Performer: Limp Bizkit
Producer: Fred Durst; Limp Bizkit; Rick Rubin; Terry Date Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: Includes previously unreleased tracks. Personnel: Method Man, Redman. Although the late-1990s rap-metal craze that Limp Bizkit helped to spawn was long gone by 2005, the band issued this GREATEST HITZ collection in the fall of that year. While the compilation does feature some of the group's hip-hop-infused tracks (the cred-building "N 2 Gether Now," featuring Method Man) it also showcases its more straightforward rock side (the brooding, neo-headbanger "My Way"). And for the Bizkit completist, the collection includes three previously unreleased tunes, including the angst-ridden acoustic number "Why" and a cover of the Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony."
Taking their musical cue from their friends in Korn, Limp Bizkit bottled the rage of metal and merged it with vocalist's Fred Durst's white-boy rapping skills. With the kind of rock-star excess missed by some in the mid-late 1990s (due largely to Guns N' Roses' MIA status during this time), Durst and company attempted to pick up the slack all by themselves.
