When you run out of money, you have to put aside your differences and make more shitty music- Creed, Blink 182 and now Limp Bizkit....what a summer we are in for!
Limp Bizkit have announced that they are reforming with the original band line-up for the first time in eight years.
Fred Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto and DJ Lethal have joined forces once again to tour and record a new album. Guitarist Borland, who left the band in 2001 and returned briefly only to leave again in 2006, has apparently resolved differences with his bandmates.
"We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other," Durst and Borland said in a joint statement.
"Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else. This is why Limp Bizkit is back."
Limp Bizkit will kick off a world tour in the spring, hitting the European festival circuit. They will also play their first-ever shows in Russia. Tour dates will soon be announced on the band's new website Limpbizkit.com.
They also intend to begin recording a new album.

The rumored Robert Plant-less Led Zeppelin tour might spawn another unexpected reunion. With Alter Bridge singer Myles Kennedy in the running to take over Plant’s duties, his bandmates will reportedly reconnect with singer Scott Stapp to reform Creed, which disbanded back in 2004.
According to reports, “significant dollars” are on the table for a proposed Creed reunion tour. However, a spokesperson says “There have been some talks, but it would be premature to comment on them at this time.” Since their breakup, Creed’s guitarist, bassist and drummer put out two albums as Alter Bridge with Kennedy, while Stapp released a solo record in 2005. If the reunion should happen, and sources say an announcement is “imminent,” a tour will likely follow in 2009, meaning that America will have to carry the heavy burden of both Creed and Nickelback touring the nation at the same time.
