Limp Bizkit And Emmure Frontmen Outdo Each Other With Questionable Tweets
While more than likely tongue in cheek, both Emmure frontman Frankie Palmeri and his inspiration, Limp Bizkit vocalist Fred Durst, made some highly-questionable tweets recently.
Palmeri himself recently tweeted:
“I heard the other day the singer for #LETLIVE say’s the word #NIGGA in a song. I back that fully. I wanna say #NIGGA in a song too : (“
Seemingly implying that he was only messing around, he later followed up with:
“On a real note #LETLIVE was fucking awesome at #ICEJAM was my first time seeing or hearing those dudes. Back it. Reminds me of Faith No More”
Durst however was recently asked by a twitter user “why are you part of YMCMB? stick to rock. That’s when you were good man” to which he replied:
“YMCMB is heavy metal. Rock is dead.”
YMCMB of course refers to Young Money & Cash Money Billionaires — a primarily hip-hop oriented label collective which Limp Bizkit are now a part of following their signing with Cash Money Records.

You killed it, Durst.
Letlive reminds him of Faith No More?! What a fucking idiot. There’s not one band that someone can honestly say reminds them of Faith No More.
Durst/Palmeri 2012
Only thing that reminds me of Faith No More is Faith No More and the occasional song by one of Patton’s 800 other bands.
I honestly hate when people compare some shitty, oddball band to FMN. It’s like when people compare Tool to Pink Floyd…dafuckouttahere!!
letlive. is most certainly not shitty.
I never said Letlive sucked. I wasnt referring to them as the shitty band in question. I love Letlive.
At a stretch, they have tinges of Glassjaw to their sound.
on no you didn’t (finger wag)
Hehe…I thought you’d left Jay.
I did say “at a stretch…”
I’m always lurking, just don’t tell my boss
I agree with Surly. It’s not that I hear Glassjaw or At The Drive-In in their music, its more like I feel the vibe of those bands in Letlive’s music.
ok, downloading…
The beginning of the first song on Fake History sounded like I put on “Arc Arsenal”
HA! I can’t believe you called me out on saying they had a hint of GJ and you haven’t even heard them yet, Jay!
Apparently I’ve been under a rock. This shit is awesome. The fact that Fred and Frankie love it rubs me the wrong way, but two songs in I’m sold.
My favourite track is ‘We, The Pros of Con’.
Any band anyone’s ever said sounded like GlassJAw I hated, I just assumed this would be the same. My logic’s fucked…but I’m ok with it.
I do hear a bit of GJ and ATDI. Absolutely blown away, thanks prp, Surly and Wurst. You know that feeling you get when you hear something for the first time that you know you’ll be listening to forever…
For the record I hear zero FNM
I have to check out Letlive now, sounds like they could be good. Oh, if I want to compare any band to Faith no more it would be Ideamen. They have huge influence from FNM, but Ideamen have their own sound.
This is the only place I can reliably find any sort of real post-hardcore following that I might trust the opinion of…I have never even heard of this band and now I might find another good band for the first time in…..FOREVER….via Emmure/Limp Bizkit tweets (well, and obviously, opinions of people that revere GJ/ATDI/Refused/FNM in the same ways I do)? My mind is blown. I have to check this out..
And the closest thing I hear to FNM in this so far are the vocal inflections and phrasing that people used to compared that Avenged Sevenfold dude to Mike Patton for, EARLY on. Not that I’m saying this band sounds like a7x…
letlive are quite badass
I hear a little Bert McCracken in dudes voice too
I’d say if I had to mash together three artists that this sounds like, it would be The Used, Every Time I Die, and The Receiving End of Sirens. Certainly not FNM/GJ/ATDI, but that’s okay. I’d probably be annoyed if a band sounded like a mashup of three of my favorite bands ever, and it wasn’t my band, heh.
Maybe a black Bert.
Durst/Palmeri 2012
Fuck Romney.
Fuck Obama.
Fuck Paul.

If this comes to fruition, every red-blooded, hard working American man, woman and child will be given the opportunity to own their very own flat brimmed hat, shiny sticker included. Let’s vote, people.
COMMUNITY SERVICE for the win.
These two guys must have graduated magna cum-laude from MIT. What a couple of fucking rocket scientists.
These 2 wigger dipshits both need to have their spines ripped out by the vocalist of Death Grips.
…or have their balls gargled by Clay Aiken and Adam Lambert.
A boy can dream…
That’s what they call a pop culture sexy-fecta
Wow the flat brimmed hat joke sure has longevity around here.
