One of the things that was confusing about Limp Bizkit to some people is that our tastes were very different.

There's some people who are not understanding what Limp Bizkit is about. But, then again, who am I to tell people what they can use art for or how they can interpret it?

I wouldn't support Limp Bizkit being on some snuff backyard brawling, fighting contest.

I loved the Cure and Bauhaus and the Smiths. The people in my town weren't privy to that kind of music and I got abused. I discovered the microphone to get out some of that angst.

I do think that some bands seem to be dabbling in the rock-hip-hop world and are not necessarily serious about it.

When Wes came back to Limp Bizkit, we really wanted to do something different. We wanted to make a core record that we didn't care who liked or who disliked.
