Limp Bizkit

A rare few can boast the staying power and permeating legacy of a band like LIMP BIZKIT. Forged in Florida in the mid 90s with a raucous fusion of rock, metal and hip hop, LIMP BIZKIT's staggering legacy cemented in 1997 via their innovative debut album 'Three Dollar Bill, Y'all', with their angsty odes and genre-blurring ultimately influencing the nu metal stampede that catapulted into the mainstream.

Now boasting six studio albums, including their #1 charting albums 'Significant Other' (1999) and 'Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water' (2000) as well as their most recent full length 'Still Sucks' (2021), LIMP BIZKIT have also received three Grammy Award nominations, wins at the Billboard Music Awards and Kerrang! Awards, and an induction into MTV's Total Request Live Hall of Fame in 2001. And with multiple platinum albums already under their belts and over 13 million monthly dedicated listeners on Spotify alone, LIMP BIZKIT's fanbase continues to explode globally, as do their monstrous live performances.

A band who can party like it's 1999 multiple decades on, LIMP BIZKIT's palpitating array of rock, metal, rap and beyond is as potent as ever, inciting mosh pits and rock'n'roll rebellion in a way only frontman Fred Durst and co. truly can. From their generation-defining singles like Break Stuff, Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle) and Nookie to newer cuts that keep the party vibes ferociously pumping, it's undeniable that LIMP BIZKIT as as electrifying now as they were when nu metal first reigned supreme.
