I mean, to be fair, the Top 40 is mostly shit nowadays, but those were dark times.

kid a was made i dunno maybe

I (and many other people on Sup Forums) will have grown up during that time period, and I can only agree.

2011 - 2016

"le wrong generation" me all you want, I can not name a single album from these years I still listened to after 4-5 months.

It was fun :~)

KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN

Alright partner, keep on rollin' baby, you know what time it is
(throw your hands up, throw your hands up, throw your hands up)
Ladies and Gentlemen, Chocolate starfish, keep on rollin' baby

[CHORUS]
Move in, now move out
Hands up, hands down
Back up, back up
Tell me what ya gonna do now
Breathe in, now breathe out
Hands up, now hands down
Back up, back up
Tell me what ya gonna do now

Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' (what)
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' (come on)
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' (yeah)
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin'
[/CHORUS]

Now I know y'all be lovin this shit right here
L-I-M-P Bizkit is right here
People in the house put them hands in the air
Cause if you don't care, then we don't care
1, 2, 3 times two to the six
Jonesin' for your fix
Of that limp bizkit mix
So where the fuck you at punk
Shut the fuck up, and back the fuck up
While we fuck this track up

(CHORUS)

You wanna mess with limp bizkit (yeah)
You can't mess with limp bizkit (why)
Because we get it on(when)
Every day and every night (oh)
And this platinum thing right here (uh, huh)
Yo, we're doin it all the time (what)
So you better get some betta beats and uh, some better rhymes (doh)

We got the gang set, so don't complain yet
Twenty four seven, never begging for a rain check
Old school soldiers, blastin' out the hot shit
That rock shit, putting bounce in the mosh pit

(CHORUS)

Hey ladies, hey fellas
And the people that don't give a fuck
All the lovers, all the haters,
and all the people that call themselves players
Hot mamas, pimp daddies
And the people rollin' up in caddies
Hey rockers, hip hoppers
And everybody all around the world

(CHORUS)

(CHORUS)

yes

...

shit went hard back then

Limp Bizkit was not a bad band. I don't know where people get this meme from. Three dollar Bill Yall is better than half of the Sup Forumscore out there.

>Limp Bizkit was not a bad band
sk8er boi detected

Rollin is fun af

>he didn't even listen to the two tracks I posted

>Three dollar Bill
Released in 1997

it spawned the greatest album of all time though

Significant Other is better than half of Sup Forumscore too, though it's slightly less quality than three dollar bills

>Significant Other is better than half of Sup Forumscore too

well now you're just making shit up

I heard enough of them back in the day.
Fred just whines throughout the track with terrible rhymes.
The faggot with the contacts just randomly adds those shitty record scratches that every ""alternative"" band was adding at the time.
The guitar alternates between simplistic melodies and HARDCORE wall of sound choruses.

There are no bad time periods. Just stand out bands and albums that make it look bad.

The goat pop song my dudes
youtube.com/watch?v=E1fzJ_AYajA

Oh also forgot that fred constantly has every other line sung in conjunction with backup singer fred.

>1998 to 2002
>5 years
damn millennials can't even do basic math baka

Kys.

Also, GKMC.

>significant other being worse than grimes, yeezus, and half of death grips' material

>simplistic melodies

You're making stuff up youtube.com/watch?v=_pvOGlNrfhI at 2:03

1998 to 2002 means begginning 1998 to the end of 2001

my favorite band!

Add me!!

You both listen to Glassjaw, Deftones and The Strokes.

user dislikes fun confirmed.

Fine, next time I make a year range I'll post it [1998,2002] so pedantic fucks like like you don't intentionally misinterpret it.

>Being 36 years old or older

don't you mean 35?

i don't even hate it it was just so overplayed on the radio i was changing the dial from one station to another and both stations were playing it because at the time we had 2 rock radio channels that played exactly the same music minutes apart, despite being completely different unrelated companies.

though in retrospect they might have both been clearchannel

[1998, 2002] would still exclude 2002
[1998, 2003] would be the way to go...
If you're gonna use interval notation do it right :)

That's literally just two guitar tracks on top of each other with some feedback in the background to make it sound like more is happening than it is.
A trick of editing, because Limp Bizkit had the best audio engineers in the industry working for them at the time.

>[1998, 2002] would still exclude 2002
No, no it wouldn't. You're thinking of [1998, 2002)
If you're gonna be pedantic then do it right :^)

Someone born December 31, 1979 would be 36 years old now.

Don't bands like Radiohead also heavily edit their sound like that?

Also I don't think LB heavily edited their sound on their debut.

I would gladly say you took the bait but sadly it wasn't bait... should I kill myself?

nah m8, if it was an honest mistake its cool

Ahh, my bad. Sorry about that user. It was probably clear channel.

thx m8 u saved my loife

1998 was the year of The Prodigys best album

youtube.com/watch?v=FPoKiGQzbSQ

Nah man.
Also I thought about it and your interval notation point was kinda correct, in that the correct notation would be [1998, 2003), so neither of us was correct.

>Implying the greatest album of all time wasn't released in 2016

win win :^)

1998 was the year I couldn't turn on the radio without hearing this every 5 minutes.

why is there a millipede in the music video
millipedes eat damp leaves
they're not edgy at all

significant other was one of the first albums that I bought with my own money and I fucking loved it from front to back. I'd listen to it straight through without skipping and I'd just started playing guitar so, for some reason, wes borland was my idol. My msn name was TONGUE OF CALICAB or something stupid like that that Wes used to use.

Then Chocolate Starfish came out and I spent my own money on it again and I've never felt more betrayed in my life.

the only good song on CS is Boiler, though. I still fucking love that song.

That song was released in 2004 lol

its always staggering to know that The Prodigy was the first ever electronic group to reach super star status. The ones who made electronic mainstream

I legitimately cannot see what makes this worse than current pop music
Also
>listening to pop
Literally kill yourself, I mean it from the bottom of my heart

So have you ever checked out their debut? It's the same style as significant other but not in the pop format.

Radiohead is good though.
Limp Bizkit of that era is just audio engineers making it "good enough" to sell copies once it comes out.

actually, yeah. Loved that one when I was even younger. I love going back to it now that I can actually play guitar and watch youtube clips and shit of Wes' riffs - he wasn't amazing, but on a few tracks, he played differently than any other nu-metal guitarist was at that time.

their debut loses me near the end, though

There are people on Sup Forums who like kanye and grimes

Let that sink in for a little

itt: kids that literally think they are better than others

>radiohead is good though

were

they haven't made a truly good album since Amnesiac.

I just like their style man, they had a cool style. I don't know what else to say without making myself sound like an idiot, their first two albums had a cool style that nobody else has really done.

holy shit this brings me so much memories
when i was 9 or 10 and this played on the radio all the time
*sobs*

but Prodigy is good...well it was

No one actually likes kanye, it's a forced meme, people liking grimes is pretty pathetic though

*1997-2001

2002 was a great year.

it wasnt? Chocolate starfish came out in 2000 and Rollin was on it

Actually I imagine that most of the people that hate the period of music in the OP were ~10-15 at that time (and so are and part of the reason they hate that music of that period of time (in addition to it being complete shit) is because when they think of music from that time they remember what complete faggots they were (because 99% of people are insufferable faggots when they're that old.)

if you watch interviews with bands from that time you'll realize pretty much 99% of that music was completely meth fueled

honestly this, especially if you listen to rock

le wrong generation indeed

wow i forgot about this song... it's actually pretty good desu

Godsmack, a band that tried so hard to rip off another band that they even named themselves after one of their songs.

youtube.com/watch?v=VF8LMQQ0rEw

both versions of this song are great but this one's catchier and the video is awesome

>On September 10, 2001 (one day before the Twin Towers were destroyed in a terrorist attack), Limp Bizkit received a letter from the World Trade Center, thanking them for featuring the towers in the video.

i'm sorry that you don't like to have a bit of stupid fun every now and again... and there's actually a lot of really good underground pop out there. dream pop, ambient pop, and twee pop are some damn good genres

this my AOTY for 2000

this masterpiece was made

Nu-metal was a ginormous mistake.

[spoiler] I unironically love this album and their previous one though [/spoiler]

>"Rollin'" video received the award for Best Rock Video at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.

Yes. 2012-2016
Pop music my have been shit in 98-02, but it was at least fun.

slipknot is also my guilty pleasure

what do you like about them?

1998 Death: The Sound of Perseverance
1999 Opeth: Still Life
2000 System of a Down: Toxicity
2002 Immortal: Sons of Northern Darkness
2002 Nile: In Their Darkened Shrines
2002 Queens of the Stone Age: Songs for the Deaf

2004 to like 2009 was pretty horrible

MTV stopped being relevant in the mid 90s

what happened in 2003 that suddenly made things better?

They energy they put into their music, how the extra drums add to the mix, the interesting progression of songs on MFKR that appeared whole or in parts on later albums, the odd yet interesting funk metal sections of MFKR. Probably rose tinted goggles too.

how do you feel about that limp bizkit album that was the first one they made when wes borland returned to the band?

>1998-2002
>Popular Music
>White Pony
>Lateralus
>Mer de Noms
>The Fragile
I reject your claim

If you look at their discography objectively, Gold Cobra is probably their best after $3.

What's up with all these deleted posts?

what's the best song on it?

Title track & "Bring it Back" with "Shotgun" being good in that retarded old style.

They just gave the awards to anyone that would actually show up, and had a popular hit.

2011 - 2016

OK Computer, Soft Bulletin, AND Californication all came out in 1999. I'd hardly call that a bad record.
