The new series will also showcase 20-plus years of footage from life on the road, in the studio, and more.

In 2001, the So/Cal alt-rock band’s self-titled release, Hoobastank, launched the band to mainstream success with big singles, including “Crawling In The Dark,” “Running Away” and “Remember Me,” all of which have since been certified RIAA platinum. The band will be releasing the docuseries in parts over the next few weeks, with new episodes dropping every other week.

The band also recently shared a string of tour dates, spanning October to November, beginning in Nashville on October 14 and ending in Cedar Park, Texas, on November 8. The tour will be supported by Alien Ant Farm and Kristopher Roe of The Ataris.

After more than two decades, Hoobastank is still bringing in the attention, clocking in at over 6M monthly listeners on Spotify, and “Crawling In The Dark” has surpassed the 100M streaming mark across DSPs.

The band’s 2003 follow-up studio album, The Reason, took them to bigger heights and solidified Hoobastank as a household name.
