Significant Other»rank: 15342par: Limp Bizkit
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Florida-bred metal-rappers Limp Bizkit sold a million-plus records of their debut largely on the strength of a George Michael cover song. But the band indeed had 'Faith' and the group's second outing proves that the Bizkit have the goods. Still, it seems as if boastful front-man Fred Durst is loading the band's deck again, this time by including scads of guest vocalists, such as Stone Temple Pilots' singer Scott Weiland, Method Man from Wu-Tang Clan, and Korn's Jonathan Davis. (ln fact, Korn gave Limp Bizkit a leg ... |

Three Dollar Bill Y All»rank: 16954par: Limp Bizkit
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Rap metal has been around ever since 1986 when Run-DMC and Aerosmith joined forces for a remake of 'Walk This Way', but it took nearly a decade for Rage Against the Machine to bust the floodgates wide open. Soon after, a stream of percussive hellraisers including Korn, Downset, and Deftones infiltrated the metal market, and they, in turn, sired a new breed fronted by acts like Snot and Limp Bizkit. Three Dollar Bill Y'All, Limp Bizkit's debut album, is a tempestuous collection of divergent styles. Unlike metal ... |

Chocolate Starfish And The Hot»rank: 22724par: Limp Bizkit
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:The splicing together of nu-metal, rap, funk and sterile electronica, laced with dark melodies as infectious as anything Britney or Steps have to offer, sold 6 million copies of Limp Bizkit's previous album, Significant 0ther. lt also saw them invade mainstream America and more impressively, their doom-fuelled rework of the Mission lmpossible theme, 'Take A Look Around', score a number 3 hit this side of the pond. With Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water, they perfect the formula. From the electro of 'lntro', through the ... |

New Old Songs (Clean)»rank: 64191par: Limp Bizkit
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Most remix albums are irrelevant or just plain awful. Fortunately, Limp Bizkit's first remix album is neither. But with high-profile remixers drawn mostly from the hip-hop world, there's not much room for error. Timbaland adds a dark industrial edge to 'Take a Look Around,' P. Diddy amps up the bass line on 'My Way,' while Butch Vig's version of 'Nookie' has a decidedly 1980s electronic flavor. Best of all, though, is the Neptunes' take on 'N2gether Now.' lts flowered-up, old-school hip-hop presentation makes it the cheeriest thing ... |

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.
But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.
Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."
