Limp Bizkit (alternately written as limpbizkit) is a Nu metal band from Jacksonville, Florida.
They are often credited, along with their discoverers Korn, for creating the nu metal genre and starting to widen its popularity[citation needed]. Limp Bizkit was very popular during the late 1990s and early 2000s, and their albums have sold over 50 million copies worldwide.
Limp Bizkit's current members are vocalist Fred Durst, bassist Sam Rivers, drummer John Otto (Rivers' cousin), and Latvian turntablist/sampler player DJ Lethal. The band's guitarist Wes Borland departed in 2001 following the release of their first three albums to be replaced by Mike Smith for the band's fourth release Results May Vary. Wes rejoined for The Unquestionable Truth only to quit once again in 2006 to work with other projects Black Light Burns and From First to Last.
