I didn’t know any of Limp Bizkit’s new songs so it was a wild guess if I would like this album. I have another of their albums, Chocolate Starfish, and I do think that results may vary is slightly better because of the mixture of the type of songs. There are two versions of this album, one with a Bonus Limited Edition DVD included and the other without this DVD…but they both cost the same!
The Casing and Cover
The album with the free DVD has a red, blue and white sticker on the front with the Limp Bizkit sign at the top, the albums name (Results May Vary), ‘featuring “eat you alive”’ and then ‘includes bonus limited edition DVD’ in capitals. The front cover of the actual CD case is green with Fred Durst’s face on it. The back has the Limp Bizkit sign in white. It has a vertical green stripe on the side of the back and the 17 songs are printed in white and they are printed so you have to turn the CD 90o to read them. It also has a photo of Fred Durst in a crowd singing
a song on the back that seems to be so bright it hasn’t come out very well. The CD case is the usual album thickness.
Inside the Case
Inside, there is the usual little booklet on the lid, which has the words, limpbizkit in the top right hand corner, directly underneath this, it says "results may vary", in smaller letters. In the bottom left hand side it states "Parental Advisory Explicit Content". The booklet has the lyrics and a few photographs inside it. There is the CD, which resembles a white safety tablet bottle lid with ‘close tightly’ and ‘while pushing down turn’ written in red on it. The CD holder can be lifted up like a lid, to reveal the free DVD underneath.
Songs and Lyrics
There are 17 songs on the album, 1. Re entry (2:37minutes), this is just an intro to the album, but good. 2. Eat you alive (3:56mins), I thought this song was brilliant, it’s obviously about a girl that doesn’t like the look of him and thinks she’s too good for him. A heavy song. 3. Gimmie the mic (3:01mins), this song was heavy all the way through and very good but has a lot of swear words. 4. Underneath the gun (5:41mins), this song isn’t heavy at all nearly and half of it is about loneliness and then goes on singing about something else. The chorus of this song is 2 lines long, the whole song is good. 5. Down another day (4:06mins), this is another non-heavy song about seasons going from summer to winter and then summer coming back. 6. Almost over (4:38mins), this song is hardly heavy except the chorus. It’s all about how someone growing up and all the things that happened to him when he was a little boy and then when he was older. 7. Build a Bridge (3:57mins), this song is another non-heavy tune and is about how a man hopes that if he keeps building then something will come. 8. Red light-green light (3:55mins), this song is like soft rap but a load of nonsense and full of swear words. 9. The only one (4:09mins), this is about someone getting to know his girl before something happens between them. It’s quite a heavy song. 10. Let me down (4:16mins), this song is all about heartache and it’s not so heavy but is heavy in some places. 11. Lonely world (4:34mins), this song isn’t heavy anywhere. It’s about someone’s life in the past and childhood. 12. Phenomenon (3:56mins), this is heavy song at the beginning but don’t be put off. It’s a great song, I can’t tell what it’s about. 13. Creamer (radio is dead) (4:31mins), this song is all about someone who is trying to be something they’re not. It’s not so heavy but good. 14. Head for the barricade (3:32mins), I loved this song, especially the chorus. It’s not quite heavy except the chorus. It’s about someone who gets angry and want’s to fight. 15. Behind blue eyes (4:38mins), this song is nice and peaceful. It’s about someone who no one likes and is all alone in the world. 16. Drown (3:51mins), this song is about someone who has accomplished everything in his life and is about to die and he can see the angels. It’s a nice non-heavy song. 17. Let it go (5:11mins), this is a good song. They have put no lyrics in the booklet on this song.
There are 27 swearwords in the whole album, you may think it’s a lot but it’s nothing compared to what Chocolate Starfish had. Most of the songs don’t have swear words in them, it’s just about 5 or six that have a fair lot. If you’re into non-stop heavy metal, then this isn’t the album for you. But is certainly worth buying if you like a bit of relaxing music as well as heavy.
