Checks out. I lived through those times and see the same trend. Fuck that band was intolerable.
Fred Durst isn't a bad singer, he did a pretty good cover of behind blue eyes. Looking at reviews it wasn't super popular but I thought it was decent.
Durst is a phenominal hardcore vocalist and I've been on this kick for decades.
"Pollution" off their first record.
Quick, fast, he enunciates enough through vocal fries and you can still make him out through the chorus. His clean vocals work for their slower, hazier tracks.
Is he the best? lol, no, that's Corey Brandan from Norma Jean.
The only problem is that they became a NuMetal band instead of a hardcore metal band, but that's more me being selfish for my own taste. I still like Limp. They make fun metal and they're good at it.
I feel like they used a lot of help from ProTools to make him some better on that one, though. Since there want really auto tune back then.
There absolutely was autotune back then. Cher's Believe was the song that kickstarted the plugin's popularity and that song came out in 1998. Autotune itself came out the year before.
I disagree wholeheartedly. Have you listened to the original song? Because that's also what I thought before hearing the original and honestly they're not even close.
