Going back and listening to this album in its entirety in 2017 I actually quite like it. It's good that it doesn't sound like Nookie. It shows a more mature band with more melodies, softer vocals instead of the harsh angry party screaming, and the songs altogether are easier to listen to; they aren't an assault to the ears. It's Limp Bizkit heading off in a new direction and experimenting as artists instead of staying stagnant. I'd be willing to bet that Aaron Lewis may have had an influence on this album's production.… Expand

We suggest that those critics should become independent from the Record Companies. Its ok monopolizing CD Sales etc but to monopolise what talent is, is detrimental to the industry.… Expand

    Often renowned as Limp Bizkit's worst piece of work (keeping in mind that a lot of critics denounce every piece of work done by Limp Bizkit in what is one of the worst cases of a band being subject to unfair bias due to factors that have nothing to do with the actual music at all), Results May Vary has often been seen as the album that completely derailed Limp Bizkit's position as aOften renowned as Limp Bizkit's worst piece of work (keeping in mind that a lot of critics denounce every piece of work done by Limp Bizkit in what is one of the worst cases of a band being subject to unfair bias due to factors that have nothing to do with the actual music at all), Results May Vary has often been seen as the album that completely derailed Limp Bizkit's position as a mainstream Nu-Metal band. Much of this infamy and drop in musical quality can be attributed to the temporary departure of Wes Borland for this record, whom had left the band for a short period due to personal conflict with other members of the group , and as a result saw Bizkit going out on a limb with the absence of one of its main writers and its most talented musician.

    When listening to Results May Vary it becomes obvious that Bizkit's sound has been effected greatly by this change and saw a great variety of sounds being implemented with little consistency or sense of direction; following up a very familiar and Limp-style opening on Re-Entry with screeching guitars and searing vocals on what has to be Bizkit's heaviest track of all time: Eat You Alive, though this turn doesn't hold throughout the rest of the rest of the record and the only other song on the record to even come close to matching its aggression being: Head for the Barricade, which is catchy but nowhere near as memorable. Most of the other songs on the record see Bizkit take more of an alternative approach to the metal sound with songs such as Build a Bridge and Underneath the Gun packing little punch and coming across as incredibly formulaic. The album's worst is a pointless and forgettable cover of The Who's Behind Blue Eyes, one of Bizkit's worst pieces to date.

    Despite this negativity however there are elements of Bizkity goodness spread throughout the record, with several enjoyable intervals such as Take it Home providing small periods of laid-back enjoyment whilst the track: Red-Light Green-Light sees a catchy and fun collaboration between Bizkit and Snoop Dogg in an amusing lyrical trade-off.

    Overall the criticism levied at this album in particular can indeed be justified: it's inconsistent and fails to pack a punch in multiple aspects, thanks mainly to the lack of Bizkit's greatest feature: Wes Borland and his experimental style. Despite the fact that it indeed lives up to the title of being Bizkit's worst record there are several moments of enjoyment to be had and it deserves at least a listen or two if only to be appreciated as a reminder of the downfall of mainstream Nu-Metal.    … Expand

This is clearly evident in this "album." I quoted album because I'm not quite sure it's the right word to describe this collection of noise. Toxic sounds or mathematically formulated wavelengths designed kill brain cells are better ways of describing this cornucopia of audio pain. Hardcore Limp Bizkit fans may enjoy this, but even they will probably find most of the tacks generic and boring. Limp Bizkit's unique blend of metal, rap, funk and alt metal is not present in this "album." Instead we are treated with nu metal that comes across as blander than a week old bowl of oatmeal. While listening to this I felt like I was being eaten alive by an all encompassing creature designed by the most cookie cutter music producers of L.A. I think Limp Bizkit needs some sort of re-entry in sound because whatever they have been doing the past decade has not been working. The whole time I was listening to this I was wishing it was almost over. If I hear any of these "tracks" in my car it is proof that radio is dead. I rather drown in white noise that is most of Nickelback's hits than listen to this.… Expand

Now, it's not lord mercilessly awful like the critics and the "hatas" would have you beleive. Let's start with the bad: The insipid autobiographical "Almost Over" has such hilarious contradictions as "took alot of crap as a little boy, learned how to rap as a little boy" and "I'm singing in the rain as an older man" coming from an MC who just cleverly rhymed "rap" with "crap" and a bold optimistic lyricist who spent his past three albums complaining about his girlfriend. "Gimme the Mic" and "Phenomenon" are so outlandishly overblown that they make the late 80's Beastie Boys claims of lyrical dopeness seem like accurate representations of hardened gangsta veterans, and that was shtick! Fred expects us to take boasts like "baggie jeans and a bottle of crack hits" seriously! The ballads (which take up a large chunk of the album)are for the most part woefully trite, with the exception of the genuinely pretty "Down Another Day", and when they're not generic, they're self-indulgent and bitter. If that doesn't make you tap the skip button fast enough, the Snoop Dog collaboration, "Red Light Green Light" is vapid, bland, and just plain lame-o. (wipes sweat off forehead) Okay, but amidst all these debacles, there is a fair amount of Bizkity goodness to partly compensate. "Eat you Alive" and "Re-Entry" have ham-fisted, thunderously catchy riffs balanced with pretty melodic bits. It's a reminder that under all the teen-angst and occasionally awful writing, the Bizkit really do know what they're doing, and there's some genius behind the jock. "Creamer" and "Lonely World" have desolate, Linkin Park style electronic gawthic pop beats, that you can dance to and sulk to at the same time. Plus, the rapping is a few notches above Mike Shinoda. "Head for the Barricade" has a tribal war-chant drum beat that works wonderfully, and the songs nu-metal ingenius climax would inspire riotous moshing, as would the clever riff trickery of "The Only One" And that's pretty much the whole sha-bang. About 5 or 6 really good songs on a 16 track album with the rest ranging from mostly mediocre to laughable. Still, Limp Bizkit isn't the worst of Nu Metal's evils, they're just the most renown. If Fred didn't stir up so much annoying controversy here and there, and the Bizkit weren't once the biggest, most arrogant band in the world, the critics would probably grant this comfortably mediocre album in the 50-60 range along with Linkin Park. This Bizkit may be a bit soggy, but focus your hatred on nu metal bands like Crossfade, Seether, Evenescance, and P.O.D, as they're what you should be worrying about.… Expand

    Limp Bizkit is now like a dog who was just neutered and had its teeth kicked in . The edge and energy they had in their first 2 albums are but a thing of the past. The whiny nu-metal kids raised on Staind, Linkin Park, and most of the crappy bands today like that will probably like it (and are rabidly apparent in their reviews), but old school fans and just about everyone else need not apply.

    I'm a fan of Bizkit's previous album, but I have to agree that this is bad. The problem here is that this isn't really a Limp Bizkit album. The majority of it sounds like the work of a sub-par and overly emotional alternative rock band. When I listen to Limp Bizkit I am doing it in order to just rock out, not listen to Fred Durst slow things down in order to sing about his feelings.

    The first three tracks, along with "Head for the Barricade,"carry the same loud and heavy style that I want to hear from this band, and that makes me wonder what happened with the rest of the album. It is honestly like another band did the rest of the songs, and did a crappy job at that. I'm sure there are some Limp Bizkit fans who will appreciate hearing the band display a softer side of sorts, and this different style might even attract new fans or make the haters think twice, but I know all it did was alienate me.

    This is just a bad album, Limp Bizkit or otherwise. Truly I feel it deserves all of the negative attention and reviews it has got. It just isn't Limp Bizkit. Because of that I didn't enjoy the vast majority of it at all. I give it a 4.5/10-Bad.    … Expand

    Without even a shred of socially redeeming value. Fred has to be the whiniest, most self-absorbed "rock star" ever. Must be cause he's bald as a baby's bottom. Give it a rest already. NOONE CARES.

I must say the only songs I'm not crazy about are 'Behind blue eyes', only cause it's a remake of a classic, and 'Red light green light', which the main rap song on the whole cd. It is a little monotonous, but whatever. And the fact they have short good music song sequences after songs, for people who hate the cd, don't even know these songs exists. It's like a treat for putting through the worst songs on the cd, coincidentally 'Behind Blue Eyes' and 'Red light green light'. But all in all, the cd is awesome.

That is saying something with nothing to back it up, just like I can tell you that I can eat an apple and shit out a fruit salad. People, especially people with bad taste, like to say a lot of meaningless things. It does not make them right, nor does it mean we should take them seriously. People who actually know what they are talking about, you know, people with good taste, intelligent people, etc... they have all gotten together and guess what?

Hopefully this is the death knell for Angry White Boy rock, nu metal, rap rock, or however you want to describe it. This is the epitomy of soulless, whining narcissicm.
