Thank you for finally covering real music Fantano
Minus Fred
@@Mxulinwho’s Fred
"You better get some better beats and get some better rhymes"
How ironic
Who's your pfp😮
@@brandonayong5823 Now your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash lol
I love how he said "i reviewed Still Sucks on the main channel" as if he didn't spend the actual video eating a burrito instead of reviewing it lol
That review really pissed me off! Like, ok jokes I get it, but the album was worth discussing and he had given Dad Vibes a good review in the weekly track roundup.
@@biconditionalshe might not meant it this way but i think with that he was kinda saying "it is what u think it is, its like eating junk food, you open a bag of doritos and you know to expect doritos chips in the bag. its not the best for you, but if u enjoy them its good"
or he just ate chips the whole time. im not a big limp bizkit fan but i also liked dad vibes and did look forward to his review. but i just laughed it off.
i kinda stopped watching fantano vids first one iv seen in a bit
I am curious tho, does anyone have any recommendations for music similar to Limp Bizkit but well, better?
@@hrgiderzhs837andhisharem4 Korn and Linkin Park
@@TVindustries5000it's a reference to his Gold Cobra review where he did the same thing 😂
I will forever hear Durst screaming "CHOCOLATE STARFISH!!!" in my head whenever I think of this band. Like a vet with trauma flashbacks.
YEUHHHHH 😂
The same happens to me when I hear that YEAH! I get the thousand mile stare going on.
a veterinarian or a veteran?
Dude I'm the same way but with, "IF ONLY WE COULD FLYYYYYY"
@rarefeline True true I forgot about that one 🤣
Wes Borland wrote some amazing riffs honestly
Great guitarist. He has his own sound.
Definitely underrated
Bro wasted his career
@wadekemmsies7180 did he? Limp bizkit was very successful
@@user-uk4io1ud5b I agree Fred is honestly very smart about his image, promotion, and the guy knows how to work a crowd better than 90% of artists. I don't know if I'd use the term genius myself lol but he definitely knows what he's doing he's not just goofing around
It is really brave of Fantano to do it all for the nookie. We bless 🙏🙏
The what?
The nookie
@@daneom so you could take that cookie

I was an exchange student in the US back in 2001 and after hearing “Rollin” on the radio, I begged my host-mom to drive me to the nearest mall and got “CSHFW” album. I still remember the smell of the booklet which came out of the CD holder. I loved this album so much, I couldn’t sleep whole night and listened to it till batteries of my CD walkman died. I’m still equally ashamed and proud of this.
You've nothing to be ashamed of. That album is fire
@@Wasd3r I think it’s pretty terrible, but in retrospect, it had some fun moments
It was the perfect music for 13 year old boys🤷♂️
Amen @@jamesmiller5331
limp bizkit were annoying shit but every once in awhile all that shit would collide and kind of became exciting.
"Re-Arranged" is legitimately a great song. I'll happily die on this hill.
I'll die with you, brother
woah there fantano you didn't have to put all their albums in the S tier
I can't believe he did that. I agree with him for once.
Wow... to rate em all in the S Tier but just in a specific order... incredibly brave Limpthony Bizkittano
I think what is most disgusting about Chocolate Starfish's cover art is that you can almost smell it if you look at it long enough.
That's so true tho
Wes Borland really knows how to write an ear worm riff and it really sets them apart for me. Amazing artist.
I don’t care what people say, I love the energy they put into their songs and they were all headboppers nonetheless. I love Limp Bizkit
I fucking hate LB but I hate snobs more. Like what you like and own it like you did.
It was their songs with the least energy that I liked. Rearrange, My Way and Behind Blue Eyes are the only songs that remain in my library.
This dude is just a troll. Don't listen to him. LB is a great band.
It's not generally my thing you know but tracks on the first album are cool Rap Rock like Sour and Counterfeit and Trust? from Significant Other bangs so hard. 🙂
LMAO
limp bizkit is a guilty pleasure for me. i know it’s not the best music, but their music is very catchy and self aware enough to make it fun for me still.
Yep some Limp Bizkit songs are very fun and catchy. You just need to turn your brain off and not pay to much attention to the lyrics. Not everything needs to be lyrical.
@@AGrepSTN2M Fred even said that they don't take themselves seriously
It should have been apparent to people when they named the album Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water lol
Same here, I actually like it their Behind Blue Eyes cover too 😭💀
@@kennysdead500that album cover lol horrible
@@kennysdead500I can buy that it started off that way, but Fred himself definitely slipped into self-seriousness at some point along the way.
I love Nu Metal and I'm not ashamed of it
Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park are on top!!
Like what you like my guy
@@KeepTheAngerFlowinghey, don’t group limp bizkit with Linkin park please
@@holylucane9019 They are the King's of Nu metal (both Linkin park and limp Bizkit), Limp Bizkit made the genre they get their credit too. Imagine being a gate keeper.
@@KeepTheAngerFlowing I wouldn’t say that. Korn made nu metal. The kings of nu metal would be Linkin Park, System of a Down, Deftones, and rage against the machine (if you even count them as nu metal, it’s debated). You have to remember limp is a big reason why nu metal is looked back on so badly.
But how are you gonna completely ignore Rearranged like that? It's unironically their best song
SO TRUE
I really just thought he was gonna eat a burrito for 17 minutes
KoRn didn’t age well?! Self title is a verified classic.
I love KoRn so much
issues is also a amazing album by them
I recently relistened to Issues and was pretty impressed with the song writing and hooks.
They have some great songs and records and some meh ones, but everything off the most recent ones is fantastic.
What I'm getting from this review is that Fantano was into NuMetal and is super embarassed about it.
Wes Borland's Guitarwork in Chocolate Flavored starfish was legendary. He's like a mix between the Edge and Adam Jones.
That album was more of a pop album than a rock album.
Brilliant guitarist! He, John, Sam & Lethal made such a great combo
I am curious tho, does anyone have any recommendations for music similar to Limp Bizkit but well, better?
@@hrgiderzhs837andhisharem4 Pleymo... but their lyrics are in french.
@@youknowimright.3137 I am perfectly fine with that, thank you sir.
I saw Limp Bizkit earlier this year. They sold out a stadium. It was big, dumb fun, the riffs were sick and they were really self aware with it.
Florida?
@@boilingboy1 London!
I bet the mosh was unironically sick
@@b3ndavies Haha it was. They ended with Break Stuff and like 1000 people just ran into the pit
@@mattd1659 fuck yeah dude
I’ll be honest, Three Dollar Bill was fire when it came out. In my defense I was 15. And I still like Break Stuff. I had no idea they had more than 3 albums. That’s crazy.
It is still fire.
True though. Hit when I was 17 and just landed perfectly in my wheelhouse. I still think TDBY goes hard af and deserves at least C tier.
do you remember how the cd itself had a guy strapped to a "wheel of death" and if you have the right cd player you could see him spinning around momentarily...
Rearranged is a banger
"when it came out"
Nah, still does
The last tier list he did was Rage Against the Machine.
Now he’s doing Limp Bizkit.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. Thanks Fantano.
cant believe he would review one of the best, most acclaimed and most influential bands ever and also do rage against the machine.
@@icecube7685lol
Fantano PLEASE do a video like this for the Deftones next. I know you haven’t liked their newer releases especially “Ohms” but I would like to hear your thoughts on White Pony, Self titled, And SNW which is in my opinion their best three album run and are some of the best alt metal albums of the 2000’s.
THIS. And honestly, even though I personally think S/T and Gore kind of pale in comparison to the rest of their albums, they haven’t released a bad one. One of the strongest runs in alt-metal history, that’s for sure.
He doesn't like Deftones, it will only trigger people
Around The Fur is better than White Pony
@@MadailinBurnhopehonestly when I try to work this out once and for all I end up having a seizure and blacking out so I guess in my book it's always going to be a tie that I'm unsatisfied with.
@@MadailinBurnhopethey're on an equal level
As someone who grew up with limp bizkit in my teens, Behind Blue Eyes is actually an interesting version and I like it
its great
Agreed. An actually terrible cover is the All Saints cover of Under the Bridge. I'd honestly rather listen to the Puddle of Mudd About a Girl cover knowing at least the latter would give me a good laugh.
i saw Limp Bizkit at the Summer Sanitarium tour in 2003 with Metallica at the LA Coliseum as a teenager. They were definitely on the decline in popularity. When you played the 'Behind Blue Eyes' cover I was immediately taken back to that day. The coliseum sold lemonade and in those lemonade cups were two pieces of a quartered lemon. People started throwing lemons at Fred while he was sorta crowd surfing when they played that cover. wow, what a memory.
I saw them get booed on a show on the same tour. Fred was like "yo Metallica sucks, who cares about them??" He made that a huge part of his set towards the end, and the crowd didn't buy it at all lol. They wanted them gone so bad.
2003 is when i was born. im 20 now. feel old? lol
@@adrist4rmhmmm very much
Saw that same tour in Orlando. Was kinda looking forward to it because they were going to have a long set time and was expecting them to bring out a good catalog. But with a set time of 1 hour and 30 minute, They managed to only play 11 songs. I was disappointed.
I saw LB on that tour also. They came out in the evening, after a long, HOT day... and ALL of Giants Stadium were BOOING...HARD. And within 20 minutes Fred turned the entire place around and had them eating out of his hand. He was in the crowd with a fake ray gun and I have to say, it was a blast.
I actually quite like “Take A Look Around” from Chocolate Starfish
I was in high school when Limp Bizkit gained popularity, and Fred Durst allowed me to believe I could be lead singer for a platinum selling rock band. For that reason Limp Bizkit will always have a place in my nostalgia playlist.
And just like Fred Durst, neither of you shouldve had a career in music.
I am curious tho, does anyone have any recommendations for music similar to Limp Bizkit but well, better?
@@hrgiderzhs837andhisharem4 linkin park, deftones, incubus, slipknot, chevelle, mudvayne and reveille.
@@hrgiderzhs837andhisharem4 korn, deftones (early), linkin park
My dad was a limp Bizkit fan (and by proxy so am I). He had Chocolate Starfish (the tape and the cd) in his truck. It was truly one of the craziest images to see as a young child and it continues to haunt me to this day.
😂
Genuinely difficult to look at
Counterfeit is unironically a great song, love that song so much. That alone should push 3 dolla bill y'all up a tier. The different content is always refreshing from Melon, the old jazzy/funky transition song is top tier.
Counterfeit and pollution are both great songs imo. The “Fred shut the f**k up” at the end always gets me lmao
i’m still an activist for “hold on”
@@JustSpittyITS MY FAVORITE PART every time i put on the song i can’t wait to yell that line
Counterfeit is how I was introduced to Limp Bizkit as a kid and it really is a great song
Came here to say the same. Bought Three Dollar Bill Y’all off the strength of counterfeit and thought I should keep an eye out for them. Lord did it all go downhill.
I actually went to a Limp Bizkit show this year and it was sooo much fun 🔥 Their dumb bangers work insanely well live
I mean, when you watch the videos of Limp Bizkit playing at Woodstock 99, it’s wild to see just the ocean of people bobbing and moshing.
People like to talk shit on them now (I mean, back then too), but they were a cultural phenomenon and there’s a reason people still talk about them to this day.
That was my take away from their little comeback set at Lollapalooza; Dumb lyrics, but great live show.
You mean Rapestock? That's what it was.@@TheMFYeti
my buddy went to a festival with a bunch of metal bands and he said besides 1 other band (cant remember who) limp bizkit had by far the best show
I went to Inkcarceration in July, and it was a pretty stacked lineup, but night one with Limp Bizkit was no joke, one of the most fun concerts I've ever been to.
Limp Bizkit records sound REALLY good. They are mixed excellently.
I'll say this right now, the Unquestionable Truth Part 1 just might be their "best" thing they've ever put out. Fred's lyrics are a bit of a far cry from the first four albums, exceptionally great riffs from Wes and the Truth is unironically a hidden gem of a track.
i think the same way, found it pretty enjoyable. my favorite is "the story". great song with some nice shifts in tempo. i mean sure, you can hipster about it just beeing a ripoff of ratm, but i found it cool for them to at least try something different, to stray away from the path and try some "concept album" of sorts
Agreed, I don’t get the RATM rip off vibes that fantano got. It feels almost post hardcore to me
Good to see Anthony being nostalgic. It’s a rare thing
He always reminisces on Nu Metal although it’s one of the worst genres
@@leorrocherdon’t lie to yourself. Nu-Metal is beautiful
@@clandon9624 there’s 100s of other genres I’d rather dive into 😅
@@leorrocherNu Metal help so much to new fans that now love rap.
@@leorrocher it's wayy better than your other 100 genres
The DJ Premier beat on "N 2 Gether Now" is an underrated bop. Not to be confused with the awful Pharrell beat and mixing they have for the video on their official UA-cam account.
I just listened to that Pharrell version and apparently it was mimicking what drugs feel like.
He didn’t produce that beat. DJ Lethal did. There’s an interview with DJ Premier where he even admits to that and barely did anything besides a few tweaks here and there
I never knew this version existed! what the actual fuck! Why would they put this on their UA-cam channel? I would listen to Mef on anything, but I lasted 10 seconds on that version of the song.
If you can stomach Durst, which I can, the albums tiers move up by at least 2. That's all it really boils down to for a lot of people.
Significant should be C tier, Fantano was overly harsh on that
Speaking of boiling down, Boiler is a proper song and I thought it weird it didn't get a mention in the review. Was such an obvious highlight to the album.
i actually really like limp bizkit
they're heavy and fun and its not something to take too seriously
energetic riffs and loud noises to listen to when you're in the mood to break something
People always focus on durst but borland was the reason we loved this band so much cooler than head or carpenter etc
I liked the band as a whole tbh
yeah the bassist was pretty fantastic as well
and john otto, drummer
pretty solid grooves ong
Anthony's core music taste.
yeah this is a real case of we hate what reminds us of ourselves
Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water is truly the greatest album title in history. Such a nuanced metaphor, composed of euphemisms that so many people just don't understand.
[Wiffs a swirling glass of Merlot... the expensive old and rare kind...] I agree bro. You and I just get it because we are men of the world.
Honestly you need to also watch their live performances, specifically Woodstock 99. Easily one of the greatest concerts in that genre’s history (right there with KORN too)
It’s ok Fantano, because you’re the one and only melon, you’ll keep rollin, rollin, rollin, rollin.
I know Limp Bizkit gets a lot of shit, but honestly I love how unapologetically themself this band was. It’s like Lil B or 100 Gecs in the 90s.
Edit: y’all gotta chill
Except the gecs are great
@@spiritoftime8464 billy knows jamie is literally limp bizkit
@@RainJamba yeah but good
@@spiritoftime8464It’s the same
@@spiritoftime8464 Great at making shit music
I really don’t understand all the hate that limp bizkit gets, I genuinely enjoy their music I think it’s actually really good
People just hate on them because it’s the trendy thing to do
Fun fact: If it wasn't for Korn, Limp Bizkit wouldn't be where it is today. The band kept nudging Korn to check them out and sign them. But Korn didnt see it, until like the 100th time, and then they were like: FUCKING FINE, JUST TAKE THE SHARPIE AND LEAVE US ALONE. Sort of. But yeah, eventually their sound came through and the band took them to the matthews bridge since 1999. Plus the Family Values tour changed the lives of many people and many artists like Orgy, Staind, and Rammstein.
the limp bizkit version of behind blue eyes was a big thing in brasil because a soap opera called malhação put the song in the soundtrack, in every corner in that time you hear the music.
Oh god, now I'm just imagining all those people playing that song non stop and turning it up and fist pumping to the beat, moms crying like it was "My heart will go on" from Titanic.
cacete a avalanche de nostalgia q tu me proporcionou agora bicho
lol i did not remember that, but yeah, behind blue eyes played a lot around here
Isso é foda (thats fuck)
it's still gets its turns in grocery stores in my homecountry. one of the reasons why I am paranoid about ending up working as a supermarket employee
When they performed in Worcester last year Fred actually paused the song to finally correct himself 20 years later 😂
Hybrid Theory forever slaps
Ty for finally posting, ive been waiting for this. I can now die in peace
Ok but you're not a true Limp Bizkit until you've watched the movies Fred Durst directed
Can't wait for Fantano to make an exception and review The Fanatic with John Travolta
RLM did a great review of it
@@evilkadeeblesYMS’ watch-along is good, too.
Cannot forget the "My Way" Wrestlemania tie in. It was maybe the best wrestling promo ever.
I saw these guys live a few years back. Maybe 7 or 8 years now come to think of it. Honestly it was fucking fantastic. They sound great live, and have an awesome energy. And the crowd was just so into it. I guess it was just my (then) fellow 30 years olds suddenly being back in school.
Hey, those first 2 Korn albums are insane! Them and Deftones really kicked off Nu Metal and then Korn had to go and pass Limp Bizkit's demo to their label which got them signed. They always said they regretted it, especially around the Woodstock days. There's video of Jonathan regretting helping Limp Bizkit. That must be hard to hear.
Korn still are nostalgic to me. And I find some songs amazing still. I love their Issues album a lot. First 2 albums too, like I said, but also Take A Look In The Mirror. That was a nice return to raw Korn with less bells and whistles. After that they experimented a lot for 2 albums while losing Head, 1/2 of the guitarists then the drummer David. That changed their path forever. Especially Dvaid leaving meant less hip-hop influence with the beats. I loved David. Never could enjoy Ray as much. Too technical for a band like Korn. He's too good lol
The Katamari record scratch sound effect goes hard.
I knew I couldn't be the only person who immediately recognized that sound
when
nevermind just heard it lol
I thought it was Jet Set Radio, but it's probably from the same sound library
For anyone else looking for it, it's at 2:50
I never got super into Limp Bizkit, but I’ve always liked the album cover for “Significant Other”, that art is 🔥
I was a teenager when Faith came out and Limp Bizkit exploded. I was a fan at the time but while I've moved on to other music and genres, I can go back and still listen to Korn, Deftones, and Slipknot and still enjoy them to an extent, I can't say the same thing for LB lol
I feel like Significant Other and Chocolate Starfish would be really fun albums if they were both 20 to 30 minutes shorter.
or roughly 40 to 50 minutes shorter
CD's could hold 70+ min, why wouldn't they fill em up? lol "...never stopped to ask if they should"
they're both full of excellent material, but definitely get held back as fully sequenced albums by the '90s "we must fill the entire CD" trend. still ridiculously fun regardless though
The first half of Chocolate Starfish is almost all bangers. If it were just that and Take a Look Around, it would actually be a pretty solid album.
@@lolusuck386 it’s literally mindless yelling. it goes against everything that makes music good
It’s hard to tell when people are meming or not about Limp Bizkit, but I love them genuinely so much. One of my favorite bands of all time.
I was really into nu metal when I was younger, and none of it aged well, except for System of a Down really. But there’s something about limp bizkit that just never got old. They suck. But in a good way.
I don’t understand how Evil Empire is a S tier album but Significant other is a D. I don’t think there is a 4 stage difference between the two
Nu metal aging poorly is overstated. Nothingface owns. 90s Korn owns too despite what Mr. Anthony says.
@@samfitzz3yeah you're right it's probably more like a 5 stage difference
Actually System of a Down aged awfully bad.
@@zebgf261 Fantano knows Korn was innovative, but he def tries to distance himself more now. He’s just obsessed with image and wokeness so he has to hate on anything that reminds him of a time period he’s been told to hate or dismiss.
This is the first video I’ve watched of needledrop in years and instantly reminded of why he’s so annoying - for me it’s something about him not coming across as genuine anymore. Seems too influenced by what he should say
I know I'm not the only one here but I grew up on Limp Bizkit back in the day when they first released and honestly, I was in love with their music early on. Them and Linkin Park got me into metal. I later discovered more music through EA Trax back with older games. Need for Speed and GTA got me into a lot of different stuff.
Eventually after years I got into Deftones sinxe Chester and Mike from Linkin Park mention them very quickly during their Live In Texas DVD I had. I kept thinking, what's a Deaf-tone. Mudvayne? They mentioned another band they were touring with.
Side note, I thought Chino and rest of Deftones vowed to not play with Nu Metal bands back then. They even talked shit about Linkin Park ripping their older music off.
Years later Mike has worked with them but still... I found it odd they didn't tour with Korn after they begged for so long. They were friends. But Chino voiced his concerns being grouped in with all "New" (Nu) Metal acts. It can only be new for so long before it gets old. He was right.
Limp Bizkit is just a fun band. My Way, Take a Look Around, Break Stuff are genuinely great bangers even now
INTRODUCING THE CHOCOLATE STARFISH AND THE HOT DOG FLAVORED WATER
I really like this band. Is not the best thing I've ever heard, but is a band to only get fun with their music. I find the rhythm sections very tight, and Wes riffs are amazing.
Damn the rhythm sections in Limp Bizkit are so damn fun. Like Korn and Deftones (obviously Korn is better and Deftones are WAAAAY better but you know what I mean.)
That’s my favorite Limp Bizkit song, “only get fun with”
@@mr_doublebuttyeah definitely
Never knew Limp Bizkit was from Florida, but it totally makes sense 😂
Wait..Brad Taste's soundbites have bands attached to them?
HOO HAA
Beck is another actually quality example of rock and hip hop fusing. He has some banger rap rock & alt-hip hop on albums like Odelay, Mellow Gold or The Information
One of the most criminally underrated bands that combined rap and metal in a really unique way was Candiria. Unfortunately they're a shell of their former selves now but every album up until "What Doesn't Kill You" is absolutely mind blowing.
I think While They Were Sleeping is awesome.
Unfortunately they had a terribile accident... They could have been something way bigger than what they ended up being
the fact you grew out the soul patch for this video is truly commendable
Chocolate Starfish is by far my biggest guilty pleasure album. I found it in my dads CD collection as a child and I thought it was the coolest thing I’d ever heard😂
It's pretty cringe that you can't even acknowledge Significant Other and 3 Dollar Bill as legitimately good albums. Did Fred Durst kill your childhood pet?
No one knows what it’s like to be a mad melon
To be a sad melon
I legit wondered what channel he was clipping for the Behind Blue Eyes bit and then I realized oh, that's just Youngtano.
I love Limp Bizkit. Nice that Fantano finally says something about Gold Cobra 😅 Significant Other and Chocolate Starfish are easily S Tier imo (unironically)
LB haters are usually snobs who think music only matters if it's "deep" or people who have to pretend to hate something for an imaginary audience.
LB never claimed to be philosophers and they would all state that they loved what they did and had fun with it, thanking Fred at one point as well, acknowledging that Fred as their manager is what got them international fame and sweet deals. John Otto specifically said that without Fred they'd (He and Sam) still be in a talented local band playing bars.
agreed
Never laughed so hard the time they were making an album before they announced it as Results May Vary when Fred Durst was interviewed and said what that album was going to sound like. He stated it was going to be a Pink Floyd record. 🤣
Fred Durst: "If only we could flyyyyyy"
*Records music video for Rollin' on top of the World Trade Center one year before 9/11*
Dang didn’t even bring up the serj tankian feature on “don’t go off wandering”
I’m only 21 and I just found limp bizkit but they are easily my most played artist this year. As a black kid that grew up with both rap and rock it’s like the best of both worlds idk.
Re-arranged and The One are really good songs. I like the vibe and the musical arrangement. Highly recommended.
Forgot how much I liked Re-arrange
2 of their best songs, well said!
Classics week doesn't happen for another three months, Anthony.
Was limp bizkit shit? Yes.
Was limp bizkit still a lot of fun? Also yes. 😂
can you make a video series explaining song composition and structure?
As a fan of the Biz, I wouldn’t have this ranking any other way.
(hed)pe had the pinnacle album of nu-metal with their debut on Jive Records in 1997. Still surprised it gets overlooked as frequently as it does, the perfect blend of gangsta rap delivery, punk rock attitude, with crushing guitar tone and a tight drum sound 10/10 👌
Their Faith cover is a banger. At 14, when this album came out, I loved it
Listening to Significant Other rn cuz i remember loving it n Anthony talked down the record a lot. I fell pretty much in love with the album in high school and like 10 years later ... i still kinda love it. I kinda just zone out of what Fred is actually saying and the vibes are just solid for me. I'm vibing tf out rn
ITS TIME FOR THE CHOCOLATE 🍫 STARFISH ⭐
The first three albums are all classics
I understand there is timeless music and “aging well” is important for a classic record, but music is genuinely just supposed to capture the zeitgeist of a certain time period and I think stuff like this and korn did it well, Again far from classic stuff but important for the time nonetheless, there is plenty of good music that hasn’t “aged well”.
Looking back, bands like System of a Down, Korn, Linkin Park and Slipknot all did it much better and without nearly as much cringe elements
Fuck the cringe man, you are cringe for saying cringe
@@2000Doriyas Linkin Park is cringy as it gets my man
Hard disagree, the cringe to tasteful ratio (on their first two albums) is low as fuck for nu-metal@@daimon_eyes
@@2000Doriyasidk, I saw someone wearing a Slipknot hoodie at my campus and they were getting some weird stares.
"Re-Arranged" should have been the template for the rest of their career.
I saw Limp Bizkit with Kid Rock and Staind opening in 1999 when i was 13. It was amazing at the time 😂 i'd say being a 13 year old boy is the prime demographic for LB
Still hoping one day we get a U2 tier list
me too
Fantano could just eat fruit after ranking Zooropa and it would be generous
Joshua Tree is a banger album
Would love to see a KoRn tier list. Also, where the remix album fall?
Listen, man. We praised the hits. I can sleep tonight.
You know you’re a special type of terrible when Rage Against The Machine gets *angry* at you for calling them a musical influence.
RATM is political Limp Bizkit
Trent Reznor and Eminem hate Limp Bizkit too. Poor Fred's got some terrible luck getting his favorite artists to respect him.
Limp Bizkit is awesome as I can mentally switch off and go back to the days as an angsty teenager. I love putting on Chocolate Starfish every few months to just bang my head to
When I was younger ‘behind blue eyes’ was very popular and I didn’t hear many complaints about it back then but seeing all the hate for it years and years later was a shock to me. Maybe it was just not poorly received in Australia?
No, it was well received here in the U.S. as well. I even know a few The Who fans who really like it. It seems as though the hate is coming from people who were too young when it was released.
It's a shitty cover of one of The Who's shittier songs, and The Who themselves are one of the shittiest rock bands. That's really all it's about.
Now I’m definitely gonna go binge some LB. Thanks for this! ☺️
limp bizkit has aged like fine wine
This is a real review great commentary on masterful rock music 10/10
Fred Durst just brings this band down so hard in quality. Always really enjoyed Wes' playing, especially as a guitarist myself. his solo work has some really interesting and experimental guitar work.
Without Fred they never would have took off. Sam, John, and even Wes have all said this. While they are all talented, Fred had the shark instincts to navigate in the music industry, which they all lacked.
Why else would John and Sam be so loyal, or Wes and Lethal be enthusiastic to return? You don't get that loyalty unless you've earned it.
I get his lyrics are very superficial, but it was always intended to be so. Pop music just works that way, and the ones who try to be deep usually end up frustrated as their meanings go over audience's heads, see RATM or SOAD, who a lot of fans back then didn't know of or ignored Rage's communist sympathies or SOAD's tackling of genocide and abuse. They just heard groovy riffs with an in-sync angry voice jabbering away.
Always Love Limp Bizkit, they are an amazing Live band, so much fan!
I had no idea Limp Bizkit released an album in 2005. By that point the world had very much moved on from Limp Bizkit, but I can't remember ever hearing a single thing about it at the time.
