michael Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 http://www.nme.com/news/limp-bizkit/42710 Limp Bizkit have announced that they are reforming with the original band line-up for the first time in eight years. Fred Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto and DJ Lethal have joined forces once again to tour and record a new album. Guitarist Borland, who left the band in 2001 and returned briefly only to leave again in 2006, has apparently resolved differences with his bandmates. "We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other," Durst and Borland said in a joint statement. "Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else. This is why Limp Bizkit is back." Limp Bizkit will kick off a world tour in the spring, hitting the European festival circuit. They will also play their first-ever shows in Russia. Tour dates will soon be announced on the band's new website Limpbizkit.com. They also intend to begin recording a new album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I was just about to post this, but with the title "Bad News for Music Lovers" Limp Bizkit will kick off a world tour in the spring, hitting the European festival circuit. Start collecting those bottles of piss, people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 "We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other," Durst and Borland said in a joint statement..In other words - "We've run out of money."

chris2o2 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 They were good back then but music evolved and changed and unless they change their style and sound i cant see them doing much . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 They were good back then but I was on glue and would have danced to a car alarm. Is that what you meant to say? Limp Wrizted were never good. By any stretch of the imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin1982 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm buying some eggs now and keeping them in the airing cupboard so they'll be nice and fresh for when they take to the stage! On another note! WHITESNAKE - Bring on the hair metal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I've heard rumours that ZZtop, Whitesnake and Def Leppard are playing Download, too. WTF, have we gone back to 1986 and no-one told me? Already confirmed are SLIPKNOT, THE PRODIGY, MÖTLEY CRÜE, KORN, PENDULUM, DRAGONFORCE and DEVILDRIVER. Slipknot are the only band worth going to see. The Crue could be good, not seen them since '91. Dragonforce suck live, Pendulum just suck full stop and I don't like Prodigy or Korn. No Idea who Devildriver are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin1982 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Crue were really good when they played a few years ago. Devil Driver are er... speed metal?? Not really paid too much attention to 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah your right , if you say they weren't any good then i guess they just weren't any good . I liked their early stuff regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benkei Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I like Limp Bizkit As with most bands, their early stuff was the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 They were good if you were 14 and thought saying fuck on-stage was cool. Apparently Blink 182 are getting back together too. Damn, 2009 sucks. At least the new Cannibal Corpse and Napalm Death albums are killer. Limp Bizkit reform. Billions fail to give a shit.

Maybe new Dream theater , Lamb of god , Dillinger escape plan and Slayer albums planned for the first half of 2009 will cheer you up ? Tis what im looking forward too.

Tis what im looking forward too. Ooh yeah, looking forward to the new DT album. Bought Chaos In Motion DVD set last weekend, Mike Portnoy is a genius. Not too fussed about DEP, but you can't go wrong with Slayer and LoG are pretty good too. The new Sepultura album sucks (no surprise there) and I beleive a new Cavalera Conspiracy album is either out or out soon (I've not checked). \m/ >.

You're going to tell me though that you like this sort of music, and you don't like 'thier law' by the Prodigy? One of the best driving songs of all time IMO (along wth smack my bitch up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steady_dave Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I thought the bizkit were awesome, not musically, but when your smashed in a club and break stuff comes on it's awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best driving songs of all time IMO (along wth smack my bitch up) Yes, I'm a big Grindcore/Death Metal fan. Been into Napalm Death & Carcass since about '87. Gotta love George 'Corpsegrinder''s vocals on the later Cannibal Corpse stuff - he is the troo voice of Death Metal. Alex Webster's bass work is insane, too. Funnily enough, 'Their Law' is one of the few tracks I don't mind by Prodigy. One of my bands did a metal version of Breathe once. That was fun. [goes off to listen to 'Evisceration Plague' again] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I loved all 3 albums when i was younger. Think i was around 15 when they first appeared. I went to their concert at the M.E.N Arena which was brillaint. One of the best i've been to of the limited few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'll probably pick the album up for old times sake - it's reasonable 'filler' music. I just hope the writing has progressed beyond: "If I say F**k 2 more times, that's 46 F**ks in this f**ked up rhyme". Woo, you go Fred, you 'da man!
