silentbob i see fred durst everywhere in my town. driving low riding cars, red hat turned backwards, shaved head, angry expression plastered on with brightly colored sporty clothes 010518
...
cali j Poor guy! Angry...
Maybe he's angry because people stare at him and think they know him because of his music.
Everybody knowing who you are...and having your business told to the whole world...that would suck.
010523
...
nocturnal yeah, poor guy. it was totally involuntary for him to be known by the world. he was forced into fame. 010523
...
cali j FAME SUCKS!!!! 010523
...
The happy Fred Durst in an alternative universe I'm not signing that. keep your money, expensive cars and groupies, I'm just doing this for the love of good music. 010524
...
burden Limp Bizkit is an audible dearth of talent. I cry for all the wrong reasons when I hear them. The lyrics touch me, but they touch me in bad places. Power chords are great... in moderation. I'd love to hear Fred Durst handle a melody capably some time, but that's a total pipe dream. 010524
...
yummychuckle can go fuck themselves

my friend nick likes them however.

unhinged sucks limp dick

ooohh...yeah. i did say that out loud didn't i? fred durst thinks the world owes him. he's an ass. i found it particularly amusing when him and christina aguliera did that little ditty at the mtv video awards and just made eminem look like some kind of genius.
010607
...
Satan himself aaah

now THERE's an unholy trinity!

~~~cringes some more at the very though of those three entities in the same building and why the universe did not implode in some sort of "Big Suck" (as opposed to the "Big Bang" from which all known matter sprang forth - i was there for that one, it was cool)~~~~

children of the reagan era, each one of them...don't blame me, blame ron and nancy

unhinged it's kind of funny how she always looks like a cheap crack whore. 010608
...
dB Well, um, what can I say. Pimp Biscuit piss me off something chronic. It's a blatent marketing thing. I can't believe that music like that evolved by itself. I can't believe people like it. Same with Eminem. I mean, christ! what the fuck is happening in the music scene over there. America, wake up! 010609
...
cali j Please explain WHY you all dislike them soooo much. Have you REALLY taken the time to listen to ANY of their music. This music is far from pre-packaged tasteless run of the mill repetitive bubble gum. -----bad music(in my opinion and everyone has one...like well you know) I feel that in order to really dislike something you must have a valid reason(jumping on the bandwagon aside)Who cares if you have a personal dislike for a member of the band. Listen to the lyrics..listen to the music. There is some SERIOUS talent there otherwise they wouldn't have become so big. 010610
...
dB Look, I have listened to all their albums, a lot. There is some talent, I agree, their drummer is pretty good (really gets those off beats, classy). But you have to remember that this is "marketed" angst, and is not the real thing. Sure the lyrics are sometimes intelligent, but more often it seems that Durst is just trying to see how many times he can say "fuck" in one song.
I don't dislike the band as such, but more what they represent. A capitalist version of something that used to be an open form of art. It still is to some extent, but now it's very selective as to who succeeds and who does not. Limp Biscuit, Def Tones, Linkin Park, and most of those other bands are marketed well and backed up fully, solely because a record company says "shit! angst and swear words are in! CHING CHING!". The music itself does have a little credibility, but in the real worl of music it wouldn't stand on it's own for long if it wasn't for the people who fell for the marketing.


*Much Peace*

cali j Some very valid points. Business is business ..or shit happens In the music business everyone is a prostitute. I don't fall for marketing tactics.(period) I listen ...I hear! The true test for any musician is evolution. Let's see how they develope. 010611
...
Dafremen OK first off, I listen to these dipshits once in awhile. Yes some of their tunes are catchy after you've heard them on the radio for the 500th time, but let's get right down to it.

Who was the afficionado that called their music "intelligent" sometimes?
Apparently your definition of intelligence is subjective.
"Angst on parade" is more like it.
Occasional ballad to keep you twinkly eyed little fans poppin off about what "artistic geniuses" these guys are.

I suppose I shouldn't be too suprised that some of you bought right into this crap.
When you set a tiger trap, expect to catch tigers, set a rebellious moron trap and catch, well... catch rebellious morons.

Limp Bizkit releases a new album...the trap is set.
010611
...
dB Daffy, when I say intelligent, I mean I have listened to all their albums over and over again (I was running part of a music shop at the time and could not avoid it). Sometimes there is a line (not often) that by accident rather than design acoutly puts a valid point forward. I was not saying that it is generally articulate music, just that, sometimes, by mere coincidence I think, they actually manage to say something intelligable. 010611
...
Dafremen Good enough. Not only do I agree with you, but I feel that you may have had another inadvertent point as well which I will now explain as I understood it.

That point is that after much repetition one becomes unwittingly "attached" to a song. It grabs you on a subconscious level and next thing you know you're listening to it. I understand oh so well. See my son has a playstation and one thing that
Sega is infamous for are these catchy little dingleberry jingles to go along with their games. (ie Sonic Racing, Daytona Racing Etc) Usually accompanied by mindless Casio keyboard demo riffs these insidious tunes can find their way deep into the darkest recesses of a man's(or woman's) soul and lay there. Before you know it you find yourself tapping you foot, then humming, then next thing you know the line
"Gotta go super Sonic racing gunna spread my wings and fly
When I go super Sonic racing feels like I can touch the sky"
has profound implications for you and on the deeper, more meaningful side of the music that has you so entranced.

Oh I understand perfectly Db, and with that in mind , your "intelligent" comment might have been justified, if blatantly incorrect.

Get help man. There are recovery centers and treatment programs for this problem nationwide.
010611
...
dB So, am I to think that you feel I am sticking up for this kind of music/capitalism-in-a-jewel-case?

Now i'm offended.

Pythagorus What? It's pop for punks. He's "angry" cuz that sells records to kids. Limp-Bizkit is marketed and demographically aimed at kids too mature for rap music, but not quite aware of 'real music' yet. I agree some lyrics have a hint of depth and thought, but that all is discounted when you rhyme "nookie" with "cookie", and proceed to sell a zillion copies. Plus, they ruined a GREAT SONG by George Michael, "FAITH". So...yeah, of course they blow, suck and even re-swallow their own vomit.

I heard that Fred Durst was the Vice President of his record label. I cant confirm that anymore.

cali j Read the stance article on fred..period end of story! 010620

Photophobe Pythagoras,

How can doing a cover version of a song 'ruin' it?

Its not like they've erased the origonal release...

Plus, by George Michael releasing the song in the first place he was, in a sense, ruining it himself. If it was a successful song, (which would be what he was hoping for - otherwise nobody would hear it, and regarless of his motivation for release, it would have been pointless) then the masses would ruin the song themselves(by what seems to be your definition). The song becomes a part of venacular culture, and as such having a cover done of it is homage of the highest order.

If george Michael searched his motivations for releasing the song, I'm sure that, on any level, he'd be thrilled at the idea that a manufactured "punk" band covered his song.

Of course it would be better (more satifying?) to see a struggling garage band do a cover, but nobody is going to hear about that.

(except irate neighbours)



Also: rap as kids music?
Just because you don't appreciate a music form doesn't mean you have to put it down; rap has a lot going for it... Rythmically speaking, a lot of rap is much more complex than other music forms. Snoop is far stronger rhythmically than george michael.

I don't listen to much rap, personally, but don't see how you can justify putting it down to being for kids.

paste! Do what you like unless you like
gangbanging sheep. Sacks of blue bagels the moon is not on fire.
This time, screening the chickens for

rubella is a process highly dependent on the gloves one wears
and as a token of advertisement, pictures are allowed at the cost of

your dishes. My investors
are somewhere in Europe,
but don’t you ever worry about them, okay?

Door opens, Hannah walks in,
falls down and takes a bath close to the carpet. Before long,
she is under the carpet, chanting.

I wonder about voice in cramped postures and how the opera singers
do it, always booming their chests,
their necks arc back
to get the full range.
Professional singers have
the posture of knives.
Fetal belters never did so well.
I must take a shit.

The drapery can or may keep you company while I’m at the toilet,
but luckily, fiber is a good friend
so you won’t have too wait long.
See, I’m back already:
the villager speaks softest when outside his hut.

It’s the paradigm that’s breaking,
not your special tree.
And in other news,
a boysenberry is fucking up the Germans attempt at making solid rockn roll. While you’re at it, unscrew it.
There, good charlatan.

Come out, come out from under the carpet
my love coupon, my crouton necklace.
You mesmerize me with your pelvic limps.
I can’t see straight because you have
a tendency to do backflips in
the cafeteria. It’s implied you’ve

come back from the alleys
and the gardens and the bagelries
to grant me three wishes,
but you say I can’t have them
until tomorrow. In reply your malignant attitude, what I do in my spare time is all up to the doormat, how it pretends

not to think about my acts, my steps, how it shies away from responsibility like the knife not caring
what it’s going to chop next,
the germs not knowing
what they’re going to eat up,
and the sunbathers hogging the rays, arrrrr matey, that is ridiculous!

You’ll know if I’m joking if my pants are down and my ass is in your face. 010620
