  • Do they still suck? Did they ever suck? Limp Bizkit were one of the biggest bands of the 00s and their hit Rollin' was HUGE!! What was it about this song and this band at that time? Is this song even good? Please, let me know in the comments if you're a Limp Bizkit fan and why you think this song was big?

    This song is best used on a coworker named Roland (if you have one), typically when they just get to work. "It's ROLAND, ROLAND, ROLAND, ROLAND, YEAH!" They will never tire of it.

    I loved Limp Bizkit in high school and I'll still listen to them occasionally today. Most of their music is as simple as this; turn up loud, forget about your worries, yell some fun lyrics. On a serious note, any band that lives in the "we don't fucking care about anything" space will always find some popularity with youth who also don't really give a fuck about anything.

      Limp Bizkit have an incredibly tight rhythm section. Especially John Otto, I really enjoy his drumming. He knows when to place the kick drum, lots of little double strokes all over.

    Limp Bizkit is, and always has been, a band to allow people to disengage their brains and listen to an actually quite unique mish-mash of metal, trip-hop and rap
    Dumb lyrics, fun hooks, and zero ego regarding musical integrity.

    I was 15 when this came out, was just getting into music and absolutely loved it.

It's raw, very well produced (but not over-produced) and much more chaotic than their "pop" efforts. Haven't heard the new album, I refuse to buy digital. CD or nothing.

    I saw Limp Bizkit at Sonisphere, Knebworth, 2014. Up to that point on the Friday it was a dead festival.
    They could see that the crowd needed lifting and they absolutely delivered. After the opener everybody was bouncing!
    I was with a number of seasoned metal heads and none of us could resist! I was a great, great ride.
    The Prodigy headlined and there is no doubt in my mind that it would not have been anything like the same epic gig had Limp Bizkit not set the crowd up for utter abandonment beforehand. Yes it’s dumb, but that’s the point, it’s an indulgence. And I think that there are parallels there with the indulgence that the Darkness so skilfully provided as well.

      I agree with all of that except for the "it makes you feel shitty" part. If it made their listeners feel shitty, they would have no fans. Music is a lot more subjective than food. With food, you obviously get what you pay for, but the quality of music is much more subjective. But, I suppose you could argue that it's cheap, because of the lack of emotional depth.
