5 stars CHILD APROPRIATE!!
This is the BEST cd from Limp Bizkit yet! YOu can't even tell that they cuss they did such a good job on bleeping out. IF you are one of those parents who don't want there kids listening to bad music this cd is ok. I am a parent of a teenager, and this Cd is apropriate.

2 stars Sorry You Fans...This is Drivel With a Groove (sometimes)
This is just my opinion, and I must be honest as my conscience dictates...if you're reading this I hope you're mature enough to respect that.

Ok, forget the comparisons to earlier albums, the debate on combining genres like rap and metal, or how "hot" the band members are...and let's evaluate what we're all here for...the MUSIC.

People, dress it up however you want with scratching, great production values, studio effects and trickery and tons of guest appearances...two chords and superficial mus…

Trivia Edit

  • The demo for "Don't Go Off Wandering" contained guest vocals by System of a Down's Serj Tankian. It was later removed in the final album version after Fred Durst had a fallout with band Taproot, who shared the same management team (Velvet Hammer) as System of a Down (this controversy also led this band to be dropped off the Family Values Tour in 1999).
  • The song "Show Me What You Got" was partially played on The Simpsons episode It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge.
  • The majority of its songs are dedicated to the failure of the relationship between Fred Durst and his long-time girlfriend.
  • The song "9 Teen 90 Nine" was originally supposed to be a cover of the Prince song "1999". The song was recorded, but Prince refused to allow the band to put the song on the album.
