It's all about the he said, she said bullshit.

Look, lyrically Limp Bizkit is dumb as living fuck... but they had some bangers and Wes Borland was an amazing guitarist who made a great solo album... which included a great song sort-of mocking Limp Bizkit style songs.

Sucks cause Limp Bizkit kinda tarnished the whole "nu-metal" genre that was pretty fuckin' diverse in the background. There was all kinds of different metal/rock-infused-with-other-styles being tried. Myself, I was a big industrial fan, like NIN/Stabbing Westward/Gravity Kills kinda stuff. I also love my Fear Factory.

I almost forgot about Fear Factory. Thanks for giving me something to jam to all weekend again!

To be fair, I will vouch for Dirty Rotten Bizkit being a great track. It's the closest Limp Bizkit came to emulating the success of Chocolate Starfish.

Wes Borland is so talented, it's Rick-diculous.41 yr old fan of LB since I was 15.
