On June 7th (day after my birthday!), Limp Bizkit returns to the world with the album Gold Cobra. Still no word on what the single is and still no clarification on the exact release plans, since Durst mentioned that this might be a two album release with eight songs each (eleven on the deluxe), but I'm hoping for something a little more standard. I guess we'll see.

I want to first hear this with an open state of mind. I actually loved "$3 Bill, Yallz" when it came out and I was just a wee freshman in High School. I really liked "Significant Other" and "Chocolate Starfish" too, but shortly after when Fred's ego was exposed greatly into the media, I gained a lot of disrespect for the guy and I stopped caring about Limp Bizkit's music. I downloaded the singles onto mix CDs, but could care less about the albums. I've heard "Results May Vary" was actually halfway decent. Now that I'm obviously much older years later, I hopefully can forget about what happened in the past and think of this upcoming release as from a new band I've never heard of before.

I'd like to think I never let what I think of band members get in the way of enjoying their music, but I'll admit I heavily avoided Limp for a long time because of the stigma of Durst. When I finally decided to plunge in, I was pleasantly surprised that they're not complete crap. And of course, I loved The Unquestionable Truth even though it was an obvious Rage ripoff. I'm interested in hearing what the Bizkit has up their sleeve this time, but I'm not liking the rumors about the album releases.

"Douche Bag" is the single Durst wants but he said the label doesn't want that one, so who knows.

Yeah but if it's not the single, then that thread is useless. Also it's half a year old.

I thought it'd be more appropriate if Artie posted in the Douchebag thread.

Hey, I've got a solution, instead of bumping threads over a year old, why don't we use this nice, fresh, clean one that I made right here?

That's fine, because this isn't about either of those songs.

We'll just have both threads like dueling banjos.

So, anyone hoping for some Black Light Burns influence on this album?

Haha. I like what you did there.
Yeah, sure, if that means the removal of Fred Durst. I thought "Lie" & "4 Walls" were great.

Just to be clear... Artie hasn't embodied you, has he? ;)
Yeah, I prefer BLB to Limp Bizkit. I'd actually rather this was a TBA thread for BLB. Imagine, what would Artie be able to do then?

Haha it looks like Pen's having an argument with himself because Artie Ziff is too ashamed to leave his comments here and stand by them like a real man.

He used to do it to keep his postcount at 420 but he can't do that anymore so I don't understand the point.

"Walking Away" is actually decent. I wouldn't mind hearing that on the radio.

I'm just bummed that I haven't heard a demo of a song from the new album as legitimately good as "Rearranged", "Take A Look Around", and some of the really good more melodic tracks on 'Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Dog Flavored Water'. "The One", "Hold On", and "It'll be Ok" I thought were all quite good. And "Hot Dog" is a legendary heavier track. None of the new stuff has done it for me to that extent.
"Walking Away" is probably my favorite song I've heard from them so far of the newer stuff though.
