Been listening to some Limp Bizkit lately, and also the cover of Blue Eyes.

Have also seen LB live.

Anyone else missing LB/FD ont he scene at the moment ?

I think he has an amazing voice when he properly sings, and love the whole rap/rock thing that is LB.

They have thier moments, I must admit and they are a good initial step into the world of heavy metal for the un-intiated. The early material is the best break stuff, faith, nookie and its ilk is definitely something that should sampled!!

Mmm. I dont know, I think all talented folk are highly strung, and at the end of the day, you only get to see the side of them that is reported.

Mate of mine is a pitch perfect guitar hero, really blows everyone away when he plays, but, yes, at home, can be (is) a prima donna.

Yes this is true but are we discussing him or the music?

I'm probably wrong but care little of listening to tts even if they do have talent. I'm a bit stubborn that way. The World needs less of his sh1t. Sorry.

His music appealed to me when I was 15, now I use "Significant Other" as a drinks coaster. And he's a cock.

He's probably a cock, but who cares. Some of his songs are good.

I particularly like Break Stuff.

I saw them a fair time ago, and he disappeared into the crowd, to reappear right in front of me during 'Faith'. The energy he commanded from the crowd was massive. Good memories, if nothing more.

Bearable for 5 minutes when they arrived, but just became a joke and have no relevance to today's metal scene. Although their cover of Faith was rather good.

They have had their moments, their cover of Faith was fun and Counterfeit, Break Stuff and Nookie are all good boneheaded mosh to when you've had a few beers and Boiler was actually a pretty good song, the rest of it, ie. Rollin', My Way et al are all pretty terrible IMHO

He is an incredible business man first and foremost - those round him apprently reckon that he was so tapped into what the kids wanted that he served his music on a plate for sales rather than music for passion's sake.. no doubting a talented dude but lost credibility

Enjoy 'Break Stuff' and 'Rolling', but much of his stuff is a bit puerile TBH.

No arguing with the superior cover of 'Faith' though!!!
