I don’t think it’s underrated. Limp Bizkit were HUGE back in like the late 90s early 00s. People knew the instrumentals were good. I do agree that Fred Durst was not as talented as the other members in the band it could’ve been a much better band had they got a better frontman.
Fred Durst was what hurt the band. If Limp Bizkit replaced Fred Durst with a rapper or a hardcore screamer who has an actual backbone and can ACTUALLY rap or scream, this band would have been lit as fuck because the musicianship here is outstanding.
without the vocal, you will never heard them forever or found them. They are a band, and a band will not complete without vocal vise versa, ok. Appreciate them all for bringing this masterpiece kiddos.
"This song is much better without Fred's bad lyrics" saying something like that doesn't make any sense, if you think so, you didn't understand the band's proposal, the lyrics of the bizkit songs are purposely made to be silly and comical, they never wanted to be serious and dark like the other bands. Never heard of comedy rock? because it was from this genre that the band took inspiration to make their songs. And for those who are criticizing Fred's vocals, it was all made to be like that in this song, to leave on the air that they weren't being serious doing it, if you don't believe me, listen to the first album and "The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1)" the vocals in these albums are intense, in "The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1)" is a serious album that shows that Fred knows how to write great lyrics when he wants, because the proposal of this album is to be serious, different from the others. So please don't jump to any conclusions from the band without understanding it or listening to its full discography.
lol most lb haters ain't that knowledgable man. they haven't even heard of tutp1 cause they think limp bizkit starts and ends at csathfw (2000) :D everytime i see a lb hater i start laughing cause i see _oh another lb hater, how original no one's everdone that before_
There's plenty of comedy rock bands with singers who can actually sing. Durst isn't one of them. His vocals suck. It doesn't matter that he "wasn't trying to be serious" (which is a highly-debatable claim in the first place). His voice is whiny, grating, and annoying as hell, to the point that it actively detracts from the instrumental work of Borland, Otto, Rivers, and Lethal (who are actually very good musicians). This band could have been incredible if they had a decent singer/lyricist. Just because Durst was trying to be funny doesn't make him good.
Andy S yo yo yo... ain't jonesin' for the mix, i got my own flavor take my own lyrics, add a lil butter, do me a big favor... pop in baking power, roll out, take the cutter. mad respect for him, got no beef Fred... but he like rice krispies with no snap, crackle, pop; flows be whack dead. low budget Enimem, white boy with delusions of grandeur in his head. you wanna be slim shady? more like slim jim, stick to washing cars, serving drinks in the bar, you'll never be him. "move in, now move out" of the limelight, "back up back up" and let someone else get a chance. without ya voice ruining the beat, this a good jam that make me wanna dance.
don't hate on Fred, he's got a very fresh, hype sounding voice, just what limp bizkit needed in order to be bigger than most numetal crap bands..I like real nu-metal, no emo numetal, or post numetal..Bands like Primer 55,Five ft thick, nothingface,40 below summer, excon,godmode..ect, heavy numetal ....
This band could have been so amazing if they had a decent singer/lyricist. All of these sweet grooves and guitar hooks were wasted on Durst's whiny vocals and moronic lyrics.
I was looking for the hero that leaves lyrics in the commentaries. Guess I'm going to be that one. Siempre busco al héroe en los vídeos que deja la letra en la caja de comentarios, parece ser que yo mismo seré ése.

Everyone says Limp bizkit is great band without Fred, but I don't think so He is really talented and genius guy imo Sometimes his lyrics and the way he sings is, indeed, kinda annoying. But you should rethink who created this great band and a new genre of music. Without his efforts, Limp bizkit wouldn't have went so far or even existed now
I know fred was one of the main reasons Limp Bizkit got noticed and became what they were but I gotta be honest, he was what dragged the rest of the band down because everyone else in LB has some major musical chops. I just wish there were more instrumental tracks for their stuff online so I could hear it without the god awful vocals.
Yeah nu-metal bands actually had a lot of very talented and innovative guitarists, bassists, & drummers. Unfortunately they tended to be fronted by awful singers who wrote whiny, terrible lyrics. Limp Bizkit is a prime example.
I had this on wax and I threw some ice cube I think it was in the midnight hour the accapella over this it actually sounded pretty good I think I even recorded it on tape as future ideas I would work on. Damn I should look for those tapes and hit the storage unit and get all my records out.

most of this comment section boils down to _yee fred durst sucks_ ofc any of these ppl don't even have a clue that this specific song forexample wouldn't exist without presence of fd, as fred durst produces all of limpbizkit songs. how the song structure comes about etc. proof? making of results may vary, making of the unquestionable truth and gold cobra showcase fred durst multiple times being the guy who starts directing forexample wes in a certain direction of a riff he was playing. i gotta give fred some major credit for having to put up with all this bs that seems to constantly surround him and yet he still manages to be such cool and down to earth legit guy.
@Pyro6661 Tell me friend, why is Freddy D the worst thing, that ever could have happened to them? Isn't it his voice what brandmarked Limp Bizkit? ...I think you should review your comment and think about what Fred did for this totally rocking band!!! friendly greetings
Yeah Limp Bizkit became a joke in retrospect but people forget that they were arguably the biggest rock band in the world from like 1997 to 2001. They sold 40 million albums and headlined music festivals and sold-out stadiums all over the world. They recorded crossover collabs with top rappers, did movie soundtracks, appeared in WWE, etc. They were a cultural phenomenon.
