why was my edit taken out about the Unquestionable Truth EP!? it is simply a withholding of information if you state that this is their first album from the original line up since 2000 although they released this EP in 2006, as I recall. I even linked the article to my edit. can anyone explain that to me!? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.222.72.100 ( talk) 10:47, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
i heard there was a song on this album called "bring it" a few days ago on here. were there any references for that
((2011))
Please can we settle the 2011 debate when it hasn't even been confirmed even their website says 2010 year of the cobra and their tour dates are supposed to start this summer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.64.113.225 ( talk) 21:09, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
We should keep it at June 2010 / Summer 2010 until Limp Bizkit Tells the official news —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.64.113.225 ( talk) 23:54, 19 May 2010 (UTC) http://www.limpbizkit.com/whytry/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.64.113.225 ( talk) 23:58, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
All of the tentative release windows have come and gone, and all recent sources [1] [2] [3] only claim "the release date for the LP has yet to be announced." They don't even suggest it could be released later this year. At this point having anything in the release field would be a blatant guess. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and we should not be predicting when this album will come out. Fezmar9 ( talk) 03:37, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
What do you mean with: "and the first full-length album from the original lineup since 2000's Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water." What "Results may vary" was? Thanks. Alakasam 02:25, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
Oh you are right, thanks. Alakasam ( talk) 01:15, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
BUT he WAS involved with the The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1) in 2005! So, I admit that it was only an EP and not a full-length album but to leave the information out raises the main idea that the reader will get, that they have not worked together sinde 2000. And that is definately false. I added this information twice and after the first deletion asked about why it was deleted but even my comment on this talk page got removed. Can anyone explain that please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.178.227.93 ( talk) 02:38, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
The duration of the song is 2:53. The 3:27 extended version of "Los Angelos" is made by a fan, HanoiA ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXMJvAXpFfM) He added a third chorus to his version. The original version only contains 2 choruses. "Los Angeles” is the iTunes exclusive track, at least for Europe. Here is the German iTunes page for Gold Cobra. As you can see the song length is 2:53. 71.214.43.35 ( talk) 18:45, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
A good album is always a good album. The sales reflects it, the people love it no matter how hard the haters try to put the negative reviews on the reception section and it does not matter how hard people try to show it is a good album when the BBC reviews it negatively while it is shown as positive next to the box in the right section. Such malpratices in wikipedia is abolutely pathetic. Who cares, I like the album, I listen to it. Do not give a damn to these absard "competitions". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.234.45.5 ( talk) 08:15, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
Dont worry, we will keep the reception section accurate. Portillo ( talk) 08:19, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
Is there a limit to how many professional reviews you can put in the article? Portillo ( talk) 07:53, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Nu 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,
