How Limp Bizkit Took Over The World (Ft. Daggz)

[@quentinbringthenumetalchil5125]

It’s crazy to think how on top of the world Limp Bizkit was back then. It, honestly, feels like a fever dream. A band that’s heavier than the average rock band would be all over MTV and the radio.

[@scottsutton706]

Looks like they're on the way to be back on top of the world. The narrative has changed. a lot of kids that weren't even born when when they came out have fallen in love them

[@JamesRandle]

@@scottsutton70617 years old, introduced to lb by my mum and are now my favourite band of all time listened to every album and have half of them physical. rock the classic red yankee hat everywhere i go 🤘. obsessed

[@danieldemayo6209]

Right? They had an album release on MTV at Playboy Mansion lol. Personally that’s when it ended for me though :(

[@feiticeirafatale561]

You forgot ones begore them - Nirvana. Formula is basically the same - lot of angst but also radio-friendly, catchy choruses. Limp Bizkit still hold on and will keep it a record of fastest selling rock album - over million in a first week. It was wonderful time.

[@ThatOneGuy7550]

One hour Limp Bizkit retrospective?! We are so back

[@graymads]

😎

[@BrasilianFury]

"My Way" will always be an all-time classic for me, just on the basis that it was also the song choice for a certain music video between Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock back in 2001 before their big clash at WrestleMania X7. What an absolute time it was to see their rise in those late 90's-early 2000's...

[@mgofficial5470]

And he preformed at wrestlemania

[@jackreacher6758]

I’m a little older than Fred, but their music and nu metal of that era, when I hear it now, is like a shot of youthful energy. There is alway something in life that pisses one off and this music is cathartic.

[@Mav3rick888]

Cathartic is the perfect adjective to describe how this band makes me feel.

[@Philosophase]

It’s wild how listening to them during the 2010s was seen as “guilty pleasure music” and now the genre is coming back.

[@lexidarling]

Yeah, definitely. When my metalcore band covered Break Stuff back in 2010 we kind of had to pass it off as an ironic joke, like "haha check out this dated 90s song, can't believe that was popular, kinda bangs though". And now almost everyone in the online rock/heavy music sphere gives LB their due cred, even if begrudgingly for some.

[@mgofficial5470]

People forget they dropped a album in 2011

[@black0ps0]

some of Fred's controversies being calling out scott stapp for being an asshole & supporting napster in hindsight really makes me think critics went searching for a reason to hate him cause they hated the music

[@xLimito]

Saw them live a few weeks back, I'm a massive fan and it was crazy good. So much energy, the whole place was a moshpit. Fred pointed right at me aswell at one point lol. Sick video!

[@kingdombeats618]

Just seen them in Rocklahoma! They were amazing

[@lexidarling]

Limp Bizkit are one of my favorite bands, maybe even my favorite for a while. I was there for the summer of the Nookie. I remember the immense hype for Chocolate Starfish. I wore out my Family Values '98 VHS. I've seen them live twice. And I never stopped repping them either. My metalcore band in college covered Break Stuff at a Halloween show. Viva La Bizkit.

[@avnerressel7907]

One of the best Limp Bizkit breakdowns i've ever seen. such a phenomenal band, each one of the members is incredibly talented. including Fred who got way too much hate. they will forever be my favorites. amazing work dude.

[@graymads]

Thank you so much!

[@feiticeirafatale561]

Fred Durst is my alter ego at this point, even though Wes Borland influenced me to pick a guitar. You cannot remove a single member of this band and to think you can make something better, Wes tried that few times, as he himself confesed, thinking he was better without them. Failed each time.

[@crazypizzaman21]

Chocolate starfish was the first CD I got as a kid. Always loved them, a hilarious band that just wanted to have fun and made a lot of genuine songs sprinkled throughout.

[@NGU7754]

I like Limp Bizkit, I don't care what people say.

[@GreatBeardofWisdom]

My partner and I have seen Bizkit twice this year. They're my all-time favourite band, and I'm pretty sure they're hers too. Got so much love for these boys. Big props for this video. The band isn't perfect, far from it, and I appreciate the criticisms mentioned. But yeah, they've got me through some serious shit in life, and I'd be lost without them.

[@DukeBluedevil70]

How many times has she gone with her boyfriend?

[@GreatBeardofWisdom]

​@@DukeBluedevil70More times than she'd go with you.

[@Ram-Rod-Please]

They are pretty awesome tbh. I love the in your face style they had. They also prove In life you be who you are no matter what anyone says

[@stepheng1523]

3 dollar bill was right up there with Korn for me when I was in high school. Pollution/counterfeit was a hell of a way to open a record

[@Ram-Rod-Please]

Omg yes.

[@blackheart7261]

Never was a fan of Limp Bizkit (and really any rap based band in this era) even though i pretty much grew up on nu metal. But i cant deny that they really left big impact in the industry and they had some mad talent, even Fred.

[@blackheart7261]

Also hope we get a Deftones vid from you someday 🤞

[@voidvisual]

It's not limp bizkit related but suicide silence in the early years of deathcore also got the same type of ridicule from the same press that killed off nu metal. I think they were just power tripping and wanted to shut down anything and everything they didn't like.

[@graymads]

Yea, I remeber when that happened. It was the same attitude that Nu Metal had where because it was different and pulled from a culture outside of traditional metal it was seen as lame and not worthy of anyones time.

[@spookymarirev]

[@FourBetween]

[@carlzombie6722]

Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog Flavored Water is a classic! I was 10 years old when it dropped. Appreciate the documentary Mads🙏🖤💯💯💯♠️

[@bigboyemotheescamo78]

my dad introduced me to their stuff. he introduced me to most of the stuff i listen to. nirvana, korn, alice in chains, green day, mayhem, slayer metallica, soundgarden. all kinds of stuff. if its rock and i listen to it, its because my dad showed it to me. i was born in 2005, so i missed out on the "nu metal craze" as i call it. i was mostly around for the post hardcore emo era and the soundcloud rap era as far as alternative music goes. but i grew up listening to everything. i even listen to some beethoven here and there. my tastes are that varied. limp bizkit isnt one of my favorites by any means. out of nu metal, my favorite is probably either korn, slipknot, or maybe rage against the machine. but i definitely do like limp bizkits discography, which is pretty unpopular as far as music opinions go. their music influenced a lot of future bands and somewhat fostered a sound of youthful rebellion not unlike punk rock did in the 60s and 70s. as someone who considers themself a sorta modern age punk, i respect rebellious attitude in music, as long as the music itself is more rebellious and isnt literal pop *cough* blink 182 *cough cough* lana del rey.

[@real30yearoldboomerhours53]

Never stopped loving Limp Bizkit. Granted I was only a kid when they were at their peak but I remember hearing their songs on the radio and liking them. In middle school I picked up their albums for cheap at a local record store and really vibed with them. Even as I got into heavier stuff like metalcore and deathcore in high school, I’d still rock out to them. Fun music and I’m way hyped to see them at Aftershock next month. Their new album and Gold Cobra had some good moments too.

[@avastaley3379]

I love these guys. I’m 37 now and they were one of my favourites as a kid. People just love to hate.😂

[@1989TaylorsVersiom]

Same same here. Same age so we were at the tail end of this and when i started going to concerts at 17 it was my dream to see limp and korn. I was able to see korn at hard rock Orlando and i still dream of Limp Bizkit. hopefully one day. By time i graduated it was emo, taking back Sunday, Hawthorne heights, story of the year and so on.... I got to see hundreds of bands and I'll never forget that time! 🫶💙🫶💙🫶

[@noisehippo1561]

Just saw them live two weeks ago, still love them even Fred is very calm on stage nowadays.

[@nini-he8uy]

this band and fred are truly better than me, the hate they faced could’ve literally ended another celebrity’s life, the fact they still pushed and made music they’re passionate about is unlike anything else

[@zozoartstudio4727]

Haters hate. They rocked. Just look at those crowds rumbling. They brought that sh*t like Amazon.

[@zefonfon]

Great breakdown on the unquestionable truth man. Very underrated record. They also released a mini film during this era mocking spiritual cult leaders. It’s on vice’s KZbin channel. It’s pretty good

Its easy to over look it for just being egotistical. But I have always like the sarcastic nature of the band.

Limp Bizkit and alot of nu metal or grunge from the 90s-early 2000s is so nostalgic to me because my mom loves alot of those bands and I heard them playing in her car alot on the way to school

Saw them live a week ago at the front row and it was one of the most cathartic live experiences of my life. No one does it like them. It was a real honour to finally be able to rock out with these legends that clearly defined my childhood. The one, the only ; LIMP BIZKIT

[@ondreibazant-fabre2164]

Their last track from their first album, 'Everything', encapsulates their music potential. The limp bizkit shifts from a satire act to taking themselves seriously, as they should (had?)...

[@elijahtrey]

My mom used to have the 3 dollar bill ya’ll album when I was a kid and that’s how I discovered them lol

[@paulb808]

Great video. I remember seeing Nookie on MTV for the first time, iconic stuff.

[@BlackHe4rtQueen]

What a throwback. I remember here in Europe, in early 2000's, the music scenes were so gatekeep-y, and Limp Bizkit blended metal and hip hop, the complete arch enemies, it was like mixing gasoline with water. The hip hoppers hated them, the metalheads hated them, so who the hell liked them? 20 years later I can read the comments here and see that everybody enjoyed them, they just didn't say in public.

[@jacksonfromonline]

love how you chose jungle and garage etc for the background music. all my special interests at once

The first 3 albums are just genius. Everyone in the world of metal has a guilty pleasure, and it's always LB. Unquestionable Truth is wicked as well. Sick riffs and very heavy on that EP. Seen them live 4 times over the years and first got into them in 97, and then really into them in 98 via Family Values and Kerrang.

[@GunDrummer]

[@lurkerna9013]

My parents bought me Significant Other for the singles but my life actually changed when I heard N 2Gether Now. DJ Premier production, a Method Man feature and Fred actually rapping pretty damn well makes that genuinely one of the best rap/rock crossovers to ever exist. Wish it woulda got some spotlight in the video.

[@Persuasions]

[@freddylimpster7137]

awesome retrospective! as a fellow LB fan since 2001 i appreciated the depth and detail to every single era of the band. i only disagree about RMV. it features some of John and Sam best work and I appreciated the more mellow and introspective numbers like Underneath The Gun, Build A Bridge and Lonely World. looking forward to the video covering the 2009-2023 years! the nu metal is seeing a resurgence and i am definitely along for the ride!

[@Falxifer95]

One thing that still mesmerizes me to this day about Limp Bizkit, is how despite how much backlash and guff they got, they're actually well adjusted decent guys, and the worst thing that can be said about Durst is that he was a dick with bad attitude, they're not abhorrent and hypocritical degenerates like Kid Rock, or pathetic pissbaby boomers with psychopathic tendencies like Aaron Lewis.

[@billanddougsuck]

Right?! One thing thats always bothered me with the haters is the way they talk about Fred in a sort of present day/past tense. Like they're all literally living 20 years in the past. They always say the same old bullshit a hater would've said in 2003 and i've always felt like they seem to have forgotten that 20 years have passed and if they'd actually bother to youtube an interview from Fred from any time over the past 10 years they'd come to realise how wrong they are.

[@Creatic58]

@@graymads Can't wait to see it. I found this video right as I made myself a bucket of popcorn and got a drink you couldn't have uploaded it at a better time Unrelated question but, do you think Nu metal is a subgenre? I've always believed that Nu metal isn't a subgenre and rather an era of metal instead. Being a subgenre means that bands that you are compared to within that supposed subgenre sound relatively similar to you. This isn't the case with Nu metal If you pick out any two nu metal albums it can be proven pretty quickly that they often sound nothing alike e.g - Korn life is peachy and Limp Bizkit chocolate starfish However, I do believe these albums and songs can still be lumped under the nu metal umbrella. Not as a subgenre, but rather an era Many people say that the defining trait of nu metal was DJs, turntables and rapping, despite many nu metal bands not having any of these There is no defining trait of nu metal. Because nu metal was the "new wave" of metal music Inside of this wave was meant to be all sorts of different types of metal emerging from a single wave (think of a hurricane, in hurricanes during waves you can get many objects being thrown at you) Nu metal was an era of music that encouraged experimentation more than ever in metal musics history

Great video! It was really interest and see a different perspective on Limp Bizkit's music. I learned a lot. I generally don't like Limp Bizkit and I think most of their music sucks, but I do really like some of their music. 3 Dollar Bill Yall$ is honestly a really solid record and my favorite from the band because of how raw it is. "Everything" is the band's best song imo. I also like Still Sucks because it's a short and sweet album. Everything else in between? Eh, there are some good songs here and there, but I at least appreciate the band for what they are. I would totally see 'em live if I got the chance though. That would be a lotta fun.
