Laughably bad?
editThe lyrics are considered laughably bad by who? That sentence is either NPOV, or sources desperately need to be cited. For god's sake anyway, Chocolate Starfish on the whole has far worse lyrics anyway. - Nova Prime 13:38, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:LimpBizkitResultsMayVary.jpg
editImage:LimpBizkitResultsMayVary.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Bias
editWhy were the 0 star reviews removed? They were just as notable as the other more positive reviews. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.115.27.191 (talk) 21:33, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
Underneath the Gun
editDo you really think the search for "Underneath the Gun" should redirect to Results May Very? A deathcore band formed under this name in 2004, they broke up by the end of 2009, but may qualify under notability for Wikipedia status. If there page does get created, should it take the "Underneath the Gun" slot, or have it as "Underneath the Gun (band)"? • GunMetal Angel 01:27, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

Mike Smith timetable
editJust curious, anyone know about when he joined, and then left? The article currently makes it sound like he left pretty early on, but when looking at sources to consult on a few things, it seems like he was with them for a while, playing at a number of live shows and everything. Just curious. Could be worth noting if it was covered in sources. Sergecross73 msg me 15:09, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
The article makes it sound like he was out of the band before recording finished, and as a result he wasn't very present on the record. However, he was still in the band the year after. What I'm pretty sure what happened is that most of the songs were already recorded, since he was only in the band for a few months at the time of release. I've got no sources to back that up, but as it stands, events happening as the article states them is impossible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.186.228.249 (talk) 03:34, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Brian Welch does NOT play on this album
editCombing through all possible track information, it’s come to my realization that Brian Welch only appeared with Limp Bizkit at Wrestlemania 19, even during the cited episode of MTV’s Album Launch, it shows Elvis Baskette playing the guitar part to ‘Build a Bridge’ 2603:8001:2E07:2D00:EC53:6513:86B0:40F5 (talk) 07:38, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
Nu Metal genre
editNu metal genre.
Multiple sources claim Limp Bizkit to be a, first and foremost, a nu metal band; including:
Limp Bizkit’s profile at Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/se/artist/limp-bizkit/105544?l=en-GB — “Nu Metal pioneers”.
Spotify’s official Nu Metal play list, featuring Fred Durst on the cover. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DXcfZ6moR6J0G
On each and every Loudwire article, for example, https://loudwire.com/best-limp-bizkit-album-vote/ — “one of the most beloved Nu Metal bands”, and https://loudwire.com/limp-bizkit-cover-metallica-master-puppets-videos/ — “Nu Metal version”.
On each and every Metal Hammer / Louder Than Sound article, for example: https://www.loudersound.com/news/limp-bizkit-fred-durst-new-look-european-tour — “nu metal daddies”, and https://www.loudersound.com/news/limp-bizkit-gunenrsbury-park-london-announced — “nu metal legends”.
Fred Durst referring to himself as the “king of nu metal” on track 4 “Turn It Up, B*tch” from their latest album ‘Still Sucks’ (2021).
Additionally -and on the same song- referring to the band as “nu metal one hit wonders”.
Wikipedia’s Nu metal page: “Nu metal became popular in the late 1990s with bands and artists such as Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Slipknot all releasing albums that sold millions of copies.”
The Guardian: https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2023/aug/13/limp-bizkit-review-piece-hall-halifax-nu-metal — “nu metal elders”.
Multiple Revolver articles including: https://www.revolvermag.com/music/10-wildest-nu-metal-performances — “Wild nu metal performances”.
Multiple Kerrang! Articles including: https://www.kerrang.com/amp/limp-bizkit-how-significant-other-saw-the-nu-metal-anti-heroes-take-over-the-world — “the nu Metal anti-heroes”
These are just a few examples (quick google search, first hits) to prove that Limp Bizkit is widely recognized as a nu metal band. Acknowledged by the band members themselves, the media, the critics and the fans.
Hope with this information you reconsider your position and change the main genre on their Wikipedia page.
Thank you , Warm regards,
