Limp Bizkit To Reform

Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst has fuelled rumours that the band are about to reform by writing a cryptic message on the band's MySpace page.

After enjoying hits such as UK Number One single "Rollin'" and "Take A Look Around" at the turn of the decade, Limp Bizkit split up in 2006.

Since then, rumours that the band were planning a comeback have been widespread.

In a posting on MySpace.com, Durst seemingly confirmed that the band were on the verge of reuniting.

"Hello my dear family members. Yes, it has been a while. But a while worth the wait," he wrote. "It is getting very close to time to drop the Bizkit on the universe. I say this with the absolute best intentions and motivation.

"We, Limp Bizkit, are excited about the future for us and for you. LBF is the way. LBF is for life. Let's stir some shit up my friends."

Former guitarist Wes Borland is unlikely to join the band if they do reform. As previously reported on Nme.com, Borland joined Marilyn Manson's band in August 2008.

Thanks for the info to Nme.com.

+1, All the cool Limp Bizkit songs were cool because of Wes.

[Zao_89]

I never new they split up. I thought they were just looking for a new guitarist.

[xdan666x]

this would be cool!

[highwind5150]

I really don't think anyone cares anymore...I stopped listening after I bought the hot dog flavored album...

[thirdeye_15]

i agree wit highwind, i used to love em, but i have moved on to so many better things, just like Wes has hahhaha

[euan_soad]

Just what this world needs

[boomtank]

we need weeeees!

[Strato-Massacre]

is anyone REALLY going to give a hoot? or listen to them for that matter? they went out of style in '02.

[Admiral Petty]

You gotta be kidding me. Limp Bizkit sucked, they were a good example of all the worst aspects of Nu Metal. Not to mention the fact that Fred Durst is one of the most asinine and inept front men in recent history.

[Soundwash22]

Fred Durst is the "Tom Green" of music

[devinpalacios]

Wow. People actually care 'bout Bizkit?

[SMITH05]

Wes was amazing and I'll def give kudos to the rest of the band. They made decent enough songs that with a good vocalist/singer, could've been quite decent.I'll listen to it just to see how egotistically driven the band is by Fred Durst lol

[Korzack]

Someone needs the mortgage re-paying, eh?

[maiden_mexico]

limb bizkit is like nickleback without hits.

No, some people actually like Tom Green.

Checked

[Suav Nitebeest]

Yeah, Limp Bizkit might have been decent with an actual vocalist. But Wes still made the right decision by leaving and making good music; the other members need to do the same. Although for some reason I'm getting a disturbing image of Fred Durst coming out with an acoustic solo album. Ouch.

[MasterMaster!!]

Nooooo

[Abe Knuckleball]

I like them but not without Wes, he gives the band an extra something and the album without him wasn't anyting great.

[thsrayas]

NOOOOO!!!!!

[RonMexico]

Fred Durst is the "Barney Fife" of music

[reelbigfish2020]

if these guys want to make more music, they should, as should anyone. Freds been talking about this comeback forever now, what like 2 years? ill be surprised if anything actually happens, but, we'll see.

[vermilion444]

The rest of the original band is actually pretty good. It was Fred that brought them to that level of annoying. They had a cool, different sound when they hit but his whiny voice was like nails on a chalkboard.

[dpdogg]

although this its very doubtful that there will be any original members other than fred, im stoked. love the limp. it would be amazing is wes came back. black light burns sucked pretty bad. pretty sweet he's playing with manson now though. but i think if fred has his head in the right place, he could lay down some killer tunes again.

[Deflection]

They have a lot of cool songs, but Durst is still an idiot. Just ain't the same without Wes.

[highwind5150]

I mean seriously did anyone really like the unquestionable truth?? I bought it and was completely disappointed. And that usually doesn't happen to me but I've never been more disappointed in buying a CD than I did with that album.....okay maybe st. anger but that was better than the unquestionable truth. ;

[guitarist2893]

what a waste of time

[Ba11sINurFAC3]

I miss this band about as much as Polio.

[AEnima18]

i think the success of the reunion (if it does happen) depends on the replacement guitarist. If he's anywhere near as good as Wes then it might work.

But as much as I love the Bizkit, i can't help feeling that they just aren't relevant anymore and that a reunion would be pointless.

[Yoorai]

Hoooly sh*t. Excellent news

[MangeRamone]

GO SHRED DURST!

[emidog]

Nooooo! someone neds to stop this possible horrible event from happening.

[-[NiL]-]

The only thing I really liked about this band was their energy. If they can't at least recreate that, then there's no point in reforming the band, in my opinion.

[daniel coogan]

limp bizkit never broke up, there was picture of them in the studio in february, and they have a new guitarist anyway terry balsamo off evanescence....

limp bizkit wouldve been a good band if fred durst hadnt been in it.

[Tomo-J]

Fred sure is a jerk, but I don't care. As long as they make music I like, it's fine with me. There are a lot of bands out there whose members are *******s, but people listen to them anyway. And since this is a website about music, I would expect comments about music, not about whether someone in a band is a retard. But I guess I was wrong, huh?

[Lotz222]

everybody is lovin the Wes but in reality he wasn't that (or is) that good.

[Brendan.Clace]

Wes, in reality, wrote most of the best music for LB.... it would suck to see him not return....

[Cl4nK!]

I knowed yet. I'm very very very happy.

Oh, but I'm not so interested in Limp Bizkit, I think I liked one or two songs back in the day, but yeah they can go jerk off in a bin somewhere for all I care...
Wait, why did I read this article?

Okay , decent vocalist? Fred Durst was pretty damn good, as were all the guest musicians that they had in the first 2 albums.

Ever since Wes left, all he has done is shitty music, From First to Last, Black Light Burns, and now Marilyn Manson, all really awful bands. Oh and he did that tour stint with Japan X I think, which was shit as well. So your definition of "good music" is pretty far from it. Either that or your head is so up Sonny Moores ass that it's cutting off the oxygen to your brain.


Wes Borland will never top who he was in Limp Bizkit, never. He can never recreate those amazing nu metal riffs that he came out with, revolutionising the way you can tune and play your guitar (4 strings anyone?).

Yup, like me for instance. And I know Limp Bizkit was a pretty uncool band to listen to when I was in high school, but I still kinda liked 'em, especially the bass player and Wes (and the drummer wasn't that bad either).

But I always hated Fred. I hated his "sassy wigger" attitude and his poor vocal delivery (imagine a song like "My Way", only with a good singer...), whether he was rapping or singing. And he WRECKED "Thank You" by Led Zeppelin, right in front of Jimmy Page

But come to think of it, it wasn't all that bad that he was in that band because that way people would go "how do you mean you kinda like Limp Bizkit? They're so gay". And then I would go "sure, I hate their singer but there are worse bands around and if you pay close attention to the other bandmembers you'll notice that they're actually pretty good".

And then people would think of me as a really smart and objective person, so thanks Fred... I guess

[efferus]

The reason why LB worked is because of WES. As many others have said, it will never be the same without him.

[Shakalum]

wow. pretty much like every fred durst posting on myspace.

vague and untrue....

[Neonxenon]

They split up?

did not know that.....anyway, they are pretty damn aweful and none of us will hear any of their music unless you search for it. I'm not "flaming" them because its "cool" to hate them, I just think honestly think they suck. Even for Nu Metals standard. Doubt Borland would go back, he has a steady pay check as it is.

[J450N]

NOOOOO!

[HGF]

I was a fan of em, but I dont like them without wes. I think the problem is Durst.
Well, I read that Durst wants to become a family-comedy-films director, I think he will suck then too

[billruption26]

yeah, i think theyre gonna struggle with the fact that me and the rest of their old fanbase are now no longer in 5th grade and are in the midst of questioning whatever r musical taste was back then.

[metal_freak_cam]

it jus wont be the same but we never know...

[Dream Pin]

Limp Bizkit are my favourite worst band. They're so damn terrible, but there's something about them that makes them fun to listen to.
It's Wes, I swear. When Wes plays good shit in LB, he SERIOUSLY plays good shit.

[proswimmer89]

lol when I read the title from the main page, I was expecting UG to be f**king with us again by making the title sound like something we want to hear. Anyways hopefully they do get back together.

They are the band you hate to love, but can't help doing so.
And i hope this is true, would be better with Wes though

[southernsoulo]

The Bizkit is and always has been 'Limp'. in many ways Wes is Limp Bizkit itself,without him back then they wouldnt have had the recognition they did,but with out him now there is no way itll be the same ever and furthermore the guy sounds off like hes lost his will to create music...sadly enough or Limply enough ..to each his own and such.

Yip agreed. Fred is like Axl Rose, and Limp Bizkit are like Guns 'n Roses. Relevance is a key and I doubt either will find themselves fiting in with today's thriving metal/rock scene. Metal is in the best place it has been in a while and bands like Megadeth, Metallica, Machine Head and Slayer were able to make a comeback because people wanted thrash back. People dont want glam or nu metal back. (majority rules)

Fred is really bald now. Haha. (check his Wikipedia profile)

Despite all the complaints about metalcore, Id much prefer that to glam or nu metal.

I had no idea Durst was up to anything. Well this doesn't matter to me at all. I listened to Limp Bizkit when I was in Grade 8, back in '01/'02. Yeah, since then, I've developed a taste in music.

I never really liked Limp Bizkit, but I love Linkin Park. I dont know what it is, maybe because LP has an amazing vocalist and LB doesn't have anything too special.

Who cares when anyone was in or out or big at the time? If you like a band, you should like a band for their music and not because they have a radio single. When a band goes out of style the music doesn't change and your views on the band shouldn't either.

Wes Borland is a pretty sickass guitarist.

However, Limp have always sucked. I hope this doesn't come into fruition.

What about bands that people actually want to see get back together? Guns N' FUCKING Roses can't seem to get their collective shit together after a decade long enough for ONE SHOW, but hey, we can reunite the great Limp Bizkit! Jesus.

Wait, Guns N Roses? I remember one of their shows where Axl Rose was "taken ill" so Sebastian Bach filled in, meaning at that gig, there were no original members of Guns N Roses actually on stage. Great live performers, yeah...

Because you are writing so much about a band that you don't like. You even HATE Limp Bizkit! Why do you hate this band? If you don't like their music, it's all your choice! Noone got a problem with that! I'm sick and tired of hearing people like you saying that Limp Bizkit are forgotten, they're out of date. You say: "Wow. People actually care 'bout Bizkit?"
Yes! YOU care bout Limp Bizkit because you are writing here!!! If noone cares, why the comments here are more than 100 in one day??? YOU ALL CARE! And YOU ALL will listen to the new record! You are just afraid to say it because Limp Bizkit are "the biggest joke in Metal". The fact that you hate them proves that you care about them! So have a good listening when the new album comes out!

If Bizkit put a new album out, I hope it is at least semi-modern in sound and adapted to the resurgence of what they called "metal" in it's glory years. This means good riffs (not just open chords), some melody at least or solos, and some intelligent lyrics.

And I somehow doubt they will attempt the above, and as i am NOT looking forward to another rap-rock/ nu metal album, especially not from this decade, I am not gonna lose any sleep for this.

No, some people actually like Tom Green.

yeah, **** entitling people to their opinions!

[strat0blaster]

There is no Limp Bizkit without Wes Borland. He was pretty much that band's sound, and now he's gone on to better things. I love Limp Bizkit, and still listen to the first two albums, but move on already.

[strat0blaster]

And You got it wrong - Fred Durst is the Axl Rose of music.

[Underjoggle]

Does it have Wes Borland?
No?
Fuck that shit then.

[studwig]

This has to be the worst news I've heard all day!

[Sound Mind]

What's with the misleading titles?

[!SpastikChild!]

They need Wes or they'll never be the same...

[FiveStarMotel]

oh my god please Fred Durst, just stop! We already have enough shitty music.

The only thing I really know about Tom Green is that he was in Road Trip, and that was one of the few of those sorts of movies that I found genuinely funny. Anyways, on topic...I'm going to be interested to see how they're actually received now, in fact I bet that no-one is going to care anymore seeing as all the Bizkit fans have grown up and moved on and today's 13-16 year old kid looks more to MCR and Fall Out Boy than the dying breed that is the rap-metal band...

[acid eaters]

NOOOOO

[Bristlehead]

i thought Terry Balsamo was on guitar again..

Why couldn't it have been Insane Clown Posse?

[stevezy]

I was always kind of glad they broke up because I used to actually like them, and them being broken up made me forget I used to like them. Way to go and ruin everything Fred!

[reverseblade101]

that's wierd because i was listening to limp bizkit when i came on the site, and i see this, lol. it would be cool if they reformed but i doubt it'll be succesful. they havent made anything decent since hotdog flavored water.

axl rose is already in music dude.

[Mudvayne2427]

Sorta interested to see who they get for guitar, granted its not the same without Wes, but give them a chance. If Fred screws it up thats his problem not ours. I would pay to see them.

[TC1223]

Without Borland this is worthless

[IRFLAMZEZ]

I grew up...enough said

[boomtank]

hmm, didn't know so many people hated the LB. I really really really like 'm though, durst's lyrics are awesome!

[RUSTDOGG666]

Someone quick call up slipknot so they can put a stop to this now.

[iamadrummer]

i like a few songs. this doesn't excite me at all.

[Exxol]

of course everyone has a hate-on for LB, he tried something new on the last cd.. you know how people hate that

anyhow, i wish all the best for bizkit.. i spent alot of years listening to them when i was younger, and if they release some new stuff i'll have a look see.

[Benjibum]

Listen to Durst live, and then watch something with David Koch in it. Coincidence? I think not!

[Deece]

Meh. Don't reeally care. I used to like them, but i was about 12 or somthing.

[SOADriff]

ok im gunna go die now. i hate fred durst so much that i didnt even download "behind blue eyes" for my mum when she wanted it because i told her hes a faggot that killed a kid at the big day out. i hate him with a passion.

[mr staind]

wes is an idiot.he went on the band of this junky(manson)what to say;

[MonsterOfRock]

Fred Durst is a skidmark on the underpants of Music.

[skux]

his "gotee" looks like a vag. pfft fred...

[Riff King]

No Wes? What good is half a Bizkit?

[Perpetual Burn]

Wow, my 7th grade musical choice. Durst should retire for good.

[b-rock34]

I put this in the who cares file.

[jshwak]

I didn't know that they split-up either. I figured they were all still , Rolling, Rolling, Rolling,
and (ftw) they should just keep doing so!!

[Ibanez_K7-rockz]

A split?^^ thats new for me...
hope they will write great hitz again

Admit it. You people loved Limp Bizkit in junior high. They were the most badass thing in music. It's okay, I admit it, too.

Like it or not, Limp Bizkit sold over 35 million albums, which is 35 million more than most of you will ever sell.

yeah and who played the guitar on it? FUCKING WES BORLAND. Stop talking shit, have you ever heard black light burns cover album huh??? PURE SHIT

[nicksword87]

Wow. It's a love 'em or you hate 'em on this page isn't it. Me, love them. they were the first band album I ever bought. If it was any band i first got into I would be with the haters. but bizkit were just what i needed and the only thing i would listen to for about a year and a half. they developed my taste. but if not for them I may be an emo, wigga, or any other scum on the planet so thank you lb for making me who i am. Oh and when I say developed I mean going to (eventually) Between the buried and me. Check them out for REAL musicianship. Peace...In.

Nu-metal is long dead, Fred. Give it up already!

He's right metalhead and you know it, for a while Bizkit is all I heard anywhere I went, so don't be an arrogant douche bag, you wouldn't be commenting on this if you hadn't listened to them at one time or another.

[LinkinParkOakle]

I don't understand why people flame nu-metal when the nu-metal bands are the superior metal bands these days. Most nu-metal bands: Linkin Park, Slipknot, KoRn, Deftones, Mudvayne, System Of A Down, all make bigger news than any other metalcore or thrash band. Even look at the comment response to Limp Bizkit, still seem pretty relevant to me. Limp Bizkit is pretty mediocre music but guaranteed most of us used to love them, and I believe a tour would be cool. With all this flaming, bet 90% of you concert goers would go.

[Smithsc]

Dang! I thought we were rid of one of the worst bands in history! Not to mention one of the worst in an already horrible genre called nu-metal!

making bigger news doesnt make a band better. Im sure there are more idiot children in the world who listen to Fagout Boy and such other non talented riff recycling mediocre excuse for music bands, but that doesnt make them good in our eyes, especially seeing as how this is a site for guitarists, and quite frankly the last thing that comes to mind when I think of innovative and catchy guitar playing is garbage like this.

Also, yes we USED to love them, but that only takes it a step further. Limp Bizkit is becoming known as one of those childish bands which all the children listen to cus you know "swear words are so cool" and it gives them an excuse to swear. However its probably the largest case of "outgrown music" ever. I cant recall a person with any sort of musical knowledge once claiming that bands he liked included limp Bizkit. Its childrens music, like Ruffi or the Wiggles, but once you actually grow a pair, or start crapping blood, youll realize it was just a dumb phase in your life.

[heebblow101]

LIMB Bizket WHO?????

[jamstation]

Limp Bizkit was good.. once upon a time. It all fell apart after Hot Dog...
The music without Wes was pretty ordinary, and when Wes Borland returned for the unquestionable truth, it was unquestionably bad. I'm glad Wes has left.. His music after Limp Bizkit has only improved. Black Light Burns had an awesome debut album, and now that he's shown us all he can sing, he's moved on to better things. For the new Limp Bizkit to work, Sam Rivers and John Otto just HAVE to be there. They're great musicians.. it's a pity they have to play with Fred Durst.

[ShadesOfNight]

Wes Borland, in all fairness, is a ****ing IMMENSE guitarist, and good on him for wanting out of this shit band. Now he can show his skills fully, rather than the cliched, powerchord repetetive riffs of nu metal.
the rest of the band were crap, ignorant cocks, none more so than fred durst himself.
Seriously guys, give Black Light Burns a listen, then decided who you like more

[nicksword87]

Sam Rivers and John Otto are the most underrated musicians ever. Ottos work on significant other is brilliant because he gets into his beats unlike some drummers who just hammer out and don't get any feeling. and Rivers, Re-arranged has one of the best bass riffs i've ever heard. Fred is a jerk, yes, but he is a jerk that got these musicians on the map.

[cKygnardog]

are u ****ing kidding me limp bizkit was a revolution and would kick ass if they came back dont ever forget the anger and passion in the music live on LB

yeah i'm going to have to agree with this guy right now nu-metal is the shit all those bands he mentioned are very popular and why is everyone hating on LB don't sit there tell me that yall didn't buy any of thier albums or listened to any of thier music go kill your self if you deny it. LB is on Rolling Stone 30 greatest bands of all time so i guess thier doing somthing right. These guys were the shit in the day yes they have to adapt to whats now but they can do it. And for the last time, all you heavy metal listeners, quit judging other types of music, you listen to 1 type of music heavy metal..... that is why yall are one thing, one dimensional you listen to one genre of music. Don't get me wrong i like heavy metal from mushroom head, underoath, As I lay dying, Kill Switch Engage, Unearth, and Hatebreed, you see i'm versital not one diminsional. see yall on the other side peace.

[JD Blue Venom]

Ill give BLB a chance and wait for wes to refine the sound as it is a little unoriginal atm, but still good

as for Limp, Sam and John came out with some awsome work at least they werent doing blast beats and the same old same old, and i listen to children of bodom and arch enemy just incase u think of judging me from that comment
fred wasnt the problem, only in later years when fame got to his head, main problem was the fans but they brought it upon themselves with all the media hype, should have done a rage and not interview for years then they wud have been alright

daguy is right altho his language is a little hmmm

[etho190]

Limpbizkit rocked the cazbah bak in the day,, it will be good to see some new shit from em..
