Is the Rock World Ready for the Return of Limp Bizkit?

Photo: Mazur/WireImage Back in 2001, Limp Bizkit had sold 14 million records and frequently clogged New York’s Times Square with their appearances on MTV’s Total Request Live. But by the time they put out 2005’s The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1), the band (without guitarist Wes Borland) was releasing albums without advertising pushes and SoundScanning 37,000 in the first week. In a joint statement released last Thursday, Fred Durst and Borland announced they were ready to get Limp Bizkit back together. But the question remains: Are we ready for Limp Bizkit? It’s no industry secret that the landscape has changed in the eight years since this lineup was actively touring and releasing records. Heavy music comes with eyeliner instead of fitted caps, rap-rock bands like Linkin Park have traded beats for ballads, and Fred Durst is best remembered for his macho posturing and public tantrums instead of a lasting music legacy. So will a reanimated Limp Bizkit work in the year 2009? “It depends if the statute of limitations is up on Limp Bizkit being the most hated band ever,” says Tom Beaujour, editor in chief of metal magazine Revolver, who put Durst on the cover in 2000. “Like, is it acceptable to like them? It’s okay for people to like Poison and Warrant again. Bret Michaels is a TV star. Is it okay to like Limp Bizkit again? I don’t know. Hopefully for them it is.” What’s certain is that rock radio isn’t playing the Bizkit as much as the band’s contemporaries. Rock stations like Q101 in Chicago and New York’s 101.9RXP fill their playlists with ’90s brooders like Pearl Jam and Stone Temple Pilots and Bizkit cohorts like Linkin Park, Staind and Puddle Of Mudd. But rarely do they dive into “Nookie.” “We played all Limp Bizkit,” says Danni, assistant program director and music director for New York active rock station 92.3 KRock. “We had huge ratings. It was all about Limp Bizkit. And then there was sort of a shift and people stopped caring and stopped wanting to hear about
