Editorial Reviews

The splicing together of nu metal, rap, funk, and sterile electronica laced with dark melodies as infectious as anything Britney has to offer, inspired 6 million people to purchase copies of Limp Bizkit's Significant Other. With Chocolate Starfish, they perfect their formula. From the electro-infused "Intro" through the contagiously chugging "My Generation" to the straight-up rap of "Getcha Groove On," Chocolate Starfish is a slick, clinical, and flawless platform for Fred Durst's effortlessly savage--and occasionally unintentionally comic--sociological rants geared toward disaffected youth. Ultimately, though, it's that undeniably intelligent musical backdrop--the brooding guitar sound that gave the Mission Impossible 2 theme haunting new life and menace, and that defines "Hot Dog," "Full Nelson," "My Way," "Rollin'," "Boiler," and "It'll Be Okay"--that makes this a seething work of genius. The fact is, with rap and rock saying pretty much the same thing, Limp Bizkit have plenty of competition. They just do what they do better than everyone else. --Dan Gennoe

Lay off the cussing?
Overall, this album was a good one. However, I was slightly disappointed about how little Limp Bizkit has changed.
Now, call me crazy, but I thought LB was going to soften up a bit. Comparing "3 Dollar Bill, Y'all$" to "Significant Other", it seemed that Limp had made a drastic change. There were more melodic songs, some better rhymes, and meanings behind the songs. I noticed that the amount of profane language increased a tad, however. And to tell you the truth, I wasn't very happy. But I say, what the heck? It's a good album.
No matter how many times Fred would say the "F" word in "Significant Other", nothing would change my mind about Limp Bizkit changing. I expected A LOT more melodies, some good rhymes, and a lot less language...
Okay, the melodies were good. Yes, the ryhmes were excellent. But I was absolutely stupified when i heard "Hot Dog". He say the mother of all cusses, what, 48 times? I suppose the next Bizkit (if there is one) will be worse.
This was a great CD, but can't we lay off the cussing?
p.s. to whoever wrote the review saying "Rollin' (UAV)" is the best song: Xzibit isn't in it...he's in "Getcha Groove On"
should be 0 stars
This album is bad. Limp is angry, but they have nothing to be angry over. Fred cant rap, he cant sing, and he can't write anything intelligent. The only reason anybody buys this is because it somehow got popular. Shallow people like dumb jocks with low intelligence might enjoy this album. If you want a real rap/metal band get some of the older rage albums. And oh, zack de la rocha's rapping skills is superior to fred durst's.
Limp's Best yet
After hearing Hot Dog for the first time, I was afraid that the rest of the CD would be equally as bad as that endless cursing. I decided to buy it after hearing "Hold on", a song completely different than all of limp's prevoius singles. "Hold on" and the other songs on this album demonstrate the many styles of music that Limp Bizkit can perform amazingly. From the hard, loud rock they are so well known for (My Generation, Rollin) to Hip Hop (Getcha groove on) to the slower rock you might not expect from them. (Hold On, Boiler, It'll Be ok) The song "The One" has to be the best song on this CD. IMHO, this CD is a lot stronger than significant other.
