. Unlike previous Hoobastank albums in the UK, this album will have no singles released from it. The album was leaked onto the Internet on May 2, 2006, two weeks before its official release date. The song "Without a Fight" was featured on the game Elite Beat Agents
