Limp Bizkit X-Posed (Interview) - Limp Bizkit

Advantages: There are a lot of fine moments here.
Disadvantages: Not all of the album is particularly impressive.

...This greatest hits collection from Limp Bizkit was finally released in late 2005. With every band on earth seemingly having a greatest hits album available these days, it was only a matter of time before Limp Bizkit would be issued with one. What I love most about this release is the refusal of the band to spell 'Hits' with its correct ending of an 's'. Through spelling it with a 'z', Limp Bizkit are being highly original and Fred Durst continues in his quest to place a 'z' wherever an 's' should truly lie. The man is a genius. You may be under the impression that the latter half of my last paragraph was ever so slightly riddled with sarcasm, and for thinking this you would most certainly be correct.

Advantages: Lots of really good music and some more great rapping by Fred.
Disadvantages: Weak links are definitly to be found.

...Produced by Terry Date & Limp Bizkit 1.Intro 1.18 Catchy little intro, it sets the type of music that's on the rest of the Album, "Rap, hip-hop, thrash, punk metal thrown in a can and spun around". Not my words. 2.Hot Dog 3.50 The first real song on this album it also sets another trend that continue's throughout the Album, constant swaring, justifying the the Parental Advisort label on the frount cover. With the line "If i say f*ck two more times thats 46 f*cks in this F*cked up ryme" it's not hard to work out the extent of this explicit content. There are lots of people who would listen to this and just think it's about swaring which in some ways it is, but it's also about the way Fred Dursk sees life. 3.My Generation 3.41 One of the better known songs on the album, and in my opinion one of the better ones to...
