Free Music Review: Da Bizkit, yo.
Hit: 3 Stars
Wow. 1,410 reviews. Say what you will about Limp Bizkit, but one thing appears certain - for those who were around at the time, everyone had an opinion about this band.
The early nineties' mainstream rock scene was all about semi-depressing angsty hard rock (grunge). The late nineties was all about angsty hard rock, but with a little less emphasis on introspection. Hey, at least Korn tried sometimes.
My initial rating for this album was two stars, but I decided to give it a 2.5, which rounds it up to three. Why? I never thought Limp Bizkit were all THAT bad. Cast aside Fred Durst for a minute and you've got yourself a tight band who know how to play a catchy instrumental hook. In the maligned world of nu-metal, Limp Bizkit were certainly the poppiest, which certainly didn't help their credibility at the time. For the true mainstream alt. rocker (oxymoron?), they were a joke. Little Timmy's "first metal band." Limp Bizkit was to metal as Blink-182 was to punk rock. Plus, LB incorporated elements of hip hop, which is the kiss of death for any veteran metalhead.
And then there's Fred Durst, probably the most hated frontman in the history of rock and roll. An annoying, gigantic egomaniac without the chops to back it up; think Axl Rose, only without the talent. An MTV whore. A guy who paid radio stations to play his songs. A poser. A child trapped in a man's body. A big, fat, stinking idiot who couldn't write a decent lyric if his career depended on it (obvious at this point).
Those are the cons. The pros? He knew how to construct a decent vocal melody. Limp Bizkit were all about hooks and Fred Durst delivered in this respect. Too bad the lyrics are so stupid.
1999 served as a pretty divisive year for pop culture. The Matrix came out and unfortunately influenced countless crappy action movies, the boy band/teen pop thing was in full swing and, you know, nu-metal was radio's primo pick as far as loud guitar music went. Some better albums than Significant Other from 1999:
Fantomas - Fantomas
Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers
There Is Nothing Left To Lose - Foo Fighters
The Battle Of Los Angeles - Rage Against The Machine
California - Mr. Bungle
The Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips
Euphoria Morning - Chris Cornell
The Fragile - Nine Inch Nails
Make Yourself - Incubus
No. 4 - Stone Temple Pilots
When The Pawn... - Fiona Apple
Issues - Korn
Not a great year. Limp Bizkit didn't exactly make it any better, but, hey, catchy is catchy. Average teenage party angst album with some sweet hooks. Not highly recommended or anything, but it's better than Hinder.
Significant Other Poster
Florida-bred metal-rappers Limp Bizkit sold a million-plus records of their debut largely on the strength of a George Michael cover song. But the band indeed had "Faith" and the group's second outing proves that the Bizkit have the goods. Still, it seems as if boastful frontman Fred Durst is loading the band's deck again, this time by including scads of guest vocalists, such as Stone Temple Pilots' singer Scott Weiland, Method Man from Wu-Tang Clan, and Korn's Jonathan Davis. (In fact, Korn gave Limp Bizkit a leg up in the industry.) But the 16 diverse yet cohesive tracks on Significant Other don't need any help. Not as heavy as their mentors Korn--or as they are on their debut--Bizkit give Everlast a run for his money on the tuneful and appealing "Rearranged." "Just Like This" is another winning hip-hop and rock entry, while the amusing and memorable "Nookie" (as in "I did it all for the nookie") has self-deprecating lyrics not unlike the Offspring's "Self-Esteem." Bizkit segues with ease from pleasing rock and hip-hop amalgam to spooky Tool territory on "Don't Go Off Wandering" to moshable moments in the entreaty "Show Me What You Got." Significant Other may be hard to categorize, but it's easy to like. --Katherine TurmanAlternative Rock Music CDs
