I was playing around on YouTube today, watching some guy play a version of GTA V where you can play as a police officer, and on the little sidebar was a Limp Bizkit video for "Rollin".
Fred Durst reminds me of Scumbag Steve in the worst kind of way.
I hadn't heard the song for ages, so I gave it a quick listen. It was kind of hilarious how epic 90's music videos and yet kind of catchy at the same time.
Anyway just thought I'd put out a feeler and see if we have any current/former Bizkit fans on the board.
(P.S.) - I'll make the poll private so you don't have to worry about being judged by the CP brain trust if you ever were a fan. [Reply]

Smash Mouth - garbage
Sugar Ray - Decent, although they totally changed their style to be popular
Goo Goo Dolls - meh
Lifehouse - good
Train - hated it
Vertical Horizon - good stuff
Creed - used to like them even though they had a churchy vibe
Nickelback - wasn't a huge fan but no clue how they got so hated. Catchy good rock
John Mayer - hate him about as much as Adam Levine's band
You know that popular third eye blind song...is about tripping on crystal meth? [Reply]

He was into metalcore as well and had gotten into it because of his two sons that were around my age. They were devoutly Christian so they listened to a lot of the Christian stuff, though he did listen to "secular" metal too. He and I would jam out all day while cutting/packaging meat.
I was never a believer myself but he got me into some Christian hardcore/metalcore. I will say, some of those bands ran circles around some of the shit I listened to at the time. Bands like Zao, Society's Finest, Norma Jean... Still listen to it periodically when I'm feeling like some heavy stuff.
Society's Finest "Knife Fight"
Zao "Lies of a serpent, river of tears"
Norma Jean "Memphis will burn" all make my "jam" playlists [Reply]

I mean, the lyrics are pretty clear:
“Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break
It won't stop, I won't come down
I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again, then I bumped again, I said” [Reply]

I like how people equate personal preference for music and movies as an intelligence test. If you like Nickelback or appreciated the action in Transformers - there is no way you can be intelligent and how dare you for liking such a thing. [Reply]

Yeah, that was what was great about 3EB. The shit they were talking about was pretty intense - but it was still in harmonic rhythm with a sad & happy vibe all at the same time.
Everclear did a little of the same, but with different sounds. [Reply]

Slow motion - another good one.
My sister's eating paint chips again
Maybe that's why she's insane
I shut the door to her moaning
And I shoot smack in my veins
Wouldn't you?
See my neighbor's beating his wife
Because he hates his life
There's an arc to his fist as he swings
Oh man, what a beautiful thing
And death slides close to me
Won't grow old to be
A junkie wine-o creep
Hollywood glamorized my wrath
I'm the young urban psychopath
I incite murder
For your entertainment
'Cause I needed the money
What's your excuse?
The jokes on you [Reply]

That's ironic. I used to listen primarily to dark, doom, and drug metal. After I finally rid myself of my inner demons, it dawned on me that the music I was listening to was feeding them. I decided to make a change to positive, Christian-themed metal that was more compatible with my lifestyle and that's how I ended up getting into metalcore. My favorite band is Phinehas and there's a good chance I'll be seeing August Burns Red with Fit For A King later this month.
I've also branched out into deathcore and death prog. Stuff like Impending Doom and this:
now this thread got me listening to 3 dolla bill yall! lol There are actually alot of songs on that first album that are good
It wasn't terrible. Not good really either. Was friends with a guy who was friends with them and got us free tickets for shows in the KC area when this album started making some radio play. One of the worst live bands I've ever seen. Truly terrible. [Reply]
