Album Description

He's been a) an underground metal mercenary, abetting the likes of brainy young upstarts From First to Last and He Is Legend, b) a fearless visual artist whose unsettling images will appear on his forthcoming CD, and most famously c) the chameleonic lead guitarist for Limp Bizkit, who have sold over 30 million records worldwide. Now, for Wes Borland's next trick, he's putting on the guise of frontman, leading both a studio and live supergroup to even darker depths as Black Light Burns. And the new look suits him well. Borland has flirted with his big post-LB breakthrough on and off over the last five years, first with the idiosyncratic Big Dumb Face, then with his brother Scott in Eat the Day before hooking up with bassist Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails) and drummer Josh Freese (A Perfect Circle) in proto-industrial powerhouse the Damning Well, whose crushing Underworld soundtrack contribution "Awakening" featured Richard Patrick (Filter, Army of Anyone) on vocals. Now Borland has taken Lohner, Freese and sound designer Josh Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv) to super-producer Ross Robinson's upstart I AM: WOLFPACK label and delivered Black Light Burns' harrowing debut, Cruel Melody, 180 degrees from what you think you know about the eccentric axeman. From the post-Ramones surf rock freakout of opener "Mesopotamia" and the slow-build confessional spit of "I Have a Need" to the introspective, epic closing tandem "New Hunger" and "I Am Where It Takes Me" (the latter featuring the smoky siren call of Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano), Cruel Melody is one hell of a curveball. "For the most part, [the record's] more about melody," Borland says. "It's a big drums record, because Josh Freese goes bananas. A lot of it was thought about in terms of beats and attacking the songs beatwise. And the riff kind of followed second to that, if it was appropriate. "The record starts real aggressively, but toward the middle it gets a little more hurtful and hurting, lyrically, trying to express painful feelings, but still in an aggressive way. Then it kind of opens up in the end. And that was the purpose: to attack, then explain, then release and be done with it." Cruel Melody was originally going to be an esoteric, dirge-heavy solo project with a variety of singers, but as Borland started writing heavier material, he finally decided to take the reins behind the mike. It didn't hurt that he got inspiration not only from Lohner, who doubled as the album's producer, but Lohner's famous former employer. "I was talking to Trent Reznor, playing him these tracks in their infancy," Borland remembers. "And he said, `You're singing like somebody's sleeping in the next room. You should try to open that up.' You know, it's really easy to do cool electronic music that's instrumental and put soft vocals over it, but it's a lot harder to write actual songs and have them hit people." With Cruel Melody locked and loaded, Borland's planning an evocative new onstage persona for Black Light's maiden voyage, boasting a live band with guitarist Nick Annis (Seether), drummer Marshal Kirpatric (Today Is the Day, the Esoteric) and, for now, a laptop to wreak ambient havoc. ("Screw it," he laughs, "there's a computer in the band.") In the interim, he's just striving to perfect his unique approach to making art. "The paintings and the music kind of chase one another, trying to keep up with some other third element that's the idea," Borland considers. "It's almost like when you see a little flash in the corner of your eye and you're not sure what it was. My music and visual art is me trying to look really fast to see what that third thing was. I'm always trying to hit this place that gives me some satisfaction."

Borland is back with a vengeance........2007-07-06

Wes Borland was the most talented member of Limp Bizkit. His guitar work was what held that band together. When I was still in high school, I was into LB because all my friends thought they were awesome. They had their place, I guess. They wrote some catchy songs that sounded good at parties, but things got worse with each album, until they became a joke with Results May Vary.

After toying with some side projects such as Big Dumb Face, which was actually a pretty good cd despite the obvious potty humor and outlandish themes, Borland has burst back on the scene with this new band.

Black Light Burns has talented musicians on board. Guys that were previously in Nine Inch Nails. On many songs, you can catch a NIN vibe, but although these guys are industrial, they incorporate many other heavy music styles to invent a new sound. There are sprinkles of classic LB-sounding riffs, there are elements of grunge, classic metal, and other genres.
The entire cd has blown me away, and it has quickly made it's way into my heavy cd rotation. Lots of variety, plenty of hooks, and Wes actually has a good voice for this kind of music. Check out the songs, "Lie" and "The Mark" and those should give you an idea of what to expect. Great album. I like it better than the new NIN.

Amazing,.......2007-07-02

This really is an amazing album. It's really a great direction for rock, and for Borland, who has always been underrated due to his time in that horrible biscuit band.

Anyways, this album really shows off his strengths as a guitarist, and his often smart songwriting capabilities.

My only real complaint is that this isn't Big Dumb Face. BDF holds a special place in my heart, and it saddens me that we may never get another album from such a great project.

The melodies are indeed cruel.......2007-06-25

Having little success with Big Dumb Face and Eat The Day, in addition to Limp Bizkit ending up in shambles, Wes Borland has brought forth a rousing gothic endeavor. Bafflingly, he passed on opportunities joining respectable bands Nine Inch Nails and A Perfect Circle, but Black Light Burns sounds like it could be influenced from either band. Perhaps Borland wanted something he could have more control of? This could be the case, since he handles vocals, guitar, bass, programming, percussion, synths, piano, rhodes, violin, cello, and even drums (on just one song, "I Am Where It Takes Me"). Black Light Burns is also Danny Lohner (producer, additional guitar, additional bass, programming, sound design), Josh Freese (drums, percussion), and Josh Eustice (synths, sound design). Both Lohner and Freese have Nine Inch Nails ties, so it's no surprise Cruel Melody has a few similarities to the `Nails sound.

The vocals fit the style of music well - they're gritty, gloomy, and dark - although sometimes monotonous. At times Borland is Marilyn Manson-esque (but not sounding as deep or corpse-like), and at other times he is Trent Reznor-esque. As expected, he brings catchy riffs, along with a handful of solos which are carefully placed and not overdone. Drums and percussion both aggressively attack and calmly lull, and the programming adds electronic flavor. Give Wes Borland's Black Light Burns a chance, because you may be surprised with what a face-painted rocker can bring to the table.

Borland rocks.......2007-06-23

I used to hate Limp Bizkit back when they were popular. I was a NIN/Marilyn Manson fan and hated anything that was rap-related. Even though I kept telling myself that Bizkit sucked,.. I always listened to them on the radio. The music itself was actually pretty good and full of energy that made you want to punch out your car windows.

Fast forward to 2007 and I'm taking music less seriously now. It's just entertainment and it's stupid to be a snob and gauge intelligence based on what music someone listens to. I ended up buying the first three Bizkit albums and I like them alot.

I'm a Borland fan, not a Durst fan.

Black Light Burns "Cruel Melody" is pretty good. It has a lot of NIN influence,.. but Borland still works the awesome guitar riffage. It's strange to hear Borland singing,.. as I'm so used to him being the silent one who speaks with guitar. His vocals need to be pushed to the limits while on tour for him to grow in that department. His vocals aren't bad, they just need some exercise and flexing.

I can't wait for the next album.

black light burns.......2007-06-23

My curiosity got the best of me when I bought this cd. Knowing that Josh Eustis and Danny Lohner lended a hand in the final product was most likely the biggest factor that led me to buy the cd, seeing how both are A Perfect Cicle collaborators. This is a solid first effort overall, the only song I did not like was the opener, Mesopatamia, but the rest of the songs were all strong. Overall, this is a noticeable first release by guitarist/vocalist Wes Borland.

The splicing together of nu metal, rap, funk, and sterile electronica laced with dark melodies as infectious as anything Britney has to offer inspired 6 million people to purchase copies of Limp Bizkit's Significant Other. With Chocolate Starfish, they perfect their formula. From the electro-infused "Intro" through the contagiously chugging "My Generation" to the straight-up rap of "Getcha Groove On," Chocolate Starfish is a slick, clinical, and flawless platform for Fred Durst's effortlessly savage--and occasionally unintentionally comic--sociological rants geared toward disaffected youth. Ultimately, though, it's that undeniably intelligent musical backdrop--the brooding guitar sound that gave the Mission Impossible 2 theme haunting new life and menace, and that defines "Hot Dog," "Full Nelson," "My Way," "Rollin'," "Boiler," and "It'll Be Okay"--that makes this a seething work of genius. The fact is, with rap and rock saying pretty much the same thing, Limp Bizkit have plenty of competition. They just do what they do better than everyone else. --Dan Gennoe

Infantile, laughable, retarded, yet catchy. .......2007-05-14

There are many people who hate them, and many who love them. I kind of stand in the middle. At times, I think they have shown their potential, like with their first two albums. But lately, they have become more idiotic. Definitely a gimic band. This album was fun to listen to when you were drunk at a college party, or when you needed something mindless to sing along to on a long drive. I tend to be embarrassed that I own their albums when talking to other fans of the heavy music scene. I think that I have learned to stay away from any new bands that show similar qualities to LB, but God help me, when I was first getting into heavier music, LB was there to bridge the gap. All my friends were into it. My musical taste has become heavier over the years, but LB is still a guilty pleasure at times. I think they have a talent for writing good hooks, but Fred is not a good vocalist. Wes Borland is very talented, and I'm glad he was smart enough to branch out from LB and do his own thing, because it must have been suffocating to be in such a scripted band. Oh well. I take this album for what it is. Mindless fun with little lasting value.

IDIOTS!!.......2007-04-21

Oh my God! Somebody said they were the creators of thrash metal? That is the biggest piece of crap ever! Hello, thrash was back in like 1981, with Slayer and Tallica. Back when Fred Durst was waxing his mother's wang.

Limp Bizkit is quite possibly the worst band since WHAM. Even the Dixie Chicks could wipe the floor with 'em. All of their songs are they same poser bullcrap. They are a gimmick. How can you take a band seriously when they have a song like Hot Dog? And My Generation? That song is such crap. It is sad that a bunch of loser kids who like to think they are cool listen to Limp Bizkit. LIMP BIZKIT IS FOR LOSERS, POSERS, MORONS, IDIOTS, and Fred Durst's family members!!

Don't buy anything LIMP BIZKIT!!!

Rap-metal at it's finest!.......2007-04-06

First off that dude that said that Limp Bizkit is the kreatorz of thrash metal, I agree. Not only can they mix thrash, speed, power, grunge, & all types of metal, but they can mix hip hop, funk, rap, & nice phat beats with'em as well. Fred Durst knows how to put his mind to it when comes to rap-metal genres & no this metal band is not, I repeat not nu-metal. This band is a hundred percent heavy metal with mixtures of rap vocals, oh yeah! To the haters below, whats the deal with hating on Limp Bizkit for, they're the real deal metal baby. But as me I like both rap music & metal music, epecially in combine form as naturally well! Limp Bizkit will indeed go down in all history in the heavy metal hall of fame.

P.S. Get the LB albums in permanent order:
1. 3 Dollar Bill Y'all
2. Significant Other
3. This one right here, Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Dog Flavored Water
4. Old New Songs remix
5. Results May Vary(that album is not bad)

Must admit that this is a good album.......2007-04-04

Especially now that nu-metal is dead and korn and linkin park are the only thriving nu-metal bands it is embarrasing to admit to liking a limp bizkit album. I am not a huge limp bizkit fan, but this album is definately worth listening too. Every song on this album is entertaining if you are a hard rock fan. This album is definately a good album to get the adrenaline going. Even if you are embarrased to have anyone know that you are listening to limp bizkit it is definately worth listening to in secret.

If you have read my title, it sayz that Limp Bzkit are the kreatorz of thrash metal.... And that's a fact! Thoze pozerz like old Metallica, Pantera, and Slayer were nu-metal you idiotz. Thrash metal didn't come around until KoRn and Limp Bizkit came around and came up with the great of idea and actually including SOLOZ in their songz. Thrashing guitar soloz that show pozerz like Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix and "Dimebag" Darrel how to play a guitar solo.

Fred Durst is a musical genius- that showed on their debut. It showed he was a tortured artist whoze genius could only be understood by other tortured artists, like me, who watch MTV and TRL.

Limp Bizkit will go down as the greatest heavy metal band of all time.

To the person who posted this piece of s**t of a review...What the hell have you been smoking?! I swear your review is the most funniest I have ever read here on Amazon and when I finished reading it I was giggling with laughter!...If you think Limp Bizkit is the greatest heavy metal band, then why are they not around anymore?! Limp Bizkit doesn't even come close to being a heavy metal band...By the way how the hell can you even say Metallica, Slayer, or Pantera are a nu metal band when they are NOT?! They don't even come close to being nu metal you stupid dumbass. Nu metal would be bands like Korn or Linkin Park or that band called Limp Bizkit. What I don't get is how you think Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix are posers when they were doing solos long before Limp Bizkit even existed. Fred Durst doesn't even come close to being a genius because either he or someone had come up with the most dumbest cd title I have ever read..and it's people like you that makes me really laugh because smart people know when to stay the hell away from MTV because they don't know what a real rock band is or a metal band for that matter... That's why they suck b*lls*

Florida-bred metal-rappers Limp Bizkit sold a million-plus records of their debut largely on the strength of a George Michael cover song. But the band indeed had "Faith" and the group's second outing proves that the Bizkit have the goods. Still, it seems as if boastful frontman Fred Durst is loading the band's deck again, this time by including scads of guest vocalists, such as Stone Temple Pilots' singer Scott Weiland, Method Man from Wu-Tang Clan, and Korn's Jonathan Davis. (In fact, Korn gave Limp Bizkit a leg up in the industry.) But the 16 diverse yet cohesive tracks on Significant Other don't need any help. Not as heavy as their mentors Korn--or as they are on their debut--Bizkit give Everlast a run for his money on the tuneful and appealing "Rearranged." "Just Like This" is another winning hip-hop and rock entry, while the amusing and memorable "Nookie" (as in "I did it all for the nookie") has self-deprecating lyrics not unlike the Offspring's "Self-Esteem." Bizkit segues with ease from pleasing rock and hip-hop amalgam to spooky Tool territory on "Don't Go Off Wandering" to moshable moments in the entreaty "Show Me What You Got." Significant Other may be hard to categorize, but it's easy to like. --Katherine Turman

Made for radio nu-metal. Best Bizkit album. .......2007-05-14

I neither hate or love LB, but I do think they have a talent for writing catchy songs. None of their songs will ever challenge a listener. Everything is very straightforward, mindless fun. I consider them a gimic band. Fred is average at best. Really, the thing that carries this band is Wes Borland's guitar-work. He has a very original sound and comes up with some great guitar riffs. Too bad he is wasting his talent in this band. I'm sure he is happy about all the money they have made, but for an artist like him, it would have to be very stifling, because this album is one big, made-for-radio albatross. It is so obvious what they were trying to do here. They basically sold out. I enjoy this album for the unique, fun-filled event that it is, but it is so one-dimensional that I rarely come back to it anymore. It comes across as a piece of label-created, nu-metal fluff. But, what the heck, I had a lot of good times listening to it at parties back in the day. And that is what it is good for. Mindless fun. Props to Borland for his new band, Black Light Burns. It comes out June 5th, and I am impressed already.

Best album of 1999.......2007-04-18

Everyone seems to hate Fred Durst, but when this came out it was the biggest album around, this is the album that really made nu metal mainstream, korn's freak on a leash brought it to every one's attention, but this is one of the best albums ever made, debuted at no.1. Nookie, RE-arranged, and break stuff are the best three song combo you could ever put together, every song on the album is solid and could be used as a single, i thought they couldve done without n together now, but other than that its solid. One of the best ever made no matter what anyone says, it spawned a whole genre

No hooks, no melody, weak beats, 3 power chord guitar part, inane rapping, kareoke singer, immature, meaningless lyrics etc........2007-02-22

I can proudly say that I was never into this lame excuse for a band. This was definately the WORST band out at the time.

This is the band that all the "cool" kids in the early years of highschool were into, along with fellow posers Linkin Park. All those stupid fools wearing baggy pants with the crotch part down to their knees, with those key chains or whatever they're called hanging out of their side pockets, wearing their stupid baseball caps, imitating their talentless idol Fred Durst. Those people who thought that Blink 182 and Good Charlotte were good punk bands. Y'know, the people who would sacrifice their education, and hence, their future, in favour of running after a ball in a field and dedicating their lives to some stupid teenage fad like skateboarding, which would last around 4 years, and following stupid fads like nu-metal, all to make some fat, bald, CEO, who would fit their definition of "uncool", rich.

Now, back then, I wasn't really into contemporary music. And looking back now, I can understand why. With talentless hacks like Limp Biscuit (notice how bad their name looks when you spell it correctly) infecting the radiowaves with their tuneless drivel, it's no wonder I didn't find it appealing. Of course, back then, I wasn't aware of real bands like Iron Maiden and Hypocrisy and the only good music I could find was classical and videogame OSTs. This all made me feel that I was somehow "abnormal". I mean, how could so many of my classmates be wrong about bands like this? It all made me feel as if there was something wrong with me. But now, having listened to this talentless drivel, I know that there certainly wasn't. In fact, I now know that I was the only normal one there, and it was everyone else that had the problem for liking this load of feces.

OK, perhaps I should explain why anyone who knows the slightest bit about music would realise that this is one of the worst albums ever made.

My first problem is that the whole album is completely devoid of hooks and melody. Even the singles "Nookie" and "Break Stuff", which are widely regarded as the album's best songs, have no hooks in them. The only way to explain how these sold is marketing. For example, Limp Biscuit used to pay radio stations to play their singles (which also makes them some of the biggest hypocrites ever, considering there is a hidden track on this album called "Radio Sucks". Way to bite the hand that feeds you). There is absolutely nothing catchy about these singles. They have absolutely no melody whatsoever. Even I could have written better music when I was 12. The only way to explain their success is their mass exposure.

Now, when an album has no melody and no hooks, it must contain some redeeming factors. Some examples are: speed, brutality, complex instrumental work, good beat, meaningful lyrics. Limp Biscuit has none of these.

Instead, we get an amateur guitarist who can barely play 3 chords (hell, just listen to Break Stuff), a talentless drummer who sounds like a five year old beating the drums with no sense of speed or rhythm, a bassist who's lack of talent is hidden under the annoying, completely unnecessary, scratching of the DJ. And to top it off, some of the worst rapping and singing I have ever heard, and the most immature, meaningless, inane lyrics I have ever seen, courtesy of the worst frontman in rock 'n roll history - none other than the talentless Fred Durst.

Here are some samples of Fred Durst's lyrical genius:

"I did it all for the nookie, come on
the nookie, come on
so you can take that cookie and stick it up your(yea)" - Nookie

"it's just one of those days where you don't wanna wake up
everything is ****** everybody sux
you don't really know why but you wanna justify
rippin someone's head off.
no human contact and if you interact, your life is on contract
your best best is to stay awake mother******
it's just one of those days!!" - Break Stuff

What is the meaning of these lyrics? It means that the standards of modern commercial music are so low that anyone reading this review could become a multi-millionaire in the music business. There is absolutely no clear rhyming pattern in any of their lyrics, and yes, they sound just as awkward when Fred Durst "raps". Speaking of the rapping, Fred Durst has got to be one of the worst rappers I have ever heard. He barely even makes an effort to stay on beat; the only good rapping on this CD comes from Method Man who features on "N 2 Gether Now". Plus his singing is karaoke at best. Fred Durst reminds me of the line from Eminem's diss against Everlast, "Quitter" - "He can't rap or sing, but he wants to do both". Although it was directed at Everlast, I think it perfectly describes Fred Durst.

Many people think Limp Biscuit's early albums, including this one, are actually worth listening to. Having listened to it, I cannot understand how anyone could have liked it in the first place. The fact that this band has sold millions of records speaks volumes about the sad state of the music industry these days. I cannot understand how anyone who has listened to a decent amount of rock music, even other nu-metal bands, could consider this a good album.

This is great!!!.......2007-03-13

All the songs are great on this!!!! I would defintely recommend this to people!!!!! I think this is a awesome greatest hits!!! I have all Limp Bizkit's CDs and would recommend them to anyone who likes metal (yes nu-metal is metal) and anyone who just likes having fun, because honestly there are not that many bands out there that are fun like these guys!!! 1 question for all the people who hate this band, why if you hate Limp bizkit so much would you take the time to review their CDs? People call Limp Bizkit fans idiots, but I think its a lot of Limp Bizkit haters who are idiots, who can't have a little fun! I don't think even think a lot of them hate Limp Bizkit, they just don't want to be "uncool" and like Limp Bizkit. Don't listen to people's stupid biased opinions, buy Limp Bizkit CDs!!

The new songs suck.......2007-02-15

Was Fred Durst a great lyricist and vocalist? Nope. Was Wes Borland an innovative guitar player? Not even close. But for fifteen minutes sometime in the 90's, we were all picking up what they we're putting down, and we loved every minute of it. There are only one or two good songs on each Limp Bizkit album anyway, so now you can have them all on one disc. The new songs suck.

Them bizkit'z aren't the only thing thats limp.......2007-02-10

This band sucks. Always did, always will. Fred Durst and Vanilla ice have a lot in common, if you know what I mean. And spelling hits with a z instead of an s shows just how phoney these retards are. Listen to this for laughs or to induce vomiting. Depending on what affects you're after.

IMITATION METAL 0/5 stars.......2006-12-28

Im just glad this imitational metal fad band is finished fred lived the lavish life for several years and now most of us exfans went our separate ways and found are true taste in real metal. Why did fred released a greatist hits cd? they were never any good and spelling hits improperly with a Z at the end is just stupid childish and laughable. Not only is this cd a pathetic worthless joke but fred had added songs that didn't even belong to him on his own greatist hits album which he should be adding only his own songs that he wrote not other peoples songs. now thats just saying he's taking credit for other peoples songs and he's greedy for money.

Sure all the singles are on here--but many are EDITS.......2006-11-12

If you are a casual fan of Limp Bizkit and were just hoping to have all the big singles that used to be on TRL and stuff on one disc, this CD comes as a disappointment. At least HALF the songs on here are significantly shorter than on the actual CDs they come from, starting with the first big huge tracks, Counterfeit, Faith and Nookie, which, if you look on itunes, are each listed as the "greatest hits" versions, which I assume means edits so that they could fit more songs on one disc. Too bad. This could have been a convenient way to get all the complete versions of theirs songs on one disc so you wouldn't have to buy each individual CD.

Rap metal has been around ever since 1986 when Run-DMC and Aerosmith joined forces for a remake of "Walk This Way," but it took nearly a decade for Rage Against the Machine to bust the floodgates wide open. Soon after, a stream of percussive hellraisers including Korn, Downset, and Deftones infiltrated the metal market, and they, in turn, sired a new breed fronted by acts like Snot and Limp Bizkit. Three Dollar Bill Y'All, Limp Bizkit's debut album, is a tempestuous collection of divergent styles. Unlike metal acts that try to get "dope," but lack the hip-hop background to legitimately fuse the two genres, Limp Bizkit--which features Wes Borland and House of Pain member DJ Lethal--have the know-how to groove and grind. And instead of launching a one-dimensional Blitzkrieg, Limp Bizkit mixes up its rhythms and tempos to keep its listeners guessing. --Jon Wiederhorn

Limp debut showed some promise.....didn't deliver on it in the long run........2007-05-14

This is LB's heaviest album, and many people who like their work from Significant Other onwards may only like a couple of songs on here, because they tend to be more raw-sounding and in-your-face. Of course, everyone bought this because of "Faith", more than likely. I think the first half of this album was good and I like this heavy side of LB, but then they figured out how to sell records and in turn, sold out. LB was considered cool when I was finishing high school and entering college, but now they are kind of looked on with contempt. I think they had their place in music history, albeit not a big one, and they aren't meant to be taken too seriously. They were fun, but their career has run it's course. They peaked in 1999-2000, and it has been a long fall ever since. Still, on occasion, I bring out the old LB albums for some mindless fun at parties. And that's about it.

This is great!!.......2007-03-04

This CD is great!!! Lots of good tracks, and a really fun album!! This is not their best, although it is amazingly cool!! I recommend any of Limp Bizkit's CD's!! My personal favorites are Counterfeit, Sour, and Faith. But there all great, so buy this!! Oh and to the person said that thrash metal is better the Nu-metal, here is a big "F you"!! Your wrong and thrash metal is not very good at all, so get a life!!!

It was ok for its time but that was a DECADE AGO!.......2006-08-16

Oh man, this sucks really bad. Good thing nu-metal is dead. THRASH METAL IS REAL METAL, this is for posers.

Fred Durst should have never been born..................................2006-07-20

Limp Bizkit are the perfect testimony as to why the music industry is going downhill. If any A&R person signed this band - even ten years ago, they would have been shot. Fred Durst is a f***ed up psycopath that should have his head squashed by a steam roller and after that- they should flush peices of his brain down the toilet. His body should be thrown in an unmarked grave - with no memory of him whatsoever. And the fact that guitar player Wes Borland got in the magazine "Guitar legends" is a sick joke. He can't even play guitar - let alone churn out any decent riffs. The whole music industry owes the world an apology for for making Fred Durst famous - because now were stuck with him. This band is no more than a warning to kids that if you suck, you pay for it.

Been there, done that.......2006-07-08

you know them... you hate them.... or.... you love them.... it really is that simple. Bar none... their best album is this. It always was, and always will be!

Wes-less Limp Bizkit like LeBron-less Cavaliers........2007-05-14

"Eat You Alive" gave me false hope that this could be an alright album after the departure of Wes Borland. I was wrong. There is very little to like about this. The guitar riffs are weak and don't stick. There is an overall lack of cohesiveness. Wes was the glue that held this weak band together, and without him, they would have sucked and do suck now without him. Check out the songs online and download ones you like, but don't just buy this album in it's entirety. You're bound to be disappointed.

Warning.......2007-04-11

This album has some Potential good songs on it, but the lyrics arw so goofy and meaningless that i actually laughed throughout the whole album, which i got from a friend cause he hated it. Im not kidding by the time the disc ended i was on the floor in pain from laughing so hard. Thank god they hung it up finally.

People are wrong, this rocks!!!.......2007-03-07

I honestly love this CD!!! This features some great songs, including Eat You alive,Head for the Barricade, Almost Over, and Build a Bridge. I don't get why people don't like this, I love it!! One final note, some people complain this whines too much, but yet many bands that are popular whine way more!!! Basically, give this CD a try, and listen with an open mind and you will be surprised and amazed.

3.75 People can be short minded.......2007-01-08

No one will probably read this at this point, but i must write it anyway. When Bizkit 'Broke' there was NO hard rock / heavy bands getting anywhere! they at least brought some heavy riffs and spirit to a dead scene at the time. But of course after their success every rap based rock band got a deal and before you know it Limp Bizkit is the scapegoat and Laughing stock. Its unfair and Unwarranted.That is coming from a 20 yr metalhead who doesnt stray from that genre on a regular basis. I hate the fact that people who now bash, cant appreciate that fact and also the fact that they probably owned a 'Bizkit album or 2 a few years ago.
Now that i got that out, this cd was coming out at a point where Wes B left the band and the ADD music buying public turned there backs on Fred D.I appreciated the fact that this cd was as good as it was. It was experimental, but had the foundation of a typical LB cd. Mr Durst had to know that the times were changing and, in my opinion, he handled it well on this release.
But in actuality this CD contains some serious LB gems. Dare i say some of the BEST stuff they had released. Fred D puts a bit of depth in the lyrics on songs like 'Drown','Down Another Day' and 'Almost Over'. Just really cool lyrics that anyone with an .oz of depth could appreciate. Then there are just the EXCELLENT heavier tracks like 'Gimme the Mic', 'Head For The Barricade' (featuring a bass note that crawls up you as*)and 'Eat You Alive'.
Yes of course there are a couple less than stellar tracks but with 16 songs its hardly a bad deal. Limp Bizkit always had a few weak songs, at least for me being into the heavier stuff. But the cover of 'Behind Blue Eyes' is great. also the more Rap based 'Creamer' are exceptions. Both tracks sound refreshing and flow well.
People should really appreciate this band more. They sold a hell of a lot of records, but the pile-on mentality and just rediculous reviews are really lame. This CD is 80% on the mark. Too bad peoples attention spans last 5 years tops! Stupid.

The end of the worst band to walk the earth........2006-11-08

Ok ok so I know they are still around and even have Wes Borland back (why would you want to rejoin?) for about a year, but this album was practically the end of all their fans and previous glory that they NEVER DESERVED. I used to think this pile of rubbish was good back in 5th grade, but now that I matured and began listening to bands like Opeth, Dark Tranquility, In Flames, Death, and bands that actually have a meaning to them besides "hey look at me I'm Fred Durst! I've been picked on even though I had numerous sexual encounters with celebs and have a load of money because I get airplay on MTV!" And even though I like those bands now, I still like some nu-metal including Soulfly (minus the songs in which he collaborated with Fred Durst), Korn (minus the song in which he collaborated with Fred Durst), Deftones (even though they aren't really nu-metal), occasionally Slipknot, and a few others; Durst (primarilly Durst) and crew are the dead possum that makes the genre suck.

Wow enough of talking about how much I hate the band I'm going to talk about how much I hate this album! It is pure stupidity mixed in with the generic Durst garbage. Without Borland this album just goes below the sewers of how their previous album was (Chocolate Starfish) and goes into the pile left from the dinosaurs that still rots under the crust. Yes, if you don't believe me then go buy this ridiculous mess of a crappy band. You will regret it but learn..

Any movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger is bound to have a soundtrack designed to match his brawn at every turn. The big hype here is the first Guns N' Roses track since 1993 (if Axl Rose alone can be GNR). While the track "Oh My God" alone probably isn't solid enough to distinguish this soundtrack, unreleased cuts from Korn and Limp Bizkit and notable contributions from Sonic Youth, Rob Zombie, Prodigy, and Creed make this an impressive collection of hard rock at the millennium's end. For those interested in subtler moves, Everlast contribute the previously unreleased "So Long," which was allegedly written before the Columbine High School shootings in 1999 and serves as a haunting premonition of the tragedy. Its moody introspection is a suitable counterbalance to the over-the-top rhythms and rage sported throughout. Rapper Eminem is incredibly heated with the aptly named "Bad Influence." --Rob O'Connor

i believe it is this movie, although i haven't seen it in a while, that has a really good techno/piano song in it that i can't seem to find again. once i heard the song i really liked it but can't come up with anything when i search for it. please help.

Most strong, some weak but overall it's impressive.......2006-02-10

I'm not a Guns N' Roses fan so the hype over their first studio effort since 93' was not what got me to buy this album. Actually, as imbarassing as this may be, what drew me to the album was an unreleased song by Limp Bizkit which turned out to be like the worst song here. The opener, Korns 'Camel Song' is great, an awsome track with some cool eerie guitar work. Everlast, one of my personal favorites, gives another great song with his unreleased track 'So Long' with haunting lyrics and great musicianship. As I said, a low point is Limps 'Crushed', even 'Oh My God' is better, and I don't really even like that song. Love Prodigy, just wish it were a new or unreleased track and not 'Poison' which was also used on the 'Jackel' soundtrack I believe. Still an awsome song. The Rob Zombie remix is killer, as is the original. Eminems track may not belong on a rock album but it's welcome. He blazes through offensive lyrics to a killer in your face beat and proves he is a master of the tongue. 'Bad Influence' is my favorite track here. Awsome. 'Nobodys Real' is decent, but again, nothing new...Falls a little short and then closes with Creed. Creed may not fit either but 'Wrong Way' is not entirly terrible and so it's forgiven. For the most part this album will not dissapoint, but it may not utterly impress if you get my drift.

Don't buy just for the gun n roses track.......2005-10-29

If u like the other artists on this album, by al means buy this album. But if u just want the new gnr track... DONT BUY IT!!!
O My God is the worst gnr song i have ever heard, except maybe for My World. If your looking for classic gnr, you will be greatly dissapointed with O My God. O My God is an annoying 3 or so minutes of annoying industrial noise. It is incrediably annoying and it sounds nothing like Axl Rose. It is a pathetic excuse for gnr. Whoever said it sounded like appetite is wrong. This song is so bad it could never be up to par with any song on appetite. It is HORRIBLE!!! It sounds nothing like the original guns n roses. I purchased this album just for the new gnr, but it was a waste of money because i didn't really like any of the other bands that much.

If you like any of the other bands on this soundtrack buy it, but if u just want gnr, im sorry you will probably be greatly dissapointed.

Feeling nostalgic for the late 90s?.......2005-10-25

3.5 Stars

The fall of 1999 saw the release of the film "End of Days" and its accompanying soundtrack.

The late 90s saw the tail end of the post-grunge era and the emergence of Nu-Metal or rap/metal. This soundtrack is a still shot or time capsule of that time. With a few exceptions, the "End of Days" soundtrack is more or less what you would hear if you tuned into a modern rock station in the late 90s. Nu-Metal was dark, masculine, and angry. Post-Grunge was a watered down version of the real thing.

"The Camel Song" by Korn is fairly representative of the whole Nu-Metal movement. It's heavy, has grueling guitars, screaming rap verses and tortured choruses, and not much melody. It sounds, as guitarist Slash once commented, like the "inside of a meat grinder." It is what it is; you'll either love it or hate it.

"So Long" by former House of Pain frontman Everlast, sounds derivative of his late 90s hit "What it's Like." "So Long" is actually just as good, and probably didn't get the attention of "What it's like" because the two sound alike. This dark, brooding song has a good hook and haunting melody.

"Slow" by "Professional Murder Music" is largely forgettable dance/metal filler.

Limp Bizkit's excellent "Crushed" is one of the band's best songs. The band had not yet slipped into mediocrity and self-parody. "Crushed" has a haunting, eerie beat and creepy background vocals.

The album's real selling point and highlight is the Guns N' Roses comeback single "Oh My God." It was the band's first new song in eight years, although it featured only original member W. Axl Rose. Rock fans are largely mixed on this song. People either seem to love it or hate it. Personally, I absolutely love it. It sounds a lot like Marilyn Manson or "The Downward Spiral" era Nine Inch Nails. It's an industrial tinged rocker, but still has the GN'R sound and structure. It has a very infectious, pounding disco beat and full throttle vocal assault. There is some confusion as to who plays on this track. It is: W. Axl Rose (vocals), Tommy Stinson (bass), Josh Freeze (drums), Robin Finck (guitar), Dave Navaro (guest guitar), Paul Huge (guitar), and Dizzy Reed (keyboards).

The inclusion of the Prodigy's "Poison" makes for a little variety and although released several years earlier, doesn't sound too out-of-place.

"Superbeast" by Rob Zombie sounds like every other White Zombie/Rob Zombie song. It's good, but not great.

Eminem's "Bad Influence" is one of the rapper's earliest singles. It has an infectious groove and rap-along verse. This was before Eminem became overexposed. It was a time when he was genuinely interesting.

Poweman 500's catchy "Nobody's Real" was the band's one big hit and enjoyed frequent airplay back in the late 90s. Although Powerman 500 wasn't the most memorable band, this song has stood up well.

Although Stroke (not "The Strokes") never got off the ground, their single "I Wish I Had" is one of the soundtrack's most memorable songs. This spacey mid-tempo number is akin to Pink Floyd.

"Sugar Kane" by Sonic Youth is a great song, but it seems a little out-of-place on a CD dominated by the likes of Creed, Limp Bizkit, and Korn.

Creed's "Long Way" is derivative of "Ten" era Pearl Jam. While this track isn't awful, it's a little dull and a rather anticlimactic way to end the album.

While the "End of Days" soundtrack isn't quite up there with the "Lost Highway," "Natural Born Killers" or "The Crow" soundtracks, it's still a good collection of songs. If you are an Axl Rose/Guns N' Roses fan, it's worth buying for "Oh My God" alone. Or, if you are already feeling nostalgic for the days of when Scott Stapp and Fred Durst dominated the radio, this CD is a good trip down memory lane.

Gave me faith in Chinese Democracy........2005-02-26

I don't care about the other songs. Limp Bizkit, Rob Zombie, Eminem, Everlast, Sonic Youth - fine artists but that's not why I paid attention to this soundtrack (or anyone else for that matter). There's a reason a special preview is included on the DVD just for the soundtrack.

There's a reason the preview features the NEW Guns N' Roses song "Oh My God" whilst scrolling text across the screen: "NEW MUSIC BY GUNS N' ROSES."

There's a reason fanboys were drooling on the Internet before the MTV Movie Awards because they knew there was going to be a 15-second clip commercial for End of Days featuring...yep, you guessed it..."Oh My God" by Guns N' Roses.

Wow, a dream come true. At the time (1999) it was the first original song in eight years.

Before then everyone had been speculating as to whether Chinese Democracy was in the works at all.

Well, it is. It's 2005 now and I truly, firmly believe it will be released soon. Geffen isn't going to waste their $13 million + by throwing out the tracks. And after a while they're going to make Axl cough up his material. I'm betting they won't pass $20 million.

The good news here is that "Oh My God" is one of the best Guns N' Roses songs ever recorded - ironic considering the departure of Slash, Matt and Duff.

However if you're not a GN'R snob and not completely against Axl, try opening your ears and really listening to this song. It's great. No, it doesn't have an awesome guitar solo. But it's really hard and gritty - what Appetite for Destruction would sound like had it been processed in the day and age of Manson and Reznor.

I think this is better than most of the stuff Manson's done and a helluva lot better than anything Trent's done. "Industrial rock" tends to give me a headache - just lots of noise. However this song proves Axl is not only still able to write good lyrics (read the words - pretty deep all considered!) but still able to sing, which I doubted after hearing him perform "Madagascar" and other songs in Rio. (His voice sounded awful then, but if it's any consolation the edited Oh My God track sounds like he did back in '93, only a bit edgier given the nature of the song.)

This is GN'R/Axl once again showing us that they/he are able to be more than "just" rock musicians. They did hardcore metal, they did rock, they did country-western, they did rap-metal, they did rock ballads, soft ballads, and now this.

I love Guns N' Roses.

If you missed 1998's Family Values tour featuring Incubus, Orgy, Limp Bizkit, Ice Cube, Rammstein, and Korn, fear not: 15 tracks from the aforementioned bands, plus "interludes," add up to well over an hour of neo-metal-angst-rap that can be enjoyed without venturing into a mosh pit. The CD is a cool deal in that it contains the best songs from each lineup, including radio hits such as Orgy's cover of New Order's "Blue Monday," Limp Bizkit's breakthrough version of George Michael's "Faith," and Rammstein's incendiary Germanic ode "Du Hast." Korn's medley of older material and singles from Follow the Leader prove why they're the headliners. In fact, this CD--and the tour itself--was partly based on the accurate assumption that Korn have such a strong influence that any band they tour with must appear Korn-approved kool to the kids. Both Ice Cube and Rammstein seem out of place, though kudos to Korn for including them. Ultimately, Family Values '98 is a great sampler for a metal-rap neophyte. --Katherine Turman

Customer Reviews:

Hahahahahaha!!.......2006-09-27

The Family Values Tour is a joke, just look at the bands on here: Korn, Limp Bizkit, Incubus, and Rammstein. NONE of them are any good, as they're all pathetic nu-metal s***. Only 12-year-olds would like this.

If you want a good tour CD, get Gigantour, that has real metal.

Orgy blows the comp. away!.......2006-06-01

And that's very true. Orgy had the best set here. KoRn was decent, Rammstein should have had more tracks as should have Incubus, but it was nice to see Bizkit drop some nice tracks not included on their albums like 'Cambodia' and 'Jump Around'. Ice Cube, no matter what you think, held his own here and is serves us a worthy track selection. Too bad 'Family Values' don't come around no more but with Limp sucking now a dayz it would be pointless. Still, this is a solid album with great live performances...could have been better but then again, it's very rare you hit something perfect.

decent.......2005-06-02

its decent but y is ice cube here he is the worst performer but korn ruled i dont like bizkit orgy was good rammestien was good but only one song dont like incubus

I don't own this, but where is the rammstein?.......2005-05-15

I see that Rammstein peformed on this tour, but where are the songs by them? OK, so they have Du Hast, but common, they have like 20 great songs! Korn and Bizkit suck, let us all understand that who aren't 12 year olds. Orgy and Rammstein need more tracks on this album! What is wrong with the people that made this???

must have been an off-night.......2005-01-18

i'll be first to say that i was totally unimpressed with the sets by korn and limp bizkit but extremely surprised when orgy played the best set by far on this entire album. like many people i bought it when it first came out in 1998/1999 at which point it quickly earned a place at the bottom of my pile of cd cases. i was still a fan of korn at this point and "nu-metal" in general before it was actually called that. what can i say, it all seems silly and stupid in retrospect (and it probably is) but for about a year it seemed like this kind of music was going to be THE new alternative movement in america; comparisons to nirvana and the seattle sound were rampant in music publications. as we all know, this forecast came to naught and record sales started to slip around the time the three year mark of the 1999 breakthroughs of many of these bands was reached. everyone likes to pretend they weren't picking their jaw up off the floor the first time they heard anything from the first three korn albums now that that kind of music has fallen out of favor into the bottomless pit of passe, but the energy from these bands was definately infectious for the time (except for limp bizkit, who always sucked). the first two orgy albums and first three korn albums still remain a guilty pleasure of mine, having come before they became the generic has-beens they are now. out of all the bands featured on this album, korn seems to be the only one (barring incubus) that even has a single leg left to stand on nowadays.

anyway, onto the music. most of the people that bought this album way back in 1998 bought it for either the korn or limp bizkit tracks, obviously. limp bizkit sounds ok but their music is another matter. in short, you can't polish a turd. korn, on the other hand, sound genuinely bad on many of the tracks. jonathan davis sings like he has the flu while fieldy seems to have doubled his bass volume when the engineer wasn't looking before the show. munky and head sound buried much farther in the mix than they should be. overall, a sense of muddiness prevails. the shot liver medley is about the only salvagable thing korn did with their alotted time on the album. the opening bagpipe strains of "shoots and ladders" float out ethereally and then proceed to fall into a mishmash of recent and older korn songs. ice cube and rammstein sound about like you'd expect them to, a huge-scale listening party of their album. this is to be expected; they aren't relying largely on unpredictable conventional instruments to create their on-stage sound and as such sound much more cohesive.

the biggest surprises by far on this entire live album came courtesy of then-newcomers orgy. they were still very much rookies when they played the first family values tour and even now they come across as strikingly tight, cohesive, punchy, and fresh. as such, orgy takes the cake for the best performance on the album.

case in point, i wouldn't run out and buy this album just because you like the bands on it. many of them have released other live volumes that are generally of higher quality to date. most of the music, although less than 6 years old, sounds sorely dated; especially given the shake-ups in the rock landscape over the past few years.

is it LB or RATM?.......2007-06-15

I keep listening and i dont hear LP's slyle anywhere in this album...
what happened? we will never know for sure...
but the more I listen to it, the more I like Rage against the machine.

3 stars...its not that is bad, it's that is not Limp Bizkit.

A Strong Effort...........2007-06-01

Indeed, this cd is a pleasant surprise. This album is only 29 minutes long, but as another reviewer suggested, Durst is best in small doses.

As for the band, they definitely benefit from the return of Wes Borland. In fact, I believe this album contains some of Limps strongest guitar hooks to date (if you don't believe me, check out "The Truth").

As for the vocals, Fred Durst definitely steals a page from Zach's (Rage Against the Machine) book. Although, I like Fred's approach because he doesn't whine about the oppressive government system and then suggest oppressive communist-socialism as the answer like Zach does.

In conclusion, check this EP out. I think you'll be surprised at how much you'll like it.

Borland is back, Bizkit is better, style is different.......2007-05-14

Well, the cool guitar riffs are back, courtesy of Wes. And this is a much better record than Results...but I don't know if I dig the musical direction. It is very evident that they are trying to be the new Rage Against the Machine, now that RATM is no more. They do alright, but RATM can't be touched. At least this brings LB back to some measure of respectability. This is probably the most mature album they have made, without all the infantile lyrics and gimics. Maybe they can still exist as a band, but I'll wait and see what they do next before judging them. I think they realized how laughable they were becoming and had to reinvent themselves. Maybe they will continue to add to this effort and become a new and improved LB. I won't lose any sleep about it, though, that's for sure.

I wonder if they'll actually release Part 2 after this failure.......2007-04-07

This album is just a rip of of Rage Against the Machine. Fred Durst has once again shown himself to be out of touch with reality by picking up from where rap-metal started even though the genre has been dead for 4 years now. And one of the main reasons it's dead is because of people like him. Most other nu-metal bands have realised this and have recently denounced rap. Notice how Korn has recently said that their new album is going to be more "progressive"? It's because they've realised that nu-metal is dead. Fred Durst, on the other hand, is going backwards to where rap-metal started off. He is so out of touch with reality that he can't even realise that he killed his own genre.

The lyrics are a result of Fred Durst's pathetic attempt to be deep and meaningful. In the end they just come out as shallow and contrived. Fred Durst has realised that his fans have grown up and that he can't write immature lyrics anymore. I mean, most of his fans must've been about 10-12 years old when Significant Other came out in 1999 to actually like it. It's now 2007. You do the math.

But the fact is, most of Limp Bizkit's fans are old enough to realise that Limp Bizkit was nothing but a commercial fad aimed at people in their early teens. Most of them are embarassed that they ever listened to Limp Bizkit. So in the end, no matter how much Fred Durst changes his sound or lyrics, he cannot change the fact that his 15 minutes of fame are up.

So what is the moral of the story? Going with the trends will result in short term success and a short-lived career. But for long term success, there's no substitute for musical integrity.

RIP Limp Bizkit.......2007-03-25

This was the first CD I have ever bought that I honestly regret buying. I wasted my money on this one. Every song is the exact same, with Fred writing even crappier lyrics. If you like limp, Chocolate Starfish was their best album. Do not buy this one. Limp Bizkit is dead.

This is great!!
It's not bad...it's vomatrocious
It's actually... funny.
Glad i stayed away from this one.
It's like Fred Durst took a dump in a cd recorder and called it "good".

Most remix albums are irrelevant or just plain awful. Fortunately, Limp Bizkit's first remix album is neither. But with high-profile remixers drawn mostly from the hip-hop world, there's not much room for error. Timbaland adds a dark industrial edge to "Take a Look Around," P. Diddy amps up the bass line on "My Way," while Butch Vig's version of "Nookie" has a decidedly 1980s electronic flavor. Best of all, though, is the Neptunes' take on "N2gether Now." Its flowered-up, old-school hip-hop presentation makes it the cheeriest thing Fred Durst's ever been involved with. In fact, the only people who don't seem to have a handle on the remixing task are those in the band: DJ Lethal's efforts--with the exception of an energetic "Counterfeit"--are irrelevant, while Durst's "Faith/Fame" remix is just plain awful. Maybe they should stick to churning out the raw material that's sold millions of albums, and leave the remixing to the professionals. --Ted Kord

Customer Reviews:

This is great!!.......2007-03-12

This has many great remixes of already great songs. Basically everthing is enjoyable on this. My personal favorites are the Counterfeit, Crushed, and Take A Look Around remixes, but like I said it is all really great!! Finally in response to all the people who have given this a bad review I have to say you all make me sick. This CD is great, and the only reason you don't like this is because you don't Limp bizkit anyway for some stupid reason so of course you don't like their remix CD. I bet a bunch of you people have not even heard this CD, anyway!!

It's not bad...it's vomatrocious.......2006-05-16

Even the thought of Limp Bizkit making a remix album is funny. If Fred Durst and his band hadn't sold out before this, there's no question about it now. And everybody hated their "Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water" album, so why would LB (or anybody) think that some bad songs would somehow be better if they're "remixed"?

Not surprisingly, Limp Bizkit's first--and hopefully only--remix disc does not improve upon any of the band's past effots. In fact, "New Old Songs" is composed of sixteen completely unlistenable songs which actually make Limp Bizkit sound worse than they really are. Some normally decent songs (like "Nookie," "Breakstuff," "Rearranged," "Take a Look Around") are absolutely butchered on this C.D., and the bad songs (i.e. "Rollin'") are made even worse! Plus, as if one remix weren't enough, why would you want (1, 2, 3, 4...) FIVE, count 'em FIVE (!), versions of "My Way?"

The Neptunes' remix of "Nookie" is definitely in the running for the worst song ever. Even a Limp Bizkit diehard would be very hard pressed not to laugh out loud when a female voice comes on (around the 2:30 mark) and sings "noookieee." Next, the "Take a Look Around" remix loses all of the original's good guitar and bass riffs, and the "Breakstuff" remix sounds so poppy and fluffy, the violent lyrics sound ridiculously out of place. Then there's "Faith/Fame," which has been floating around since 1999. This remix doesn't have any of the catchy hooks or raw emotion or angst of the original. Finally, "Rollin'" continues the downward spiral. This song sounded very stupid when it was in its original form, and it was even worse when it was remixed with Red Man and Method Man, so why did Fred feel we needed to hear it once again?

"New Old Songs" is so annoying, ridiculous, embarrassing, and all around excrutiating to listen to, it can't even be a recommended purchase to hardcore fans. And it is so terrible, you shouldn't even recommend this disc to your worst enemy! It's worth hearing a couple of the songs, but just for a few laughs and so you know how God awful this C.D. is!

It's actually... funny........2006-03-22

I'm glad i don't own this one, but i only listened the samples without caring any of your comments. The samples were actually mad funny, stupid robot sound effects on the background while this whiny kid is trying to rap with his whiny kind of way over lame beats. Butch Vig's Remix of the Nookie sounded most hilarious. No question, this was a lazy attempt of stealing pocket money from silly kids who loved limp bizkit back then. Do we even need to mention how "results may vary" was the final nail in the coffin? Okay, nowadays they've been trying to make another comeback with some poor effort of an EP and all that greatest hits stuff. That's not gonna success... Once fred durst made himself a clown, will he always be remembered as a clown. No need to try comebacks, because no one takes them seriously anymore. That's the way when you're living in the popular music industry.

Glad i stayed away from this one........2006-02-17

I have never been the greatest limp bizkit fan, but everything deserves a chance. I've heard clips from this album, and i wish i hadn't. If there was a way to build a time machine that allowed me to go back in time, i would save myself ten minutes and warn the old me to never EVER listen to this garbage. I don't understand why hard hitters like p diddy, the neptunes, and the dust brothers allowed themselves to partner up with the greatest wigger alive, fred durst. Get it throuhg your head, fred: YOU AREN'T BLACK. SO PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THE LOVE IF HUMANITY, STOP PRETENDING! If i were any of them, i would not want my name on this disgustingly wretched album. So with that being said, stay away from this album as if were an STD.

It's like Fred Durst took a dump in a cd recorder and called it "good"........2005-11-24

I don't think I have to preach to this choir. If you have read all 1,000 reviews of this album you will realize that this album isn't even worth the plastic it was made out of. To be honest, I don't remember how I even got this album (I sure as hell know if I did buy it I didn't pay more than 50 cents for it). The beats sound terrible, the songs sound terrible, Limp Bizkit sounds terrible. People will call this band the Warrant of the late 90's early 00's. (Except Warrant was a hell of a lot better than this crap.)
