Take a Bow: Outside the Top 10, Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek’s Reflection Eternal bows the highest, selling more than 58,000 copies at No. And rounding things off is 3 Doors Down’s The Better Life, selling yet another 90,000 copies. Behind that is 98 Degrees’ Revelation, which sells 93,000, and Madonna’s Music, which sells 92,000. Mystikal’s Let’s Get Ready has quietly remained a strong seller, moving another 110,000 unites at No. 6, selling another 118,000 copies as the title track rattles through sports stadiums around the world.
5, selling yet another 118,000 copies.Ī good anthem never hurt anyone, especially the Baha Men and their album Who Let the Dogs Out, which has climbed all the way to No. 4 with impressive sales of more than 133,000. He’s followed by Ludacris’ Back for the First Time, which bows at No. 3, for an astonishing total of more than 3.3 million for the year. Nelly’s Country Grammar sells more than 148,000 copies at No. Not a bad showing, but the difference between the top two albums is more than 850,000 copies. The Rest of the Best: A week ago, Ja Rule’s Rule 3:36 ruled the charts. Looks like Fred Durst knows who his generation is after all. In fact, the Bizkit’s album becomes the first rock record ever to sell a million copies in a single week. 1, and breaking Pearl Jam’s single-week rock sales record. 25, 2000 - Rock the Charts: You knew it’d be on top this week.Īccording to SoundScan’s figures, Limp Bizkit sold 1,054,511 copies of its third album, Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water, in its first week on the shelves, landing it squarely at No.
The cover of George Michael’s Faith is goofy, yeah, but it still rocks. Pollution and Leech are the angriest, filthiest ditties Bizkit ever recorded, setting the scene for their Ross Robinson-produced debut. It’s not got Chocolate Starfish’s silly swagger or singles, but Three Dollar Bill, Y’all$ makes up for that in sheer fucking venom.
BEST LIMP BIZKIT ALBUM CODE
Between poking fun at haters ( Love The Hate), schmaltzy pop cover Don't Change (originally by INXS) and the decidedly club metal flavoured Barnacle (the perfect song for a year that saw Code Orange drop Out For Blood), Still Sucks managed to be everything we expected of a new Limp Bizkit album whilst simultaneously surpassing all expectations. Ultimately none of this ever came to fruition, with singles Ready To Go, Endless Slaughter and Ministry cover Thieves not making the final cut when the album - now titled Still Sucks - was surprise-released on Halloween 2021.ĭad Vibes (and Durst's bizarre new look) might have acknowledged the passage of time, but Limp Bizkit hadn't matured in the intervening decade between releases, still toeing the line between daft and irreverence like the 2000s never left.
BEST LIMP BIZKIT ALBUM FULL
Coming a full decade after Gold Cobra, Bizkit had teased material for their upcoming album several times over the years, suggesting the title was set as Stampede Of The Disco Elephants and would see them reunite with nu metal production king Ross Robison. It makes perfect sense that Limp Bizkit's long-awaited sixth album should arrive amidst the stirrings of a nu metal revival. The hits still rule – even a guy in a Darkthrone hoodie knows Break Stuff – and the Jonathan Davis/ Scott Weiland guest spots on Nobody Like You have aged gloriously. The ‘ Realised that I’m worth more than that’ in No Sex is essentially Stacy’s Mom by Fountains Of Wayne but 10 times better, Don’t Go Off Wandering’s got gorgeous strings courtesy of Borland’s brother Scott and the nasty, full-frontal riffing of I’m Broke is an unused gem from Three Dollar Bill, Y’all$. The Durst-isms came thick and fast, our red-capped hero saying “yeah!” and “bab-eh!” instead of rapping, enlisting Method Man to take care of that on N 2 Gether Now. Taking Three Dollar Bill$, Y’all’s abrasive racket and mollycoddling/expanding it (delete as appropriate to your bitterness), Bizkit transformed into a juggernaut.
