But after the release of the album they left Interscope and In 2012 Limp Bizkit made an even bigger step towards reviving their career by signing to Baby\u2019s (Birdman) record label, Cash Money.<\/p>\n<p>On March 3rd at Soundwave Festival in Australia, they performed their new single featuring Lil Wayne \u2018Ready To Go\u2019, although this song has not been released officially, nor given an official release date. It is expected in the next few months. \u2018The Unquestionable Truth (Part 2)\u2019 and \u2018Stampede of the Disco Elephants\u2019\u00a0are two albums they are looking to bring out\u00a0in 2012 under their new label.<\/p>\n<p>In the early years of their music career they stamped their authority on the industry by creating a legacy of albums which cover different genres; at this time Durst wanted Limp Bizkit to be a \u2018Megaband\u2019. From this, the Nu Metal genre was born in the US in the early 1990s. Nu Metal combined elements of heavy metal with other genres, including Grunge and Hip-Hop.<\/p>\n<p>However, we are all very unsure about what to expect from their new albums and whether they\u2019ll express a more rap element due to singing for the rap record label. Fred Durst has already\u00a0said that\u00a0the next album will be \u201cthe heaviest, most crazy metal record\u201d. We will have to wait and see.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After five years of being away from the music industry, Fred Durst and band Limp Bizkit returned in 2011 with the album Gold Cobra under record label Interscope, which reached &#8230; <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/?p=5333\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[140],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5333","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-opinion"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5333","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5333"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5333\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13561,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5333\/revisions\/13561"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5333"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5333"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rockhaq.com\/1546951672250\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5333"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
