I’ll tell you for real that my 12-year-old daughter had never ever heard of Limp Bizkit. I played her a couple songs on a whim recently and she immediately added them to her Spotify.
I think there's something in the human brain that loves seeing someone fall in love with something you love, especially music. It feels like one of those ancient human rituals.
I'm one year younger and I remember my buddy in class got chocolate starfish and was sitting behind me in class and hooked me up with a earphone and highschool was over right then and there lol
40, seen them a few years ago again, they still rock, but hell no, Chocolate Starfish is so weak compared to Significant Other. (But yeah, maybe still a 10/10. :D)
Dude, I remember downloading on KaZaa this amazing AMV from DragonBall Z, I think specifically the Majin Vegeta vs Goku fought, sync perfectly to Break Stuff. Great editing, lyrics matching visuals, on the beat etc. I have never been able to find that video again but yeah, DBZ and Limp Bizkit
Sometimes i feel so detached from my own generation. I'm turning 21 this year and i remember listening to limp bizkit on my mom's walkman back in the day.
The cassette player? That's wild. I'm 39 and even I don't remember those being regular things back when I was 14. We moved onto portable CD players and mini disc players. Minidisks were dope as you could create your own playlist discs.
Saw limp bizkit open for deftones on the tours promoting their “3 dollar bill” and “around the fur” albums respectively in 1997 when I was in high school. The first metal show I’d ever been to and was a total blast!
Saw them open for Korn the same year, their first album wasn't even out yet, but I managed to catch a 3 song demo tape Fred threw into to crowd, that I played the hell out of it and bugged the record store about once a week waiting for their album to drop. I also saw them open for Faith No More and Primus. I still have that demo tape which I got signed at the Faith No More show.
as a millenial, the "my generation" just so perfectly captured the absolute angriness our generation has, and still do, we grew up and gt pissed at the world, and the world kept pushing back at us and we keep getting angrier. so to this day, my generation truly is the anthem of my generation!
Gen Z should love the message as much as we do. They wanna fuck shit up just like we do, they just need their anthem to put their middle fingers up and burn down Woodstock to
being obsessed with watching others isn't bad. There was a time (and to a lesser extend still is) where I was obsessed with American discover German Medieval Rock/Metal. It's just the concept of finding out how people react to songs you're so familiar with but they never even heard of.
I'm 46 so I remember the "start" of all this. I was a big thrash metal head, Savatage, will always be one of my favorite bands. A friend played chutes and ladders for me then counterfeit... I was hooked. Chocolate Starfish was an amazing album. Would of like to see some songs from 3 dollar bill ya'll..... I completely forgot... back when they were coming up I saw them at the electric factory in reading Pa. Fred and Sam were just hanging out outside. I got their autographs.. fred asked if I had a dollar.... changed all the 1's to 3's signed it and wrote limp bizkit suks on the back. I still have that in a photo album. What a show that was, staind, cold, hed pe, incubus, orange 9mm, downset and limp bizkit.
This was one of my favourite ones to watch. It's hard to capture that "moment" in time where rap-metal was all the rage and feels a bit old hat now. Some great songs and Limp Bizkit were the biggest and most stand out of a bunch of great acts who're almost a distant memory of our youth. If new bands were coming out with this sort of material now it would largely be dismissed as "sooo last century" and not necessarily get the traction that some of the bands had then. The girl who had never heard anything like this and having her mind blown and instantly falling in love with them and the style is so close to what we went through with our "phase" growing up and left its mark. LB now might be seen as a nostalgic memory and we might not be as enthused as we were during the Chocolate Starfish era, but if something like this broke out now we could easily see a revival with a new generation of kids.
chocolate starfish was literally just a series of 12 hit singles plus a couple of regular songs, an intro and an outro. The best nu-metal album ever, hands down.
Not wrong about hit singles - it was banger after banger. So hard saying which is the best ever nu-metal album, though. I mean, you've got Life is Peachy/Follow the Leader, Hybrid Theory...that's some stiff competition. I know what my Sunday playlist is going to be now...
@@MBrulla well, I'd say hybrid theory is a close second, but chocolate starfish had a higher banger-to-full-tracklist ratio (which is a statistic I just made up) than hybrid theory IMHO 🤔
@@dariomartinelli2172 Did it really? That's crazy! I still have a hard time not putting Korn at the top. They're the godfathers. Anyone who was on Family Values was integral to it, even Rammstein.
I remember checking out LB way back, because Korn bringing them up. Their cover of Faith, and Counterfeit was enough for me to grab the first album. I was listening to Significant Other on my way to the hospital when my daughter was born. She's 22 and is quite familiar with LB. 🤘🏻
just a lil note, I'm from eastern Europe and still know what MTV TRL is, we had it aswell. and most countries in Europe had it, at least in places i've lived and from people i've talked to. that's how we got most of our music pre-internet era...
I spent 6 years overseas, and this breaks my heart, lol. Love your channel, Tank! It kills me that one of the best DJ's of all time doesn't even get mentioned amongst LB fans.
Even watching these videos it makes me realize how valuable it was for me to grow up in a musical family. My aunt was a blues/r and b singer and my uncle was a jazz musician, my mom was really into pop, my dad (divorced) was really into rock and played in bands. I am just as shocked that people thought that Faith was an original.. Or when I hear someone hear NIN / Reznors version of Hurt they think they are doing a Johnny Cash cover lol.
Chocolate Starfish, along with The Marshall Mathers LP, were my first albums that I bought original. I don't use CDs anymore, but I still have those two.
3 Dollar Bill Y’all was fire af when it came out. Still is. If you were there in the beginning you definitely have a different relationship with them. The ups and the downs lol
bingo! got it when it came out cuz i was an awkward and weird 17 year old that spent way too much time looking for bands and new music. And saw them blow up with faith and family values tour was really interesting.
The nostalgia. Significant Other and Chocolate Starfish were the first CDs that I remember buying has a teenager. Good times. Really like this videos.🤘
for those that dont know : Limp biscuit was a gay frat game. where a group of dudes put a cracker or cookie on a table and the last to ejaculate on the cookie looses and has to eat it.. its also called "ookie cookie" no joke this is really where the name came from....not sure who in 1992 was doing this but wow. hahhha
Even Limp Bizkit's music would not be the same without Fred. He basically came up with a lot of the riffs in his head and vocalized them and then Wes or whoever would play them. He's also the main songwriter in general.
It's crazy seeing these kids reacting to Limp Bizkit and you're talking about TRL, hell I remember watching when MTV first started with Video Killed the Radio Star video, the first music video that they aired!
Fun fact: The first organized internet raid was a TRL prank. In 1999, a chain email encouraged thousands of people to vote for "Hangin tough" by New Kids On The Block on the same day. They made it number one. 😂
We saw them last year and they still have the same energy. My husbands not a big fan and said it was one of the best concerts he’d ever been to. The pink girl might like rearranged.
Dude, Chocolate Starfish was the new album as I was graduating, 2003. This was also about the time I made a major shift in music. This was the last LB album I would own before selling the collection, Korn, etc. Rammstein, Static-X, Mindless Self Indulgence, and The Prodigy stayed post-high school for me but I was just finding bands like Blind Guardian, Iced Earth, Dream Theater, Primus, Buckethead, Fear Factory, numerous ska bands, Tub Ring, Infected Mushroom, Juno Reactor, Junkie XL etc I actually didn't think LB were nearly as big as they still are until a co-worker of mine was saying she still likes them. I made a whole playlist on Spotify of the music I used to listen to up until 2003/2004, a Nostalgia trip of everything that I did like and once I started looking for a song from Limp Bizkit, they still have over 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify! Props to them, it just doesn't feel like they have the impact anymore because we don't have TRL or anything similar. They don't trend like they did then with Linkin Park, Slipknot, Korn, etc. I still love Static-X, that new album with the new vocalist, Zero, is pretty solid, but I remember seeing the Black and White video on one of those MTV blocks and... it was such a different era. I also forgot about My Way lol but yeah, I was REALLY into those first 3 LB albums and I even had a character I made for a comic and I named him "Durst" lol (more recent years when I revisited that character I renamed him "Dirk") Good throwback, Tank. This was very humorous to watch
I haven’t heard MSI in years! They fell off a bit for me after 200t or so but their early shit was great! Always made a point to see them live when I could.
@@mattcavanagh5701 I ended up getting to be the artist on 2 of their shirts in 2008! One was for Halloween and exclusive to their merch store, the other was at Hot Topic. What a trip
my 1st album for limp bizkit is significant others and my absolute favourite is break stuff...but chocolate starfish album, especially boiler and hold on really got me
Tekkno train, pump it, fckboi, spaceman, heck ANY of the album or their songs! Maybe even “we butter the bread with butter” and their track “20km”… Their heads would explode in confusion!
I just discovered the band for myself and I'm excited to check out more of their stuff. I knew some of the well known songs before that, but recently I saw them live on a festival and was blown away! what a great band :D I always love getting to know more music!
Discovered Limp Bizkit as the first opener for Korn on their Life is Peachy tour when I was 15. I went from laughing at their band name when I saw it on my ticket stub to watching them become the biggest band around for awhile.
They might implode if you give them Painkiller by Judas Priest Also the intro to Crazy Train I still want them to react to R@pe me by Nirvana when the vocals start their expression would priceless
Hey Tank, I'm here for the award in the late-but-solid-comment category. Even if there hadn't been a McGyver reboot, there are still many references to the original series in relatively recent programs, not to mention the stellar amount of reruns of the Simpsons, in which Patty and Selma are generally vocal about their infatuation with Richard Dean Anderson.
Bro. That Spineshank name drop made my day. The Height of Callousness was my shit. And I love Johnny! I still have like actual film pictures of us from Ozzfest 2001 🖤 I was friends with the guys from Union Underground and Mike from Godhead too. I spent like 3 months on Manson’s Guns, God and Government tour. Jesus I miss those days. Like in my soul. My late teens and early 20s were just music and traveling and freedom. Now I have like bills and shit 🙄 Thanks for the trip down memory lane! 🖤
Chocolate Starfish. My youth. Right there. Watched the music videos on MTV, had the album on CD, made a tape recording, listened to it everywhere thanks to my Sony Walkman. Simple times, good times.
Saw them live two days ago in germany. SUCH A FUCKING GREAT SHOW! They still got it. And they brought Blackgold as a supporting act, which just fits perfectly. They've been founded 2022 with the mission to "make nu metal great again". They sound like LB, just a little harder and it's so awesome.
I just turned 17 in mid-July, but I grew up listening to bands like Limp Bizkit, Metallica, Poison, Def Leppard, Tesla, and Motley Crue thanks to my mom who died (almost) 2 years ago at this point. I've since grown very fond of Sabaton as well, thanks to my friend who introduced me to them.
I was 15 when Nookie came out and I got hooked. It wasn't very difficult because I was already into hard rock, metal but those were all bands that I was introduced into by my father and uncle but this was mine, I saw them on MTV. Damn, I even dressed like Fred my entire high-school, hats included. :)
If you can look past Durst's ego, the band is good. Wes Boreland is such a talented guitarist. The nostalgia feels...Significant Other was such an amazing album. I want them to react to Cradle of Filth, or Arch Enemy.
TRL specifically wasn't aired here in Sweden but we had at least some five local shows that did pretty much the same. They were like teenage talkshows with music countdowns, basically.
Limp Bizkit was an unstoppable force on TRL for like 3 straight videos. And yes it was exactly what I did after school when I didn't have football practice. Ah the ole days
I'm 37 and I watched the hell out of McGuyver re-runs when I was a kid, that and Knight Rider, The A-Team, Airwolf, Renegade. Granted, here in Denmark those shows didn't make it to our channels until the mid to late 90s.
I'm 27 and I have every season of Macguyver on DVD. Loved the show, so when my uncle passed away, I took his collection, along with A-team and Walker: Texas Ranger. I also got a Scooby Doo plushie, an old star wars hat, and a bigmouth Billy Bass that sings Doo Wah Diddy Diddy by Manfred Mann.
I remember my sister asking for Chocolate Starfish for Christmas and it having parental advisory on it, so my gran listened to it first 🤣 I saw them on that tour about 6 months after the horrific accident at The Big Day Out in Australia. It was at a fest too and we kept being told by bands to move back to stop crushing. Only time I've literally been lifted off my feet because of the crush at Deftones on that same bill. Total nostalgia.
Nu metal has been making a resurgence in the past few years. Tallah has been killing it with only 2 albums for me. Tetrarch, Code Orange, XIII, From Ashes to New, Jynx, etc.
I enjoy the fck out of this! Honestly I love watching all of the Reacts stuff. You ever see the Elders React to Lyrics? That got some old folks into new bands because they liked the lyrics.
I want to laugh at these kids not knowing things from this time... and then I realize that, having been born in 1970, all of these songs are older now than Stairway to Heaven was when I graduated HS. So indeed, the inexorable march of time eventually turns us all into Grandpa Simpson.
The problem with Gen Z - they don't know how to shut up. You can't even hear any of these songs playing, just a lot of talking over songs. How can you comment on something that you're not even listening to?
ahhh man Limp Bizkit!!! Love it. Many good memories coming in with those songs. When I started dating my husband in 2013, Limp Bizkit did a show in Switzerland and I took him with me and a few friends. That was a fun night, man 🥰 we lost one of our friends and he showed up at the end totally drenched in sweat and beer 🤣
Here in Quebec we had Musique Plus (I think the equivalent was Much Music in the rest of Canada) and it was so great having a channel dedicated to music videos. And you're right, what was popular on there was way different than what was popular on the radio. Discovered so many bands I wouldn't have access to otherwise. I didn't get to watch as much as I wanted to though because with only one tv and 3 younger brothers, the competition for who's going to decide what we watch was ferocious! But man the golden era of Musique Plus, Much Music, MTV etc was a great time to grow up in!
Dude I was born in '76. I graduated in '94. I was also an old school metal head. I love Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Acid Bath, Cradle of Filth, etc. I still own most of my original metal albums I bought on vinyl. The original albums and they still sound good. I love playing the song "Holy Wars" off of the "Rust in Peace" album by Megadeth. That is one song I could just never get enough of. But I miss how much I used to love going to the record store on the weekends just to look around. Maybe find some literature on new bands or check the upcoming tour schedules. Plus in the early to mid 90's The record shop I would go to, "Music City," I started learning about Norwegian and/or Scandinavian Metal. Which was fuckin' awesome. (i.e. Dimmu Borgir) Anyway, I wonder what the Gen Z's would say about the music I grew up with?
I love your "dpf hmpf grmpf" after "..a well known band? - It was!" :D :D :D :D Greetings from Germany! And please don't forget to check out "Nighwish - Bye bye beautiful"... gear, girls, great song!! (I will add this to each of my comments, until you make this reaction video! 🙂 )
I still have" significant other" on vinyl and limited edition red. I used to DJ and spin when it was actualy hard. I still have all my vinyl, sold my turntables and whole PA setup when I started playing guitar. I'm 41 this music was high school and college for me, I was rolling in a 1987 Oldsmobile 442 attending music and audio engineering school. This makes me nostalgic, first limp bizkit I heard was a demo tape I was given to by them at tower records.
I’m from Italy, and we sure as hell knew what TRL was!! I think whoever wrote to you from Europe was from a country that didn’t have TRL or is too young and didn’t experience MTV at all. But yeah, I watched MTV all the time after school! And also yeah, Limp Bizkit were awesome! By the way, I’m so that girl who was vibing to all the songs! I genuinely think she’d enjoy Linkin Park.
You’re younger than I thought man. My high school career kicked off with Significant Other and Follow the Leader and I got my driver’s license just in time to play Toxicity nonstop in my car senior year.
Chocolat Starfish was one of, if not the, most influencial Album at the time. Even here in Germany. EVERYONE was talking about it. And if you didnt have it, you couldnt throw a party!
I remember getting a Limp Bizkit cd for Christmas or a birthday early highschool days and it was the clean version. Half the songs only had like half the lyrics. Still enjoyed it lol
That girl's reaction upon discovering her new favourite band is just pure joy 😁
Seconded
She gave me just a little bit of hope.
I loved her reaction!
Shes got some good taste in music LOL Hell yeah keep finding new bands gurlll
She is the chosen one, she may indeed bring balance to music taste!
I’ll tell you for real that my 12-year-old daughter had never ever heard of Limp Bizkit. I played her a couple songs on a whim recently and she immediately added them to her Spotify.
I think there's something in the human brain that loves seeing someone fall in love with something you love, especially music. It feels like one of those ancient human rituals.
For sure, i love watching people react to metal. Especially my favorite bands and songs its a ton of fun.
Limp Bizkit got me into metal, I'm 39 and still a HUGE fan! Chocolate starfish definitely a 10/10 album, totally agree.
I love Limp Bizkit, and DGAF who knows it, and DGAF about what anyone says about them.
@@joevk6274 Fuck yeah bro! 🤘
38 here and it was Korn for me.
I'm one year younger and I remember my buddy in class got chocolate starfish and was sitting behind me in class and hooked me up with a earphone and highschool was over right then and there lol
40, seen them a few years ago again, they still rock, but hell no, Chocolate Starfish is so weak compared to Significant Other. (But yeah, maybe still a 10/10. :D)
I still remember feeling absolute triumph when POD - Alive made it to #1 on TRL. I then went to my friend's house to watch DBZ reruns. Good times.
Dude, I remember downloading on KaZaa this amazing AMV from DragonBall Z, I think specifically the Majin Vegeta vs Goku fought, sync perfectly to Break Stuff. Great editing, lyrics matching visuals, on the beat etc.
I have never been able to find that video again but yeah, DBZ and Limp Bizkit
Man im old
You were definitely there 🤣💪
@@captaintoyota3171 36 here, I am REALLY feeling my age now...

damn that sounds awesome, jealous, I was born in 01 so it's not like I could have gone lol but still
Saw them open for Korn the same year, their first album wasn't even out yet, but I managed to catch a 3 song demo tape Fred threw into to crowd, that I played the hell out of it and bugged the record store about once a week waiting for their album to drop.
I also saw them open for Faith No More and Primus. I still have that demo tape which I got signed at the Faith No More show.
Sounds kinda perfect dude. Lucky lol

I haven’t heard MSI in years! They fell off a bit for me after 200t or so but their early shit was great! Always made a point to see them live when I could.
@@mattcavanagh5701 I ended up getting to be the artist on 2 of their shirts in 2008! One was for Halloween and exclusive to their merch store, the other was at Hot Topic. What a trip
my 1st album for limp bizkit is significant others and my absolute favourite is break stuff...but chocolate starfish album, especially boiler and hold on really got me
That album came out in 2000
@@mjmartn and they didn't release another until I graduated in 2003... which, to this day, I still don't care about.
Me n my mates at school we are 14 love limp bizkit, slipknot, slayghter to prevail, slayer ect!
Listnin to metal scince i was 3
Must get them to react to Electric Callboy! They wouldn't know how to deal with Hurrikan and Hypa Hypa!
Tekkno train, pump it, fckboi, spaceman, heck ANY of the album or their songs!
Maybe even “we butter the bread with butter” and their track “20km”…
Their heads would explode in confusion!
I just discovered the band for myself and I'm excited to check out more of their stuff. I knew some of the well known songs before that, but recently I saw them live on a festival and was blown away! what a great band :D I always love getting to know more music!
Check out their first album “Three Dollar Bill Y’all”. It’s their best in my opinion.
Gen Z reacts to Rage Against the Machine is one I'd watch on repeat. Especially a Down Rodeo reaction.
Discovered Limp Bizkit as the first opener for Korn on their Life is Peachy tour when I was 15. I went from laughing at their band name when I saw it on my ticket stub to watching them become the biggest band around for awhile.
Haha the two dumbest band names ever. I’m a big fan!
You went home from school and you waited anxiously to see if Tom Green's Bum Bum Song would finally reach #1
I FORGOT BOUT THIS 💀
Oh God! I need to hit that up again. Thanks for reminding me!
Limp bizkets cover of behind blue eyes is still one of my fav songs ever
They might implode if you give them Painkiller by Judas Priest
Also the intro to Crazy Train
I still want them to react to R@pe me by Nirvana when the vocals start their expression would priceless
Hey Tank, I'm here for the award in the late-but-solid-comment category.
Even if there hadn't been a McGyver reboot, there are still many references to the original series in relatively recent programs, not to mention the stellar amount of reruns of the Simpsons, in which Patty and Selma are generally vocal about their infatuation with Richard Dean Anderson.
Bro. That Spineshank name drop made my day. The Height of Callousness was my shit. And I love Johnny! I still have like actual film pictures of us from Ozzfest 2001 🖤 I was friends with the guys from Union Underground and Mike from Godhead too. I spent like 3 months on Manson’s Guns, God and Government tour. Jesus I miss those days. Like in my soul. My late teens and early 20s were just music and traveling and freedom. Now I have like bills and shit 🙄 Thanks for the trip down memory lane! 🖤
DUUUUDE! Spineshank were the SHIT back in the day!
Wow! The names. The bands. Nonpoint, American Head Charge, Flaw, Darwins Waiting Room, Soulfly, Sevendust and Coal Chamber just to name a few. 🤘
The height of callousness was an awesome album. My cover band at the time would rotate synthetic and new disease in our set lists.
Chocolate Starfish. My youth. Right there.
Watched the music videos on MTV, had the album on CD, made a tape recording, listened to it everywhere thanks to my Sony Walkman.
Simple times, good times.
as a 35 year old I still pump the chocolate starfish cd on a regular basis, no regrets
Same!
Saw them live two days ago in germany. SUCH A FUCKING GREAT SHOW!
They still got it. And they brought Blackgold as a supporting act, which just fits perfectly. They've been founded 2022 with the mission to "make nu metal great again". They sound like LB, just a little harder and it's so awesome.
I just turned 17 in mid-July, but I grew up listening to bands like Limp Bizkit, Metallica, Poison, Def Leppard, Tesla, and Motley Crue thanks to my mom who died (almost) 2 years ago at this point. I've since grown very fond of Sabaton as well, thanks to my friend who introduced me to them.
I was 15 when Nookie came out and I got hooked. It wasn't very difficult because I was already into hard rock, metal but those were all bands that I was introduced into by my father and uncle but this was mine, I saw them on MTV. Damn, I even dressed like Fred my entire high-school, hats included. :)
If you can look past Durst's ego, the band is good. Wes Boreland is such a talented guitarist. The nostalgia feels...Significant Other was such an amazing album.
I want them to react to Cradle of Filth, or Arch Enemy.
TRL specifically wasn't aired here in Sweden but we had at least some five local shows that did pretty much the same.
They were like teenage talkshows with music countdowns, basically.
Limp Bizkit was an unstoppable force on TRL for like 3 straight videos. And yes it was exactly what I did after school when I didn't have football practice. Ah the ole days
I'm 37 and I watched the hell out of McGuyver re-runs when I was a kid, that and Knight Rider, The A-Team, Airwolf, Renegade.
Granted, here in Denmark those shows didn't make it to our channels until the mid to late 90s.
I think My Way is probably what changed my view on LB back when it came out. The melodies hooked me hard. And I’ve been a massive fan ever since.
I'm 27 and I have every season of Macguyver on DVD.
Loved the show, so when my uncle passed away, I took his collection, along with A-team and Walker: Texas Ranger. I also got a Scooby Doo plushie, an old star wars hat, and a bigmouth Billy Bass that sings Doo Wah Diddy Diddy by Manfred Mann.
i was in high school with the lead singer Fred Durst
Preach. LB is still dope. Saw them live a few years back in Jax Fl and they killed
I remember my sister asking for Chocolate Starfish for Christmas and it having parental advisory on it, so my gran listened to it first 🤣 I saw them on that tour about 6 months after the horrific accident at The Big Day Out in Australia. It was at a fest too and we kept being told by bands to move back to stop crushing. Only time I've literally been lifted off my feet because of the crush at Deftones on that same bill. Total nostalgia.
Just watched this and just wanted to say nice on mentioning Spineshank. It's one of my favorite bands back when I was a teenager.
10:53 When SNL's MacGruber came out GenZ started watching MacGyver. Also a reboot MacGyver series came out in 2016
Hey Tank you need to check out Samurai Pizza Cats - PIZZA HOMICIDE with featuring Nico Sallach from Electric Callboy.
3DBY, Significant Other and Chocolate star fish I would call their holy trinity! 38 years old and still love listening to this band
I love that limp bizkit is getting some love!! John Otto is one of my favorite drummers! Massive influence!
I watched FBE for maybe a decade now. Just fun hearing commentary from different generations.
Nu metal has been making a resurgence in the past few years. Tallah has been killing it with only 2 albums for me. Tetrarch, Code Orange, XIII, From Ashes to New, Jynx, etc.
I’ve been subscribed to that channel for many years. I enjoy when they do episodes like this
I enjoy the fck out of this! Honestly I love watching all of the Reacts stuff. You ever see the Elders React to Lyrics? That got some old folks into new bands because they liked the lyrics.
Catching up on his channel, I love his reaction, and he drops knowledge......he reminds me of Jason Lee even sounds like him
Damn, I really thought I liked these Gen Z reaction videos but it turns out that I just like watching @TankTheTech reacting to the reaction videos
I want to laugh at these kids not knowing things from this time... and then I realize that, having been born in 1970, all of these songs are older now than Stairway to Heaven was when I graduated HS. So indeed, the inexorable march of time eventually turns us all into Grandpa Simpson.
Not tired at all! It brings back good memories!❤
Your reaction to “was a popular band “, made me laugh so hard. I love Limp Bizkit. I listened to them growing up through the 90s.
The problem with Gen Z - they don't know how to shut up. You can't even hear any of these songs playing, just a lot of talking over songs. How can you comment on something that you're not even listening to?
Limp Bizkit are fun. Enjoy it. Great video!
ahhh man Limp Bizkit!!! Love it. Many good memories coming in with those songs. When I started dating my husband in 2013, Limp Bizkit did a show in Switzerland and I took him with me and a few friends. That was a fun night, man 🥰 we lost one of our friends and he showed up at the end totally drenched in sweat and beer 🤣
I found myself saying exactly what you say in the beginning of this video, GENX mom here so cool to see GenZ enjoying my gen's music
Here in Quebec we had Musique Plus (I think the equivalent was Much Music in the rest of Canada) and it was so great having a channel dedicated to music videos. And you're right, what was popular on there was way different than what was popular on the radio. Discovered so many bands I wouldn't have access to otherwise. I didn't get to watch as much as I wanted to though because with only one tv and 3 younger brothers, the competition for who's going to decide what we watch was ferocious! But man the golden era of Musique Plus, Much Music, MTV etc was a great time to grow up in!
At The Big Day out Festival in Sydney 2000 100,000 people were chanting Fred Durst needs to rehurse when he came on stage.
8:26 YES, i want to see them reacting to Slaughter To Prevail - Baba Yaga or demolisher.
Or Whitechapel, corpsegrinder, damn that would be fun
Dude I was born in '76. I graduated in '94. I was also an old school metal head. I love Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Acid Bath, Cradle of Filth, etc. I still own most of my original metal albums I bought on vinyl. The original albums and they still sound good. I love playing the song "Holy Wars" off of the "Rust in Peace" album by Megadeth. That is one song I could just never get enough of. But I miss how much I used to love going to the record store on the weekends just to look around. Maybe find some literature on new bands or check the upcoming tour schedules. Plus in the early to mid 90's The record shop I would go to, "Music City," I started learning about Norwegian and/or Scandinavian Metal. Which was fuckin' awesome. (i.e. Dimmu Borgir) Anyway, I wonder what the Gen Z's would say about the music I grew up with?
My kids say my music is scary. Immortal, Venom, Coven, Morbid Angel, Obituary, Entombed, Cannibal Corpse, etc.
this one girl totally loving it, so nice to see her energy
I grew up with them and was at the RaR Festival over the weekend.
Limp Bizkit put on one of the best performances I've ever seen from them.
The Limp Bizkit name came from a college thing where they used to come on crackers and eat them if I’m not mistaken
I love your "dpf hmpf grmpf" after "..a well known band? - It was!" :D :D :D :D
Greetings from Germany!
And please don't forget to check out "Nighwish - Bye bye beautiful"... gear, girls, great song!! (I will add this to each of my comments, until you make this reaction video! 🙂 )
Total Request Live! What a throwback!!! Damn! Those days are gone now but the memories ❤
I still have" significant other" on vinyl and limited edition red. I used to DJ and spin when it was actualy hard. I still have all my vinyl, sold my turntables and whole PA setup when I started playing guitar. I'm 41 this music was high school and college for me, I was rolling in a 1987 Oldsmobile 442 attending music and audio engineering school. This makes me nostalgic, first limp bizkit I heard was a demo tape I was given to by them at tower records.
Needed to see this
I’m from Italy, and we sure as hell knew what TRL was!! I think whoever wrote to you from Europe was from a country that didn’t have TRL or is too young and didn’t experience MTV at all. But yeah, I watched MTV all the time after school! And also yeah, Limp Bizkit were awesome!
By the way, I’m so that girl who was vibing to all the songs! I genuinely think she’d enjoy Linkin Park.
Wow damn, they really took to Limp Bizkit huh 😂
Honestly, I like these kinds of videos you do..
Also Limp was in the original F&F Rollin' (Urban Assault Vehicle)
I was in my early twenties when Chocolate Starfish came out. Also, in middle school, I watched MacGyver reruns alongside Knight Rider reruns.
You’re younger than I thought man. My high school career kicked off with Significant Other and Follow the Leader and I got my driver’s license just in time to play Toxicity nonstop in my car senior year.
Cool video Tank. Noticed your anti patch on your vest. Have you watched Europa the last battle? Worth the watch man.
Chocolat Starfish was one of, if not the, most influencial Album at the time. Even here in Germany. EVERYONE was talking about it. And if you didnt have it, you couldnt throw a party!
This era was when I really dived in to rock and metal, very important for me :)
Chocolate starfish came out when I was in elementary school. I'm a few years older than you. Definitely my favourite album too
Love the Spineshank shout-out!
Undertaker had a theme song from Kid Rock, not Limp Bizkit :/
Both, actually.
I remember getting a Limp Bizkit cd for Christmas or a birthday early highschool days and it was the clean version. Half the songs only had like half the lyrics. Still enjoyed it lol
