Are u telling me a bad white rapper, got a bad "kid and play" hair cut, got ears on his head, turned bad break dancer, got married, joined the military and immediately quit, had a kid, got divorced, turned back into a bad white rapper, became a bad tattoo "artist", went back to being a bad dancer, became a bad DJ, joined a band that rhymes with"Chimp Wizkit", burned out as fast as Woodstock 99' and made the best Devan Sawa movie and Worst John Travolta movie simultaneously.....thats the origin story for Fred Durst? Ok..that tracks!
Kids today won’t know what it’s like to buy a new CD..open it and read thru the art of the booklet. Then pop it in and immerse yourself in the songs of your favorite bands. And listen over and over and over.
although i was born in 2006, i always had a connection to music from the 1990s, and 2000s. i have many cds, and i can say i get the excitement of new cds, i love the art, and i love reading the lyrics even though i know them. i love reading the thanks notes at the end of the booklet because the artists leaves little messages.. i love it so much!! i ask for cd’s for christmas and my birthday. it’s the best ever. i recently got significant other and i opened it so excitedly and i can’t wait for more :3 i even burn my own cd’s and give them to my friends and family
I even have this cassette tape on my yellow Walkman, because it was hard to run back in the day with a disk man without its skipping so cassette was much better for running
He was destined to do that, from the year he made that demo video to the year they hit it he stuck with it, you got to give person that has that dedication
Mainly it was being Friends with Jonathan Davies at a time when Jonathan Davies got ANYTHING he wanted from his label because Korn was arguably bigger than even Metallica at that time.
They might not be hitting the record sales, or topping the charts like they once were, but head to any Limp Bizkit show, and it'll still be one of the best shows you watch live. Nobody can get the crowd hyped and pumping like Fred can.
Just seen them at gunnersbury I have never been to a concert where everyone in crowd so mental for them and pendulum were also Incredible I'm seein them in sacramento at aftershock! Unreal!
Just saw them at Wembley 2023. One of the best gigs ever. Limp Bizkit, the band everyone loves to hate but those in the know know just how good they are.
Same bro. Saw them for the first time ever just the other week. I initially bought tickets to go see megadeth, and limp bizkit played afterwards. Megadeth was low energy, disappointing but I get it they’re old. Limp is old too, but they fuckin killed it. Best live show ever. Insane energy and breakdowns. I’m on a crusade to bring Justice to limp bizkit name 😂
Never understood the hate towards LB. Their songwriting progress by far surpasses most of the metal being released these days where everything is formulaic. No other band sounded back then like LB, no other band can sound like them. Great guitar riffs, drum beats coupled with cool bass lines, and once you get past Fred Durst's douchebaggery, you can find some great lyric content there. Any band would kill to have the combination of talent LB had. Yes, had, because everything after Chocolate Starfish has been nothing to write home about.
Fred durst is the problem, he's surrounded by talented musicians but he himself isn't a musician. His lyrics suck and he sounds like a cat being tazed.
If you weren’t there during that time, then you just don’t get it. Just like any time in music…And if you don’t believe LB was liked, take a look at the 90’s live videos. You don’t have that many people jumping around for no reason.
The real issues of the Woodstock ‘99 festival have already been revealed. Much of the festival had the fans standing on hot concrete, they charged ridiculous prices for water and made it hard to get, and also did the same with food. I’m sure “Break stuff” might not of helped but the lack of food, water, and excessive heat had already taken the toll on the audience before Limp Bizkit came on. Red Hot Chili Peppers were the ones to first notice what was going on and address it. The producers of the festival should have been the ones blamed and held accountable. There’s a documentary on it.
Yep unfortunately the band was an easier scapegoat then going after the promoters. It happens constantly. Yes there are times the artist is responsible aka Travis Scott but sometimes go directly to the source promoters
I’ve always had love for LB. However, it wasn’t till recently I started to hear some of the guitar riffs and quickly realized I took this band for granted. I’m even a bigger fan of these guys now.
Sometimes I hate the way the world works. After 2003 music changed not necessarily in a bad way but that 99 to 2003 stretch of life as a kid growing up on this music and loving these times was incredible. I wish I could go back man. Korn, LB, Eminem, WWF when it was good...ugh..I hate time
Imo that period of musical excenlence was 90-00 Multiple golden ages in different genres...End of hairmetal being replaced by grunge, trash and Nu Metal. Rap and hiphop broke through to mainstream. EDM broke through to mainstream in Europe. I enjoyed it all
@@Qwerty2OG Ha I have you both beat. It was the 80s guys, that was "IT". Metallica, Maiden, Cru, and so many,many more. My metal birthed your metal lol. Girls were ink and piercing free, no one took pills or meth, (we fucking drank though), and life was pretty care free. It's all subjective I guess.
I absolutely love Limp Bizkit. I worked the Family Values tour in 1998. I almost got arrested with John Otto in Denver for walking down the street with his paintball gun and going into a paintball store. John told the police it was him. He's truly a straight up, good guy.
I’m an old school metal head. I started listening to metal back before Priest sharpened the heavy metal sword. Around 1978. I was there when NWOBHM swept through and there to witness the birth of thrash/speed/death metal. I loved it all. When nu-metal hit the scene, I was open to it. But with Pantera reigning in the 90’s, nu-metal wasn’t my “go to” metal fix. But I did enjoy Korn, Static X and Limp Bizkit and Hed Pe (criminally underrated) . And even purchased their CD’s at times. I would gladly support any band that keeps heavy music alive. Today, at 56 yrs old, I still like any band that plays heavy music (metal core, death core, whatever ) Currently listening to Slaughter to Prevail, Lorna Shore, Wage War and some Emmure. And there’s thousands of other killer bands out there making contemporary metal. I don’t try to sub-categorize metal into a million different genres. If it hits you in the face like a nail spiked baseball bat, it’s metal. This old dude is just happy to see young kids keeping music heavy. When I see young bands headbanging likes it’s 1984, it gives me faith in humanity. Metal heads need to stick together. There’s no room for metal elitists when the chips are down. I’m just glad there’s a younger generation ready to answer the call. Go heavy or go home. Metal for life, FTW🤘🏻
Bad ass man. I grew up with slayer, sepultura, and even heavier like deicide and cannibal coarse. I also loved beastie boys, Krs one and wu-tang. I’m 41 now and listening to zero rap, not at all what it used to be and turning my 12 year old on to rage against the machine and nofx. Huge variety of music. I love everything in between. I’ll be dying while listening to my metal
@@markfowler5075 Yep Slayer, Metallica, Pantera and Sepultura opened the way for me at 14...Now 46 and listen to so many bands. It's like an addiction really for me. I'm constantly finding new music. At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Brutal Death but will still put on some punk or old school rap every now and then. Music is my medication when I feel low. Currently loving Analepsy, Crown Magnetar and Gutrectomy. 🤘
@@Wicked_R correct and not one fucking mention off them on this video. . Old school metal head here, grew up in LA, seem Metallica open for other bands and years later started a small riot at one off their shows by playing hacky sack with an empty coors party ball in the parking lot. Great times
I feel like Fred Durst would have been successful no matter what he had pursued. He just has that drive and doesn't let any shortcomings hold him back.
@@JJ-ze6vb yes but that's exactly the point. He spotted Wes' talent and recruited him. He's not a talented vocalist but he's an excellent A&R guy and a pretty shrewd businessman
I don't care what anybody says this band is fucking awesome. Other metalheads always rip on this band, but it's funny all the musicians I know appreciate the shit out of them. Funny thing about the metal community seems like the listeners are very close-minded but the players are open to just about anything
@@midnight347 bro you can't even call it gatekeeping that's just fucking ignorant, in the world of the internet there's no such thing as gatekeeping in music anymore. If anybody uses the term gatekeeping it means they're not good enough that they're fucking instrument or they're not talented enough to come up with good ideas to convey to everybody else. There's no gatekeeping anymore time and time again bands prove that you don't need the record industry for shit, and if you want to say anything about algorithms it's got nothing to do with what type of band it is that everything to do with whoever program that algorithm and what message they want put across or not but you can get around that too if you have half a brain
I love to watch your videos, because it's not just well known mainstream info on bands and artists, there's a lot of background insight and links between careers, locations and events that happened, I appreciate much. Thanks for offering independent views w/ these documentations, and about the business. Cheers from Germany, Susan Ville (former artist manager)
The problem is the all this information is corrupt, every damn bit of it. I know Fred and was there in the beginning. Limp Bizcut played a a local metal bar venue Spikes Dog house every Friday and,Saturday night for a year. He was never a tattoo artist his best friend was. All this video is fake news
Yeah, I remember sitting through Dave Matthews who put on the worst live performance I've seen in my life, then LB came out and made everything better. Then Kid Rock came out and was almost as bad as Dave Matthews. Since then I've seen Hinder who is probably worse than all of them. I guess what I'm saying is my girlfriends have really bad taste in music. ha ha
@@aaronposter6852 i wouldnt exactly say it was unfair. its unfair to BLAME what happened on them entirely, but they absolutely certainly fanned the flames. i dunno about the rest of the band but fred durst absolutely knew what he was doing to the crowd. fred should be crucified for that to some degree.
Limp Bizkit is fucking awesome. You can't change my mind. When I was in high school, one of my classmate bought their first CD and man, it was instant love.
As a very long time limp fan, I’m very impressed with the quality and facts stated in this video! Great work man can’t wait to check out your other videos
I think fred durst was so lame and a try hard and had lame lyrics. The rest of the band was amazing. Put chino moreno in front of tge members of limo bizkit without durst, or put brandon boyd and you have one of the greatest bands of all time.
Ask Fred durst…. He ran his mouth way to much to the wrong people way to early in his career….not to mention he made grudge music… that type of music was just short lived… I myself was a fan but between his mouth and the inability to adapt he was doomed from the beginning
Love their music especially in the gym. Gets me pumped every time. I dont think they are as successful as they once were but their recent shows look like a good time. Don’t be surprised if they make a comeback.
Give a MASSIVE round of applause to the creator of this channel for putting so much work into these videos that highlight such a unique and unforgettable time in music history. The nu-metal era may be gone, but the music from that time, timeless.
Nu-Metal is not really gone, it's just not as popular. Rock stations just aren't as popular and neither is the entire rock scene. But that's ok it's back where it belongs for us outcast.
@@t3chninja_official the metal scene is doing amazing right now. More specifically the metalcore and deathcore scenes are thriving. Hell, Lorna Shore is playing lollapalooza this year.
Music timeless?.....c'mon, be really........they Are very Good but riffs Are so simple, lirics.....mmm so so, but they would be forgoten.........the Best thing about LB Are Wes Makeup........i mean its fuckin Art!!!
Kids these days will never understand how cool Fred Durst was 1998 to 2000. Literally every kid was rocking a red yankees cap and wearing a "nookie patrol" t shirt. Edit: metal snobs and pretentious hipster check👇🏻
When the whole band met @interscope to sign their first contract, 5members = 20% ea. Fred showed up w/his attorney n demanded 51%, the rest of the band had to split 49% ! The band should united n not signed.
@@kaliguevara3147 here we are a couple decades later and looking at all the fans singing some of the dumbest lyrics ever recorded like it’s we are the champions. Meh, who cares, I’m proud to ignorantly shout the lyrics.
The period of 1999 to 2001 when they were one of the biggest bands in the world, nothing can take that away from them. No amount of hate or naysayers will ever touch it!
@@SovereignKing yeah....i think You right, but they should show up and just destroy the other bands.........but they didnt so limp bizkit did it for them!!!
The media hounded Fred so much back in the day. He was always kind to fans and respectful in interviews. People mistook the character he was in the band for his real person, he was blamed for what happened in Woodstock 99 and the accident in Big Day Out. Even his feuds in the music industry are justifiable, Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson made fun of him, Christina Aguilera was ungrateful with him, Britney denied her relationship with him and he was accused of being a liar, and her feud with Corey was to defend her friends from Korn in which Slipknot started the feud, not to mention that he didn't even make those comments publicly. The media and music industry tried to make him look like he was the worst, but anyone who is smart enough and knows the facts knows that this is not true.
Ahhhhhh, f*ck. I was loving this until the abrupt ending, as I had been eager to hear about the details surrounding Results May Vary and Wes' return for the Unquestionable Truth. Great work otherwise. *Please* do a part 2!
Watched them at Milkbar since 1995 when maybe 20 people were there. Had a tattoo done by Fred at Westside Tattoo and was there when he met Johnathan Davis swapping tats for demo tapes. It's a great story. They blew up when I left for the military. Next thing I know they were everywhere because of "Faith". Although "Counterfeit" and "Stuck" was their best songs. Very happy and blessed to be part of their beginnings.
I haven't heard an album yet by any genre that will ever touch Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog Flavored Water. Only album I can honestly say that every song was good. I can jam it on repeat all day long
Other albums that gave me the same feeling were Faithless' Reverence, Katatonia's The Great Cold Distance, Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory, and (the dragon) Tool's Lateralus.
Fred is still one of my favs to go see, family values tour,Woodstock 99 were just one of those memorable things of life, especially before 2001. His voice is always on point and seamless, amazing crowd entertainment. you're always gonna have a good time. I woke up this morning singing livin it up and now I'm here. 90s - mid 2000s were just phenomenal music choices for every genre that will send you back in time
I still have a middle school yearbook that I wrote “I ♥️ Wes Borland” all over lmao. Seeing Fred wearing an Etnies shirt really took me back too… To be young again. I miss those days.
I will always love Limp Bizkit. I remind, when I got the Chocolate Starfish CD as a birthday gift as a little kid. Not a doubt, that they influenced me.
How come you missed Nookie - the biggest single by LB and one of the most notorious songs of the late 90s, didn't talk about LB's biggest record so far "Significant Other" which is a 7x platinum album (bigger than Chocolate Starfish) that single handedly catapulted LB to stardom, not even a word about My Way, Behind Blue Eyes or other Bizkit's timeless classics, didn't mention the several featurings with prominent rappers that brought Metal and Hip Hop together and redefined a whole Era on mainstream music, completely ignored Gold Cobra and the most recent LB album "Still Sucks" and the band's new life?? I love the documentaries about bands on this channel and I was super excited awaiting for this one regarding the biggest Nü Metal band ever, but after watching it I feel kinda disappointed. I'd like to see a "part 2" if possible, about the hot topics that are missing on this one. Nevertheless, thanks for this piece. Hope to see more Nü Metal docs soon 🤘
I try and keep these documentaries to about 30 minutes which is not a lot of time to talk about a 20/30/40 year career for some artists so it's hard to pick what I think is the most important aspects of any artists career. I could easily put together an hour long documentary on every artist but then I feel people might become bored so it's a fine line to walk! I do appreciate the feedback though! Pantera is next and that will be longer than 30 minutes for sure.
@@RAWMUSICTV I totally understand that. I just feel that you gave much attention (and time on this video) to the band's formation and early years and focused less on the main topics that would come from 1999 onwards. I think it'd be even greater if those moments were covered on this video too. But that's just my humble feedback. Anyways, it's your channel, your work, your rules man. Thanks a lot for the share and for revisiting the journey of one of the greatest metal bands of all time 🙌 We need more of this type of content nowadays 🤘 Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
I appreciate the feedback man! To be honest, watching this one back it felt way to short and like I could have covered a lot more so some things I will consider in the future for sure! Obrigada!
@@RAWMUSICTV we can always learn something from it and improve. I'm sure it will keep getting better and better. Thank you for providing another documentary about another great band that impacted a whole generation 👏
@@RAWMUSICTV Just saying, I would absolutely love 60 minute docs of your content! It would be perfect length for most, and pt 2s could be done easily of previous bands covered!
This was a great documentary until the end. To end with “they stopped rolling a long time ago” when they just released an album, played the last lollapalooza, and are touring currently (they put on an incredible show and seemed to be having a lot of fun together) makes absolutely zero sense.
It's a play on words suggesting they are no longer at the height of fame they had when Rollin was released, because they are not. Not sure why wordplay is so confusing to so many people. They've released one album in ten years, not exactly what you call being prominent in the music industry anymore.
@@RAWMUSICTV even with the long lapses in albums, they still tour and have still remained very relevant. It was a good documentary but you failed with the ending. It didn't come across as just a play on words. It came across as a shot by someone that didn't know what they were talking about.
They are rolling fine today, seen em at Madison Square Garden recently. Place was loaded with older and young people. The new album Still Sucks, doesnt, and life is good all around it seems for them.
Saw them live many years ago with Eminem, Papa Roach and Xibit and it was a wicked kick ass show Regardless of what they do now in their prime they were kicking ass
@Troy I'm no expert but I sure do play... Now tell me which Alice in chains solo is hard to play? Oh that's right it's all easy slow catching riffs... Sure they were actually good in the 90s during the grunge era... But no level of Metallica
a lot of metal fans hated limp Bizkit bc they hated hip hop & rap & couldnt stand the combination. plus obvi they hated Fred durst attitude. i ❤️❤️❤️limp Bizkit. their music BANGs🔥🔥🔥
1st time I seen them was in Asbury Park NJ at the Warped Tour. I was 15 and my buddy Martin got tickets to go. We seen bands like Blink 182, Sick of it all, Bad Fish and No Doubt, The sound LB had and their look ( Wes Borland) stood out from a crowd of many popular artists that played that day. At the time DJ lethal was not present in the group. instead it was someone else I couldn't ID. I remember not being able to hear out of my ears for 2 days straight because we made our way to the front stage every chance we got! Thanks for the Great memories!
The fires at Woodstock weren't until the next night! They didn't tear down the sets and equipment until after the final act of Red Hot Chili Peppers. It's not LIMP BIZKIT's fault!
Great mini-doc overall but it would've been nice if Gold Cobra got a little screentime. Not to mention Bizkit coming back in 2021 with Still Sucks, going on tour and re-igniting their fanbase while earning new fans, etc.
As a 38 year old metal head i was right there for these times.. im more into Pantera, fear factory, old school metallica stuff but Limp and korn definitely deserve credit for everything they have done for the metal scene in general.. Pantera saved metal in the 90s then korn,limp and manson took over from there... Pantera is still easily the best tho... Rock on people..🤘
Dude I went and seen Korn last summer. One of the biggest concerts I’ve seen. I didn’t realize they were still that big. I’ve been dragged to popular pop/ rap concerts that didn’t nearly bring the same amount of people and the energy they got from the crowd
@@liljuanito123 bro stfu!! What year??!! And what venue? I saw Fear Factory in the late 90’s with Pantera headlining in SA too at Sunken Garden Theater. Wonder if it was the same show! Hell yeah man core memory opened 😂 first time I ever got high too 😂
Other local bands back then in Jax was Shinedown (a small local band at the time), Snagglepuss, Order By Chaos (OBC), Superfly Rodeo, Inferno, Pigeon Hole, and many many other amazing bands! Jacksonville is dead now. Just stupid country concerts at Dailys. No metal anywhere.
I ALWAYS appreciated Wes Bor staying in the band, it always looked like he was doing his own thing within the band, of course, but he never took off for good. Just amazes me how someone can craft his own thing, in a group not doing it…if that makes sense…
I remember going to this huge house party in 2007 while in college...this house had so many people in and around it I couldn't believe it still stood. The guy hosting the party had this kickass sound system in his house. Suddenly "Counterfeit" started coming over the speakers and as soon as it kicked in, the place just went nuts and it ended up being the best party I ever went to. It was a super diverse crowd and Limp Bizkit took it up ten notches and for whatever reason it never stopped being crazy after that.
Good doc. One complaint though, when you said florida wasnt exactly known as a breeding ground for metal you couldn't be more wrong. Florida, especially Jacksonville was one of the hottest spots in the scene at the time
Well that ending was abrupt. No mention of their 2005 EP, their 2011 and 2021 albums, and how they've continued touring. Right now they're on a big high again, playing to big crowds and headlining festivals.
Nu Metal still was hot in the mid 2000's with Slipknot Vol. 3 and Disturbed Ten Thousand Fists... System of a Down, Static X, Mudvayne, P.O.D. and others kept it going in the 2000's with good releases, maybe not as successful but secondary to whatever was #1 at the time (Emo??). As all the Nu Metal bands slowly attempted to change their sounds, distance themselves from the title and experiment like Linkin Parks Midnight 2007 album but even that has a few tracks I'd consider were unintentionally Nu Metal. The bands you mentioned that came after the Nu Metal waves was a straight up downgrade lol.. I put the Nu Metal era above the Grunge peak, the success of Nu Metal rivals the commercial success of metal in the 80's. It didn't come to an end January 2004 though Nu Metal could still be found and heard for the rest of the decade.
Saw them at Ozzfest 98.They had really just blown up a month or two before that. And were headliners. With MegaDeath, Soulfly, and Tool on the main stage. The small stage had Incubus, Snot, Hed PE, System of a Down. My first big concert that lasted all day into the night. As a teen. Crazy ass day. I saw so much insane shit in the crowd.
Never understood the hate for them. They’ve been my favorite band since I was 15. Sure Fred dust lyrics are cringy sometimes,they don’t take themselves seriously and enjoy what they do and they still have a huge following.
People pointing out about Fred's lyrics being cringy is pointing out the obvious. The band's intention has always been to write intentionally dumb and silly lyrics, Limp Bizkit is a dumb band and they have always admitted that.
@@nikobowling1606 literally memers before memes where a thing. I rather hear silly sarcastic lyrics i can laugh about then some wannabe deep/violent shit with way worse instrumentals..thats cringe material. but I like Primus for that aswell..so 😂
Say what you will about the lyrics and Fred's vocal style.. but the band's rhythm section with drummer John Otto and bassist Sam Rivers is absolute ace.. those guys could groove.
@@nikobowling1606 They don't hate the band or its music. They hate the bro that Fred represents. The Chad dude in a backward cap (because they get all the girls).
I love the Bizkit! They were a breath of fresh air in the 90s with grunge turned into contrived corporate pop. The look and sound of the band checked all the right boxes
I’m glad I got into Limp Bizkit before knowing anything about them or about the hate they faced, so I had a completely unbiased opinion and I can say that I loved them from the first time I’ve heard them, they have a very unique sound, even so different from the other bands in the same era.
Just came to see how the hell he became a Rec. executive but they didn’t go there…Also the riot thing happened the next day after the Red Hot Chili Peppers played…they did break some stuff during the limp b. set though…
people like to say nu metal was a bit cringe, but nah, it was awesome. that crunchy sound still sounds great imo. The emo wave that came after it was really cringe and awful. Panic at the disco and stuff like that, i mean listen to it now lmao its dreadful. Atleast some nu metal still kicks ass to this day.
22:45 the people at Woodstock 99 lit fires on night 3 when they were given candles. Limp Bizkit played day/night 2.. Also if you watch the entire Limp Bizkit Woodstock set Fred told the crowd to turn up but not be violent. He also told the crowd to help each other up if they fall down and to take care of each other. Blaming Limo Bizkit is false!
People don't hate Limp Bizkit. They hate the image that Fred Durst represents - the bro with the backward cap and the tattoo sleeves. I love that look, it's what real young men should aspire to be. Not fucking Ed Sheeran.
I remember seeing limp bizcuit open for helmet who opened for korn. When limp was playing everyone went outside to smoke and talk because they sounded like crap. At that concert they dumped boxes of those demo tapes that included 3 songs,, Counterfeit, Stuck and Pollution and that tape was STRAIGHT FIRE! So much that my new band that had just formed covered all three songs. Had to wait like 2 years maybe 3 before the 3 dollar bill CD came out and they had already toned it down from 11 on the demo to about 7 on the CD, I was so disappointed, they were sellouts before even their first CD came out. Also,, I remember PlayStation magazine used to always have demo discs included with their magazine,, you'd have to wait until next months issues to get secret codes to unlock stuff on last months demo CD, one of these unlock codes opened a music video of Got The Life by Korn. Just saying,, that always blew my mind.
Man I never really thought about this until now; when bands like Guns and Roses & Metallica dominated rock music but were then overcome by Nirvana and the grunge era began, and that music had it's 7 or 8 years before it too had an abrupt end and passed the batan to nu-metal. Nu-metal then had it's era BUT when that abruptly ended after 7-8 years or so, what was there to take over? Sure something did but never again since Nu-metal has there been another new brand of rock to really stick around long enough to where it defined an entire generation. 20 years from now will anyone be making, let alone watching, a documentary on "My Chemical Romance" "Jet" or "Fall Out Boy"?? ~Guns & Roses + Metallica etc - Hard Rock (owned rock music late 80s-early 90s) ~Nirvana+Sound Garden+Pearl Jam etc-Grunge (defined the 90s) ~ Korn + Limp Bizkit + Deftones etc - Nu-Metal (polluted the innocence of all adolescence from 97 -04) They were all very different from one another, yet they all naturally tranistioned from one to the other and those who loved all that music back then, still love that music today. Can't say the same about anything that's come after them

Badass!
Are u telling me a bad white rapper, got a bad "kid and play" hair cut, got ears on his head, turned bad break dancer, got married, joined the military and immediately quit, had a kid, got divorced, turned back into a bad white rapper, became a bad tattoo "artist", went back to being a bad dancer, became a bad DJ, joined a band that rhymes with"Chimp Wizkit", burned out as fast as Woodstock 99' and made the best Devan Sawa movie and Worst John Travolta movie simultaneously.....thats the origin story for Fred Durst? Ok..that tracks!
Just wait till you hear about Lollapalooza. Washed up for sure.
Kids today won’t know what it’s like to buy a new CD..open it and read thru the art of the booklet. Then pop it in and immerse yourself in the songs of your favorite bands. And listen over and over and over.
Chocolate Starfish, Sony Diskman, and some headphones was the perfect school bus ride in the morning!
This.
although i was born in 2006, i always had a connection to music from the 1990s, and 2000s. i have many cds, and i can say i get the excitement of new cds, i love the art, and i love reading the lyrics even though i know them. i love reading the thanks notes at the end of the booklet because the artists leaves little messages..
i love it so much!! i ask for cd’s for christmas and my birthday. it’s the best ever.
i recently got significant other and i opened it so excitedly
and i can’t wait for more :3
i even burn my own cd’s and give them to my friends and family
I even have this cassette tape on my yellow Walkman, because it was hard to run back in the day with a disk man without its skipping so cassette was much better for running
well this is stupid that’s untrue lol
I love how Fred Durst just hustled his way into the music industry.
I guess you can say he get Durst in their eyes. I'll see my way out
@@nikoguy BA-DUM-TISS
He was destined to do that, from the year he made that demo video to the year they hit it he stuck with it, you got to give person that has that dedication
that's just real talent💯
Mainly it was being Friends with Jonathan Davies at a time when Jonathan Davies got ANYTHING he wanted from his label because Korn was arguably bigger than even Metallica at that time.
They might not be hitting the record sales, or topping the charts like they once were, but head to any Limp Bizkit show, and it'll still be one of the best shows you watch live. Nobody can get the crowd hyped and pumping like Fred can.
I'm seeing them in august !! in London , so excited !
Have u seen Dexter Holland?!
Just seen them at gunnersbury I have never been to a concert where everyone in crowd so mental for them and pendulum were also Incredible I'm seein them in sacramento at aftershock! Unreal!
@@LindaDavies-v5faftershock was insane. Limp was definitely one of the best of the festival.
At least we have a soundtrack of our memories of the good old days .
They still going.. still churning out new stuff.. still making crowds go nuts. They are legends. AND.. they havnt changed their style. Excellent band
Just saw them at Wembley 2023. One of the best gigs ever. Limp Bizkit, the band everyone loves to hate but those in the know know just how good they are.
Was at the same gig, absolute gold
Epic 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wembley. Well that’s a blast from the past
Same bro. Saw them for the first time ever just the other week. I initially bought tickets to go see megadeth, and limp bizkit played afterwards. Megadeth was low energy, disappointing but I get it they’re old. Limp is old too, but they fuckin killed it. Best live show ever. Insane energy and breakdowns.
I’m on a crusade to bring Justice to limp bizkit name 😂
Just saw them last night. Amazing show. Love how the ticket says "Still sucks"
Never understood the hate towards LB. Their songwriting progress by far surpasses most of the metal being released these days where everything is formulaic. No other band sounded back then like LB, no other band can sound like them. Great guitar riffs, drum beats coupled with cool bass lines, and once you get past Fred Durst's douchebaggery, you can find some great lyric content there. Any band would kill to have the combination of talent LB had. Yes, had, because everything after Chocolate Starfish has been nothing to write home about.
Fred durst is the problem, he's surrounded by talented musicians but he himself isn't a musician. His lyrics suck and he sounds like a cat being tazed.
Saw them live with Metallica in L.A. they were really good. Yeah they’re are worst bands out there.
If you weren’t there during that time, then you just don’t get it. Just like any time in music…And if you don’t believe LB was liked, take a look at the 90’s live videos. You don’t have that many people jumping around for no reason.
@Geo S I know what you mean man, I miss those days so much.
“Hate trend”
The real issues of the Woodstock ‘99 festival have already been revealed. Much of the festival had the fans standing on hot concrete, they charged ridiculous prices for water and made it hard to get, and also did the same with food. I’m sure “Break stuff” might not of helped but the lack of food, water, and excessive heat had already taken the toll on the audience before Limp Bizkit came on. Red Hot Chili Peppers were the ones to first notice what was going on and address it. The producers of the festival should have been the ones blamed and held accountable. There’s a documentary on it.
The riots where one day after lb played the show
Who cares lol.
Yep unfortunately the band was an easier scapegoat then going after the promoters. It happens constantly. Yes there are times the artist is responsible aka Travis Scott but sometimes go directly to the source promoters
Came here to say this lol
FACTS
I’ve always had love for LB. However, it wasn’t till recently I started to hear some of the guitar riffs and quickly realized I took this band for granted. I’m even a bigger fan of these guys now.
Sometimes I hate the way the world works. After 2003 music changed not necessarily in a bad way but that 99 to 2003 stretch of life as a kid growing up on this music and loving these times was incredible. I wish I could go back man. Korn, LB, Eminem, WWF when it was good...ugh..I hate time
Funny, I was just thinking the same thing about 1980-90.
Well said
Imo that period of musical excenlence was 90-00 Multiple golden ages in different genres...End of hairmetal being replaced by grunge, trash and Nu Metal. Rap and hiphop broke through to mainstream. EDM broke through to mainstream in Europe. I enjoyed it all
@@Qwerty2OG Ha I have you both beat. It was the 80s guys, that was "IT". Metallica, Maiden, Cru, and so many,many more. My metal birthed your metal lol. Girls were ink and piercing free, no one took pills or meth, (we fucking drank though), and life was pretty care free. It's all subjective I guess.
@@donnie4191 One could also say...we took your metal and improved on it. All hail the D-tune. It's all in the EAR of the beholder. ;)
I absolutely love Limp Bizkit. I worked the Family Values tour in 1998. I almost got arrested with John Otto in Denver for walking down the street with his paintball gun and going into a paintball store. John told the police it was him. He's truly a straight up, good guy.
Where I come from, we'd call him an "Ehrenmann" (man of honour)
I have the DVD of that tour with Korn, Rammstein, Ice Cube, etc.
Not to mention a beast of a drummer.
I can believe this because he got arrested in Michigan for a BB gun incident
He forgot to mention, Limp Bizkit still bring in huge crowds when playing live to this day;
Not really huge. To be honest
@@soneblac1 for a 90s band yes... huge
In Russia?
That's because they play festivals where there is already a crowd there for the festival.
I'm glad to hear that they still play. Semper Fi
I’ll never forget watching Limp Bizkit at Woodstock 99. A memory unlike any other when it comes to live music.
I didn't get to see them at Woodstock but I've seen them twice and the energy is unreal. Definitely top shows on my list.
Absolutely! I’d love to see them again! It’s on my bucket list for sure
I’m an old school metal head. I started listening to metal back before Priest sharpened the heavy metal sword. Around 1978. I was there when NWOBHM swept through and there to witness the birth of thrash/speed/death metal. I loved it all. When nu-metal hit the scene, I was open to it. But with Pantera reigning in the 90’s, nu-metal wasn’t my “go to” metal fix. But I did enjoy Korn, Static X and Limp Bizkit and Hed Pe (criminally underrated) . And even purchased their CD’s at times. I would gladly support any band that keeps heavy music alive. Today, at 56 yrs old, I still like any band that plays heavy music (metal core, death core, whatever ) Currently listening to Slaughter to Prevail, Lorna Shore, Wage War and some Emmure. And there’s thousands of other killer bands out there making contemporary metal. I don’t try to sub-categorize metal into a million different genres. If it hits you in the face like a nail spiked baseball bat, it’s metal. This old dude is just happy to see young kids keeping music heavy. When I see young bands headbanging likes it’s 1984, it gives me faith in humanity. Metal heads need to stick together. There’s no room for metal elitists when the chips are down. I’m just glad there’s a younger generation ready to answer the call. Go heavy or go home. Metal for life, FTW🤘🏻
Bad ass man. I grew up with slayer, sepultura, and even heavier like deicide and cannibal coarse. I also loved beastie boys, Krs one and wu-tang. I’m 41 now and listening to zero rap, not at all what it used to be and turning my 12 year old on to rage against the machine and nofx. Huge variety of music. I love everything in between. I’ll be dying while listening to my metal
@@markfowler5075 Yep Slayer, Metallica, Pantera and Sepultura opened the way for me at 14...Now 46 and listen to so many bands. It's like an addiction really for me. I'm constantly finding new music. At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Brutal Death but will still put on some punk or old school rap every now and then. Music is my medication when I feel low. Currently loving Analepsy, Crown Magnetar and Gutrectomy. 🤘
Rage invented nu metal back in 92 by the time it was called Nu metal it was 5 year old.Once Woodstock 99 was over it was dead.
@@Wicked_R correct and not one fucking mention off them on this video. .
Old school metal head here, grew up in LA, seem Metallica open for other bands and years later started a small riot at one off their shows by playing hacky sack with an empty coors party ball in the parking lot. Great times
@@diviningrod2671 fuck yeah man I'm jealous as fuck.
I feel like Fred Durst would have been successful no matter what he had pursued. He just has that drive and doesn't let any shortcomings hold him back.
check out his movie The Education of Charlie Banks. Very good.
Without Borland he never would’ve made any great song.
@@JJ-ze6vb Yeah the muscians in LB definately helps to cover up his...less than stellar, musical ability.
@@JJ-ze6vb yes but that's exactly the point. He spotted Wes' talent and recruited him. He's not a talented vocalist but he's an excellent A&R guy and a pretty shrewd businessman
1000%
I don't care what anybody says this band is fucking awesome. Other metalheads always rip on this band, but it's funny all the musicians I know appreciate the shit out of them. Funny thing about the metal community seems like the listeners are very close-minded but the players are open to just about anything
I call them close minded metal gate keepers and there are way too many out there.
Any true musician knows exactly how talented these guys are. Especially Wes.
Wes is pure genius on guitar.
Meh.
@@midnight347 bro you can't even call it gatekeeping that's just fucking ignorant, in the world of the internet there's no such thing as gatekeeping in music anymore. If anybody uses the term gatekeeping it means they're not good enough that they're fucking instrument or they're not talented enough to come up with good ideas to convey to everybody else. There's no gatekeeping anymore time and time again bands prove that you don't need the record industry for shit, and if you want to say anything about algorithms it's got nothing to do with what type of band it is that everything to do with whoever program that algorithm and what message they want put across or not but you can get around that too if you have half a brain
I love to watch your videos, because it's not just well known mainstream info on bands and artists, there's a lot of background insight and links between careers, locations and events that happened, I appreciate much. Thanks for offering independent views w/ these documentations, and about the business. Cheers from Germany, Susan Ville (former artist manager)
The problem is the all this information is corrupt, every damn bit of it. I know Fred and was there in the beginning. Limp Bizcut played a a local metal bar venue Spikes Dog house every Friday and,Saturday night for a year. He was never a tattoo artist his best friend was. All this video is fake news
New album is awesome. They still going strong. Respect for not selling out and still making music for fun.
Their Woodstock set was one of the most epic live performances ever.
Fred and the boys were on point that day.
Yep.was there.they owned it
They were crucified after that performance. Unfairly imo. Ended up being a legendary moment in pop culture history.
Yeah, I remember sitting through Dave Matthews who put on the worst live performance I've seen in my life, then LB came out and made everything better. Then Kid Rock came out and was almost as bad as Dave Matthews. Since then I've seen Hinder who is probably worse than all of them. I guess what I'm saying is my girlfriends have really bad taste in music. ha ha
Yeah that’s when the sexual assaults and property damage heated up
Totally,literally hot set
@@aaronposter6852 i wouldnt exactly say it was unfair. its unfair to BLAME what happened on them entirely, but they absolutely certainly fanned the flames. i dunno about the rest of the band but fred durst absolutely knew what he was doing to the crowd. fred should be crucified for that to some degree.
Limp Bizkit is fucking awesome. You can't change my mind. When I was in high school, one of my classmate bought their first CD and man, it was instant love.
Include me
1 million copies in ONE WEEK? Thats insane. That Significant Other album was actually really good.

As a very long time limp fan, I’m very impressed with the quality and facts stated in this video! Great work man can’t wait to check out your other videos
I live in Jax and had just moved here in the 90's when Bizkit was just a local band. It was a awesome time period.
I genuinely love this band. Never understood the hate, it's just good fun 🎸
Me either, just like You said Good fun......isnt that the Point....i mean they Are not Pink Floyd......
Same here.
I think fred durst was so lame and a try hard and had lame lyrics. The rest of the band was amazing. Put chino moreno in front of tge members of limo bizkit without durst, or put brandon boyd and you have one of the greatest bands of all time.
Ask Fred durst…. He ran his mouth way to much to the wrong people way to early in his career….not to mention he made grudge music… that type of music was just short lived… I myself was a fan but between his mouth and the inability to adapt he was doomed from the beginning
I liked them. Im into hardcore and most people into Hardcore think they suck. But I always liked them
Always will have love for Limp Bizkit, these, Korn and Linkin Park helped me through school!
same here. I was a huge fan of Manson, 311, Pearl Jam, NIN, and Nirvana as well. Got me through some shit in school.
Love their music especially in the gym. Gets me pumped every time. I dont think they are as successful as they once were but their recent shows look like a good time. Don’t be surprised if they make a comeback.
Same. I listen too to heavy metal but limp bizkit is just different that it makes you lift more weight if this makes sense.
they have definitly made a comeback I could sell my tickets for 10x what they are worth today but I would rather see them play the new album.
Just out of interest which songs in particular are you talking about?
@@jamespasco132 Just out of interest which songs in particular are you talking about?
The latest album is insane to blast through a gym session to!
Give a MASSIVE round of applause to the creator of this channel for putting so much work into these videos that highlight such a unique and unforgettable time in music history. The nu-metal era may be gone, but the music from that time, timeless.
Nu-Metal is not really gone, it's just not as popular. Rock stations just aren't as popular and neither is the entire rock scene. But that's ok it's back where it belongs for us outcast.
@@t3chninja_official the metal scene is doing amazing right now. More specifically the metalcore and deathcore scenes are thriving. Hell, Lorna Shore is playing lollapalooza this year.

Dude has the best voice for docs. Love these vids. Keep up the great work 👍
Kids these days will never understand how cool Fred Durst was 1998 to 2000. Literally every kid was rocking a red yankees cap and wearing a "nookie patrol" t shirt.
Edit: metal snobs and pretentious hipster check👇🏻
Lmfao, no, we were laughing at those nerds 😂
Why is that cool? And he had zero talent to make him look more like a idiot...
@@xp8969 no you weren't.
@@SupraRyyeah, we definitely were 😂
No. They were clowns then, they are clowns now. Lmao.
Whoa! Fred and Wes were the face of the band but John and Sam were the the low end driving push of the entire sound.
When the whole band met @interscope to sign their first contract, 5members = 20% ea. Fred showed up w/his attorney n demanded 51%, the rest of the band had to split 49% ! The band should united n not signed.
@@kaliguevara3147 here we are a couple decades later and looking at all the fans singing some of the dumbest lyrics ever recorded like it’s we are the champions. Meh, who cares, I’m proud to ignorantly shout the lyrics.
The period of 1999 to 2001 when they were one of the biggest bands in the world, nothing can take that away from them. No amount of hate or naysayers will ever touch it!
You Got that right!!!........one thing i don't understand, why Deftones didnt play on woodstock 1999?.........do You know?
@@SovereignKing yeah....i think You right, but they should show up and just destroy the other bands.........but they didnt so limp bizkit did it for them!!!
i'm from Germany, in the 90's we listened to the Limp Bizkit albums up and down, even today i still like to listen to them, every era...
I'm legitimately shocked that this channel only has 50k subscribers.
The media hounded Fred so much back in the day. He was always kind to fans and respectful in interviews. People mistook the character he was in the band for his real person, he was blamed for what happened in Woodstock 99 and the accident in Big Day Out. Even his feuds in the music industry are justifiable, Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson made fun of him, Christina Aguilera was ungrateful with him, Britney denied her relationship with him and he was accused of being a liar, and her feud with Corey was to defend her friends from Korn in which Slipknot started the feud, not to mention that he didn't even make those comments publicly. The media and music industry tried to make him look like he was the worst, but anyone who is smart enough and knows the facts knows that this is not true.
Dude, You Can play song called "Break Stuff" to a milion Drunk and drugs people........my opinion.....
@@sandorhartig3957 Then don't book a band with songs called things like "Break Stuff" then act shocked when they play it.
Ahhhhhh, f*ck.
I was loving this until the abrupt ending, as I had been eager to hear about the details surrounding Results May Vary and Wes' return for the Unquestionable Truth.
Great work otherwise.
*Please* do a part 2!
Watched them at Milkbar since 1995 when maybe 20 people were there. Had a tattoo done by Fred at Westside Tattoo and was there when he met Johnathan Davis swapping tats for demo tapes. It's a great story. They blew up when I left for the military. Next thing I know they were everywhere because of "Faith". Although "Counterfeit" and "Stuck" was their best songs. Very happy and blessed to be part of their beginnings.
Good documentary on the rise and fall of LB, but 2021/22 has seen the rise again of this band. LB are very popular again and well respected too.
I haven't heard an album yet by any genre that will ever touch Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog Flavored Water. Only album I can honestly say that every song was good. I can jam it on repeat all day long
Other albums that gave me the same feeling were Faithless' Reverence, Katatonia's The Great Cold Distance, Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory, and (the dragon) Tool's Lateralus.
Come on. These words are a child’s words that made zero sense or were just childish. Why do you think they made fun of him on starfish
Absolutely. I actually really enjoy listening to Ben Stiller high as heck laughing uncontrollably. I would really like to revisit that Era.
Damn that’s terrible
Limp change my life during the 90’s. Thank you for the channel
Glad I saw LB 4 times on their current tour! Great shows🔥🔥🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fred is still one of my favs to go see, family values tour,Woodstock 99 were just one of those memorable things of life, especially before 2001. His voice is always on point and seamless, amazing crowd entertainment. you're always gonna have a good time. I woke up this morning singing livin it up and now I'm here. 90s - mid 2000s were just phenomenal music choices for every genre that will send you back in time
I still have a middle school yearbook that I wrote “I ♥️ Wes Borland” all over lmao. Seeing Fred wearing an Etnies shirt really took me back too…
To be young again. I miss those days.
I will always love Limp Bizkit. I remind, when I got the Chocolate Starfish CD as a birthday gift as a little kid. Not a doubt, that they influenced me.
I was waiting for this.

@@johnniewasr5740 look up suicide silence, Chelsea grin, job for a cowboy, and infant annihilator
How come you missed Nookie - the biggest single by LB and one of the most notorious songs of the late 90s, didn't talk about LB's biggest record so far "Significant Other" which is a 7x platinum album (bigger than Chocolate Starfish) that single handedly catapulted LB to stardom, not even a word about My Way, Behind Blue Eyes or other Bizkit's timeless classics, didn't mention the several featurings with prominent rappers that brought Metal and Hip Hop together and redefined a whole Era on mainstream music, completely ignored Gold Cobra and the most recent LB album "Still Sucks" and the band's new life?? I love the documentaries about bands on this channel and I was super excited awaiting for this one regarding the biggest Nü Metal band ever, but after watching it I feel kinda disappointed. I'd like to see a "part 2" if possible, about the hot topics that are missing on this one. Nevertheless, thanks for this piece. Hope to see more Nü Metal docs soon 🤘
I try and keep these documentaries to about 30 minutes which is not a lot of time to talk about a 20/30/40 year career for some artists so it's hard to pick what I think is the most important aspects of any artists career. I could easily put together an hour long documentary on every artist but then I feel people might become bored so it's a fine line to walk! I do appreciate the feedback though! Pantera is next and that will be longer than 30 minutes for sure.
@@RAWMUSICTV I totally understand that. I just feel that you gave much attention (and time on this video) to the band's formation and early years and focused less on the main topics that would come from 1999 onwards. I think it'd be even greater if those moments were covered on this video too. But that's just my humble feedback. Anyways, it's your channel, your work, your rules man. Thanks a lot for the share and for revisiting the journey of one of the greatest metal bands of all time 🙌 We need more of this type of content nowadays 🤘 Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
I appreciate the feedback man! To be honest, watching this one back it felt way to short and like I could have covered a lot more so some things I will consider in the future for sure! Obrigada!

I saw them last month. Still one of the best live bands out there and they have sooo many bangers
This was a great documentary until the end. To end with “they stopped rolling a long time ago” when they just released an album, played the last lollapalooza, and are touring currently (they put on an incredible show and seemed to be having a lot of fun together) makes absolutely zero sense.
It's a play on words suggesting they are no longer at the height of fame they had when Rollin was released, because they are not. Not sure why wordplay is so confusing to so many people. They've released one album in ten years, not exactly what you call being prominent in the music industry anymore.
Their old shit keeps rolling. That's what matters.
@@RAWMUSICTV even with the long lapses in albums, they still tour and have still remained very relevant. It was a good documentary but you failed with the ending. It didn't come across as just a play on words. It came across as a shot by someone that didn't know what they were talking about.

I can't not listen to chocolate starfish straight through everytime.. great doc🔥
1st time I seen them was in Asbury Park NJ at the Warped Tour. I was 15 and my buddy Martin got tickets to go. We seen bands like Blink 182, Sick of it all, Bad Fish and No Doubt, The sound LB had and their look ( Wes Borland) stood out from a crowd of many popular artists that played that day. At the time DJ lethal was not present in the group. instead it was someone else I couldn't ID.
I remember not being able to hear out of my ears for 2 days straight because we made our way to the front stage every chance we got! Thanks for the Great memories!
The fires at Woodstock weren't until the next night! They didn't tear down the sets and equipment until after the final act of Red Hot Chili Peppers. It's not LIMP BIZKIT's fault!
Music fans didn’t want to break stuff anymore. They wanted to cry and fall in love. 😂😂😂😂
That was also the era my metal heart died.
And now Nu-Metal is making a comeback with metalcore bands dipping back into the genre.
Saw them twice. Always destroyed. Most underrated Liveband. When they play break stuff, every venue goes off.
Great mini-doc overall but it would've been nice if Gold Cobra got a little screentime. Not to mention Bizkit coming back in 2021 with Still Sucks, going on tour and re-igniting their fanbase while earning new fans, etc.
As a 38 year old metal head i was right there for these times.. im more into Pantera, fear factory, old school metallica stuff but Limp and korn definitely deserve credit for everything they have done for the metal scene in general.. Pantera saved metal in the 90s then korn,limp and manson took over from there... Pantera is still easily the best tho... Rock on people..🤘
Dude I went and seen Korn last summer. One of the biggest concerts I’ve seen. I didn’t realize they were still that big. I’ve been dragged to popular pop/ rap concerts that didn’t nearly bring the same amount of people and the energy they got from the crowd

Was an amazing time to be a teenager in the mid to late 90’s going into the 2000’s. Man the music, the vibe, take me back!!

Same✊🏻
Other local bands back then in Jax was Shinedown (a small local band at the time), Snagglepuss, Order By Chaos (OBC), Superfly Rodeo, Inferno, Pigeon Hole, and many many other amazing bands! Jacksonville is dead now. Just stupid country concerts at Dailys. No metal anywhere.
Ill be rollin on the premier on 29th
The Bizkit always put on an amazing live show. 👊🏻
I ALWAYS appreciated Wes Bor staying in the band, it always looked like he was doing his own thing within the band, of course, but he never took off for good.
Just amazes me how someone can craft his own thing, in a group not doing it…if that makes sense…
I enjoyed his black light burns stuff
I remember going to this huge house party in 2007 while in college...this house had so many people in and around it I couldn't believe it still stood. The guy hosting the party had this kickass sound system in his house. Suddenly "Counterfeit" started coming over the speakers and as soon as it kicked in, the place just went nuts and it ended up being the best party I ever went to. It was a super diverse crowd and Limp Bizkit took it up ten notches and for whatever reason it never stopped being crazy after that.
Good doc. One complaint though, when you said florida wasnt exactly known as a breeding ground for metal you couldn't be more wrong. Florida, especially Jacksonville was one of the hottest spots in the scene at the time
Tampa Bay area was well known for early death metal
Glenn Benton...Deicide.
Well that ending was abrupt. No mention of their 2005 EP, their 2011 and 2021 albums, and how they've continued touring. Right now they're on a big high again, playing to big crowds and headlining festivals.

They are definitely underrated.
I think they just got too popular too quick, but a lot of the MUSIC still stands up today….
The Woodstock riots and fires happened the night after Limp Bizkit played.
Nu Metal still was hot in the mid 2000's with Slipknot Vol. 3 and Disturbed Ten Thousand Fists... System of a Down, Static X, Mudvayne, P.O.D. and others kept it going in the 2000's with good releases, maybe not as successful but secondary to whatever was #1 at the time (Emo??). As all the Nu Metal bands slowly attempted to change their sounds, distance themselves from the title and experiment like Linkin Parks Midnight 2007 album but even that has a few tracks I'd consider were unintentionally Nu Metal. The bands you mentioned that came after the Nu Metal waves was a straight up downgrade lol.. I put the Nu Metal era above the Grunge peak, the success of Nu Metal rivals the commercial success of metal in the 80's. It didn't come to an end January 2004 though Nu Metal could still be found and heard for the rest of the decade.
Saw them at Ozzfest 98.They had really just blown up a month or two before that. And were headliners. With MegaDeath, Soulfly, and Tool on the main stage. The small stage had Incubus, Snot, Hed PE, System of a Down. My first big concert that lasted all day into the night. As a teen. Crazy ass day. I saw so much insane shit in the crowd.
Never understood the hate for them.
They’ve been my favorite band since I was 15.
Sure Fred dust lyrics are cringy sometimes,they don’t take themselves seriously and enjoy what they do and they still have a huge following.
People pointing out about Fred's lyrics being cringy is pointing out the obvious. The band's intention has always been to write intentionally dumb and silly lyrics, Limp Bizkit is a dumb band and they have always admitted that.
@@nikobowling1606 literally memers before memes where a thing. I rather hear silly sarcastic lyrics i can laugh about then some wannabe deep/violent shit with way worse instrumentals..thats cringe material.
but I like Primus for that aswell..so 😂
Say what you will about the lyrics and Fred's vocal style.. but the band's rhythm section with
drummer John Otto and bassist Sam Rivers is absolute ace.. those guys could groove.
@@nikobowling1606 They don't hate the band or its music. They hate the bro that Fred represents. The Chad dude in a backward cap (because they get all the girls).
Fred Durst is over the top annoying. He think he is bigger than his band and he cant rap.
I love the Bizkit! They were a breath of fresh air in the 90s with grunge turned into contrived corporate pop. The look and sound of the band checked all the right boxes
I'd still pay to see Limp Bizkit. They can still play and kick ass.
I’m glad I got into Limp Bizkit before knowing anything about them or about the hate they faced, so I had a completely unbiased opinion and I can say that I loved them from the first time I’ve heard them, they have a very unique sound, even so different from the other bands in the same era.
“They wanted to cry about life and fall in love?!?!” LMFAO!!! 😹
Just came to see how the hell he became a Rec. executive but they didn’t go there…Also the riot thing happened the next day after the Red Hot Chili Peppers played…they did break some stuff during the limp b. set though…
Their last two albums are pretty good. Still rock. Still heavy.
I love to see a Kid Rock documentary
I never liked them but greatly miss them. They personify the late 90s. They disappeared after 9/11 along with a lot of other great music.
people like to say nu metal was a bit cringe, but nah, it was awesome. that crunchy sound still sounds great imo. The emo wave that came after it was really cringe and awful. Panic at the disco and stuff like that, i mean listen to it now lmao its dreadful. Atleast some nu metal still kicks ass to this day.
Limp Bizkit is going to be important historically later. Nu metal may make a comeback.
I don't think so.
Numetal was ahead of its time
This documentary was very well made btw you clearly spent a lot of time researching
Hey I may be alone here, but I wouldn’t mind a 45-60 minute documentary by you. Wouldn’t be boring hearing about my favorite bands

22:45 the people at Woodstock 99 lit fires on night 3 when they were given candles. Limp Bizkit played day/night 2.. Also if you watch the entire Limp Bizkit Woodstock set Fred told the crowd to turn up but not be violent. He also told the crowd to help each other up if they fall down and to take care of each other. Blaming Limo Bizkit is false!
People don't hate Limp Bizkit. They hate the image that Fred Durst represents - the bro with the backward cap and the tattoo sleeves. I love that look, it's what real young men should aspire to be. Not fucking Ed Sheeran.
Lmfao, both are equally cringe
I remember seeing limp bizcuit open for helmet who opened for korn. When limp was playing everyone went outside to smoke and talk because they sounded like crap. At that concert they dumped boxes of those demo tapes that included 3 songs,, Counterfeit, Stuck and Pollution and that tape was STRAIGHT FIRE! So much that my new band that had just formed covered all three songs. Had to wait like 2 years maybe 3 before the 3 dollar bill CD came out and they had already toned it down from 11 on the demo to about 7 on the CD, I was so disappointed, they were sellouts before even their first CD came out. Also,, I remember PlayStation magazine used to always have demo discs included with their magazine,, you'd have to wait until next months issues to get secret codes to unlock stuff on last months demo CD, one of these unlock codes opened a music video of Got The Life by Korn. Just saying,, that always blew my mind.
RAWMUSICTV I love what you do. Your contributions to the metal scene is greatly appreciated.
cant wait
Man I never really thought about this until now; when bands like Guns and Roses & Metallica dominated rock music but were then overcome by Nirvana and the grunge era began, and that music had it's 7 or 8 years before it too had an abrupt end and passed the batan to nu-metal. Nu-metal then had it's era BUT when that abruptly ended after 7-8 years or so, what was there to take over? Sure something did but never again since Nu-metal has there been another new brand of rock to really stick around long enough to where it defined an entire generation. 20 years from now will anyone be making, let alone watching, a documentary on "My Chemical Romance" "Jet" or "Fall Out Boy"??
~Guns & Roses + Metallica etc - Hard Rock (owned rock music late 80s-early 90s)
~Nirvana+Sound Garden+Pearl Jam etc-Grunge (defined the 90s)
~ Korn + Limp Bizkit + Deftones etc - Nu-Metal (polluted the innocence of all adolescence from 97 -04)
They were all very different from one another, yet they all naturally tranistioned from one to the other and those who loved all that music back then, still love that music today. Can't say the same about anything that's come after them
Love the Segway: All they had to do is keep on rolling! 🤘🏽
They are what they are.i love them.saw them at woodstock 99.fell in love.real dudes
