Limp Bizkit: Band
built 118 days ago
Now overall, Limp Bizkit is a group that is meant to be played loud and prefferably in a residential area. When they stick to this formula of music, you like the CD. It's when they try and be something they are not, like a ballad band, that they fail. And they fail miserably. It's not that they can't do it. It's that they are so much better just sticking to the loud and angst-ridden music they are known for.

Limp Bizkit's DJ Lethal told LAUNCH that he hopes people will see that Borland's departure wasn't a crippling blow for the band. "You know, everybody thinks Wes Borland came in there and all of a sudden we had, you know, 'Nookie,' 'Rollin',' and all these songs, when it was really, you know...it's not," Lethal said. "He didn't just come into a room with all these amazing riffs and blast 'em out and go, 'Hey guys, listen to all these phat tracks.' It was everybody tailoring and molding."
