Happy new year. Time to add any artists that I now like five songs from, starting with...

Limp Bizkit

Limp-Bizkit-1997-billboard-1548.jpg


Genre: rap metal

Discovered: Their cover of "Faith", which I hate.

Other: Honestly, not a fan of this group. I think most of their music sucks and they're a big part of why rap metal went from cool & cutting edge to being a joke. But they finally came out with a fifth song I like (#4 below), so I guess they qualify.

HIGH FIVE:

1. Take A Look Around
2. Break Stuff
3. Nookie
4. Out Of Style
5. Gimme The Mic

Genre: heavy rock/metal

Discovered: CMJ New Music Monthly Volume 77 (January 2000)

Other: When their first album dropped, they were four teenaged girls. And they kicked ass HARD. They ended up touring with Slipknot. Billboard called them "the most successful female band in modern metal" in December 2001. After a 10+ year hiatus, they're back. Honestly, their first and newest albums are the only ones worth owning though.

HIGH FIVE:

1. Spit (first album)
2. Brackish (first album)
3. We Are Shadows (latest album)
4. One Foot In The Grave (latest album)
5. Do You Think I'm A Whore (first album)
