    Why would someone like Raekwon, a hip-hop legend, associate himself with Fred Durst, the single worst thing to happen to music in the last 20 years. Wook, I like a lot of people actually liked Limp Bizkit when they first came out, but I learned from my mistakes, why can’t you? Stop covering these fucks and maybe they’ll go away

    Serious…without even the emo tween crowd to cater to I really don’t know what they’re expecting out of this.
    I guess maybe the wiggers and hick-ass ICP crowd. Maybe if we get all of them at one concert we can ask Bin Laden to do us a favor and run a plane into it.

    …and to answer your question Mr. Rasputinmetalguy Fred’s trying to legitimize himself by saying “Hey look Raekwon’s down wit me, maybe I’m not the biggest joke in music.” Sorry Fred you still are. I’ll listen to the album once out of sheer morbid curiousity…

    I wouldn’t go as far as to say Fred Durst is the WORST thing to happen in music in the last 20 years…after all, we’ve had Chad Kroeger, BrokenCYDE, that Kesha or whatever and that “Tik Tok” mess, ugh, just thinking about the last one wants to make my head explode.

I literally just had a 10 minute rant with my bro after I made the post and Nickelback, and Ke$ha (don’t forget the dollar sign…eckkk) were two the names that came up, hilarious. Nickelback and LimpBizkit are like 1 and 1A, and that Ke$ha slut looks like her vagina smells.

    The saddest thing about Fred Durst (for metal fans) is that when he REALLY applies himself, he actually has a pretty damn good scream. And not too shabby a singing voice, either. But most of the time, he chooses to do neither and makes a laughingstock out of himself with his “hip-hop” leanings. In a parallel universe, he might have been a respectable metal star. But no.

  • Ganglor
    Ganglor March 4, 2010 @ 4:39 PM

    How do you people not see the genius behind this? Music is at it’s lowest point it’s ever been (fucking iTunes single generation…don’t get me started) and all of the popular songs now are shallow and reference either fucking total strangers or getting wasted THEN fucking total strangers. This is the perfect time for Limp Bizkit to make a comeback. Now they can finally match wits with other popular artists at the moment. Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water is fucking poetic compared to what slowly drools out of Ke$ha’s orifice (I say orifice because I am not sure which hole that noise comes out of). If Limp Bizkit can crap out another “Nookie” and I assure you they can, they will be on the top of the charts easily. And with the addition of Raekwon and Paul Wall to the album it adds some credibility to the album which will at least get people like you and me to give it a listen (mind you not a purchase)

    And with that said why does this piss you off? I haven’t heard a distorted guitar in years on my local pop station so I am all for Limp Bizkit getting back out there; if anything for the nostalgia factor and in hopes that it will show labels that *cough* rock *cough* music can still sell. Because let me tell you, the frat house guys are still out there and willing to shell out some money for “teh Bizkit”. Just view Limp Bizkit as a jumping off point for other potential rock artists to actually get their shit out there because think about it, would you rather have what music we have out there right now or the Nu-Metal scene of years past. Sign me up for the Nu-Metal years of past please

    Wow…I can’t believe you put that much though into the LB.
    I will agree that some Limp Bizkit is better than most of the popular garbage out there like Brokencyde, Breathe Carolina and the like. But you are still giving them too much credit. You are basically saying you would rather be shot than stabbed and thanking the person who pulled the trigger.

    In all fairness, the band of Limp Bizkit are actually quite talented musicians. It’s just that Fred Durst gets all the hate, so they collectively deem him “Limp Bizkit”. The other 4 members of the band are damn good at what they do.

  • Obi-Juan Valdez
    rasputinmetalguy March 4, 2010 @ 6:33 PM

    @the dude: I completely agree with you 100%. I enjoy the background music, but every time I hear Fred “rap”, I’d rather listen to Vanilla Ice. It does seem like Fred’s rap alias is Limp Bikzit, and the band members are just “the band”. He’s the logo, for fuck’s sake.

  • Aries Veil
    Aries Veil March 4, 2010 @ 8:34 PM

    And seriously..who didn’t love the Ross produced, Casey Chaos backed Vanilla Ice ‘Hard to Swallow’???

    Am I right? Huh guys? Am I?

    On a serious note though, if anyone is going to hate on this album, it’s all the people that got into music because of Limp Bizkit back in the late 90’s and are now in their mid twenties, and are listening to shit like Kings of Leon, and Machester Orchestra. Those people who went through their shitty music phaze, as most of us do at some point, and now have to cringe everytime the new LB single comes on the radio after that Ke$ha and Beyonce single. Those people, those twenty somethings are the ones who are going to shit the hardest on this.

    I remember when ‘Three Dolla Bill’ came out, it was a half decent slab of mid 90’s rap metal, and it was a direct influence on tons of bands at the time. Of course Fred got a big head, and then sat down and wrote the worst album of the 90’s as a sophomore release, but we’ve seen that happen time and time again with all somewhat original and successful artists. I’m not at all defending Fred, but to say that you would take LB over Ke$ha or Nickelback is just like saying you’d take shitty McDonalds coffee, over shitty 7-11 coffee, it just doesn’t make any sense. Either hate it, or love it, or just plain ignore it.

    There is a difference though. With Limp Bizkit you had people who could play instruments, write music, and come up with (while shitty) catchy lyrics. At least back then if these nu-metal bands wanted to make their music they made it themselves while with shit like Ke$ha or Lady Gaga, they find these people who can actually sing (Youtube it!) and dumb them down, write their music, and tell them to dance monkey dance. I prefer the nu-metal scene if anything because it’s a little less depressing than watching these artists being creatively curb stomped by the labels. Also Vanilla Ice’s “The Horny Song” off that album is good, McDonald’s Coffee all of the way, and the last sentence of your post sounds like a LB lyric.

    Limp Bizkit owns fuck haters. It’s been over 10 years and people still rip on them like it’s the thing to do. I’d rather listen to the new album from one of my favorite bands from back in the day then listen to any of the absolute shit that’s put out now.

    Don’t be surprised to hear auto-tune on that album though…I just gotta a strange feeling Fred Durst is gonna sound like a crying robot on some songs. I hope not…but either way I look forward to it. I’m still a Limp Bizkit fan but they have had some shitty songs.

    It’s one or two things their either gonna go with the times and put out.
    something using pro-tools and over produce the shit out of it and make it good or their gonna finally go for the old school sound from 97-99. Either way it’s gonna be better than The Unquestionable Truth or Rage Against The Bizkit.

    I’m glad the band everyone loves to hate is back.

    I applaud wookbus for keeping me updated on this. And obviously the people that hate Limp Bizkit care too because if they didn’t care they wouldn’t have commented on it.

    The response to this news is un-fucking-believable. Not even the news of Adam Lambert joining Slayer as their new lead singer could outdo this one. I have no idea who Paul Wall is. I had the Wu-Tang Clan cd 15 years ago and Raekwon was always my least favorite of the bunch. Him and Ironman or whatever his name was. Who is Kesha and how did it become part of this discussion? The best news of all, actually, is that Kanye West is not making an appearance on the new Bizkit album. I hate that fucker.

    @Ganglor – It was intentional with the last line being a shitty LB style rap. I never said that the band itself wasn’t talented musicians, I mean in comparison to the Pop artists you referenced like Ke$ha and Lady Gaga, they are supremely more talented. The fact of the matter is, I have 10x more respect for Gaga than I do for Durst. At least she’s going out of her way to challenge the preconcieved notions of a Pop Star (ala Madonna/Marilyn Manson). All Durst ever did was wear puffy coats, pretend to get arressted, and lie abotu fucking Britney Spears. He never had one memorable performance other than that of RapeStock, and that only fueled the jock rockers to adore him even more. I would way rather go to a Gaga concert, over a Bizkit concert, even if I might prefer the music of the latter. I don’t want to point out the obvious, but I think making comparisons about Ke$ha and Gaga are like apples and oranges, Gaga can sing, Ke$ha looks like she was picked up on the corner of Hollywood and Vine, with a needle in her arm. She can’t sing, she can’t dance, and worst of all, no one will remember her name in 2 weeks. Gaga on the other hand, is like the female equivelant to Marilyn Manson for the 13 year old girl demographic. She will continue to mature until she gets to be 45 and rocking serious biceps like her idol Madonna. She can also belt it out, and play piano in surpringly non-functioning outfits. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t buy a song/album to save my life, but I do think she’s at least somewhat talented and entertaining. I can’t say the same for Fred Durst.

    also, Lady Gaga is on the exact same level as Fred Durst.

    just because you’re capable of more, doesn’t mean you get the benefit of the doubt for wasting your talent (or we’d all be hailing Trivium right now).

  • Aries Veil
    Aries Veil March 5, 2010 @ 4:43 PM

    I think Gaga’s performances alone are 10x better than anything Fred Durst has done in his entire career. Find me one time were Gaga wasn’t at least somewhat entertaining in her silly outfits and crazy dance numbers. What does Durst do? Jump up and down in his red had? Enough said.

    Ganglor……Last time Limp Bizkit was at the height of their popularity on the pop charts, they brought us Puddle of Mudd. Do I need to say more? Fred Dursts mocks music. Whatever that shit is that he does is no really only appealing to foreigners who don’t understand what he says, shit I don’t understand what he is talking about. The only thing I take away from LB is if a girl fucks you over, beat that bitch, tear the world apart, blame everything besides yourself, and do whatever you can to be a celebrity.
