Had a schoolmate who, upon seeing his girlfriend get harassed, threatened "Stop that or I'll pull a Columbine on you!" Needless to say, it was reported and he was arrested as soon as he got home. Moral of the story? Never use "Columbine" in any analogy to show what you want to do with bullies. Ever.
This comment is 3 years old but Ill ask how ask how much you're enjoying the direction of music in last 3 years! Man it gets better and better doesn't it!
Everyone needs to quit playing like they wasn't loving the hell out of limp Bizkit in 1995 or whenever it was! I seen them in concert with Redman method man and a unknown opening act system of a down! One of best live shows I've ever been too! Sadly not because of the music.
And LB ruined his chances of having a respectable career. After he left the band he tried getting something else going but he would always be the "guy from Limp Bizkit who wears costumes and body paint." And I guess he realized that too since he returned to the band.
Maybe one day the actual musicians of the band will actually be smart enough to leave that whiny crybaby, reunite with DJ Lethal, and get a brand new singer who can actually sing and form their own new band that actually showcases the talent of the musicians, kind of like how the musicians of Creed left Scott Stapp, hooked up with Myles Kennedy, and formed Alter Bridge.
Brandon Barenfeld and don't forget RATM with Audioslave (Chris Cornell of Soundgarden) and Prophets of Rage (CHUCK D/B-Real of Public Enemy and Cypress Hill respectively)
@@eliasmg9144 I bet he is (I don't listen to much RATM except for their songs that were in Guitar Hero and Rock Band), but I guess they parted ways for a while.
I admit, I like a little bit of Limp Bizkit, too. Even if I can't stand the frontman... And I did like "Head For the Barricade" for the chorus. The album itself was complete trash, though.
I dunno, I quite liked "Eat You Alive" & "Build A Bridge". Also, you're not alone on still being a LB fan. :D Despite their flaws, which are mostly Durst's, they never proclaimed to be lyrical geniuses. They just made catchy heavy music that was perfect for the era they lived in. Back then my dad's biggest opposition to me liking Heavy Metal wasn't the satanism or occult like back in the 80s, it was the idea that i would fall for a guy like the ones these artists portayed; the rebellion, the vulgarity, and dumb teens (myself included) eat this shit up. It's why we can't help but fall for the douche alpha male. And tbh, I totally had a crush on 1999-2003 Fred & Wes.
@@user-the-good-fella gold cobra wasn't even that bad but the parts where he used auto tune it's the musical equivilant of a old man trying to be hip to the young crowd
I’m a fan too, their first 2 albums are insanely awesome. Even Chocolate Starfish has moments that ROCK. You just have to get past some of the cringey lyrics and the music kicks ass.
I just realized that Luke missed a GOLDEN opportunity at 6:50 when he calls Limp Bizkit 'the musical equivalent of crack.' Remember LB's song they did performed at Wrestlemania 19? You know, where they were announced as 'the WWE's favorite band?' It was originally supposed to be on this album but left off for whatever reason. And what was the name of that song? "Crack Addict."
Well I will give Fred Durst some credit: He does give potential buyers a fair warning that this is going to be terrible when he names the album "Results may very".
charles cherris Very true, he says that everyone’s reactions will be different in the album so they should call it Results May Vary. He’s even said, “I highly recommend no one buying this album”, on stage a few times since he knew it wasn’t anything like their previous 3 albums. I recommend the MTV Album Launch documentary of the album since it’s interesting to see the making of this album.
I was never Bizkit fan, but retrospectively I can see their importance in the genre of Hard Rock. In a genre which at the time was very angsty, aggressive & introspective, thanks to the death/influence of Grunge in the mid 90s. Limp Bizkit were party music. They made choons that got the crowd in the club on the floor & moving. They were a gateway drug for the uninitiated. They weren’t deep, but not everything has to be. The sad part is...theirs been nothing like that in Rock since
Exactly!! Limp Bizkit and the whole Nü Metal genre is the only time in history that Metal got a lot of attention and changed the whole industry with hard music and sadly it won't happen ever again! But hey it's still cool to hate Fred and LB, like all the metal elitist do!
Party music doesn’t have a lot of staying power, why do you think people still talk about artists like Aphex Twin, but no one mentions Dubstep/Brostep acts like Skrillex or Knife Party? Same thing with this era of Rock/Metal, Post-Grunge got the same treatment
The irony here, the first single for this album was called "Crack Addict". They played it at wrestlemania, and it got limited radio play. They scrapped it when it recieved poor criticism
What's so crazy is the band hates this album, the lyrics were rushed, they were basically about to break up. They don't even play songs off this album live it's wild. But still a great record despite all the bs behind it!
I actually like Alien Ant Farm’s Smooth Criminal Cover. It’s energetic, very different from the original and actually is what got me to listen to the original.
@@nightmarefanatic1819 it's a corny ass nu metal version of a mj song. Ngl I dig it to but it's not hard to see why people dont think it's as good as the og it's just a classic while alien ant farms aged like milk by comparison
Oooh, this one *sucked*. A Limp Bizkit album with no Wes Borland is like a Michael Bay movie with no explosions. (Edit: I literally wrote this at the start of the review, and then 4:17 happened. Good to know we're on the same page!)
Just so you know...the people pictured in those images you used from the concert hoax in Dayton, OH a few months ago are not actual Limp Bizkit fans. They're a bunch of hipsters who showed up for the fake concert as a way to keep the mockery of Limp Bizkit going much longer than it should have. I know this because I live in Dayton and know a lot of the people who showed up to that Sunoco. It was all supposed to be a "haha, Limp Bizkit sucks" kind of thing...but now those people in those pictures will forever be thought of as actual Limp Bizkit fans. They clearly didn't think this through.
The only good thing of this is that Luke now has a good verb in order to swear without being vulgar, Limp Bizkit its just a big pile of Durst and this album is a disgusting Dusting piece of worthless Durst
Geez, this album must suck hard. I mean, I'm pretty indifferent towards LP (I had better alternatives if I was in the mood for rap metal, like From Ashes to New and Rage Against the Machine), and the only song I heard from this album was "Behind Blue Eyes", and that song put me to sleep if anything else. But, give Michael Bay some credit, at least he didn't put a Limp Bizkit track in his movies, and they offered some semblance of entertainment. (looking at you, Gothika)
+Matthew Cool At this point, it just seems like a thing to hate on Michael Bay, even if he isn't the worst movie director, at all. And I'm not saying that just because I like the Transformers movies, I like his other movies. But yeah, Limp Bizkit is pretty terrible. Mostly due to Fred Durst.
+Isaac Baranoff That's cool. I like a little bit of prog-metal, myself. But I honestly don't mind a little rap-metal, with bands like Hollywood Undead, Dangerkids, and From Ashes to New being some of my personal favorites. Then again, I'm into hard rock and metal, in general. I dunno, I _kinda_ was into some of Limp Bizkit's songs when I was younger, but most of them sounded boring to me. And as I got older, I pretty much cringed at majority of it's discography. But that's just me.
+Isaac Baranoff I like a bit of prog-metal and nu metal, I'm more into Hard Rock. Something not too heavy, just enough for a few energetic guitar solos.
"Carson Daley and Kid Rock found them cool." It's a bit like saying Nigel Farage is a good politician, because he coached Donald Trump, and was going to be his ambassador.
Bro, the moment you linked a Huffington Post article....you lost all credibility. Also, why would anybody be actual friends with people of a certain race, if they truly believed that that race was made up of nothing but thugs? Your little claim here doesn't make sense at all.
@@averagebritishguy7082 Especially as of lately, with that HORRIBLE Wall album. I claim his rendition of The Wall to be the worst album I've ever heard.
Manami Kinjou Fred Durst actually puts effort in making his band shit. Kid Rock on the other hand just takes samples from good songs & tries to pass it as his own original material. However both are Platinum sellers... 😥 No matter how you look at it, the pain still remains.
Manami Kinjou kid rock makes horrible music, but is actually supposedly a rly nice guy in real life. Fred durst is a piece of durst in every way possible
Fred Durst is a talentless hack but at the very VERY least the music he makes is actually his music as opposed to Kid Rock who rips off music from other people adds a repetitive chorus and 2 verses and tries to pass it as his own.
Well, never thought I'd see him cover Limp Bizkit again. And that's what I should be telling myself. So, I heard this album too, and here are my thoughts.
1: Very forgettable. Even more than the last intro song. 2: Jesus, that's creepy as fuck. No, scratch that. It's worse than creepy, it's a fucking stalker track. 3: It's just empty boasting and shitty rapping. 4: Now this was dull and headache-inducing. I don't like this song. 5: Boring and Poorly Written. Moving on... 6: It's mind-numbing and repetitive, and I mean repetitive. Like Frank Miller-levels of repetitive. Seriously, it's like he repeats his lines over and over again. 7: Wow this was fucking boring, I almost fell asleep to this. 8: Only thing that saved this song, was the presence of another rapper. Who is way better than Fred Durst. 9: No. Just no. I almost gave up after listening to this song. 10: Meh. At least this was better than the other tracks. I still didn't like it. 11: Fucking Shit, I've had actual HS students that are actually less whiny than this asshole. 12: This song sucks. Like majority of this album. 13: Well, it was all your fault. If you think Radio is Dead, or dying. 14: Trash. 15: This is a really bad cover of an otherwise great song. Also, what the hell is with that robot voice? It's really awful and out of place. 16: I'd rather drown than listen to anymore of this shit. Thank god, it's the last track. So, yeah. Results May Vary managed to be even WORSE than Chocolate Starfish, it's just awful. This album fucking sucks. It's boring and monotone, and has really repetitive lyrics. It's terrible. Note: I really liked the Alien Ant Farm cover of "Smooth Criminal", even if that was the only song they're noted for.
+Aiko Yumi That's pretty interesting. Here's what I think of the album; 1: Shit 2: Shit 3: Confusing 4: Boring 5: Also Boring 6: Shit 7: Eh, not impressive 8: Well, I didn't hate it 9: Fuck no. I'm out. 10: Boring, but not the worst. 11: Fuck, I may have my own bitch fits, but Jesus Christ, I wasn't _this_ whiny in high school. 12: I didn't like this. At all. 13: Shit 14: I have no words for this song. I just don't. 15: This song is boring as shit. And, I had this stuck in my head for a *long* time. I blame you, Gothika. 16: I fucking hate this song. But at least it was the last track. Fuck Results May Vary, it's monotone, it's boring, it's stupid, and it somehow manages to both anger me and puts me to sleep. I like nu metal, but Limp Bizkit can go fuck themselves.
+Sena Kashiwazaki You have some colorful language. I personally don't listen to Limp Bizkit (I'm not into nu metal), and I probably won't. I can see why people may hate them so much.
Sena Kashiwazaki Wait Elektra had the-cover-song-that-must-not-be-named playing in the movie? I thought it was the movie Gothika starring Halle Berry that introduced it to the general public with the end credits, music video and all. Also The Angry Birds Movie used it recently and it's on their soundtrack.
JayDee284 True! But this was the time when record sales were huge in the music industry. So sadly Limp Bizkit could get away with selling ridiculous amounts of albums.
LOL unfortunately the Chocolate Starfish album still gets sold in record stores nowadays along with Significant Other. This particular album, however, was apparently so bad that CD copies are out of print now.
well, I was having a good day at work, but then I saw that Limp Bizkit will be making a comeback album in 2017. ... EVERYONE PANIC! THAT'S IT! GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!!!
the first time I heard a limp bizkit song, I legitimately thought it was either a joke song or a joke band.... sadly I was wrong Edit: I’m 21 now and limp bizkit is one of my favorite bands, fun ass music man I wish I could’ve grown up earlier and not have taken it so seriously
I remember loving Eat you alive on MTV. When I was 14 and my englisch was pretty bad. But 2003 was not only the year "Results may vary" was released. Need for Speed: Underground 2 had Queens of the Stone Age. I went with Lullabies to Paralyze. EA really save my musical taste.
@@ideitbawxproductions1880 It's hard to believe now considering how awful the company is, but back in the day EA did publish and/or develop some amazing videogames. Need For Speed: Underground 1 & 2 and Most Wanted were among those games.
Rocked my sister hates Limp Bizkit but loves Black Light Burns. There's a reason why. I will say that The Unquestionable Truth is a good album mainly because the music is awesome and the lyrics aren't terrible
BLB was the end result of something Wes had been wanting to do for years. In fact he originally wanted to do an instrumental album akin to a movie score (something he would later release as a solo album). Cruel Melody is by far one of the best things he's ever done.
Honestly, all the musicians that were apart of Limp Bizkit had talent, and then there was Fred Durst, a loud, immature, man-child that made songs about sex, angsty teen problems and being a tough guy. I dislike Fred Durst with a burning passion.
It is one of the better songs yeah. This album isn't nearly as bad as some make it out to be. Bloated but has some decent songs on it like Phenomenon and Down Another Day.
Hearing that cover of behind blue eyes made me ashamed of having blue eyes, and then promptly changed it to the Bruce Dickinson live cover to get that pile of durst out of my head
The thing that gets me about this album is that it's mostly sounds _really_ fucking boring from these snippets. At least their other songs like "Break Stuff" and "Rollin'" are so loud and dumb that I can enjoy them on a so bad it's good level. These songs are just putting me to sleep, yet Durst's singing voice is so awful that it's keeping me awake at the same time.
Yeah Limp Bizkit fans wouldn't enjoy it because the songs are too boring and monotone, and other people wouldn't like it because of Durst's terrible lyrics and bad rapping still being around.
The song "Head for the Barricade" was also used in that terrible "Fight Club" videogame where Durst was an unlockable hidden character. (Yes that really happened. lol)
I have a hypothesis. Fred Durst continues to have an audience for the same reason we continue to have internet trolls: Because being angry is fun. It takes effort to maintain status as a functioning adult, watching everything we say and do in public lest we upset the delicate balance of civilized life. You make these videos, we watch these videos, Limp Bizkit makes "music", people buy and voraciously defend that "music", all for the same reason: So we can have the momentary satisfaction of lashing out. It doesn't even matter what we're angry about, just so we can get that adrenaline thrill of roaring as loud as we can. It's not healthy, but it's addictive in the long term and incredibly satisfying in the short term -- much like that crack addition you were joking about near the start of the review. The other big factor is teenage angst. To be that age when we could say shit, get in trouble, and whine about how nobody liked us and life was so hard. Do that as an adult and everyone would think you were a freak. Do that as a kid and nobody cares because you're just a teenager. There is an allure to the notion of never having to grow up, and I think that's ultimately what this is all about -- reliving the glory days of being a teenager. Because even if it sucked in high school, there are some who may genuinely believe that life as an adult is even worse.
What happened here? Almost nothing was worth listening to. At least Chocolate Starfish had a few catchy songs to it, but most of this stuff was boring. I mean, I could find some catchiness in Head for the Barricade, but even that made me feel uncomfortable. Especially since I had an older brother who was a victim of a school shooting.
I own this album and all the albums by Limp Bizkit. They are a guilty pleasure for me, usually for the music. I agree 100% with the whining and terrible lyrics. What I say to people is I like Limp Bizkit in spite of Fred. While my musical tastes have shifted, hearing the music brings me back to that time. I love Rocked Reviews! Keep it up and if you have any links up to your music I'd love to hear it!
jacksonesptama13 I like Limp for the most part, but Wes REALLY made it for me. Fred seemed cool when I was in high school, but so did Dahvie Vanity, so.
I don't like LB, but you do you. Like what you like. I'm pretty sure everyone likes SOME band that most people fins cringey (I like Weathered by Creed) so its cool.✌
You know why Limb Bizkit was GREAT METAL for its time? It hunted on the fears of parents of THAT TIME... late nineties... The scariest thing was a confident man with a hip appearance that wanted to fuck your 18 year old. In the same way 80's band exploited the SATANIC craze so did NU-METAL bands the fears of the late nineties. Don't hate, but yeah Limb Bizkit is product of its age and doesn't 'age' very well AT ALL. *puke* Take it from a 31 year old that was 15 at the time... Those nu-metal brads we all hate so much now? Were the scariest thing a mother and father had to DEAL with at that time. Much love my metal brothers and sisters.
Ghostdialoog Most people still hated Limp Bizkit for being trash music at the time as well. If anything, people who listened to Limp Bizkit were some of the most picked on kids out there.
Nope. It was even awful for that time. Sure it was a bad time for rock and metal, but here was so many different bands at the time, many a lot better. There was Deftones, there was RATM, there was Tool, and I could go on, all of them thousand times better and more original than Limp Bizkit.
Good music does not age. There is a reason why people listen to music from 90's, 80's, 70's, 60's, and so on. There is a reason why people still listen to classical music.which is several centuries old.
Ghostdialoog+There was worse music as far as parents were concerned.... Dimmur Borger, Anal Count, Slipknot, Hatebreed, Cradle of Filth, Marilyn Manson although Manson more rhythmic than the others, Anti Christ Superstar definitely scared my parents. I think some of Limp Bizkits songs are still relevant, obviously the ones 15 year old kids listen to. There's not a ton, 6 or 7 but my nieces and nephew listen to them, Sevendust, a lot of stuff, obviously slipknot, etc.
The problem I have with Results May Vary is how disjointed and unfocused this album was. On one side, some of it is just Durst barking expletives on how misunderstood he is (or in Eat You Alive and Head For The Barricade's case, being a creepy stalker rapist or a violent psychopath, respectively) and on the other, is him feeling depressed and droning on and on about it. And as for the Behind Blue Eyes cover, it has a decent hook to it but is hindered by the robotic "Speak and Say" in the middle. Plus the fact that is came out around the same time as Linkin Park's Meteora, it really didn't look too good for Limp Bizkit.
You can make reference to it and make it a topic in a song, you just need the neccessary talent, intelligence and finesse for it. Fred Durst doesn't have any of that.
Imo their ONLY good song is "Counterfeit". My fiance still loves Limp Bizkit & I've tried to make him see the light that it's only nostalgia that clouds his perception but I haven't won him over yet lol.
On the plus side, they did get Borland back after this, and The Unquestionable Truth was actually fantastic album. Easily the most genuinely angry thing the band has EVER done, and it tackled some real, social subject matter. And I love it! I still rock out to The Truth and The Priest especially, and those songs still make me want to wreck shit. ...It's a shame they never stuck with that (either that sound didn't sell well-which I don't know what they were expecting considering they dropped the album unannounced and without any radio play at all, or they got scared of being accused of ripping off RATM, or something). Once Fred got whatever was actually bothering him out of his system, they just went back to doing what they were doing in 2001. And it sucked.
Which highlights the problem with Limp Bizkit beyond Durst: an unwillingness to experiment with their sound. Yeah, everyone in the band except Durst is actually a pretty competent musician, but they've been repeating the same chunk-a-chunk riffs over the same breakbeats for the past 20 years, and every time it seems like they're going to do something new (a ballad that shows a little different side, like Boiler or Rearranged; a straight rap song like In 2gether Now, something with genuine rage and fire like The Unquestionable Truth), they abandon it to go right back to what works. And that's why they've been suffering the law of diminishing returns for the past 15 years! So many other nu-metal bands saw the writing on the wall around 2002 and 2003, when As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, and Killswitch first started getting big, and realized they had to do something. Linkin Park went stadium rock. Disturbed went more old-school hard rock/mainstream metal. Saliva embraced the more blues-rock side of their sound.Drowning Pool went more old-school as well. Korn said, "fuck it, we'll do what we want", and one can argue with the results all they want but hey at least they didn't stay stuck. Slipknot actually found the balance between unrelenting heaviness and pop acceptability that I think they completely failed at with Iowa (or as I call it, "Death Metal Backstreet Boys"). Deftones were always the most daring and experimental nu-metal band to begin with, so they just kept doing them and going wherever their muse takes them. Same thing with SOAD. If anything, they managed to get even more weird. Dez folded Coal Chamber and started DevilDriver, which very quickly went from nu-metal to just straight up New Wave of American Metal in like 1 album! Ill Nino went in more of an In Flames-lite direction. About the only bands from that era that basically kept their sound and maintained there popularity if not got bigger, were Godsmack, Sevendust, and Incubus. And let's be honest...those bands were never really nu-metal to begin with. They were heavy-alternative bands, much more heavily influenced by grunge than by Coal Chamber or Korn. They just got labeled nu-metal because they came out in the late-90's, were heavy bands, and Brandon Boyd likes to rap every now and then (okay....those first like 2 albums, the ones no one ever bought and no one even remembers, were more nu-metal, but everything from Make Yourself on is decidedly NOT). And then there's Limp Bizkit, who never jumped ship, never changed to suit the times, and is sitting around now wondering where the hell everyone went.
I doubt I'll ever get this message out to Rocked, but here's he reason why Limp Bizkit fans still love the band. OK, As someone who's not a hard working man (but also a clean guy cause I never did drugs or drank alcohol) with a very dull boring life with very slow process in life. I need someone to vent out my frustration for everything and envy for power and opportunity. Fred Durst in many ways represent ourselves. Losers. Who are mistreated, looked down, made fun of and a desire to rule the world like a god. And we all cry to ourselves when nothing plays out like we wanted. The melodramatic whiny lyrics reflect on how we truly feel and the edgy, not tough "look how cool I am" kind of style has us wishing that we're like that in public. They love Limp Bizkit because they are sad pathetic losers who can't cut it in life and they listen to their music to convince themselves that they are "kewl" and that everything would be alright, if not vent it all out and root for Fred Durst to continue "speaking for the little guys" and not do a thing to change themselves into better people. Like a symbol. That the fans can believe that a "whiny uncool loser" can be successful. To fulfill their wishful thinking. And when people like you come in and explain how bad their music is, it's like the harsh picture of reality coming down and hit them really hard like a wrecking ball. It really hurts to be reminded that we aren't doing well with are lives to achieve goals, let alone be happy with a selfish carefree fantasy we desire it to be real. Saying "Limp Bizkit suck because they are a horrible band" is like telling us they "we are lazy, we are obnoxious, we are idiots, etc" Fred Durst is the embodiment of every tempered, self centered, ruthless deadbeat human being that wishes more than what they had. They have no good defense or points for the band because they themselves are bad. That's not to say every fan is like this, I personally enjoy their sound, beats and I don't have a problem with Durst's vocals. (though his lyrics REALLY could use work) And I'm sure there are plenty of Limp Bizkit fans out there who are better people then they were. With all the millennials being self important stuck up brats you could find on social media nowadays, you have to admit that Limp Bizkit had something that made them money and the reason why they were popular in the first place. But hey, what do I know? I'm just a nobody.
Here's a fun story: My second rock album of all time was this one. I was 9 years old. Wanna know wich one was the third? St anger. Needless to say I was a kid and everything was the shit to me in that time without having any knowledge of music whatsoever. It was a few years later that I discovered master of puppets and realized everything I listened before that was crap. But gotta admit, even after all those years passed and so many other music genres in my life, I still love Korn and I think they're the shit.
To be honest sometimes simple is good. It doesn't always to have to technical or complicated to be good. I can sit down and enjoy a Rammstein album just as much as a Children of Bodom album. Even though Children of Bodom are a lot more proficient with their guitar work and solos. All depends on what you are in the mood for.
half the audience who bought this album also felt so dur hur hur clever 'cause the booklet had Tyler Durden/Fight Club references Thats another ginormous negative to this mess!
27:40 And now, a quote from Roger Ebert to sum up this album in the same manner as Master of Disguise: "This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't even deserve to be in the same SENTENCE with barrels."
30:21 Nah, Faith No More’s cover of “Easy” (Like Sunday Morning) is way better than AAE’s cover of Smooth Criminal and Limp Bizkit’s cover of “Behind Blue Eyes” combined
I like ONE song by LB. And that's "My Way." And I'm not sure if that's on Limp Bizkit, or Wrestlemania X-Seven. And almost NONE of that had to do with Durst. ... Seriously though, I can really jam to My Way for some reason.
Watching this on my iPhone, I put my hand behind the speaker in hopes the others in the area are judging me for listening to Limp Bizkit, but then assaulting myself with their music. Which is worse- people's judgement on someone listening to Limp Bizkit or actually listening to Limp Bizket?... oh god
There was a much earlier example of how outclassed Durst is next to other singers, on Korns Follow The Leader, the song All In The Family. Jon Davis and Fred Durst basically have a little rap battle going on in there and good god did Durst lose that one.
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet but with them scrapping the Mike Smith tracks, a whole album had to be scrapped. Among those scrapped tracks was a track that they premiered in March called “Crack Addict”. Wrestling fans know this as the theme for WrestleMania XIX that year. The band, along with Mike and Head from Korn on guitars performed it live that night.
Their first 3 albums were atleast entertaining to listen to and had sick ass guitar riffs but Results May Vary has nothing to it that makes it entertaining.
Personally, I kinda like the smooth criminal cover. I don't think alien ant farm is a good band though, but it was quirky and fun so I'll give em that.
Omg. That “still tastes better than Fresca” line fucking killed me. So years ago I was sick and someone brought me a 12 pack of Fresca. I tried one and hated it but I figured I’d leave the rest for someone else in the house to drink if they wanted them. The other 11 cans of that 12 pack sat in my garage for like 4 years before I finally gave up and just threw the rest away. NOBODY wanted to drink a Fresca! It’s such a dog shit drink! But ya, that’s why I laughed so damn hard at that. It just hit me personally in a way I was not prepared for...
I kinda want Todd in the Shadows to cover this album on TrainWreakers. Other then that I can't stand Fred Durst when I was 5 years old when this POS of a album came out. On top of that did Fred Durst's "Eat you alive" copied "bruises" by Unloco. Geez no wonder Durst can't rap or sing.
+Rocked I am now officially using "Durst" as a Verb, to describe overgrown, insecure man-children. You are truly a scholar my dear man! Also, 27:53 had me DEAD!!
I'll take it all, noun, verb, adjective. I did mean adjective so please excuse me for I am Dursting in my response. (does stupid Durst pose with a red backwards hat on trying to look tough)
Fred learned to rap as a little boy Fred learned to crap as a lil boy Now he still raps like a little boy Craps his pants like a little boy. YEEAAAHHHH!!!
Results May Vary makes Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water look like The Dark Side of the Moon in comparison. Wow, I never thought I’d mention Limp Bizkit and Pink Floyd in the same sentence.
Results may Vary came out in 2003. Fred Durst was born in 1970. Meaning he was 33 years old when he wrote those lines about high school.
Mouse Trap read somewhere that he was born in 1971
Possible, I'm just going by wikipedia.
Mouse Trap Jesus Christ he’s the same age as my mum
St. Anger also came out in 2003.
Mouse Trap wow you mean he was a teenager during the major thrash metal era but he’s whiny I don’t get it.
Had a schoolmate who, upon seeing his girlfriend get harassed, threatened "Stop that or I'll pull a Columbine on you!" Needless to say, it was reported and he was arrested as soon as he got home. Moral of the story? Never use "Columbine" in any analogy to show what you want to do with bullies. Ever.
Sold more copies than any Motörhead album?! Lemmy must be rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' in his grave. What was wrong with us in the early 2000s?
Even to this day, Limp Bizkit is still more popular.
This comment is 3 years old but Ill ask how ask how much you're enjoying the direction of music in last 3 years! Man it gets better and better doesn't it!

Everyone needs to quit playing like they wasn't loving the hell out of limp Bizkit in 1995 or whenever it was! I seen them in concert with Redman method man and a unknown opening act system of a down! One of best live shows I've ever been too! Sadly not because of the music.

Well, the crippling depressing Fred Durst is currently suffering from is keeping them from living.

Rocked Thanks!
WHY AM I SEEING YOU EVERYWHERE ALL OF A SUDDEN?
I swear you seem so short in your videos. How tall are you?
Moral of the story. Wes Borland is the best and most interesting musician in Limp Bizkit
And LB ruined his chances of having a respectable career. After he left the band he tried getting something else going but he would always be the "guy from Limp Bizkit who wears costumes and body paint." And I guess he realized that too since he returned to the band.
Isaac Baranoff Thought Black Light Burns broke up. Or maybe they switched singers and I lost interest. One of the two
John Otto the drummer doesn't get enough credit though
No doubt, Wes is very cool.

Durst: (Verb)
To intentionally worsen an art or an object to fit in an image.
You just had to durst the album!
Fred Durst has an army of red-hat-wearing ravenous fanatics?
Has Fred Durst considered going into politics?
Please don't give him ideas. The state of Florida might actually vote for him.
How do they not move on after 1999?
Innugamiproductions #MakeAmericaLimpAgain
Kyle Hegedus oof
Durst disagrees with Trump, and from what I can gather thinks trump is an arsehole, so we're safe
I have one positive thing to say about "Behind Blue Eyes". At least Fred Durst doesn't try to rap on that one.
knight wing Very true. That would be the final nail in the coffin basically.
Christian Guillen the speak n spell was the worst thing in that
Knight Wing this was also featured in the Angry Birds Movie
Flying V I still can’t believe that they used a Limp Bizkit Song...for a kids movie? (And it’s not even theirs.)
@@FlyingV555 Weird way to spell Gothika
Maybe one day the actual musicians of the band will actually be smart enough to leave that whiny crybaby, reunite with DJ Lethal, and get a brand new singer who can actually sing and form their own new band that actually showcases the talent of the musicians, kind of like how the musicians of Creed left Scott Stapp, hooked up with Myles Kennedy, and formed Alter Bridge.
Brandon Barenfeld and don't forget RATM with Audioslave (Chris Cornell of Soundgarden) and Prophets of Rage (CHUCK D/B-Real of Public Enemy and Cypress Hill respectively)
@@K.J.S.est1994 are you implying Zach isn't good?
@@eliasmg9144 I bet he is (I don't listen to much RATM except for their songs that were in Guitar Hero and Rock Band), but I guess they parted ways for a while.

The Unquestionable Truth (part 1) is the closest example of that happening. Fred sounds amazing in that album. Go give it a listen if you haven’t yet.
I personally like results may vary but I can see why people hate it
Like what you like. We all like different things.
Ryan Gartz it was the first cd I bought, one of my favorites.
Rocked agreed
Also if I'm being honest this is my least favorite limp bizkit album next to the previous one
I don't see why. This was shit.
As an actual Limp Bizkit fan (yeah, they exist), even I can't stand this album. They should have stuck to their earlier sound.
I admit, I like a little bit of Limp Bizkit, too. Even if I can't stand the frontman...
And I did like "Head For the Barricade" for the chorus. The album itself was complete trash, though.
I dunno, I quite liked "Eat You Alive" & "Build A Bridge".
Also, you're not alone on still being a LB fan. :D
Despite their flaws, which are mostly Durst's, they never proclaimed to be lyrical geniuses. They just made catchy heavy music that was perfect for the era they lived in. Back then my dad's biggest opposition to me liking Heavy Metal wasn't the satanism or occult like back in the 80s, it was the idea that i would fall for a guy like the ones these artists portayed; the rebellion, the vulgarity, and dumb teens (myself included) eat this shit up. It's why we can't help but fall for the douche alpha male. And tbh, I totally had a crush on 1999-2003 Fred & Wes.
It was no 3 dollar bill
@@user-the-good-fella gold cobra wasn't even that bad but the parts where he used auto tune it's the musical equivilant of a old man trying to be hip to the young crowd
I’m a fan too, their first 2 albums are insanely awesome. Even Chocolate Starfish has moments that ROCK. You just have to get past some of the cringey lyrics and the music kicks ass.
I just realized that Luke missed a GOLDEN opportunity at 6:50 when he calls Limp Bizkit 'the musical equivalent of crack.' Remember LB's song they did performed at Wrestlemania 19? You know, where they were announced as 'the WWE's favorite band?' It was originally supposed to be on this album but left off for whatever reason. And what was the name of that song? "Crack Addict."
Headcase I was also thinking this lol
Although the song doesn´t refeer to Crack, the drug, but as the Bands addiction to CRACKING skulls with their music ;)...go figure.
@@dancademartori5909seems like a rehash of "break stuff" tbh, i can understand why it was left off the album then
MORE THAN ANY MOTORHEAD ALBUM?! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!
My exact reaction
I didn't believe it at first either but I checked. It's legit.
+Sanwal Abbas
Really? People think THIS is better than Mötorhead? Seriously?
Sanwal Abbas Unfortantly Motörhead sold way more band shirts then albums
Thats just depressing
This entire album: "man this song could've been good, but it went absolutely nowhere/ Fred Durst murdered it".
The entirety of Limp Bizkits discography can be summed up like this.
He even ruined Fight Club. For me at least.
He also ruined food for me, and breathing. And orgasms.
A cover of limp biskit songs but with a good vocalist
Limp Bizkit in general
Your "Regretting the Past" series has officially become my new drug in a matter of days! Keep it up.
Well I will give Fred Durst some credit: He does give potential buyers a fair warning that this is going to be terrible when he names the album "Results may very".
charles cherris Very true, he says that everyone’s reactions will be different in the album so they should call it Results May Vary. He’s even said, “I highly recommend no one buying this album”, on stage a few times since he knew it wasn’t anything like their previous 3 albums. I recommend the MTV Album Launch documentary of the album since it’s interesting to see the making of this album.
Don't forget referring to himself as a chocolate starfish
Kinda like when Megadeth released Risk, it was a brilliant name because what the band did was definitely a risk.
@DBZandGT4Life me too
Interesting fact - this album was initially gonna be called Panty Sniffer.
Wait, water's wet and the sky is blue? WHAT THE HELL IS SCHOOL TEACHING ME?

I was never Bizkit fan, but retrospectively I can see their importance in the genre of Hard Rock.
In a genre which at the time was very angsty, aggressive & introspective, thanks to the death/influence of Grunge in the mid 90s. Limp Bizkit were party music. They made choons that got the crowd in the club on the floor & moving. They were a gateway drug for the uninitiated. They weren’t deep, but not everything has to be. The sad part is...theirs been nothing like that in Rock since
Real as fuck
Exactly!! Limp Bizkit and the whole Nü Metal genre is the only time in history that Metal got a lot of attention and changed the whole industry with hard music and sadly it won't happen ever again!
But hey it's still cool to hate Fred and LB, like all the metal elitist do!
Party music doesn’t have a lot of staying power, why do you think people still talk about artists like Aphex Twin, but no one mentions Dubstep/Brostep acts like Skrillex or Knife Party? Same thing with this era of Rock/Metal, Post-Grunge got the same treatment
Quick point-of-reference:
Fred Durst is a literal Florida Man.
The irony here, the first single for this album was called "Crack Addict". They played it at wrestlemania, and it got limited radio play. They scrapped it when it recieved poor criticism
You should've had Deftones self titled on standby as an emergency detox to show a nu metal band with a great 2003 release
Meteora by Linkin Park too that came out in 03.
***** True, but it's still eons upon eons above this
Charlie .Hubbard Evanescence's Fallen could Also count.
What's so crazy is the band hates this album, the lyrics were rushed, they were basically about to break up. They don't even play songs off this album live it's wild. But still a great record despite all the bs behind it!
"Attila and Limp Bizkit for life."
That last thing one someone said to me before I stopped talking to them.
Good call. You don't need that in your life.
No joke, I had a friend who said that.
+Grilmour Isn't Attila that band where the lead singer screams on how he's the "best", only to come off as an arrogant tosser?
Grilmour are you being serious
I would Say it
An album that's about as disgusting as an actual game of Limp Biscuit.
In 2016, Deadpool dissed Limp Bizkit.
In 2018, Deadpool defended Nickelback.
Just putting that out there.
Wade only said that because he's Canadian.
Nickelback actually tries while Limp Bizkit phones it in.
In my opinion tho, I think Limp is pretty enjoyable. Nickelback tho is one of my least favorite bands of all time
Well its deadpool, he is obviously trolling
I actually like Alien Ant Farm’s Smooth Criminal Cover. It’s energetic, very different from the original and actually is what got me to listen to the original.
I didn't know it was widely hated. I like that song and everyone I know who's heard it does too.
@@nightmarefanatic1819 it's a corny ass nu metal version of a mj song. Ngl I dig it to but it's not hard to see why people dont think it's as good as the og it's just a classic while alien ant farms aged like milk by comparison
I love it. Discovered it back in 2010, played it nonstop almost for days haha.
I like alien ant farm, but the song has been tired and overplayed. Didn't care for it much when it came out and can't stand it anymore. Cringe.
I'll gladly take Alien Ant Farm over Limp Bizkit, mainly for the Ed, Edd and Eddy vibes
Oooh, this one *sucked*. A Limp Bizkit album with no Wes Borland is like a Michael Bay movie with no explosions.
(Edit: I literally wrote this at the start of the review, and then 4:17 happened. Good to know we're on the same page!)
Honestly, that'd be an insult to Michael Bay.
At least he put in some effort towards his work, unlike Fred Durst...
Just so you know...the people pictured in those images you used from the concert hoax in Dayton, OH a few months ago are not actual Limp Bizkit fans. They're a bunch of hipsters who showed up for the fake concert as a way to keep the mockery of Limp Bizkit going much longer than it should have. I know this because I live in Dayton and know a lot of the people who showed up to that Sunoco. It was all supposed to be a "haha, Limp Bizkit sucks" kind of thing...but now those people in those pictures will forever be thought of as actual Limp Bizkit fans. They clearly didn't think this through.
YIKES. I always appreciate some harmless (relatively) trolling, but that was a massive backfire.
And there it is....Behind Blue Eyes.
I told all my friends this was garbage back then and nobody listened. I survived.
The only good thing of this is that Luke now has a good verb in order to swear without being vulgar, Limp Bizkit its just a big pile of Durst and this album is a disgusting Dusting piece of worthless Durst
I'm surprised Luke didn't bring up anything about Bill Paxton being in the music video for "Eat You Alive".
Wait, really?
He deserves better than that...
@ she's way too attractive to have been in this. It saddens me, and was in love with her as a child when I saw her in Hocus Pocus......I am old
Bill Paxton died in 2015
@@minaashido5678 2017 actually
I really felt bad for the poor woman in the music video. She deserved a better role in a better music video than that "pile of durst".
Geez, this album must suck hard. I mean, I'm pretty indifferent towards LP (I had better alternatives if I was in the mood for rap metal, like From Ashes to New and Rage Against the Machine), and the only song I heard from this album was "Behind Blue Eyes", and that song put me to sleep if anything else.
But, give Michael Bay some credit, at least he didn't put a Limp Bizkit track in his movies, and they offered some semblance of entertainment. (looking at you, Gothika)
+Matthew Cool At this point, it just seems like a thing to hate on Michael Bay, even if he isn't the worst movie director, at all.
And I'm not saying that just because I like the Transformers movies, I like his other movies.
But yeah, Limp Bizkit is pretty terrible. Mostly due to Fred Durst.
+Isaac Baranoff That's cool. I like a little bit of prog-metal, myself.
But I honestly don't mind a little rap-metal, with bands like Hollywood Undead, Dangerkids, and From Ashes to New being some of my personal favorites.
Then again, I'm into hard rock and metal, in general. I dunno, I _kinda_ was into some of Limp Bizkit's songs when I was younger, but most of them sounded boring to me. And as I got older, I pretty much cringed at majority of it's discography.
But that's just me.
+Isaac Baranoff I like a bit of prog-metal and nu metal, I'm more into Hard Rock.
Something not too heavy, just enough for a few energetic guitar solos.
+Matthew Cool At least From Ashes to New can make something catchy.
+Isaac McSpadden "Variety"

2 Ideas for regretting the past: Van Halen III by Van Halen and The Gift Of Game by Crazy Town

Of course the difference between Limp Bizkit and socks is at least socks can sometimes be fun in design
And keep your feet warm.
Some of my favourite socks do both!
So, which do you think is more phony?
Fred Durst or Kid Rock?
Manami Kinjou Fred Durst actually puts effort in making his band shit. Kid Rock on the other hand just takes samples from good songs & tries to pass it as his own original material. However both are Platinum sellers... 😥
No matter how you look at it, the pain still remains.
Manami Kinjou kid rock makes horrible music, but is actually supposedly a rly nice guy in real life. Fred durst is a piece of durst in every way possible
Fred Durst is a talentless hack but at the very VERY least the music he makes is actually his music as opposed to Kid Rock who rips off music from other people adds a repetitive chorus and 2 verses and tries to pass it as his own.
Do I have to choose on which is worse?
Kid Rock is more phoney. Fred Durst and Chad Kroeger have more depth in their voices than him.
"Durst should be a verb" XD
Or adjective. Or something. It just needs to happen.
Well, never thought I'd see him cover Limp Bizkit again.
And that's what I should be telling myself.
So, I heard this album too, and here are my thoughts.
1: Very forgettable. Even more than the last intro song.
2: Jesus, that's creepy as fuck. No, scratch that. It's worse than creepy, it's a fucking stalker track.
3: It's just empty boasting and shitty rapping.
4: Now this was dull and headache-inducing. I don't like this song.
5: Boring and Poorly Written. Moving on...
6: It's mind-numbing and repetitive, and I mean repetitive. Like Frank Miller-levels of repetitive. Seriously, it's like he repeats his lines over and over again.
7: Wow this was fucking boring, I almost fell asleep to this.
8: Only thing that saved this song, was the presence of another rapper. Who is way better than Fred Durst.
9: No. Just no. I almost gave up after listening to this song.
10: Meh. At least this was better than the other tracks. I still didn't like it.
11: Fucking Shit, I've had actual HS students that are actually less whiny than this asshole.
12: This song sucks. Like majority of this album.
13: Well, it was all your fault. If you think Radio is Dead, or dying.
14: Trash.
15: This is a really bad cover of an otherwise great song. Also, what the hell is with that robot voice? It's really awful and out of place.
16: I'd rather drown than listen to anymore of this shit. Thank god, it's the last track.
So, yeah. Results May Vary managed to be even WORSE than Chocolate Starfish, it's just awful.
This album fucking sucks. It's boring and monotone, and has really repetitive lyrics. It's terrible.
Note: I really liked the Alien Ant Farm cover of "Smooth Criminal", even if that was the only song they're noted for.
+Aiko Yumi
That's pretty interesting. Here's what I think of the album;
1: Shit
2: Shit
3: Confusing
4: Boring
5: Also Boring
6: Shit
7: Eh, not impressive
8: Well, I didn't hate it
9: Fuck no. I'm out.
10: Boring, but not the worst.
11: Fuck, I may have my own bitch fits, but Jesus Christ, I wasn't _this_ whiny in high school.
12: I didn't like this. At all.
13: Shit
14: I have no words for this song. I just don't.
15: This song is boring as shit. And, I had this stuck in my head for a *long* time. I blame you, Gothika.
16: I fucking hate this song. But at least it was the last track.
Fuck Results May Vary, it's monotone, it's boring, it's stupid, and it somehow manages to both anger me and puts me to sleep.
I like nu metal, but Limp Bizkit can go fuck themselves.
+Sena Kashiwazaki You have some colorful language. I personally don't listen to Limp Bizkit (I'm not into nu metal), and I probably won't. I can see why people may hate them so much.
Sena Kashiwazaki Wait Elektra had the-cover-song-that-must-not-be-named playing in the movie? I thought it was the movie Gothika starring Halle Berry that introduced it to the general public with the end credits, music video and all. Also The Angry Birds Movie used it recently and it's on their soundtrack.
Yeah, only like *two* songs are "fight" songs, while the others are just sappy and boring.
I think More people buy more Motorhead Albums than Limp Bizkit nowadays
JayDee284 True! But this was the time when record sales were huge in the music industry. So sadly Limp Bizkit could get away with selling ridiculous amounts of albums.
NickTheCritic1
I have feeling most of them have ended up in a Landfill like ET nowadays
LOL unfortunately the Chocolate Starfish album still gets sold in record stores nowadays along with Significant Other. This particular album, however, was apparently so bad that CD copies are out of print now.
RIP Lemmy. You'll always be missed.
well, I was having a good day at work, but then I saw that Limp Bizkit will be making a comeback album in 2017.
... EVERYONE PANIC! THAT'S IT! GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!!!
Austyn weezy That makes me feel a little better. & hey at least we're still gonna get something new from AFI!
Their last one was Golden Cobra in 2011 and that sucked too. Oh well, at least SOAD and Slipknot might be making releases in 2017.
Demon Rantz Let's all pray that SOAD will be our salvation!
Hello!Nurd They've apparently written 15 new songs :)

Rocked true
Jackson The Epic that was me when I first heard “Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)” By The Offspring
I remember loving Eat you alive on MTV. When I was 14 and my englisch was pretty bad. But 2003 was not only the year "Results may vary" was released. Need for Speed: Underground 2 had Queens of the Stone Age. I went with Lullabies to Paralyze. EA really save my musical taste.

I actually heard a few BLB songs and I thought they were fine. I had no problem with them at all.
Rocked my sister hates Limp Bizkit but loves Black Light Burns. There's a reason why. I will say that The Unquestionable Truth is a good album mainly because the music is awesome and the lyrics aren't terrible
BLB was the end result of something Wes had been wanting to do for years. In fact he originally wanted to do an instrumental album akin to a movie score (something he would later release as a solo album). Cruel Melody is by far one of the best things he's ever done.
.
Bruh what do you expect when the album cover is literally just a picture of Fred Durst angrily screaming with a green background?
Honestly, all the musicians that were apart of Limp Bizkit had talent, and then there was Fred Durst, a loud, immature, man-child that made songs about sex, angsty teen problems and being a tough guy. I dislike Fred Durst with a burning passion.
I bought this cd when I was 17 and I loved it. Lonely World is a great track.
nope
Not for me
It is one of the better songs yeah. This album isn't nearly as bad as some make it out to be. Bloated but has some decent songs on it like Phenomenon and Down Another Day.

@@TheseBitchesWantNikesyeah but this album is pretty terrible
@@bow1543nope this band is terrible in my opinion
Hearing that cover of behind blue eyes made me ashamed of having blue eyes, and then promptly changed it to the Bruce Dickinson live cover to get that pile of durst out of my head
Brent Bowman late Australian rock vocalist Jon English did a pretty good cover look it up.
The thing that gets me about this album is that it's mostly sounds _really_ fucking boring from these snippets. At least their other songs like "Break Stuff" and "Rollin'" are so loud and dumb that I can enjoy them on a so bad it's good level. These songs are just putting me to sleep, yet Durst's singing voice is so awful that it's keeping me awake at the same time.
Yeah Limp Bizkit fans wouldn't enjoy it because the songs are too boring and monotone, and other people wouldn't like it because of Durst's terrible lyrics and bad rapping still being around.
Yeah, and while I may not like Limp Bizkit, I did find some campiness in "Rollin'".
This was just dull.
The song "Head for the Barricade" was also used in that terrible "Fight Club" videogame where Durst was an unlockable hidden character. (Yes that really happened. lol)
he was in 2 different wwe games too
Just bought it for six bucks on eBay. Thanks for the heads up.
I have a hypothesis.
Fred Durst continues to have an audience for the same reason we continue to have internet trolls: Because being angry is fun. It takes effort to maintain status as a functioning adult, watching everything we say and do in public lest we upset the delicate balance of civilized life. You make these videos, we watch these videos, Limp Bizkit makes "music", people buy and voraciously defend that "music", all for the same reason: So we can have the momentary satisfaction of lashing out. It doesn't even matter what we're angry about, just so we can get that adrenaline thrill of roaring as loud as we can. It's not healthy, but it's addictive in the long term and incredibly satisfying in the short term -- much like that crack addition you were joking about near the start of the review.
The other big factor is teenage angst. To be that age when we could say shit, get in trouble, and whine about how nobody liked us and life was so hard. Do that as an adult and everyone would think you were a freak. Do that as a kid and nobody cares because you're just a teenager. There is an allure to the notion of never having to grow up, and I think that's ultimately what this is all about -- reliving the glory days of being a teenager. Because even if it sucked in high school, there are some who may genuinely believe that life as an adult is even worse.
James Caldwell, I’m a teenager and I can’t wait to get out of this stage in my life. And be a productive member of society.
hear, hear, that directionless, unfocused anger. angst and blind rage.
What happened here? Almost nothing was worth listening to.
At least Chocolate Starfish had a few catchy songs to it, but most of this stuff was boring. I mean, I could find some catchiness in Head for the Barricade, but even that made me feel uncomfortable. Especially since I had an older brother who was a victim of a school shooting.
Ryan Tanner Sorry to hear about your loss. 😢
I own this album and all the albums by Limp Bizkit. They are a guilty pleasure for me, usually for the music. I agree 100% with the whining and terrible lyrics. What I say to people is I like Limp Bizkit in spite of Fred. While my musical tastes have shifted, hearing the music brings me back to that time.
I love Rocked Reviews! Keep it up and if you have any links up to your music I'd love to hear it!
jacksonesptama13
I like Limp for the most part, but Wes REALLY made it for me. Fred seemed cool when I was in high school, but so did Dahvie Vanity, so.
jacksonesptama13 surprised how many Limp Bizkit fans are respectful about their opinions

Seriously, fuck you Limp Bizkit.
+Devon Barker I sympathize.
Fred Durst: Give me the mic!
Matt Skiba: I will if you learn to behave.
You know why Limb Bizkit was GREAT METAL for its time? It hunted on the fears of parents of THAT TIME... late nineties... The scariest thing was a confident man with a hip appearance that wanted to fuck your 18 year old. In the same way 80's band exploited the SATANIC craze so did NU-METAL bands the fears of the late nineties. Don't hate, but yeah Limb Bizkit is product of its age and doesn't 'age' very well AT ALL. *puke*
Take it from a 31 year old that was 15 at the time... Those nu-metal brads we all hate so much now? Were the scariest thing a mother and father had to DEAL with at that time. Much love my metal brothers and sisters.
Ghostdialoog Most people still hated Limp Bizkit for being trash music at the time as well. If anything, people who listened to Limp Bizkit were some of the most picked on kids out there.
Nope. It was even awful for that time. Sure it was a bad time for rock and metal, but here was so many different bands at the time, many a lot better. There was Deftones, there was RATM, there was Tool, and I could go on, all of them thousand times better and more original than Limp Bizkit.
Good music does not age. There is a reason why people listen to music from 90's, 80's, 70's, 60's, and so on. There is a reason why people still listen to classical music.which is several centuries old.
Ghostdialoog
Ghostdialoog+There was worse music as far as parents were concerned.... Dimmur Borger, Anal Count, Slipknot, Hatebreed, Cradle of Filth, Marilyn Manson although Manson more rhythmic than the others, Anti Christ Superstar definitely scared my parents. I think some of Limp Bizkits songs are still relevant, obviously the ones 15 year old kids listen to. There's not a ton, 6 or 7 but my nieces and nephew listen to them, Sevendust, a lot of stuff, obviously slipknot, etc.
The problem I have with Results May Vary is how disjointed and unfocused this album was.
On one side, some of it is just Durst barking expletives on how misunderstood he is (or in Eat You Alive and Head For The Barricade's case, being a creepy stalker rapist or a violent psychopath, respectively) and on the other, is him feeling depressed and droning on and on about it.
And as for the Behind Blue Eyes cover, it has a decent hook to it but is hindered by the robotic "Speak and Say" in the middle.
Plus the fact that is came out around the same time as Linkin Park's Meteora, it really didn't look too good for Limp Bizkit.
Why have both rocked and rap critic gotten songs that stupidly reference columbine...
I wish I knew why artists feel the need to reference to it like that in the first place.
Rocked I guess that's what you sing about the king of the edge lords (or a boring rapper I guess :/)
Yeah. I just can't believe Limp Bizkit did that. And that other artists apparently do it too.
You can make reference to it and make it a topic in a song, you just need the neccessary talent, intelligence and finesse for it. Fred Durst doesn't have any of that.
***** Yeah, hear hear. Seriously.
Imo their ONLY good song is "Counterfeit". My fiance still loves Limp Bizkit & I've tried to make him see the light that it's only nostalgia that clouds his perception but I haven't won him over yet lol.
On the plus side, they did get Borland back after this, and The Unquestionable Truth was actually fantastic album. Easily the most genuinely angry thing the band has EVER done, and it tackled some real, social subject matter. And I love it! I still rock out to The Truth and The Priest especially, and those songs still make me want to wreck shit.
...It's a shame they never stuck with that (either that sound didn't sell well-which I don't know what they were expecting considering they dropped the album unannounced and without any radio play at all, or they got scared of being accused of ripping off RATM, or something). Once Fred got whatever was actually bothering him out of his system, they just went back to doing what they were doing in 2001. And it sucked.
Which highlights the problem with Limp Bizkit beyond Durst: an unwillingness to experiment with their sound. Yeah, everyone in the band except Durst is actually a pretty competent musician, but they've been repeating the same chunk-a-chunk riffs over the same breakbeats for the past 20 years, and every time it seems like they're going to do something new (a ballad that shows a little different side, like Boiler or Rearranged; a straight rap song like In 2gether Now, something with genuine rage and fire like The Unquestionable Truth), they abandon it to go right back to what works. And that's why they've been suffering the law of diminishing returns for the past 15 years! So many other nu-metal bands saw the writing on the wall around 2002 and 2003, when As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, and Killswitch first started getting big, and realized they had to do something. Linkin Park went stadium rock. Disturbed went more old-school hard rock/mainstream metal. Saliva embraced the more blues-rock side of their sound.Drowning Pool went more old-school as well. Korn said, "fuck it, we'll do what we want", and one can argue with the results all they want but hey at least they didn't stay stuck. Slipknot actually found the balance between unrelenting heaviness and pop acceptability that I think they completely failed at with Iowa (or as I call it, "Death Metal Backstreet Boys"). Deftones were always the most daring and experimental nu-metal band to begin with, so they just kept doing them and going wherever their muse takes them. Same thing with SOAD. If anything, they managed to get even more weird. Dez folded Coal Chamber and started DevilDriver, which very quickly went from nu-metal to just straight up New Wave of American Metal in like 1 album! Ill Nino went in more of an In Flames-lite direction.
About the only bands from that era that basically kept their sound and maintained there popularity if not got bigger, were Godsmack, Sevendust, and Incubus. And let's be honest...those bands were never really nu-metal to begin with. They were heavy-alternative bands, much more heavily influenced by grunge than by Coal Chamber or Korn. They just got labeled nu-metal because they came out in the late-90's, were heavy bands, and Brandon Boyd likes to rap every now and then (okay....those first like 2 albums, the ones no one ever bought and no one even remembers, were more nu-metal, but everything from Make Yourself on is decidedly NOT).
And then there's Limp Bizkit, who never jumped ship, never changed to suit the times, and is sitting around now wondering where the hell everyone went.
I think The Unquestionable Truth was only an EP.
"Results May Vary" sold more than any Motörhead album? Daaaaaaaaamn wtf is wrong with you, people!?
The girl from eat you alive is the actress who played the little girl in the movie Hocus Pocus
I made my 17 yr old listen to Limp Bizkit, in the car, during early morning rush hour. Sweet revenge.
You monster!
@@RockedNet my revenge on a weekend of cardi b poisoning, lol!
Cardi B is a disgusting insult to music and humanity.
This is coming from a 17 yo.
No wonder I’m not very popular...
I doubt I'll ever get this message out to Rocked, but here's he reason why Limp Bizkit fans still love the band.
OK, As someone who's not a hard working man (but also a clean guy cause I never did drugs or drank alcohol) with a very dull boring life with very slow process in life. I need someone to vent out my frustration for everything and envy for power and opportunity. Fred Durst in many ways represent ourselves. Losers. Who are mistreated, looked down, made fun of and a desire to rule the world like a god. And we all cry to ourselves when nothing plays out like we wanted.
The melodramatic whiny lyrics reflect on how we truly feel and the edgy, not tough "look how cool I am" kind of style has us wishing that we're like that in public. They love Limp Bizkit because they are sad pathetic losers who can't cut it in life and they listen to their music to convince themselves that they are "kewl" and that everything would be alright, if not vent it all out and root for Fred Durst to continue "speaking for the little guys" and not do a thing to change themselves into better people. Like a symbol. That the fans can believe that a "whiny uncool loser" can be successful. To fulfill their wishful thinking.
And when people like you come in and explain how bad their music is, it's like the harsh picture of reality coming down and hit them really hard like a wrecking ball. It really hurts to be reminded that we aren't doing well with are lives to achieve goals, let alone be happy with a selfish carefree fantasy we desire it to be real. Saying "Limp Bizkit suck because they are a horrible band" is like telling us they "we are lazy, we are obnoxious, we are idiots, etc" Fred Durst is the embodiment of every tempered, self centered, ruthless deadbeat human being that wishes more than what they had.
They have no good defense or points for the band because they themselves are bad. That's not to say every fan is like this, I personally enjoy their sound, beats and I don't have a problem with Durst's vocals. (though his lyrics REALLY could use work) And I'm sure there are plenty of Limp Bizkit fans out there who are better people then they were. With all the millennials being self important stuck up brats you could find on social media nowadays, you have to admit that Limp Bizkit had something that made them money and the reason why they were popular in the first place.
But hey, what do I know? I'm just a nobody.
I still like Limp Bizkit.Mainly for the nostalgia factor. I'd never say they were a 'good' band, per se
i’m pretty sure ‘eat you alive’ is about the denny’s stalker when he gets particularly aggressive.
Who’s liking so many of my comments?
Here's a fun story: My second rock album of all time was this one. I was 9 years old. Wanna know wich one was the third? St anger. Needless to say I was a kid and everything was the shit to me in that time without having any knowledge of music whatsoever. It was a few years later that I discovered master of puppets and realized everything I listened before that was crap. But gotta admit, even after all those years passed and so many other music genres in my life, I still love Korn and I think they're the shit.
To be honest sometimes simple is good. It doesn't always to have to technical or complicated to be good. I can sit down and enjoy a Rammstein album just as much as a Children of Bodom album. Even though Children of Bodom are a lot more proficient with their guitar work and solos. All depends on what you are in the mood for.
Korn is still awesome and they’re all very respectable.
Korn was good and has a lot of bangers. I dont fully get the hate for them, even as a guy that doesnt like 90s rock or nu-metal
half the audience who bought this album also felt so dur hur hur clever 'cause the booklet had Tyler Durden/Fight Club references
Thats another ginormous negative to this mess!
Apparently Fred Durst was a fan of Fight Club, He even showed up as an unlockable character in Fight Club (the video game).
Téa Gardner Fight Club is good movie (and a good book) though
Is it weird that... I like alien's antfarm cover of Smooth Criminal?
No, I think it's superior to the original version.
I like that song as well, I think it’s ok to like one hit wonders (i also like the movie song where they dressed up as Oompa Loompa’s, that was cool
Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes was in the Angry Birds movie. It's like puking on a pile of shit.
The band Clutch has a song called "Careful with that mic, wheezy" that is about Fred Durst. Check it out.
+Javier Gonzalez
Sounds interesting, I think I might check it out. Thanks for the suggestion.
I had to pause this several times and go listen to some gojira to restore my faith in music
27:40 And now, a quote from Roger Ebert to sum up this album in the same manner as Master of Disguise: "This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't even deserve to be in the same SENTENCE with barrels."
Watching the video: "come on it can't be that bad"
05:35
I am gonna cry
I've said this before
Limp bizkit would be fine if Fred wasnt in the band
Also I heard they might be releasing a new album soon
New album without Fred?
@@mattfreematt9843 if we're lucky, or maybe fred can write better lyrics and use less of a whiny voice
Limp Bizkit makes music for people who hold the spoon with their entire fist.
30:21
Nah, Faith No More’s cover of “Easy” (Like Sunday Morning) is way better than AAE’s cover of Smooth Criminal and Limp Bizkit’s cover of “Behind Blue Eyes” combined
Joey Roller that’s because it’s a good cover.
I like ONE song by LB. And that's "My Way." And I'm not sure if that's on Limp Bizkit, or Wrestlemania X-Seven.
And almost NONE of that had to do with Durst.
... Seriously though, I can really jam to My Way for some reason.
It's because of WM X7
Watching this on my iPhone, I put my hand behind the speaker in hopes the others in the area are judging me for listening to Limp Bizkit, but then assaulting myself with their music.
Which is worse- people's judgement on someone listening to Limp Bizkit or actually listening to Limp Bizket?... oh god
I'd take LB over anything pop related that's played on the radio these days though but that's just my opinion.
+Demon Rantz True, but I'd honestly much rather listen to Nickelback and Hinder over Limp Bizkit or Kid Rock.
15 years ago today, nu metal officially became spew metal.
Was this comment written on the 15th anniversary of the day RMV was released?
@@musicworld-dh4iq yes, it was
There was a much earlier example of how outclassed Durst is next to other singers, on Korns Follow The Leader, the song All In The Family. Jon Davis and Fred Durst basically have a little rap battle going on in there and good god did Durst lose that one.
Yeah, I didn't like this album either. It's painfully dull, even for a Nu metal album. And even then I've heard much better out of the genre.
What?? The AAF cover of Smooth Criminal was brilliant!
Phoenix Wright damn straight it was, reached Number one on the Australian charts in 2001.
Yeah same here. Was a huge hit!
Btw: Aussies are awesome! Much love from Germany bro
Phoenix Wright I’m from Australia too
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet but with them scrapping the Mike Smith tracks, a whole album had to be scrapped. Among those scrapped tracks was a track that they premiered in March called “Crack Addict”. Wrestling fans know this as the theme for WrestleMania XIX that year. The band, along with Mike and Head from Korn on guitars performed it live that night.
Their first 3 albums were atleast entertaining to listen to and had sick ass guitar riffs but Results May Vary has nothing to it that makes it entertaining.
Personally, I kinda like the smooth criminal cover. I don't think alien ant farm is a good band though, but it was quirky and fun so I'll give em that.
Omg. That “still tastes better than Fresca” line fucking killed me.
So years ago I was sick and someone brought me a 12 pack of Fresca. I tried one and hated it but I figured I’d leave the rest for someone else in the house to drink if they wanted them. The other 11 cans of that 12 pack sat in my garage for like 4 years before I finally gave up and just threw the rest away. NOBODY wanted to drink a Fresca! It’s such a dog shit drink! But ya, that’s why I laughed so damn hard at that. It just hit me personally in a way I was not prepared for...
I kinda want Todd in the Shadows to cover this album on TrainWreakers. Other then that I can't stand Fred Durst when I was 5 years old when this POS of a album came out. On top of that did Fred Durst's "Eat you alive" copied "bruises" by Unloco. Geez no wonder Durst can't rap or sing.
Now you've only got Dark Horse by Nickelback to do.
Austyn weezy Yeah Burn it to the Ground, Just to Get High, Gotta Be Somebody and If Today was your Last Day were ok actually.
The other songs were either forgettable or awful like Something in your Mouth and This Afternoon.
+darkrage6 No Fixed Address was way worse though that would make a good review.
***** I actually like their older work and I hated it.
+Austyn weezy They really need to go back to hard rock or post grunge.
Wes Borland is not the best thing about Limp Bizkit, it's their great rhythm section with Sam Rivers on bass and John Otto on the drums
Man, durst really dursted everything now....
Zoey Winchester ya that's what I said
Wait, is the chick in the "Eat You Alive" video the daughter from American Beauty?!?!
Indeed. Thora Birch.
The Unstable Nerd woooooow, guess she needed a paycheck?
If what they say about her dad costing her roles is true, then yes
This album has only 33/100 on Metacritic, I can see why.
+rmkw4291
Wow, now _that_ is just sad.
At least it didn't get a 15% (*cough* Kevin Federline's Playing With Fire *cough*)
You truly are heroic for doing not only this video but this whole series.Thank you for your service 🤘
Pfft, I hope you're just fishing for compliments with that "I know I'm not much to look at" line. Dude, you are so handsome.
+Rocked I am now officially using "Durst" as a Verb, to describe overgrown, insecure man-children.
You are truly a scholar my dear man!
Also, 27:53 had me DEAD!!
Don't you mean "Durst" should be used as an adjective?
I'll take it all, noun, verb, adjective. I did mean adjective so please excuse me for I am Dursting in my response.
(does stupid Durst pose with a red backwards hat on trying to look tough)
on urban dictionary, if Durst is there, the quote under the meaning should be "He did it for the nookie, he is such a durst."
Lmfao.,” back up and hit me again!”
Fred learned to rap as a little boy
Fred learned to crap as a lil boy
Now he still raps like a little boy
Craps his pants like a little boy.
YEEAAAHHHH!!!
Imagine if Nickelback tried to cover Behind Blue Eyes the same way Limp Bizkit did. Execpt the speak and say effect said C-H-A-D instead of L-I-M-P.
Nah they would’ve covered like how The Who originally performed it!
They probably would’ve done it fine. At least It’d probably be better than Limp Bizkit’s version. But not as good as the original version by The Who.
Results May Vary makes Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water look like The Dark Side of the Moon in comparison. Wow, I never thought I’d mention Limp Bizkit and Pink Floyd in the same sentence.
Well chocolate starfish was more average than bad. At least in my opinion
