Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Rap metal has been around ever since 1986 when Run-DMC and Aerosmith joined forces for a remake of "Walk This Way", but it took nearly a decade for Rage Against the Machine to bust the floodgates wide open. Soon after, a stream of percussive hellraisers including Korn, Downset, and Deftones infiltrated the metal market, and they, in turn, sired a new breed fronted by acts like Snot and Limp Bizkit. Three Dollar Bill Y'All, Limp Bizkit's debut album, is a tempestuous collection of divergent styles. Unlike metal acts that try to get "dope", but lack the hip-hop background to legitimately fuse the two genres, Limp Bizkit--which features Wes Borland and House of Pain member DJ Lethal--have the know-how to groove and grind. And instead of launching a one-dimensional Blitzkrieg, Limp Bizkit mixes up its rhythms and tempos to keep its listeners guessing. --Jon Wiederhorn

I would give this album 6 stars if I could. This is definitely Limp Bizkit's best offering and it probably won't be beaten EVER. Go and buy this NOW. 3 Dollar bill is punk/thrash/metal/angst at it's greatest. Less smooth and refined than Significant other but much much greater in sheer energy and enthusiasm, this is the album that Limp Bizkit produced before they 'sold out' to MTV and Fred Durst's sometimes comical and ironic screaming and middle-class angst-ridden vocals have been lost in later albums. The most famous song from this album is Limp's cover of George Michael's 'Faith' but the stand-out track for me is definitly the opening track 'Pollution.' Look out for the high octane screams of 'Bring that beat back!!' half-way through the track and the extremely funny ending which sees Fred continuing to scream out his vocals after the band has finished playing, and eventually being told to 'shut the fuck up!!' It will have you doubled up with laughter. You will be amazed by this album, I have no idea why some reviewers gave this album 4 or even 3 stars, but they are clearly wrong. This album R.O.C.K.S

This album is great, from the Intro the the way it pulls into the heavy song Pollution straight after it like it is added in the same song.
Amazing album. The hardest Limp bizkit Album out there so if you hate Chocolate Starfish then buy this album.

Chocolate Starfish, and significant other are classics, But this takes the Bizkit. The best album by far with their best song on it.COUNTERFEIT is the highlight of the album closely followed by FAITH. If you like MY GENERATION and ROLLIN, buy this and you'll see what I mean.

Solid Bizkit
This is a great album. So much better than the chocolate starfish rubbish they have fed us. Please, Limp, grow a pair and make another album like this.

Where it all began...
This is the album that most people who just started liking Limp Bizkit didn't even know about. Yet many of Limp's most hardcore fans believe this to be the best album they've made. Read more
