The Bizkit Iz Back!

thats gotta be the worlds worst combination of douchebags ever. throw in staind and there u go.

bad rappers backed by mediocre "metal" bands...can't say i'm a fan, but they made a name and identity for themselves so credit to them for that
 
its all image, and what mtv did for them.

very true, but i personally wouldn't pass up a similar opportunity unless it was exceedingly ridiculous...and i'd like to think i'd pull it off without getting tagged as a massive douchebag, but that's just me :D

haha yeah i hear where you're coming from. to sell out and be rich or not sell out and possibly be average.

the artist's conundrum.

metallica?

oh barf.

you know, i wouldnt hate on them as much as i do now if they didnt whine about people downloading their music. i mean, they paired up with brittany spears and cried about it. they have more money than god and they have the gall to complain?

yeah, that's really fucking metal, guys. :rolleyes:

i always get a kick out of people who bitch about bands selling out cause i know that 99.9% of them would do the exact same thing given the opportunity, that'd be like turning down your boss on a raise :1orglaugh

now, reaching fame and fortune and forgetting where you came from...that's worthy of discontent

haha yeah, its the old carrot in front of your face. some of my favourite bands were so against selling out they never made a dime by the time they died, broke up, whatever. see: the ramones. (the only album that even went to shitty ass gold was the greatest hits album which was after most of em were all dead and gone.)

Metallica sadly quit being metal long ago and even proclaimed "metal is dead" during some MTV (i think) awards show. Sad, but I still love their first 3 albums.

holy ear fucking jehovah's witness that is atrocious, far worse than anything they used to put out...that guitar "riff" in the first link is possibly the most sloppy, out of time thing i've ever heard from a professional recording "artist" it sounds very reminiscent of the shit i came up with when i was 14 and learning to play the guitar, the second "riff" was marginally better, the drums were very amateur and sketchy...the only redeeming factor for me was, amazingly, the lyrics which had a couple instances of showing promise that were quickly shot down by mr. fred throwing his flair into the mix...

not bashing you killtheindustry, i'm just saying that as a musician that was torturous to my ears :(
 

Shifty

O.G.
Then this is typical Limp Bizkit, IMO. Mediocre (because of Fred) mixed with awesome.


Hi KTI, I love the guitar throughout the song. The harmonics/divebombs in the chorus are stellar IMO.

Also, the bridge (@ 2:30) is heavy and awesome!

Death, maybe just listen a few more times. The riffs (in Bring It Back) are played that way deliberately - it's not poor musicianship. The timing changes before the drums come in. And the Slayer riff is spot on - down to the tone!

Also, you may like the new song "Douchebag":



Apologies - this is the only version I could find on youtube that contains the whole song - some of the lyrics are wrong. Anyway, the song features great guitar throughout. The main riff is wild! And check out the prechorus (0:46) - a throw back to Maiden & Priest! :yesyes:
