Somehow, "heavy popular music" is better off now that Limp Bizkit is gone. I still blame them for helping start the emo trend. (pop punk + LB's whinier material = emo).


Fred Durst = biggest musical douchebag in history. Yes, bigger than Kanye.

If Limp Bizkit is serious about improving "heavy popular music", I would recommend that all the members (past and present) commit group suicide on national TV.

Fred Durst is a guy that I would like to hate fark.

FeedTheCollapse: Fred Durst = biggest musical Wentz in history. Yes, bigger than Kanye.

FTFY. Anyway...

I don't know. I'm inclined to agree with you, but Kanye is such a whiny little biatch.

Don't know why you bother; it's all shiat since Roy Orbison died.

AGREES:

(crickets)

really lame. why can't nu-metal just die for good?

/submitted this with a funnier headline.

Wait... What?

I thought a few days ago Wes Borland said under no circumstances was he going to get back together with Limp Bizkit.

Guess the money was too good to pass up or something.

/shame, he's the only talent in the band

Whoa, whoa, whoa! That's a pretty big matzah ball that you're hanging out, there, fella.

When this information gets out into the real world, Kanye's colossal ego will require him to out-douche Durst, followed by a reciprocal action from Fred, and so on into infinity... or until the universe collapses.

It's time to start buying non-perishable footstuffs, my friends. This is going to get ugly.

Pete Wentz still has them all beat. No need to worry.

/you don't get your name synonymous with douche for no reason

Maybe they can put their stamp on the remake of a classic or something.

Limp Bizkit "disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music"

That's ironic because most people are disgusted and bored by Limp Bizkit.

"duuuuuuhhhh"

I just hope music has the good sense to off itself before Durst shows up to "rescue" it.

It's better that way.

TheKingOfMexico: When this information gets out into the real world, Kanye's colossal ego will require him to out-douche Durst, followed by a reciprocal action from Fred, and so on into infinity... or until the universe collapses.

I'm steeling myself from a cease-and-desist letter from Kanye's lawyer type in all caps.

Bondidude: Pete Wentz still has them all beat. No need to worry.



Wentz is certainly a douche, but he's got nothing on Kanye or Durst. Wentz doesn't seem to take himself nearly as seriously as Kanye, nor does he have such a wholly unlikeable personality like Durst. Durst acts like a misogynistic farktard, biatches about the SAME GIRL for 4 or 5 albums, and then covers Behind Blue Eyes while completely missing the irony.



Wentz is synonymous with Douche? I'd say Durstbag sounds more accurate.

Also, separated at birth?

Emo was around a decade before Limp Bizkit, it has it roots in hardcore east coast punk. Emo has more to do with Fugazi than it does Limp Bizkit by far.

eh, we're arguing semantics at this point. The old definition of emo is obsolete. For all intents and purposes LB fits the modern definition of what emo is.

Wow that's ironic, I have been waiting for someone to come along and rescue hard rock musicsince Limp Bizkit showed up and destroyed it in the late 1990s.

This is not what I expected.

I can only hope that this paves the way for the resurgence of Crazytown.

Yep, pretty fast turnaround. I guess he is a good guitarist, but he is a little low on integrity...

By a longshot.

Kanye actually has talent, like him or not. As a person, he is a Douchezilla, and his talent in no way matches his level or arrogance, but he does have some skills and has been responsible for some innovation - something that I can't say about a lot of hip-hop producers and rappers.

As much as I hate Fall Out Boy, Fred Durst is such a douchebag that it almost insults Wentz to put them in the same breath.

Limp Bizkit is bad music for bad people.

That is all.

Bonus note - when I started working in the music business in 2002, an A&R executive made the following statement: "It's Fred Durst's world - we're all just living in it" I died a little bit that day.

How could they ever hope to attain the level of transcendent greatness that was "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water?"

That's like Pink Floyd thinking they could top "Dark Side of the Moon."

Except Limp Bizkit is genius, where Pink Floyd was just okay.

I had developed a good deal of respect for Borland recently. I read a really interesting piece he wrote on circuit-bending.

Shiat, why are you doing this to the world, man?

No, modern emo is shiat like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy and Dashboard Confessional, which is still nothing like Limp Bizkit.

I wish that was the most ludicrous statement that I have heard since, but well... they just keep coming.

You can download the first track of the album on itunes. As expected, it rocks.

First Blink-182 and now Limp Bizkit? Gah.
I'm tempted to load my iPod with decent music and hide under my bed until the nightmare goes away...

oh come one guys, Significant Other is a great one to dust off now and again. total guilty pleasure

I'm not defending Limp Bizkit, but Wes Borland holds whatever talent that band has. That dude is metal, to quote Scott Ian.

I'm looking forward to the Mastodon album, but there's almost 1 must-have album per week for me until then. Probably most excited about the new Buried Inside.

Durst is like a bag full of douchebags.

I havent ever heard them so I check them out on YouTube. They sound good but I could only find live stuff. Any suggestions on albums to check out?

self destruction: I read through that article quickly and am left in a profound state of wtf?

Same here man. I laughed outloud the first time I read that article. I can wait to hear the album, try to figure out the cast of characters, and try to piece to story together. Well that and rock the fark out.

Brann Dailor is my favorite drummer in the world right now. Real excited to hear him tear it up on some new tracks.

A world tour of bar gigs?

That's the only venue that would host a Limp Bizit gig now, and they couldn't even sell out those.

Chronoclast was their most recent album (2005) - only one I have heard (though their previous albums are on my list to acquire). It is absolutely epic - concept album about time, with recurring melodies/passages. Also, one of the best bands I have ever seen live. I only hope the new album lives up to Chronoclast. It comes out March 3rd.

Nice man thanks alot. That song rocks I will definitely pick up that album. Cheers.

If they got themselves a decent DJ and singer, they would be pretty ok. Borland is fun guitarist, and their rhythm section is out cold; just listen to "Rearranged" and pretend that Durstbag isn't singing about how much his life as a huge rock-star sucks.

Complain all you want but I rather listen to them than Nickleback or shiat like that. It would be nice to have a band that emo or high school chicks didn't like. I say come back, everyone thought they were the shiat in the late 90s.

natedog87: everyone thought they were the shiat in the late 90s.

Some people have walls of trophies to indicate their achievements, I have the knowledge that from the beginning, I was against Limp Bizkit and never bought into their garbage. You are a disgrace to the good name of Nate Dogg.
