Jonas Brothers = Hanson

With the new Jonas Brothers Album released, and the entertainment media focusing on little else, I have spent more time thinking about the Jonas Brothers than I ever thought I would. Why? Because as a product of the 90's, I can't help but find the similarities they share with Hanson.
The most obvious similarity is that both bands consist of three members, all of whom are brothers. Both bands also share a complete lack of creativity when naming their bands, using the simplest technique - their last names. And in the Jonas case, adding the word "brothers." (Quick Note: Hanson started out as the Hanson Brothers) Another similarity is that the hottest band member is the middle child. Joe Jonas and Taylor Hanson not only share their good looks, but also the fact that they are the lead singers, both with frequent backup from the younger brothers, Nick and Zac. Let's not forget the often ignored older brothers, Kevin and Isaac, who both play guitar leads for their respective bands. Both bands have a rock sound, Hanson more grungy. Hanson and the JB'S also capture the style of the era. As I said, Hanson was grunge, and to be honest I don't know what you would call today's fashion, but the JB's have it.
I generally believe that Jonas Brothers will live and die like Hanson. I actually love both bands. They're good!!! But, let's be honest. When was the last time a boy band lasted more than a few years? Nsync? Backstreet Boys? Hanson? I think soon we will add the Jonas Brothers to the list. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Who doesn't go crazy when Bye Bye Bye comes on in the car? And no one denies the hotness of those bands. The JB'S will probably go the Nsync route in that their 1st album did pretty well, the 2nd album will be outrageous, and the 3rd album will be "eh" and maybe a little too sexual for the target audience. Overall, it can be said that the Jonas Brothers are the pop culture reincarnation of Hanson. And Miley Cyrus is the reincarnation of Britney Spears....We can only hope.
