Summary: this cd rocks!!!
Review: Every song in this cd rocks! I don't really appreciate rap, but this band is really good. Maybe a little too much on the explicit lyrics, but otherwise, this cd kicks! I would recommend this cd to all heavy metal or rap fans out there. Limp Bizkit rules!

Summary: Great music and decent lyrics
Review: I spent most of last week listening to 3 Dollar Bill Ya'll. It ended up being one of the best rap CD's I hve ever heard. While in general I hate rap I found this CD keeps your attention with some great bass and guitar solos, something missing from most gangsta rap. Hopefully this isn't Limp Bizkit's last work. Also went to go to see them in concert and was not dissappointed. They sound true to their CD

Summary: This is one of the greatest cd's in the galaxy
Review: Limp Bizkit's CD is a great blend of metal and funky grooves. The band, Fred Durst (vocalist), Wes Borland (guitars), Sam Rivers (bassist) and John Otto (drums) hail from Jacksonville, Florida. Their songs are heavy and their lyrics are deep with a little hip-hop. They are influenced by bands like koRn and the Deftones. Songs like "Stuck", "Counterfeit", and "Nobody Loves Me" will get stuck in your head with their cool beats and Fred's awesome voice. This CD is a MUST for all you rockers out there!

Summary: The only Good bizkit
Review: Before Fred Durst managed to sell out and drag the reputation of Nu Metal with him, Limp Bizkit released this album. While the album isn't terrible like Chocolate Starfish, New Old Songs and Results May Very; 3 Dolor bill isn't that great. The songs Counterfiet and Pollution are actually pretty good, unfortunately Durst turned out to be both of these. Stuck is a song that is fun, but once again nothing special. The rest of the songs fall along these lines except Indigo Flow (it was recorded at Indigo Ranch), all it is Fred thanking everyone who helped get them this far, but its quite pointless. Everything is a song that is over 15 minutes long, is very quiet/boring and you can't make out what is being said. The shotgun effect found on Leech is actually quite funny, that demo is actually pretty cool. But once again I say that this is limp bizkit's only good album. Everything after here was a downward Spiral. This is the only Limp Bizkit Album I ever bought. If you are interesting in what the "good Bizkit" sounded like, just download it. Limp Bizkit will be remembered as Korn's Curse. Korn is one of the only good Nu-metal bands out there. This album is sub par to everything Korn has done.

Summary: COME ON THIS IS THE ULTIMATE LIMP BIZKIT ALBUM
Review: Ok, I understand that alot of people hate "popular" music. Expcially when its a rock band. But you can NOT dis on this album. It has ground breaking lyrics and music. If you look back on this album you look back on it as one of the best if not the best Bizkit album to date. With songs like "counterfit" and "stuck" you gotta hand to it to Limp Bizkit. This is a totally rocking album. Sure alot of you have been saying Bizkit is a sell out ect. ect. but just listen to this album its got to be the best. Yeah I agree "significant other" and "chocolate star fish" are to very simular sounding albums. But this album was differnt. It was underground for a looooooooong time way before Mtv ever played "faith". If your going to rate this album on your hatred for Bizkit you should'nt rate it. Rate it on the music on the lyrics and on something that was new at the time. And looking back on it it is the best album bizkit has. Unless you look at "results may very" that shows that they are finaly progressing in their music and i'm sure their new album they are working on now will be even better. Fred i think has relized that "significant other" and "chocolate star fish" where mistakes and now i'm confident they are taking it to the next level. If you want to hear the real Limp Bizkit buy this album.

Summary: Don't jump on the bandwagon
Review: In the mid-to-late 90's, alternative metal bands found they could make it big by jumping on the rap/rock bandwagon. Soon after, legions of upset metalheads and their wannabe cohorts decided to create a bandwagon of their own--to dis rap/rock, and most notibly, Limp Bizkit and their frontman Fred Durst.

I can understand why so many people hate Fred Durst, but that has little to do with this album. If you aren't into rap/rock at all, this CD isn't for you. But if you don't mind the genre's more talented selections, there isn't a reason to dislike this one. With the exception of the goofy cover of George Michael's "Faith," this is an actually good CD. While it still is HEAVILY rap/rock, you can tell Durst's lyrics are truly heart-felt on this CD. Not until the album "Significant Other" did Fred Durst start churning out dull rap cliches like "N 2 Gether Now," filling songs with too many guest appearances and mentioning his own name repeatedly.

Aside from Limp's later disasters, this CD strikes big with open-minded listeners with songs they can relate to--about breakups like in "Sour," bum friends in "Leech," two-faced people in "Counterfeit," and so on. Yes, the CD seems to center around the general theme of having conflicts with those around him, but each song delivers a different angle on the subject. Unlike the rest of the Bizkit CDs to come, this one offers Sam Rivers' funky hip-hop bass groves that mesh surprisingly well with Wes Borland's contrasting unique metal guitar style, John Otto's heavy rhythmic drumming, and DJ Lethal's sometimes psychedelic spins and samples. The album hits the listener full-forced and straight on, with the exception of the interesting musical interludes between songs and the lenghty acid trip at the end called "Everything," which all add to the dynamics of the disc.

While many bands have banked off--or tried to--the now generic rap/rock formula, Limp Bizkit pulled it off in a way that many other bands (and themselves on later dics) have failed in. Please don't let their lastest works, the single "Faith," or the ever popular Durst-bashing bandwagon steer you away from checking out this diamond-in-the-rough called "Three Dollar Bill, Y'All." If you're open-minded enough to form your own opinion of it, you might find yourself satisfied with another good CD in your rotation.

Summary: Better Than The Other Crap They Sold
Review: Limp Bizkit has sold themselves out after "Significant Other", not this release that no one knew about until they got into the band.

This CD is slightly better, as it is created in 1997 and it is before they became money-hungry sellouts. You hear that? They became sellouts with that "Nookie" song. This CD would have been a lot better if Fred Durst was not involved in the band and instead taking a crappy job that he deserves, such as frying burgers or cleaning bathroom stalls. "Counterfeit" has crushing guitars, but the lyrics just suck, and that George Michael cover of "Faith" has Fred Durst attempting to perform some rhymes at the end, but he just can't rap. Take that queer guy out (see my review for "Chocolate Starfish") and put in a better person, and I'd give this album at least two more stars.

Review: What do you call a fat, middle-aged, washed up, untalented hack with a microscopic weenie??? (if you saw that stupid new sex tape, which was pretty gross, you'll know what I mean)...Give up? You call her Fred Durst..Yes I'm aware that i said "her". Seriously though....wait...I was being serious...anyway..I'd rather listen to a cat getting electrocuted than this album. If this is considered their best albums, I don't even want to know what their worst is. It's not only Fred though, the whole band sucks. The guitarist sucks, almost every band with a DJ is stupid, and I'm sure the other two suck as well...in conclusion, they all suck, especially Phat Fred...sorry..Fat Fred..OK that was lame..but anyway..yeah this band sucks and avoid this album or any other album by this extremely crappy band.

Summary: Horrific, disposable, whiney nu-metal bulls**t
Review: First off, on this site, someone w/the screen name Avril_Lavigne#1fan went off slandering all of these classic albums and discrediting them of their greatness. Not only that, but this person claims that Avril Lavigne's guitarist and bassist is better than Iron Maiden's? It's sheer f**king bulls**t. Avril's crap alongside other s**ty new bands out there just strum power chords and jump around like a buttf**king brady bunch. Iron Maiden and Megadeth both have intricate riffs, complex guitar solos, and intense dueling guitar harmonies. Oh yeah, the measure of greatness of a band doesn't depend on trl, which is run by corporate money hungry sons of b**ches that just care about trends and profit rather than talent. The greatness of a band depends on the originality and distinct style. When you hear Iron Maiden, you know it's them, because they have such a unique style with Bruce's high soaring vocals, Steve Harris' lightning fast plucking and going all over the bass, and its duel guitar attack. When you hear Megadeth, you know it's them because of their extremely fast riffs, snarly vocals, and brutal guitar solos. With bands like Avril Lavigne and Limp Bizkit, there's nothing to them. They don't have a unique sound. They sound like every f**king one else. So in short, this album is pure bulls**t and is NOT, I repeat, NOT the birth of metal.
