Digging up my old Limp Bizkit albums (Chocolate Starfish and Significant Other) I'm amazed as how much better they are over what everybody says they are.
Basically, eveyrbody puts them down as much as they do the BSB or N'Sync. Overall, though, they have some good stuff - better than Linkin Park. Re-Arranged, Boiler, Take a Look Around, My Way.. are really multilayered songs - lasting 5 minutes or longer (except My Way: 4.5 minutes)- something unheard of these days in punk. Sure I don't like most of his hip-hop/rock stuff, but the more rock-influenced tracks aren't bad.
*zips up flame-suit*
Disclaimer: I have very varied tastes, I like most jazz, classic rock, classical, and old hip hop, so don't label me as a nu-metal fan or anything. This is just an old album that I dug up while cleaning up my room.
Edit: I don't like Fred Durst's attitude much either, but he has some good artistic direction (some cool music videos). Loved Wes Borland - too bad he quit.
