Limp Bizkit: Results May Vary

[SkyNet]

I just heard the new song yesterday on MTV (first time i watched MTV in over a year) great video (i think Durst is an excellent director). And the song was very kick ass. I think with Chocolate Starfish they found their groove in the music, and it sounds like they are sticking with it in this cd coming up. (i hated Signifigant Other)

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000C7PS1.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

i will def be picking this up on Tuesday... i hope best buy gets the one with the bonus dvd.

[vastlynne]

Saw the music video...was that Thora Birch in there? And on the chorus part of the song, does he really say "damn you're so hot"?

:confused:

[Grebdron]

Disagree completely. Significant Other was very good, and they went down the crapper with Chocolate Starfish.

But enjoy the new album. You and the other 10 people who buy it.

[Psychocandy]

Never really liked Limp Bizkit. A couple of songs were semi-bearable (only just) but this new album received a critical ass whuppin in NME this week. They also reviewed a Limp Bizkit gig that lasted a puny 50 minutes. Talk about pissing your fans off. Fred Durst seems like a really mixed up dude and I get the impression he thinks he's more talented than he actually is. It's about 90% arrogance and 10% actual talent. Not a healthy looking pie chart there.

[SubMethod]

He does tend to yell, "we're the best band in the world", when people boo him off stage.

[BakeTheMooCow]

Fred Durst is an asshole, and I despise almost all of Limp Bizkit's previous work, BUT I'd be lying if I said I didn't dig their new video.

Thora Birch looks smoking hot as always.. and there's a nice cameo by Bill Paxton.

I like when he sings to Thora:

"I could look at you all day,
there ain't nothing wrong with that."

That makes two of us..

You hit the nail, right on the head. I used to be a big Limp Bizkit fan until I bought Chocolate Starfish. I think Three Dollar Bill, Yall is the best of the three though. I want to see how badly this album fails on the charts.

[Strider]

Well, I think I'm gonna be one of those 10 people who are gonna purchase the album. I ain't gonna lie - after all these years, I still like Limp Bizkit and their music. And this new single, "Eat You Alive", is a great and catchy rock tune. Therefore, I'll be picking up the album on Tuesday as well.... ;)

I have a complaint already, though. That album cover art is really fuckin' dreadful. All of Limp's other albums are kinda creative and cool-looking, but this is just "ugh"....

Hmmm...I actually thought that the artwork for the cover of Chocolate Starfish was an atrocity. The new album's art is BAD. It's not that bad though. :D

[Hucksta G]

The new album is actually very good I think a lot of people will be suprised by it.

[Frank the Tank]

If the new cd is good, I'll download it. I am not giving that douchebag, Fred Durst any of my money. I don't like Eat You Alive.

[Frank the Tank]

Their are a couple of tracks on Kazaa. They are Phenomenon and Creamer. Better than Chocolate Starfish, but boring and sound like all of their other songs. Not as much rap in these two and better than Eat You Alive.

[daddiefatsacks]

Eat you Alive is their best single since Nookie, and hopefully catapults this album.

The cd is kind of mellow, but theres a kick-ass track with Snoop Dog called 'red light green light' which is fun. He also does a cover of behind blue eyes

[Sin Eater]

So do I :).

Anyway, I definitely won't be buying this. I've despised everything they've done since "Significant Other," so I'll pass on this one.

[Nate6]

Fred Durst can kiss my ass.

I hate Limp Bizkit, and I especially hate Mr. Durst! What a big dickfucker this guy is. Ugh!

One of the few albums I'd download, then NOT listen to, just to screw them over.

I gotta agree, Fred Durst is a fucking joke and now he's dragging a great song down with him.

[TheAxeGrinder]

Fred Durst IS a joke. 'Boiler' was really a song about what you should do with your genitals after having sex with him and 'Rollin' was a Freedom 55 commercial, where Fred is parking cars after his music career is over. Jeez, and being self-indulgent with that shit album New Old Songs makes you wonder if Limp Bizkit is really as big a farce as N'SYNC or the Backstreet Boys.

I think thats because they lost there artist which was Wes, he did the art from Three Dolla Bills Yalls to Chocolate Starfish then he left so now they can only put that idiotic boobs face on the cover.

[jackson13]

You know, Bill Paxton was in the video as well. So Thora and Bill sold their souls to Fred Durst. Quite a shame.

That said, I dig the new song 'Eat you Alive', and I like the song they did at Wrestlemania 19 (I forget the name of it).

[RickySlade]

I was a Bizkit fan back when 3 Dollar Bill and Significant Other came out but when they did that shit "Rollin'" I tuned out. I listened to some tracks on "Chocolate...." and every song was horrible. I think their new single is pretty bad yet it is more metal then rap.

Plus, there new song from Gothika is a cover of Behind Blue Eyes and it is pretty good.

[Squid Vicious]

People still like Limp Bizkit? That's funny....

[CMAGUS]

If your interested and if you go to mtv.com in the section the leak they have the whole album up for listen and after listening to it i give it a 2 out of 5 boring album almost stopped listening like 2 good songs everything else is boring

It is very funny. I'm laughin right now as a matter of fact. I'm cracking up at how any music that's just obnoxious metal beats and swearing is considered "Great". Oh the tears in me eyes...

:D That's what I plan on doing. Never liked them that much, but I do listen to them on occasion. Still, to me, the new album wouldn't be worth buying.

[SkyNet]

it never ceases to amaze me how un-open minded alot of you schmoes are. Alot of these posts are "i dont like Limp Bizkit... so why in the world would anyone else like them"

If there is a thread about COLDPLAY (a band i cant stand) i dont go into it and say "man they suck so much ass, how can you all listen to them... thats just funny that you all can listen to that shit"

People need to realize everyone has different tastes in music and movies and everything... so what you think sucks, i may love... and what i think blows, you may love.

[Hucksta G]

I agree SkyNet, these days it does seem like the cool thing to hate on Fred Durst.

[piglet5]

i hear his new album is awful....:D

I've hated him ever since Chocolate Starfish came out and it was the biggest disappointment ever. That and him losing all of his rocker credibility by dueting with Christina Aguilera at the 2000 VMA's.

if you hate Fred Durst, thats all good more power to ya... and if you wanna voice your hatred for him here, thats also all well and good... but what i mean is when people talk down to other people for actually liking him and his music.

[CMAGUS]

The reason i think everyone hates Durst is because he hogs the spot light or thats my reason everything freds everywhere in the video hell hes even on the cover of there new album i listened to the new album and being i was a fan up to starfish and i was very open minded aboutlisten to the new album i wanted to hear it but i ust didnt like it at all like 2 good songs.

I know, I didnt know they exsisted anymore. I think their guitarist or basist left (which one is the funny monkey looking guy?) and started his own band 2 years ago. He was the only talented one too. Its like Korn, anyone listen to them anymore? Screw them all, Ill take the Deftones anyday of them all.

I'll take Korn out of the three. I hate The Deftones worst than Limp Bizkit. Since people call them nu-metal System Of A Down rules all three though. Here's a negative review by All Music.com

It took a long, long time for Limp Bizkit to get their follow-up to Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog Flavored Water into the stores. First, guitarist Wes Borland, generally regarded as the band's musical force, up and left the band, and it took a long, long time to find a replacement guitarist. After a national talent search performed at Guitar Center stores, where candidates had to sign contracts that gave up their rights to anything original they played at their audition, they settled on former Snot guitarist Mike Smith and recorded an album. Then scrapped it. Then they recorded another album. Then scrapped it. They were going through album titles, too — it was called Bipolar then, charmingly, Panty Sniffer. Finally, all the sessions and the turmoil was whittled down into one very long, very bad album called Results May Vary. Part of its weakness stems from two perennial Limp Bizkit problems: for a metal band they sound, well, limp, and in Fred Durst they have the worst frontman in the history of rock. These two things plagued even their hits, but Borland at least gave the band some ideas. Without him, the band is left to flounder, and Durst, who already dominated the band's personality, not only has to provide the bravado, but he has to give it direction — which is likely why it took so long for this mess to get released. Durst doesn't come up with any new musical ideas, apart from slight hints of Staind and emo on the ballads, but the album doesn't suffer from recycled musical ideas, since they were already doing that on Chocolate Starfish. No, it suffers from an utter lack of form and direction, from the riffs to the rhythms, and a surplus of stolen ideas. "The Only One" cops the opening of Steve Miller's "Take the Money and Run," "Gimme the Mic" plagiarizes the Beastie Boys' "Pass the Mic" down to rhyming "y'all" with "y'all" (but Durst adds a whole lotta "motherf*ckers"), while "Phenomenon" borrows from several rap songs, highlighted by Durst getting lyrics wrong. And this points out the biggest problem of Results May Vary — Durst is running amuck, flattening down the production into a grey sludge, then writing inane lyrics that are shocking in their banality.
Since Durst has ingratiated himself with Hollywood, inexplicably getting Thora Birch to concede to being berated to in the video for "Eat You Alive" and French kissing Halle Berry in the video for "Behind Blue Eyes," maybe he's not such a bad guy in person, but on record he's a mean, vindictive, hateful idiot, spewing undirected bile at undeserving targets. Here, a prominent target seems to be Britney Spears, who unceremoniously dumped the dude after an affair that lasted less than a week, since she wasn't all that thrilled that he revealed her pubic hair grooming on the Howard Stern show (what a guy!). Now, he's hurt and ranting about how she broke his heart, unaware of his own culpability in the affair. But that's par for the course for Durst, who stumbles through life without realizing the consequences of his actions, then whines about how nobody understands him. Here, he complains about being picked on in high school, not realizing that his blustering aggression makes him a bully (and that's not even accounting for how he unwittingly incited violence and destruction at Woodstock '99). Then, he complains several times about radio and MTV playing the same old bands, willfully ignoring that he's whored himself out to MTV numerous times and that his band received their radio breakthrough by paying to get their songs played. He invokes icons callously — "ease your pain/like a melody from Kurt Cobain" — most notably on a boneheaded cover of the Who's "Behind Blue Eyes," turning it into a Staind song with a Speak & Spell on the bridge ("B-I-Z-K-I-T. Say it") and adding insult to injury by misspelling Pete Townshend's name in the credits. And this isn't even counting the embarrassing Apple plug in the liner notes, or the Fight Club reference in the artwork, the obviousness of which suggests that Durst would be one of the brainwashed legions chanting "his name is Robert Paulson" instead of thinking for himself. Like before, some of this could have been palatable if the music had a fraction of his anger (no matter how misguided it is) or had some energy to it instead of just being murky emoting. But since the music has no melody, hooks, or energy, all attention is focused on the clown jumping up and down and screaming in front, and long before the record is over, you're left wondering, how the hell did he ever get to put this mess out? — Stephen Thomas Erlewine

I hate Chia or whatever his name's voice and their songs are too boring for me too get into. I don't like the singer's orgasm sound that he has when he's singing.

Deftones over Korn and Limp? everyone is entitled to their own opinion. And here is mine:

DEFTONES FUCKING SUCK! for one: they suck... for two: the lead singer said in an interview that they perform better live than Metallica.

If you are LUCKY enough to be invited on a tour with the greatest band to ever grace this earth (Metallica) you DEFINETLY dont trash talk them. ESP if you suck crucial ass live ( i went to Summer Sanitarium... trust me, they suck so bad live).

Just my opinion of course. I just havnt liked them since i heard about that interview. Never was a big fan of their tunes except for Change.

Geez get a life, stop listening to what everyone else wants you too. Trendy bums.

[SubMethod]

How about we stop arguing about who sucks the most and just agree that they all suck?

[badberry]

The Deftones never did much for me....the only song of theirs I really like is 'Shove It'.

I agree System of A Down is about 10x greater than Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Deftones combined.

Has anybody else found Results May Vary to be really...mellow? I thought Fred was going on about how 'fucking heavy' the new album was gonna be. But most of the songs are slower, softer, 'Rearranged-ish' if ya know what I mean.

[badberry]

Originally posted by The Delfonics

So, someone likes LB or Korn or Metallica more than the Deftones, and its automatically because they're doing what other people tell them? Couldn't it be just because they actually prefer one band over another?

I'd hardly call Korn and Bizkit 'trendy' anymore anyways...the trendy thing now is to hate them.

Don't bring up Metallica in this because Metallica was 1000 times better than Korn, The Deftones, Limp Bizkit, and System Of A Down combined. I say was because even now their better than Deftones and Limp, but not as good as Korn and SOAD. Korn and Limp haven't been trendy since 1999 so I don't know what he's talking about.

[SkyNet]

Delfonics... first off.. never call me kid.. chances are im older than you.

Second off: please explain to me how because i think the Deftones are fucking horrible ties into me listening to what people want me to listen to?? Please inform me, because i just dont know. Oh also throw in how me enjoying Limp makes that same point.

Sounds like you need to open up... not everyone enjoys the stuff you jam to and not everyone enjoys the stuff i jam to.

I also dont listen to what people tell me i should listen to, dont trash talk my musical selections, until you actually know what they are.

I listen to plenty of shit noone has heard of. And i listen to alot of mainstream stuff. WHY... well because i enjoy it. If my friend plays a band i never heard of before for me, and i enjoy it, ill go out and buy that cd the next day (most of the time). I buy music for the music, not only because of the band name making it. And that seems to be something you need to open up to.




Anyway... back on topic:

i did notice that this cd is alot more meloow than their other cd's. I cant stop listening to their cover of Behind Blue Eyes. I fucking love it.

[Strider]

Hmm... is it just me, or isn't this thread suppose to focuse on Limp Bizkit and their new album?

I mean, all this arguing about Korn, Deftones, SOAD, Metallica, and LB seems rather pointless. Some of you people are obviously never going to agree with each other about these bands, so why continue the debate then?

Anyway, I have yet to purchase the album, I have not been able to find the time to go out to the store. But I will sometime this week. Kind of looking forward to it, honestly.

Oh yeah, btw, I heard something that there are some guest appearances on the album... any truth to that?

Strider

[Luke-Abbott]

Whoa schomes!!! This is supposed to be about Limp Bizkit and their new stuff right? And half the page is about you lot arguing whos better than the other? Can't we just agree that everyone has their opinions on different things? If we liked all the same stuff we would be living in a sad, sad world for sure. Its good to be different, we need all these different tastes in music funnily enough and if someone said to me they hated System of a Down and thought Korn was better I couldn't give a damn because it would be their opinon and nothing else.

Anyways, back on topic here:

Although I can hardly remember the new song (downloading it now ;)) I can remember loving the Bill Paxon cameo and screaming: "Hey!! Thats Hudson!!" Cool guy, I loved that cameo. And people are saying Fred directed the video? Well, if thats true I am impressed the guy has an eye for things.

I do enjoy Limp Bizkit (Break Stuff is the perfect song to listen to when you've just had enough of everything) but I will listen to their other new stuff before thinking of buying this album. Didn't think much of Choaclate Starfish but Signicant Other was cool.

[Moviefreek]

I personally think that this is their best album to date.

[HannibalGuy]

This is kind of reminding me of my punk post. Back on topic. I'am not going to lie, I enjoy some of LB's stuff, and "Eat You Alive" is pretty enjoyable. But I only like a couple of songs, mostly off Three Doller Bill. The only songs I like off Significant Other and Chocolate Starfish are "Break Stuf" and "Full Nelson". Wes did a great job on the covers and I think he's a good guitar player. He was also very creative with the makeup he wore on stage. AS for Fred, well IMO, he's a douche bag who at times, can be likeable. Another thing, I know a person who used to love Limp. But ever since the popular trend of hating them has kicked in, he hates them too, but he still has all of the albulms. As for the new albulm, I won't be buying it.

[Hucksta G]

I like the new album, but then again I had no problem with chocolate starfish.

CSATHFW wasn't as bad an album as evreyone says IMO songs like Hot Dog, It'll Be OK and Boiler are bad ass.

ANy way Results May Varys a pretty good album My Favourite songs which will probably change but for now are: Re-entry (the part with the guitar and singing not the circus bit)Eat You Alive, Underneath the Gun, lonely World and Drown.

With more listens I'm sure I'll find more favourites but for now those are my faves.

[daddiefatsacks]

ive given this cd a few more listens, and it definately doesnt feel like a Limp Bizkit cd, not to say its bad or anything, but its not hard. And Fred promised a hard as fuck CD, but this is their tamest yet.

The cd is starting to grow on me, and im liking it more and more, but its different, they have taken a different approach.

[bedhead_dl]

Well for starters Deftones are the best Nu-Metal band of them all. They're the ones with the most rhythm, best lyrics, fucking live experiance, best front man, best guitarist, best riffs, bect fucking everything.

Chino Marino and co. are genius'. Adrenalin is a masterpiece and the best debue album by any modern band. Keep listening to it to find the love. It's there.

Right, now that's out the way...

Limp Bizkit can rock, and they do rock. I read earlier that people think other people like them because they swear a lot in their lyrics... that is stupid.

So is Reservoir Dogs my fave film because they swear a lot too?

Of course I'm not comparing the two, that'd be foolish. However as MUSCIANS (which don't forget is what Limp Bizkit are) they are great, compelling and most of the time creative. You hate Fred Durst coz you're supposed to hate Fred Durst. He's the dick head, big headed, cocky bastard of a front man that he tries to be . Infact if you did like him he wouldn't be succesful at what he does.

Their new song is catchy, optimistic and has their tatoo all over it. And to be honest I fucking love it. Infact I bought the single and listened to it a hell of a lot.

I thought I'd hate it, but it rocks and I'm fighting the temptation to buy the new album. I haven't yet but I'm sure I will. Thankfully Muse have just brought out their new masterpiece and I think I'll be dwelling in this for a few years to come. Absolution... WOW!
But that's another matter.

Limp Bizkit are good... their best album was Siginificant Other and their new shit kicks arse. Gotta give them kudos for continuing without Wes Borland. But the new guitarist will do just fine.

And yes, the album cover sucks and blows at the same time.

[Strider]

Just bought the album the other night. And this is how I would summarize the album.....

No Wes Borland = A different Limp Bizkit

That's just the way it is on "Results May Vary". During my first hearing, I was kind of disappointed. I didn't think it sounded like the real Limp Bizkit. But I suppose I should have expected that, since Wes is gone. As for the album itself, I think it's going to take me some time to digest, but it is good. "Results May Vary" features a new Limp Bizkit; a Limp Bizkit that strays away a little bit from their hard rock and rap influences, and go for a more "mellow" type of rock music. If you're a die-hard Limp Bizkit fan, then "Results May Vary" is going to be pretty damn hard to accept. But in the end, I really think Fred Durst and the other members of Limp Bizkit (excluding new guitarist, Mike Smith) deserve some kudos for actually continuing the band without Wes and coming out with a brand-new album that is different than anything they've done before. I liked Limp Bizkit before this album was released, and I still like them now. I'm glad they're back, even if they're not the same anymore.

Best Tracks (thus far) are "Eat You Alive", "Almost Over", and "Underneath the Gun". Still need to give the album a few more listens....

Strider

[Cosimo]

As much as you hate Fred Durst,you have to admit Limp Bizkit produce the odd good track.Chocolate Strafish was a complete joke, Significant Other on the other hand was a pretty good album.Havent heard the new shit but Eat You Alive is an interesting song.

[The TZA]

I know it's supposed to be cool to hate them now but I still dig Limp Bizkit. I wasn't too keen on Chocolate Starfish but Significant Other is one of the best albums in my CD collection.

I agree that "Eat You Alive" is awesome and up there with "Nookie" as an instantly memorable metal anthem. The video's pretty badass too. I'm looking forward to this new album and hope it does well, purely because nothing else on MTV entertains me in the slightest.

It's called "Crack Addict", and I agree it's a great song, and their Wrestlemania performance was fantastic.

P.S. Why does everyone hate Fred/Bikzit now? Is it because "Rollin" was so huge, or because Eminem doesn't like them anymore, or what?!?

Well guess what didn't do well. It wasn't as bad as I wished, but first it was number 3 and second Significant Other and Chocolate Starfish both sold over 500,000 in their first weeks while this didn't. I expect a huge, huge drop next week.


Limp Bizkit's often delayed Results May Vary finally dropped and debuted at #3 after moving 325,000 copies. That is a solid debut, but far below their last album which sold over 1 million copies in its first week.

There first two albums Three Dolla Bill Ya'll and Significant Other were great but CSAHFW and Fred's backstabing totally destroyed them. After that album came out, all of their fans started turning on them and in some way despite the fact that Fred may be an asshole, i kind of fell sorry for them. They still do make some damn good music.

I downloaded Underneath The Gun and Almost Over and once again, better than Starfish but boredd the shit out of me.

Results May Very's second week sales.


Limp Bizkit's Results May Vary also drops three spots to #6 with 126,000 copies sold.
From 411 Mania

Now the question is can this even make it to platinum.

[pod2010]

there is now way in hell this is not gonna be platinum, it will be at least double platinum before the end of its run on the charts, which is FUCKING good for ANY band, i don't care how much success a band has had in the past, i wish my band would sell this much.

[Frank the Tank]

Explain, two weeks in and it took two weeks for it to go gold and I expect another huge drop off this week. Significant Other passed gold sales in it's first week. It might just pass the platnium mark, but their's no way in hell it can go double platnium. It might even fall out of the top ten.

Does it really matter?...
















no.

[Frank the Tank]

Yes it matters.

The new cd did fall out of the top ten in it's third week, and anyone who thinks it was a hit is totally high.

[pod2010]

explain to me how this is not a hit, yes limp bizkit has been overly successful in the past, but they are a totally different band now that has to go through its growing pains, but this disk will no doubt at least go double platinum. I mean look at CD's like fuel's something like human than didn't even sell over 200,000 copies the first week of its release, but NOW has gone to sell over 1.9 million copies.

and yes, this was a hit!

and no, i am not high, well not at this moment :rolleyes:

[Frank the Tank]

I've already explained.

Let's see

Three Dollar Bill = 3 times platnium
Significant Other = 5 times platnium
Chocolate Starfish = 6 times platnium
Results May Very = 1.3 times platnium at the most.

Something Like Human ended up having a huge hit on VH1 that helped them out I don't see that happening with this. Hits usually don't fall out of the top ten in it's third week and get awful reviews. Michael Jackson's Invincible went double platnium and it's thought of as a huge flop.

How many coppies a CD sells doesn't say how good it is.

What do you mean, I think this has been the worst cd I have heard all year, and I'm happy it isn't doing good.

[The TZA]

When I first heard the new album I wasn't too keen and felt a little disappointed, but I think that's because I was expecting more of the heavy metal "Eat You Alive" style, which is an awesome song and just as good as "Nookie" in terms of a metal anthem for the "jaded male victim". But the album has grown on me and I love it and listen to it nonstop. It's very mellow, but a vast improvement on Starfish. It isn't something I blare out on my car stereo, but listening to in my room when I just want to relax, it's great.

[stewiegriffin]

We all need to just face facts: (1) Limp Bizkit sucks there new cd sucks they are over that shit is just not cool anymore. They were good on there two first cds and thats it. They just couldn't stand the test of time

Please refrain from using the word metal in association with limp bizkit.

Alright then...crap. ;):D

I really don't know.

[bedhead_dl]

What genre would Limp Bizkit fit into?
Well... depends on what album.

3 Dollar Bill, Y'all - Metal

Significant Other - Leaning more the rap side of metal... hip-hoppy even

Starfish - too varied to decide really... rap/metal/pop. Guess it just depends on what song.

I haven't heard their new album but Eat You Alive is easily Metal. Deal with it people.
