Limp Bizkit

Limp Bizkit, formed in 1994 in Jacksonville, Florida, became one of the leading bands of the nu-metal genre, which fused elements of heavy metal, hip-hop, and alternative rock. Fronted by Fred Durst, the band gained massive popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s with their aggressive sound and rebellious lyrics. Albums like Significant Other (1999) and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water (2000) propelled them to stardom, featuring hits like "Nookie," "Break Stuff," and their cover of George Michael's "Faith." Despite facing critical backlash and controversies over their provocative image and lyrics, Limp Bizkit has maintained a loyal fanbase and remains a defining act of the late '90s rock scene, known for their high-energy performances and Durst's distinctive vocal style.
