WTF Happened to Fred Durst?

- If you came of age in the late nineties/early 2000s, you knew Limp Bizkit. You may have loved them or hated them - they were that kind of band…but whatever the case, you for sure knew who they were. Led by frontman Fred Durst, they were the faces of mainstream Nu Metal at a time when the genre was taking off. The band definitely never got the respect of a band like Korn or Rage Against the Machine - for a good reason probably. While Rage was all about non-conformity, Limp Bizkit’s lyrics were more about breaking stuff (to the point that one of their best-known songs is literally called “Break Stuff”), which led to the band getting a lot of ire from critics and even within the industry. Who could ever forget the sight of Fred Durst accepting an MTV award while Rage’s Tim Commerford climbed the show’s set in protest of Limp beating them for Best Rock Video?
As the decade went on, Nu Metal began to fall out of fashion, and so did Limp Bizkit. They were never able to recapture the zeitgeist the way they did around 2000, but to his credit, Fred Durst branched out in interesting ways. He became a movie director, helping to discover Jesse Eisenberg with The Education of Charlie Banks, directing the decent enough Ice Cube vehicle The Longshots, and making a John Travolta horror movie called The Fanatic, which is either incredible or one of the worst movies ever depending on who you talk to (like his music, Durst’s movies are divisive). In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we examine Durst’s rise to fame with Limp Bizkit, the controversial fall from grace and his attempts at a comeback.
This episode is written (with Brad Hamerly), edited, produced and narrated by Taylor James Johnson.

The legend is that he hasn't stopped rolling.
I laughed out loud.
Rolling Rolling Rolling 🤣
KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN’!!!!
Uh
Hahaha he sucks
I’m not afraid to admit that I loved limp bizkit. I still do. The Rollin remix with dmx, method man, and red man were fantastic
I loved them too. And I still occasionally listen to them.
I liked break stuff
Fred Durst should have just kept rollin' rollin' rollin' right the F*(K out of town with his idiotic music and even STUPIDER style. When I went to college, I already know who the dumb-a** Limp Bizkit fans were, just by the clothes they wore. And, I was thankful they would go out of their way to advertise themselves like that, so I knew who to stay away from.
Hell yeah🤩😛
I completely agree! Anyone who says they didn't listen to Limp Bizkit back in the day is lying! Everyone listened to them!
I am not ashamed to confess, that I still love listening to Limp Bizkit even till today....
Dad vibes, baby!
I love limp Bizkit aswell no shame in it 👍😀
he is singing in this song released 8 days ago

Late 90s/early 2ks was peak society. The clash of all those subcultures was truly something remarkable and amazing.
I so agree. U had to be there to understand.
I appreciate it's unique place in pop culture but sincerely hope it wasn't the height of society for the sake of future generations
@@tangerinesky1293
I was there and I understood. I understand that rap-rock and nu metal is insufferable dreck. You could always discern the kids who had lousy taste in music back then by whether they were into bands like korn, limp bizkit, 311, stained, etc. The only thing “remarkable” about it is how terrible it was.
@@MaximusWolfe lmao nice try troll. U were probably one of the cool kids who always thought they were better then everyone else. You probably still think that your opinions are above those of everyone else you have no place in your heart for variety and if you don't deem them worthy then they aren't worth anyone's time right. Of course because your opinion is the one we all should listen too.
it was a god damned cringe nightmare
I like that you started covering musicians as well, loved the previous ones too
Agreed! They do such an awesome job with these that I’d love to see all sorts of genres.
I still love Limp Bizkit , 3 dollar bill is unironically one of the best Nu metal albums , it’s ridiculously heavy , the riffs, the bass , the screaming , even the rapping sounds awesome!!!
And yeah some tracks like “my generation “, “livin it up”, “take a look around” have that amazing energy in the bridge especially , felt like a breakdown always !
Yeah now I do listen to metal core, black , death , shoegaze , thrash whatever - I still listen to limp bizkit too !
Facts!!!!!!
I use to listen mainly just metal/ nu metal, but nowadays mostly hardcore/ frenchcore with other sub genres and occasional punk/ rap.
Saying “one of the best nu metal albums” is like saying one of the best brown lumps in my toilet after I am finished defecating. That genre was execrable. I hated it from day 1. It deserves to remembered alongside disco and techno as one of the absolute worst genre’s that industry ever vomited out.
@@MaximusWolfe you re free to
hate it. I love a lot of stuff considered Nu metal.
And techno is doing pretty well , there are huge expensive sold out parties every weekend all year long.
I’m not gonna argue with you , so don’t bother. You can’t change my “shitty” taste and I can’t change yours.
@@allosanthrwpos542
You conflate popularity with musical prowess and artistic accomplishment. That’s your first problem. As for techno, any music you have be high as a kite to enjoy isn’t very good.
LB's songs are immortal and aged pretty well - a fresh music that the current music scene needs. Even my children who's hitting their teenage years can relate to the songs that Limp Bizkit made around when I was in my teens. I hope that Fred gets well soon and gets through this fast.
There is a number of recent bands that show clear influence from them; it’s kind of cool to see
@@michaelgray4833 nice man, can you name some bands so that I could check out?
Spiritbox, Lo Pro, Loathe, Thornhill, etc.
@@michaelgray4833 Thank you! Will check them out.
From Fall To Spring, Wage War(?), Keychain, Frontstreet, NoSelf definitely, Northlane to some extent, Dirty Machine. Idk maybe this will start you on a journey
Fred Durst is a state of mind. Me an my mate was headbanging hard to a LB tribute band last summer because they nailed the attitude 🤘🏻
Yikes
What attitude might that be - the “I’m a half wit trend wigger who thinks he can meld two genres seamlessly but can’t” stance?
I was 13 when Limp Bizkit got big. You really had to be there to understand
Yeah I remember I was 14
how was it?
@@user-we4tu7hr1t angsty
Yes he is a legend lol
Wished i could go back we use to skate board and camp out and listen to limp bizkit and korn
I know Durst gets looked at like a bit of a joke. But Limp Bizkit was a awesome band who’s songs can still stand up today. Even watching their old live concerts you can’t deny Fred was a real frontman and the band was rocking despite their limitations
Fred carried an entire generation on his shoulders, and his haters likely aren't doing half as well by comparison.
He gets a lot of respect tbh. I feel like he only gets looked at as a joke by people who don't see what he's doing
I deny both of of your claims, actually. They sucked then and they blow now.
@@jamesmcmackin8773
So success in a world this deceived and corrupted is proof of an important or successful life? Think again, Chuck.
@@MaximusWolfe No, success in this regard is about positively shaping your life and others around you, Fred has certainly done well there. Limp Bizkit gave us something worth appreciating, and their music made the world ever so slightly better of a place.
Fred also discovered bands such as Staind, Cold, Puddle of Mud, and Taproot.
I know, and I thank him for doing that.
Never heard about any of them.
@@saratov99 well get to it you got youtube they was some decent bands
That's not a good thing. They're worse than his terrible band .
Still love Taproot.
Being from Jacksonville, everyone knows Fred and he will always be a legend
Yeah, a legendary punchline to any joke ever made about clown boy lead singers, wiggers and shitty bands.
@@MaximusWolfe they sold over 40 million albums and have the fastest selling 1st week sales of any rock artist...1 million copies sold in 7 days. And they're STILL popular, they play huge festivals and people lost their sht over their lollapalooza set and new album. Your opinion is trash.
@@MaximusWolfe who even are you
@@MaximusWolfe you’ve made multiple hate comments under this video you’re a weirdo bro
@@bellacigne
Who are you?
Fred Durst has grown on me more and more as I've gotten older. I didn't care for him as a teenager when he was popular, but now when a song comes on I'm like "Damn. This is fire." 🤷
One of the best live bands of all time, I've ever witnessed. I stand by that statement.
Agreed bro saw them only last week for first time and best experience at a concert I have ever had.
Thinking about going to one in June. At dte energy theatre in Michigan.
Unexpected episode! LOVED IT. I love Limp Bizkit- always did. Classic Nu Metal kid from the good old times.
Gotta give Wes Borland for carrying Fred Durst with his guitar while wearing face paint.
Wes Borland's back must be killing him.
And those contact lenses...
Carried Fred? How many bands did Borland have? He rejoined LB how many times?
@@amthatdad3450 i was gonna say the same thing about those contacts. I had friend whose brother got into those contacts after seeing Wes wearing them
Wes Borland was my favorite member of Limp Bizkit. I have those big ass contact lenses because of him. They suck to get in, and they irritate the hell out of my eyes
Love or hate Linp Bizkit, there has been nothing like them since their heyday. They were unique.
There were plenty of bands like them back then actually, though few bands have ever sucked the chrome off a trailer hitch quite as forcefully.
@jonniecutlet7925
Scene? What scene? The racially dysphoric, affluent suburbanite, wanna be black scene? Haha. Nu metal (rich wigger rock) was a complete joke. Almost as bad as emo and boy band.
I loved Limp bizkit . I was a senior in high school when 3 dollar bills came out . I still go back to them every now and then . But yea man this was my heyday!!
as a senior in highschool when they got big, being both a rap and metal fan and a skater boy I met many people across all races who enjoyed both and limp Bizkit, DMX, Korn, snoop, and Busta doing collabs around that time brought me my best friend who I am still friends with.....so him and them will always have a special place in my heart for that
@@Chuck_EL
Sounds like a true imbroglio.
LB has been in my normal rotation since 2000 or so, never changed. Still blastin his creations to the annoyance of those around me, mostly in traffic...
I've seen a lot of gigs and I will forever maintain that LB are one of the best live acts - Fred knows how to work a crowd and it's entertaining as fuck. I'm not ashamed to admit I love the LB
They kill it live. Look at the frenzy that was Big Day Out ‘01
Just because you are not ashamed doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be. Limp Bizkit is one of the worst bands to ever sell a million records. Strippers and clowns know how to work a crowd too.
@@MaximusWolfe lol in your opinion. Sorry Gatekeeper 🙄
@@sim0an
Nope, that’s an objective, demonstrable fact and axiom. Big difference. I’m no gatekeeper. Just a person who has an abiding regard for reality in a world that thinks reality is suddenly optional.
@@MaximusWolfe and a self-righteous one at that. Go hassle someone else champ, I don't give a fuck
Grew up on Limp Bizkit since 2000. I loved the music, Fred's Artwork, everything. I'm glad I grew up in the era of the Bizkit!
I don't like this band, but I have to give huge props to Fred for his energy on stage, he's a real beast when performing and he still does.
Strippers, drag queens and clowns are very energetic on stage too.
Limp Bizkit saved my life, as a little kid I was bullied at school from not only my own grade but from 2 grades above and below, bullied for being different, for questioning religion, for questioning social stereotypes, for stepping out of the box and that my parents didn't have TV and we only watched Star Trek tapes. Living out in remote country at the time meant I had no friends on the street to visit, I was isolated and alone, playing make believe with sticks in the dirt by myself. My parents seem to have my own life already mapped out for me regardless how I felt about it. I hated the world and wanted to end my life, then I was introduced to Limp Bizkit, Crazy Town and Eminem when I was a young teenager. While listening to Limp Bizket they basically said to me "we get it and if your going to die, take the whole fucking universe with you because they deserve it for what they did to you- get the fuck up and let em know". As I grew up I learned the world is run by bullies and gathered a mature perspective about it, but I never forget that it was Limp Bizkit that said we know, we get it and your not the only one which saved me from ending the pain and fight their fire with their own fire

th-cam.com/video/MuvmCeFZRsY/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Alligatoah
I love these guys. Listed to their new album day 1. Hope he gets well soon.
You have peculiar standards.
@@MaximusWolfe meh I like what I like haha. I didn't say I listen to it daily lmao. But if it comes on in my mix I'm jamming to a 3 minute track for sure.
@@DizzyD88
Sorry to hear that. With all the great music out there to waste your time on wigger clown dreck like that seems almost sadomasochistic.
I saw Durst have a genuinely kind and thoughtful conversation with a fan for like 15 minutes on livestream one time
I met him on this past North American tour they did back in May in Worcester MA. Unbelievably chill... signed autographs for the 13 or so of us there before the show, took photos with everyone and even said "I'm gonna sign as Stanley... I heard this increases the value when you list it on eBay". The idiots who brought 5 / 6 things for him to sign to obviously resell and the true fans like myself all got their items signed as Stanley. They left genuinely pissed that he did that to their items and ruined the value and I died laughing about it and still have both vinyls he signed for me proudly hanging on display in my music room. I was even chopping it up with their security guard who was cool about everything and just thanked him for not being a dick (he easily could've) and he agreed that those vouchers looking for autographs to sell ruin it for fans like myself but that he can appreciate genuine fans looking for an interaction. He fist bumped me, I left to put the vinyls back in the car, came back in line for the show, watched them kill the stage for nearly 2 hours, and went home happy as could be.
Nice or not his music is an abomination.
I grew up in Jacksonville, I was also deep in the tattoo industry as a body piercer from 97-2012, I was also deep in the music scene. Me and my friends in a band called Order By Chaos had our beefs with Fred. I was always cool with Sam and their first guitarist Rob Waters, but I can 100% tell you that Fred was never a tattoo artist. He attempted tattoos, that’s the extent of it
I can remember seeing Korn at Milk Bar, it was a basement club in Jacksonville. It was small, dark, dirty, low ceilings, and exposed pipes. It was the perfect venue for punk shows. It couldn’t have held more than 600 people, but usually had about 700+.
Crazy I came across your comment on this video. Evolution Of A Dream is a phenomenal song you guys made that I've been having on repeat lately and actually got me into the rest of the OBC catalog. Which one were you in the band if you dont mind me asking? Anyways It sounds like it was quite the time to be in that Era and movement of music / pop culture. Who else was coming out of that Jacksonville scene that made similar music to you guys and LB that you remember? Would love to get to listen to more.
@@BrandonPilotto I wasn’t in the band, they are all just some of my best friends and I was also their piercer back in the 90’s/early 2000’s. There were a few lineup changes. On the first album “A Dynasty is Born” it was Rowe lead vocals, Marshall bass/backup vocals, Gary guitar, Todd drums, and Squiggy on the turntables. Shortly after, they replaced Gary with J Rooney on lead guitar and added Eric Ellis (who went on to be in Bury Your Dead and now in federal prison). OBC is still around, but the only OG members are Rowe and Marshall. Squiggy does some stuff with Loud Wire, there are a few videos on their channel where he is the host. Also, after they added J and Eric, they also added Mickey as the “button pusher”
So, if you watch the Evolution or a Dream video, Rowe is singing, Marshal on Bass, J is playing the green Les Paul with a bandanna over his face, Eric has the dreads, Todd on drums, Squiggy one the turntables, and Mickey just being weird 😂
@@BrandonPilotto there weren’t many coming out of Jacksonville at that time with the same style, but of course Cold was a great band that came from Jacksonville at that time, you had Endo from Miami, they were really good friends of ours and toured Ozfest for a couple years back then. There was 8-Up which was Dee Peacock’s band. I’ll try to remember some others
To this day still have Limp Bizkit in my Nu Metal daily rotation, those songs are timeless. Still have my Chocolate Starfish & Hotdog Flavored Water CD.
Yup, timelessly awful, embarrassing and sad. You betcha.

To give “still sucks” a bit of credit for only reaching 155 in the billboard 200 it only ever got an online release! Streaming and iTunes only. I’m not saying it would have ever hit the top 10 or anything but i imagine if it got a physical release as well on cd and vinyl it would have charted a bit higher than it did. I personally love LB! It’s clear that Fred is playing a character when on stage or in the studio and that away from that he is an intelligent and well mannered dude who is funny and cares about people and his fans :)
I introduced to my nephew some of my favorite LB songs. That band still rocks. I hope that Fred gets all the help that he needs. Get better Fred.
Praying for your nephew. What you’ve done is tantamount to child abuse.
“Seen the Netflix documentary Trainwreck?” HELL NO, I saw the Woodstock shenanigans LIVE on MTV! 🤣🤣 That’s how old I am.
I loved Limp Bizkit. Had no idea they once opened for Faith No More but that makes sense as FNM were seen as the forerunners of nü-metal. God, I miss the ‘90s. What a time to be alive.
Prayers for Fred Durst! Thank you for your contributions :)
As someone who doesn't know much about Limp Bizkit, this was a good introduction and give me a little more respect for them.
Actually he got almost everything wrong and if you respect that band you disrespect music. They were/are absolutely awful.

No.
Limp Bizkit still killing it today. They sound better then ever, still touring.
He may not have been able to see much from the Woodstock stage but he did start crowd surfing on the wooden boards which I'm sure didn't help calm the crowd down. Fame clearly went to his head much too fast and he burned out as a result. I do wish him the best with his health though, I know that he and the music did play a big role in people's lives during that time
isnt it funny that freds antics are nothing compared to celebs now like kanye west coming out with his hitler support or the travis scott concert where EIGHT people died. compared to the three that died at woodstock and can't be attributed to just one artist
Just saw them last weekend live. Honestly probably one of the best shows I'm ever going to see, such a fkn hype!
Fred and Wes are an incredible songwriting duo!!
They released an album in 2011 and 3 singles between then and 2014 while continuing to tour right up until covid before the Still Sucks album dropped. 20 year hiatus is a bit of a reach
I was going to say the same thing.
Yep fucking skipped a bunch of lb history..
_Still Sucks_ is honestly a phenomenal return album.
No
It is better than Gold Cobra. Though that's not much of a high bar.
Wow that’s a massive nostalgia kick
thanks for watching!

I know, right!!! I used to listen to his one album "Signifcant Other" from 1999, when I was in my senior year. I ❤️ Limp Bizkit.
Yeah, but it ignores the fact that even at the height of its popularity limp bizkit was a joke to every serious music fan.
Fred Astaire was in the man in the Santa Claus suit 1979 with Bert convy Gary brughoff john byner directed by Corey Allen
Limp bizkit peak was definitely late 90's and 2000 but after Wes left the band they we're never the same
So they went from incredibly bad to somehow worse?
@@MaximusWolfe No
@@jamesmorant1406
Yes
He keeps rollin' rollin' rollin' and breaking sh@t because he's doing things my way or the highway.
What's funny is that "Durst" means thirst in German so combined with the water issues at Woodstock 99 makes this quite ironic
I like this trip down memory lane, but too bad that you didn't cover album Gold Cobra, songs such as Endless Slaughter and Stampede of the Disco Elephants supposed album which eventually turned to be StillSucks.
Still love Limp Bizkit, "Break Stuff" is still my go-to song when I'm angry. I live in Jax & think about the band every time I drive over the Matthews Bridge.
The only video I’ve seen on TH-cam that isn’t completely negative about Limp Bizkit. Was a fan when I was a pre-teen. Never knew Fred was around the same age as my mom. Always figured he was early 20’s when I’d see him in mtv.
Omg you guys never fail. This was a great person to make a video about 🎉❤
I was definitely a big Limp biscuit fan when I was in high school And I graduated in 03 Also there's an unrelease song with him And Eminem Call Turn me loose you can find it on TH-cam
Two sad, empty wiggers united. What a blessing.
I sold off most of my CD collection over a decade ago, but among the few I kept, Limp Bizkit's remained :) Cool to hear about the rest of the stuff he did after music!
The fanatic is legitimately too amazing to be missed. What an amazing train wreck.
One of the worst bands. One of the worst movies. He now has to write one of the worst novels and paint one of the worst paintings to complete the great circle of his life’s work.
Got to see Bizkit on their Still Sucks tour during May of this year. Fred is a true entertainer and I truly hope he’s gonna be ok! The world needs you man!
Love this video. I did much want to see them this year. But hopefully they can come back out soon
Maaaan... being a teen back then was something else. Subculture clash was nuts back then! You definitely had to be there and live it
Ben Stiller is still looking for his Bentley.
Love Limp Bizkit still listen to him in the gym to this day. Been listening for 20 years and I'm still rolling! Keep rolling and creamer are the best.
Like him or not (I loved LB) he's a VERY talented and smart business man.
The craziness concert I've ever been to was Limp Bizkit, Godsmack and DMX.
I was only a teenager. Wild times.
Yeah, really wild. Nothing says rebellion and crazy like some corporate financed concert featuring 3 “artists” that have since become symbols of how abysmal rock and rap became and how listless and easily satisfied your average teenager was during the late 90’s.
In year 2000, I really wanted their new CD. My mom was adamant about not purchasing it for me. I was 14 & the album had a parental advisory sticker on it. I ended up having to steal it. Only thing I’ve ever stolen 😳 worth it.
Man I love Fred Durst
The one and only time ever I got through the hotline on TRL, I requested to see Green Jello''s Three Little Pigs, because it never got played enough
Limpbizket is still 1 of my guilty pleasures.
me too...
Hotdog flavored water right
How is he a " guilty pleasure " ? He's great no matter what
Why the guilt?
@@vampirascoffin870 true
Fred is definitely hated more than he should be, because he is a good dude, but feel into the "character" he created, otherwise I got no problem with him. Also, limp bizkit as a band, so goddamn underrated
It’s not underrated. It was a genuinely terrible band.
Just saw him live last summer. His look through me off, but dude can still put on a show.
Whilst his music may not to be to everybody's taste, myself being more of an old school heavy metal fan, but I do like a few of Bizkits song, Fred has shown us all that he is a man of many talents and I wish him well.
Nope. His bands and movies are reprehensibly bad. Hated them as a kid, still do.
Limp Bizkit is one of the top bands for me. I still love listening to them. I don't care if it's trendy to hate them or Nickleback.
Ohh the good old Woodstock 99... just beautifull! Nowadays something like that would never happened. This generation is too clean and safe for something like the prime days of angst and Limp Bizkit...
Completely skipped over the Gold Cobra era (which that album had a few bangers and Walking Away was actually a pretty damn good emotional song), and the Cash Money era. They've been around and touring steadily for the last 12 years but due to label issues with Cash Money and then Fred taking his time writing for Still Sucks they only produced two albums since Unquestionable Truth. Saw them a few years ago with Alice in Chains and it was one hell of a fun time
Alice in Chains must be slumming hard these days.
Fred Durst was just the kind of guy that I instinctively dislike.
Yes
Popole love to hate on fred and the band but even the biggest haters will admit the man has changed the game and is one of the best live performers out there.
been a hardcore fan since 9th grade and still am at age 36. they're still my favorite, fred is still my biggest idol, not just for the music he created but also for the huge passion he brings to the table.
still sucks is an awesome album and i cant wait for more new material from them.
LIMP BIZKIT 4 LIFE.
it's really sad to see that because you know they were all bumping his music until it became "cool" to mock him ...I'll always be a fan of his because I met rap and metal fans and got lots of friends though that who normally wasn't hanging with each other
Don't have much time to watch this I gotta pooo !
Fred is from Gastonia, NC. The fact that he did anything, is amazing considering he's from Gastonia. If you've traveled through one street in Gastonia, you've seen all of Gastonia.
I have family in Charlotte, Concord and Asheville and travel the state extensively. Your comment nearly made me shoot Dr. Pepper out of my nose. So true.
cool story, cool time, cool music, but he’s still fan of putins russia.
I don’t understand why you mention the “underground” album “unquestionable Truth” but NOT Good Cobra??? That album was fantastic!!
I giggled at his stuff when I was a teen but now when I try to listen to him I genially feel myself getting dumber
wigger metal still sucks. No way to spruce it up.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say MOST don’t care. as long as he’s not relevant we’re happy.

Honestly “Ready to Go” was my jam for 5 years 🙈😂 I screamed “Red Hat to the Back Like Fred Durst” at the top of my lungs in the car foreverrr
Not one mention of this song at all in this entire video.. it was a badass song..
What happened to Fred durst?
Who cares aS long as he's gone
Correct
I don't remember the entire story but if memory serves....Bizkit was the name of his dog.
Was a big fan back in the day and still enjoy their music. They used to put on a kickass show.
Unpopular opinion.... I don't care I CAN'T stand him 😒
Nor I
I still have all of their albums in my CD book 🤘🏻🔥
The funniest thing is that this band was just a comedy band without a gimmick yet still sold music lol
I was on 3rd or 4th grade when i first heard limb bizkit. Still blasting it from time to time to this day
I saw them at the milk bar a few times before they even had a name lol. They always rocked that hole in the wall.
Literally listening to Limp earlier this AM
im from germany and theyre actually going to perform by the end of march in munich after it got delayed august last year. its my dads favourite band and although he cant come with me im very happy to go there and see them soon!!!
Been a big fan of Limp Bizkit since I was 8 Years Old. Still listen 2 they're songs 2 this very. Oh I'm a 90's baby!
Just because you grew up in 90’s doesn’t mean you like limp bizkit. Let’s be real clear on that.
They channelled my rage, and I will forever love the line íts all about the he said she said bullshit"'. I channel that line all the fucking time.
I don't know much about who limp Bizkit was, but I do know one of their songs which is one of my faves, even though it is a cover - behind blue eyes. Even tho that song had been memed to death , I still like it cuz it is comforting for me.
forget the numbers, the shame, the hate. This is my generation which i used to hate but in truth I miss... Limp Bizkit for life.
something that i find fascinating about fred durst is that at the drive-in used to be considered the "anti-limp-bizkit" band and they spoke in an interview years later about how much they respected him for how he took concert violence so seriously after someone died at a big day out limp bizkit performance
I saw them live in Poland Warsaw back in 2011. They were great.
Sorry to hear that. It should be a criminal offense to use the word great in reference to limp bizkit.
I saw Limp Bizkit in concert several times (purely because they toured with Korn and Staind) and they sounded great; put on a great show, but Fred Durst had/has such a massive ego, it sucks all of the air out of the room and makes ya kind of dizzy and nauseous... I could never take him seriously, and it definitely affected the way I viewed the band as a whole.
Korn is a great live band..I'll go see them anytime they come by.
Korn and Staind were/are terrible too.
I was decidedly *not* a fan of Limp Bizkit, but I am happy for him finding his groove. Still trying to do that, so I know how hard fought that shit can be.
Limp Bizkit were both liked and hated at the same time, they were huge, their albums would topped the billboard charts and they were on heavy rotation on MTV 24/7
Great episode! But just to add that you missed to mention their fifth album Gold Cobra from 2011.
Roddy Buttom the Keyboardist from FNM is so nice. I met them when I was 9. He is a classically trained pianist.
It’s just one of those days, when ya don’t wanna wake up…
……or listen to limp bizkit
Legendary band. Crazy albums. I've allways loved their tracks, and i will allways do.
My last comment... Needs to be expounded upon... We here in Jacksonville Florida ,are more proud of the fact that the girl he sang about in the song nookie is from here, than we are of Fred being from here.
I’m forever a limp Bizkit fan and am proud to admit it! Nu metal forever!
Just because you’re proud doesn’t mean people won’t laugh at you. It’s so weird that people think that having pride is the concretization of legitimacy. That band sucks whether you regard that fact or ignore it; whether you’re proud of your pitiful taste in music or not. Reality isn’t optional and isn’t magically blocked or attenuated by how proud you happen to be.
