Smashing the sophomore jinx, Limp Bizkit puts together a screaming second album in SIGNIFICANT OTHER. The band's songwriting has matured, and the experience of touring is evident in the production. Singer Fred Durst is a frontman for the next millennium, combining hardcore metal with the slickness of hiphop. Limp Bizkit is backed by the turntable skills of House Of Pain's DJ Lethal. You can hear the hiphop influences in almost every track--from the lead single, "Nookie," to the DJ Premier-produced "N 2 Gether Now." Other highlights include "Break Stuff," "Just Like This," and "I'm Broke." Be sure to check out the Durst-directed video for "Nookie," as it shows just how multi-talented Limp Bizkit really is.

Producers: Limp Bizkit, Scott Weiland, Terry Date, D.J. Premier.Rolling Stone (7/8-22, pp.143-144) - 3 1/2 Stars (out of 5) - "...at this point, hating them seems a little disingenuous. They're actually (gulp) good." Entertainment Weekly (6/18/99, pp.74-75) - "...It takes it cues from hardcore hip-hop...grunge...the post-80's metal of Metallica, and, to a lesser degree, electronica....But overall, SIGNIFICANT OTHER isn't simply modern rock; it's postmodern rock..." - Rating: B CMJ (6/28/99, p.5) - "...[SIGNIFICANT OTHER] has an intensity that never lets up, surpassing the musical scope of its predecessor with rap-core gems such as "Nookie" and the blunted hip-hop of..."N 2 Gether Now"....The unholy matrimony of metal and rap celebrates another victory...superb..."
Just wish some songs were as good as the cover art... Limp Bizkit really knows how to make good music, but I never feel it in some songs. "Nookie", "Re-Arranged" & "Break Stuff" was probably the best songs, but something was missing. It wasn't as good as Three Dollar Bill, Y'all, but it makes a good addition to my collection.

One of the greatest albums ever!! This album is unbelievable. I bought it the day it came out 8 years ago. I still listen to it quite often. Limp Bizkit is a huge part of modern day rock,mixing hardcore with rap. If you hadn't heard it,listen to it. I love this album. Submitted by Chuck (Arnold,NE) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
if you don't like the view, STAY OUT OF MY GENERATION! Man, all you guys out there hating on Fred, you, are, pathetic. if you don't like him so much then don't listen to the stuff he comes up with. THis CD is very deep and one of their best. I admit they have some stupid stuff but this album really shines. It's one of those rare ones that you can put in your CD player and just listen without skipping any tracks
Buy it, give it a shot, if you don't like it sell it to someone who will. NOOOOOKIE!! Submitted by the_jokers_smile (Canada Baby, Canada) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
Classic As its offically now cool to hate limpbizkit, people don't realise the depth in this record. If people actually bothered to listen to each song, before opening their mouths, you will find this cd to be very good. Submitted by signsofdisorder (Cambridge, UK) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
