  • This week we take a step into the warped and twisted mind of legendary guitarist Wes Borland! We talk all things Limp Bizkit - the beginnings in Jacksonville with Three Dollar Bill, Y'all, the MTV Spring Break performances, Woodstock ’99, the Australia incident, Wes’ time away from the band, the upcoming tour dates, and an update on the elusive Stampede of the Disco Elephants record.
    We also take a deep dive into all of Wes’ side projects. Get the full story behind the creation of GOATSLAYER, how much music they really have recorded, why you’ll probably never hear some of it, and how that project eventually evolved into Big Dumb Face. Wes also opens up about how his ego led him to create Eat The Day, and why even a producer from Pink Floyd’s The Wall couldn’t get that project off of the ground (hint: it has something to do with trying out over 150 singers…)
    Plus find out about the ghost in Wes’ old house, why he didn’t feel like a part of the metal community, debunking the “shade” against Avenged Sevenfold & the Deathbat comic, what the hell a white trash mimosa is, the inspiration behind Wes’ stage personas & outfits, how the Space Zebra show came to be, a great (or not-so-great) Courtney Love story, the worst guitar tech ever, plus so much more you’ll need a nice warm glass of hot dog flavored water to wash this episode down!

    It’s so bizarre seeing Wes look like a normal guy after nearly 25 years of seeing him with crazy stage costumes over the years.

    For me, Wes was the sound I was drawn to in limo bizkit. Simple yes but that’s not bad. He did it well. He would go hard then transition to some ambient spacey sounds. I loved it.

    So cool how this humble history teacher creates the most amazing riffs and has the most incredible guitar tone.

    The nu metal era had some really good and underated guitarrists, like Wes, Stephen Carpenter, Daron Malakian and Jim Root.

    I am 48 years old Korean man and a big fan of rock music. My favourite rock guitarlist is Wes. I wish he reads my comment.

    Wes is such a class act and a riff master.

    I loved the bit at the end about pulling people up on stage one of my favorite concert experiences was when I saw CKY in Scranton. The lead singer was having throat issues that night and rather than cancel they pulled people up from the crowd the whole night and had them sing everything. It was one of the most "punk rock" things I've seen. The whole crowd loved it they even played some songs they never did live.

    It's nice to see a good guitarist evolve into a great dude not losing perspective in it all.

    Me: This version of Wes Borland is WAY too normal.

    Am I the only one interested in how much Wes actually creates these elaborate costumes himself?
