bunch of album tracks on Chocolate Starfish, in addition to the lol value from Durst's lyrics, have real solid grooves on the verses. was surprised after I wrote group off for the longest time as crappy notrealmusic I only liked cuz it was "cool" in middle school

I was 15 when Rollin came out and everyone I knew agreed that LB had bceome teenbopper bull$#!t., and that Fred had turned into a clown. We would've all laughed in the face of anyone who suggested it was better than Break Stuff.

I know it's a boring choice (what with it being the critical favorite: http://robertchristgau.com/xg/pnj/pjres99.php) but going with "Nookie". Lotta contenders for the silver medal, though.

I have a confession to make... once I realized what "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water" meant I couldn't listen to the album anymore. I didn't realize the meaning was so GROSS. LOL. Sorry... I know this makes me seem weird...

It's all about the he said she said POLLshit - Limp Bizkit Singles
would have been kinda interested in a version with "gold cobra" i guess, that song isn't exactly good but it's soooo much better than any of their other post-heyday singles. That one from last year with Lil Wayne was just O_o, "GO FUCK YOURSELF!" notwithstanding.

my local hard rock station STILL plays the Bizkit version of "Behind Blue Eyes" semi-regularly. recently i heard someone call in and request the song, and the DJ asked "The Who's version?" because they probably get just as many calls for the LB one.

The only non-covers I remember from this list are "Nookie", "Rollin'", and "Break Stuff". I listened to them today. Imo, the latter two are just embarrassing but "Nookie" actually sounds convincingly cold and desperate now.

I have obviously spent a lot of time with Silvera's drumming on the first two Korn albums and while he wasn't the most graceful or effortless drummer, he was really inventive and came up with a lot of little tricks that I've been using for years. This thing grooves and the fills around 0:25 and 0:40 are totally weird.

Brad, otm.
Eat You Alive is probably the one that left the biggest impression on me, though that impression has changed over the years from surprise, to cringe, to now hilarious, and would probably be the one I would do at karaoke, which is a big factor in how I judge song quality. That being said, I gotta go with Rollin' since I requested it at a one of the in school dances in 6th grade.

On October 6, 2018, Shaggy 2 Dope from hip hop duo Insane Clown Posse attempted to dropkick Durst during a performance of the song "Faith". DJ Lethal from Limp Bizkit responded on Instagram Live calling Shaggy a "clout chaser".[63]

I kind of empathize for Durst. Dude seems like an earnest dorkus who just wants to bang models and play caveman riffs and listen to the Smiths but turned himself into music's whipping boy, perhaps as a defense mechanism, perhaps because he's not clever enough to turn himself into a 50 Cent-style heel, perhaps because he's not confident/rich enough to be an ICP-style "we're gonna do our thing regardless." He's worked with Pauly Shore and Corey Feldman and John Travolta, all of whom kind of have the same vibe of like fairly talented guys who clearly love their medium but don't really have the same artistic insight that drives their peers

“N 2 Gether Now” is the closest thing to cred this album has.
I’m also partial to the bassline in “rearrenged”, that’s a good one.
Fred Durst is awful throughout though
