I take back every harsh word I have ever
uttered or written about Fred Durst. After hearing this CD I changed my
mind. The band has been laughed off as a joke and for being very limited
musicians but “Results May Vary” is a new milestone for the group and rap-rock
as a whole. They delve deep into themselves to find their inner core and
lay it all out for us to hear.
Forget that this album was supposedly quickly
written and the guitarist had just joined the band. Forget that the group
waited far too long since their last CD to produce new music. Fred was
busy chasing Bettys (or was it Wilmas? Perhaps Barneys?). None of that
matters now that we behold this true piece of art. An album of such utter
meretricious material that it’s greatness will be lost on us in our time
but only in hindsight will we grasp just what a Herculean effort this 16
song opus was.
All we have to do is gaze upon the lyrics
or feast our ears upon the beautiful noise the Bizkit is cranking out.
Has no finer love song been written than “Eat You Alive”? Shakespeare could
not imagine tackling prose such as this, “Hey you, Mrs. I don't know what
the fuck your name is, I'm drawn to you. / Something's magnetic here. /
be fine / No doubt that (no doubt) / You bring out (bring out) /The animal
inside”. The deep hidden meanings will leave us pondering the hours away,
“what is Fred trying to say? What’s the band trying to play?”
But it’s Fred’s raps that really show him
shining. He takes the genre to a whole new depth with rhymes such as this,
“It's the motherfucking concrete / Suicidal night shift / Loaded with the
vice grip / Pumping out your copies / You keep watering down shit / Thinking
you can rap with that artificial outfit”.
As you can see Fred Durst is a musical
genius on the level of Missy Elliot, Jani Lane and Bay City Rollers. Listening
to the sure bizkitness of this album wash over me with every agonizing
second I realized Fred has a plan, and it’s a beautiful plan.
You see Fred really does care about us.
He wants what is best for each and every single one of us, so he devised
this plan to help us all. When it came time to write and record “Results
May Vary” this plan took center stage and possessed Fred to his core.
You may ask what the plan is. Well my friends,
it is really very simple; Fred agrees with us that most music today is
total garbage. The pop, pop-punk, rap-rock, and lackluster nu-metal tends
over the past few years has left us with a musical hangover that no amount
of aspirin or hair of the dog will remedy. You see, Fred agrees and he
recorded this album to accomplish a few things:
1) To show the major record companies that
the “trend is dead”.
2) To show the sheep that the “trend is
dead”.
3) To prove that commercialized rebellion
is ludicrous.
4) To prove Charles Darwin was not full
of shit after all but Orwell was right as well; some monkeys are more equal
than others.
5) And this is most important goal, so
it is such a monumental task and just shows how much Fred is giving of
himself to accomplish it. With “Results May Vary” I believe Fred wanted
to put the final nail in the coffin of the nightmare which has been rap-rock,
nu-metal rap, mallcore, whichever term you might like. Fred understood
that once the public got a whiff of what this CD was all about it would
pave the way for this trend to gasp its dying breath and thus open the
doors to something new and hopefully better.
Not many artists have accomplished this.
But let us reflect on the giants Fred will join if he succeeds on his quest
to kill rap-rock once and for all. We have Warrant who helped kill 80’s
hair-metal by taking cheese to the max with “Cherry Pie”. We have Kool
& The Gang’s “Celebration” which helped kill disco, although an honorable
mention must be given to KISS who really showed us the writing on the wall
when they released “I Was Made For Loving You” the previous year.
So you see Fred is not such a bad guy after
all. He made the worst possible album with a noble intention of bringing
down the albatross of rap-rock. We need to give him a round of applause
because if this album doesn’t cement the inevitable downfall of rap-rock
it will take a thousand Vanilla Ice cover bands to do it.
Finally, on the off chance that I totally
misread Fred’s intentions and he was actually trying to make a “good” album,
then I have to say that Kelly Osbourne aside this is one of the worst CD’s
I’ve heard in a long, long time. But I hold strong to my belief that
Fred meant this album to be this bad. Because let’s face it, you really
have to work hard to such this much ass!
…Or maybe it just comes naturally to Fred.

cut the crap of the latest album.. its slow and lame. significant other and choclate starfish were great.. nookie, hot dog, rollin', MI2 , my generation, boiler, my way or the highway , faith and a lot more were awesome tracks.. name me 5 tracks that are good in results may vary .. all i can say is give me the mic lived up their name.. the others sounds slow and sh*t ! limp bizkit should get wes borland back and rock the way he did !

--- just when we thought we were finally rid of Donnie Walberg in the late 80's, Fred Durst steps in, and fills the market demand for lame white guys who have convinced themself "dAt DeY gUtZ dA mAd FlAvA yO". He's even got the whole "phat gold chain/backwards hat" motif happening--- but at least the comic relief factor is there to save all else.

Posted by Neofire.net:
Sorry, I don't follow any particular "bandwagon" or "trend." I follow good music and this, in no possible way, can even be classified as music. It is purile filth, derivative noise that Fred Durst ripped off from himself (which he originally ripped off from Korn). I don't care if he doesn't "sing" about f*cking and s*cking. Fred Durst still thinks he's a hardcore rapper. Fred Durst still writes horrible lyrics. Fred Durst still puts out some of the worst mainstream music (up there with Avril Lavigne, Simple Plan, Missy Elliot, any boy band, and Good Charlotte). Fred Durst still is a disgrace to humanity. And Limp Bizkit is STILL a horrible band. Stop being a tool, think for yourself, and question sh*tty music.

wow! and i actually thought that Fred was trying harder with his music to show people that everyhting isnt just about f**king and sucking... honestly you people are so ridiculous.

"it's cool to be a hater"
i think this first off, all to you haters and you band wagon people that just want to hate limpbizkit. you guys are just one follower after another. fred durst is a human being. limp's latest album "Results May Vary" is a down to earth album from fred himself.but then you have people that have websites like this and love to just hate on bands like limpbizkit. what is it about them you guys just hate. for real i don't get it. its music and you people take it way to far. what is so wrong with RMV that you guys don't like?. Its not a nu`metal album, its a done to earth album straight from freds heart. what kinda music you guys listen to you guys. i mean limpbizkit has sold over more albums then your f***in bands like slipknot and all those hardcore bands. please just leave limp alone and stop bashing them for everything that fred or limpbizkit does!

ok..its like this. Limp Bizkit is great. SO WHAT, that this album isn't what everyone expected. The band just went through a HUGE lost...by losing Wes. For those idiots that don't know any better, Fred had some personal issues as well. I think that this is a huge recovery for Limp Bizkit considering all they went through. I saw them live in Toronto last summer, and I would love for someone to tell me that they did not leave an awesome impression. They were outstanding. I think everyone got to get off Limp Bizkit's back, and just wait until a few more albums (which will happen) before "putting nails in the coffin." There are enough die hard Bizkit fans out there to keep them living forever. And another thing...if you think you can do better then the Limp?....prove it...if not?....keep your trap closed.

Posted by Hybrid:
I think you guys need to get a f*cking life. Limp Bizkit's best album was their first one, period. Since then, they've never been as good or the same, but they've had a few good, catchy tunes. They're not a mind-blowing caliber band, so why is everyone acting like they're SO surprised that this new cd isn't really anything special? It's the same kind of stuff they always put out. If you haven't figured out by now that they have no plans to change, why waste any more time or resources to bitch about it on a forum? Dumb as hell, if you ask me.

Posted by Duke:
The reason they waited 3 years it's because they didn'T have inspiration and WEs was no more interested. I think the 4th album will be good cause Mike looks like a great guitar player...For exemple Build a bridge,lonely world,underneath the gun and the only one are a good new style of limp bizkit...if they could put this new style with the old one in 3 dollar bills it would make a good album
Posted by JES:
It's too bad they didn't actually work more than 3-4 weeks to release this. If they would have polished this product more and spent more time on it i think it would have been much better. I'll be interested in hearing their next album if they put a lot more effort into producing it. This album reminds me of their '99 album Significant Other. It's decent...but i almost get the feeling Fred is just saying the hell with everything bc he feels he's already made his money. What other explanation is there after not releasing an album for 3 years?
Posted by DUke:
I love limp Bizkit and im not an id*et like you haters.. when i don't like a band i don't blast it or talking sh*t about it i just don't listen to it. You are all listenning to limp bizkit,Why, cause you wanna look intelligent when you blast them... try to do better and sh*t your mounth. I know that limp bizkit is not hard to play...but greenDay was more easy, nirvana,korn,Metallica is almost the easiest you just need to go fast.And music is a personnal opinion, you shouldn't insult a person who likes limp bizkit, you don't like it, don'T listen to it and sh*t the f*ck up

Wow, I was really afraid for a second there that a person able to write an articulate review could be capable of loving a Limp Bizkit album. When I heard 'Eat You Alive' on the radio, I burst out laughing. I've been listening to this kind of stuff for years now. It's important for everyone to know how much better music is out there. Kids: don't listen to what industry heads tell you to listen to - find the best stuff yourself. You'll laugh at yourself later for ever liking this joke-rock. Don't worry, I won't tell if you don't.

First of custy, your opinion means 0 if that is the best you can come up with. Try again. Your wit is just a bit too... (fill in the blank.. and not the blank between custy's ears) "First up, your oviously a bit retarded or gay". You should learn how to spell your insults if you want them to work. Let's talk about calling someone gay for a minute. You like Limp Bizkit, a group that has more homosexual references in their music than any band since Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Hell their first three albums had homosexual references in their titles. "Three Dollar Bill"? "Significant Other"? "Chocolate Starfish.. hotdog flavored water?" Gee wonder what that means? I'll give you three guesses and the first two don't count. Do you know what Limp Bizkit stands for? So you see, if I was, as you call it "gay" I would have embraced this obviously (that's how the word is spelled) homosexual themed music like you did. And anyone that uses the word brilliant in reference to Limp Bizkit has absolutely no credibility. As for the mall-kid term, that is what they call you behind your back. That or a “three dollar bill”!
Posted by S:
Nice review ;)
Posted by custy:
First up, your oviously a bit retarded or gay, or both.your review hilariously unfunny and showed definate signs of homosexuality. Second,the album was a bit of a let down but a million times better than you said it was.besides track 1 & 8, it was a 70 min+ journey, brilliant in every sense of the word. & im not a "mall kid" (an example of your fag-ness, who says that?another example is that you ban "bad words".i rest my case)
Posted by Spectre:
One of the worst albums of 2003. A big dissapointment. The new guitarist is very average. Fred Durst pathetically tries to rap on "Red Light Green Light," he rhymes baby with baby a hundred times. Most of the choruses are boring, simple and repetitive. These songs don't have any personality, crunch or anything overly particularly interesting. The only notable songs are "Underneath the Gun" and "Let Me Down" and thats about it.
Posted by Goob:
You guys don't know anything about music, i haven't heard the new album but the first two singles are decent, the music videos are really good, and he's not as good as eminem but he can hold his own, i'll probably buy results may vary eventually, and fred DEFINITELY doesn't put out TRL music!!!
Posted by ps1locyb3:
LOL @ all of the posts. I think it's pretty funny that the vast majority of negative posters seem to have the "bad critique" type of personality, and I believe that some even go to great lengths to impress people they will never meet with words that they didn't know existed until 5 minutes ago. Good job posters! I'm always amazed how many more times negative criticism seems to take hold over positive criticism in such discussions. Perhaps (just a thought) many of these posters are formulating an inadequacy of some part of their being into a minus side comment about a band that they don't particularly like (don't you have something better on which to waste your time?). Otherwise, why would the number of posistive posters equal about 5% of a section? Maybe because someone who enjoys their music can honestly say that they don't give a rat's a.ss what the f.uck anyone else thinks about it. I think that some notable posters (you know, with the repressed anger posts lol) should go home and sort out their problems instead of trying to point out others' problems. Thank you for reading this, I like venting from time to time. And imho, Limp Bizkit's new album isn't that great for quality - CSATHDFW was much better.

I seem to notice in your review you only mentioned two out ouf SIXTEEN songs and ten of these song sound very different (musically and lyrically)to the two you mentioned. In the end though I understand you have your opinion and I have mine. I spent my money on the album you may not have. You may think I wasted my money I think it was well spent. I've learnt that all people have different tastes. If you can't respect that then you don't desvere other people's respect. My best friend love's every band that I hate, but I've learnt to just go hey were different in some ways, but is something as simple as different musical tastes going to stop us being friends? No. It's just like religous beliefs, this may be a long strecth but some people are Nazi's and Limp Bizkit lover's are Jews, your sick and twisted in the head if you kill us off(treat us differently because of who we are). Yes I'm a long winded 15 year old.

Eat You Alive is the best song on it and even thats just alright .. kinda ok now i must wait ages for another good album and just think hope its totally like the Chocolate Starfish Album,GOD KNOWS why they released this album its effort of work put in is poor as HELL.

Posted by Jesus Schwartz:
to ademas fake: there is no evidence linking Fred Durst to any sex act related to any of the females he's been known to ramble about on his website, so he's very likely "at home jacking off" to videos of his Woodstock '99 performance, where people were somewhat excited to see him perform, back when their song catalog was small enough where only half of their songs sucked, as opposed to currently where 3/4 of their material created a vacuum significant enough to actually suck the validity out of rap-rock as an artform...

Posted by Monarch:
To mix rap with metal, you must make sacrifices. A lot of compromises have to be made. They are 2 completely different genres, with 2 different paces. So in order to make both work out, both have to be simplified to the bone in order to avoid overlapping each other's ground. Personally I don't like rap, and I don't like rap metal. But I guess I will give credit to Evil Monkey. You have to have an open mind. I kinda liked the "blue eyes" song. I've never heard the original, so I can't compare it. But as much as I hate LB, it doesn't stop me from liking it. Or "Hold on" off their 'Chocolate fukkface' album.

Hopefully the weight of this album combined with St. Anger will once and for all bring down the regime of wuss-rock that has plagued the radio waves for the last few years.

Much better than I could have ever expected.This album was doomed before it was ever released since most already had it in their mind that it was going to suck before they ever heard it. I guess I'm one of the few that actually hope that this will not be their last album.If anyone wants to hear a bad album borrow don't buy the latest from ADEMA.

...admittedly, I kinda liked their cover of "Behind Blue Eyes" (having heard it just last night), in the respect that they didn't completely ruin the original's lamented tone, and where the original version went double-time and electrified, Limp Bizkit put their "stamp" and simply added the gratuitous scratches and sound effects to make it their own while keeping the same slow beat...it was far better than I had expected from them, considering how intentionally goofy they covered "Faith", but they would have done even better if they had left the song alone and maybe tried to cover a Monkees song (no pun intended)...

That was perhaps the funniest thing I've read in a while.

I still stick with my statement: it deserves anywhere from 2 to 2.5 stars. It could've been a lot worse. Honestly aG, i think you're letting your personal feelings get in the way this time.

"Sucks ass with the power of a thousand Hoovers giving power enemas."--- Classic. Absolutely f*cking CLASSIC.

I listened to both Adema and Bizkit right the way through, throughly analyzing every single track. Yes indeed Adema was infinately crap, but the crapness of Bizkit was so extreme that they broke all limitations of crapness to become some kind of genetically engineered uber crap. Significant Other would probably have scored a 6.5/10 from me, but Result May Vary would have indefinately scored *insert some witty phrase here to explain just how lowly I would rate it*

Wow, that was a great review... for the first two paragraphs I was afraid, no, horrified, that it was serious, but then it resurrected itself.

Monkey, I did listen to it and you are right my review is biased. I was far too nice to them, I could have ripped it track by track but decided not to. Unlike Adema's latest, this one did not have nearly the level of songwriting or musicianship. That's not saying much but Adema's seemed much more thoughtout and I found the melodies more compelling. It does comedown to a matter of taste but if you ask me this album was a step backwards from a band that doesn't have much room to tread musically. They are an insult to most bands that actually have the talent and try to make compelling music not just cash in on trends and get their bling bling and tabloid headlines. I will leave you with this thought; it’s not hard to understand that someone might actually like this CD when you consider that expectations have been lowered so masterfully over the past few years by the music industry. Think about it Fred Durst, Missy Elliot, 50 Cent, etc would not have stood a chance even 15 years ago. Granted there has always been crap music on the market but this is the sub par of the sub par.

Monkey, chances are anyone who visits this site is biased towards Limp Bizkit..so blast away as far as im concerned. Durst is like the last turd in the public toilet..he just wont f**in flush no matter how hard the janitor tries..eventually he'll just dissolve in the toilet water (eventually being now)..and i couldnt be more happy.... 'red light green light'..gee why didnt i ever think of that?!

Honestly, aG, did you actually listen to this album? It's really not THAT bad...definetely not any worse than Adema's album which you thought was decent. Don't get me wrong, I hate Fred Durst as much as the next person, and I thought Chocolate Starfish was the worst album I've ever heard, but this one is, for the most part, semi-decent. It actually does sound like they tried to make a good album, and they didn't, but they did at least make an album that isn't laughably bad, except for the rap songs and the Who cover. Like I said, I am a Limp Bizkit hater, but I would have enough sense not to write a biased review like this.

On 2nd thought... Perhaps Fred was just taking a line from Metallica?
Posted by Hobo:
Yea some early hed isn't too bad actually. Its funny, never for a single moment in the article did I think you were serious... did anyone else pick up on that? Hah hah, nice review I agree whole heartedly. My foolish kid brother bought the CD, its so damn bad. I think my favourite part on Eat You Alive was 'I'm so sorry (damn you so hot)' I may have to reconsider my statement of Adema being the worst release of the year. To think, Bizkit were once a listenable mallcore band! They weren't *horrible* on Significant Other. All I can do for Fred is pray for a prolonged, brutal and gory death.

in my opinion mixing rap with rock isnt always negative,aG,for example insolence,biohazard,and early (hed)p.e.
