Hmm, insightful.


Anyway, what's the hold up with this thing? I listened to part of one song they put on youtube - forget the name - and it actually sounded quite good. I think I might actually buy the album when/if it comes out....

Apparently Gene Simmons has recorded the intro for Gold Cobra, and it will be released in early 2011.

Fred Durst Lets Fans Into The Recording Process

By Tim Cashmere
Thu, 25 Nov 2010

Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit gave fans a little window into his recording of the next Bizkit album ?Gold Cobra?.

During the stream he played non-album tracks, although the songs seemed fairly complete. He referred to one as an ?interlude?, despite having four verses (the last of which pay out on fellow 90s nu-metal band Puddle of Mudd - a relevant rivalry in 2011 if ever there was one ).
 
?Here is some crazy interlude shit. You?re probably not going to be able to comprehend it, but if you listen close in the fourth verse there is some very profound shit about someone you know,? he said before playing the interlude in reference to Puddle of Mudd. Fans in the chat room picked it up, but for those who missed it he proudly said after the track ?Fuckin? up the Puddle Of Mudd motherfucker right there!?
 
He also played a track with Wu-Tang Clan?s Raekwon. ?You guys might not be able to handle it because it?s not rock shit. It?s some fuckin? cock your fuckin? gun shit,? he said before playing the track. Durst seemed especially proud of Raekwon?s line in the track ?Anything Rae says goes, Limp Bizkit?s [the?] shit.?
 
Durst confirmed (and played) the intro to the album, which was written by Durst and spoken by Gene Simmons.
 
?The oh so elegant Gold Cobra,? Simmons says. ?Shimmering venomously with beauty and grace as it slithers along it?s path to inevitable chaos. Whomever falls prey to this seductive serpent shall be forever scarred.?
 
Although the band only have one album planned for 2011, Durst said ?What I?m thinking is I want to do a Gold Cobra party record, then a Gold Cobra pain record.?
 
?59 songs and only 11 are on the Cobra,? he admitted. So who knows if any of these will ever see the light of day?
 
Australian fans can rest easy though, after a few from down under kept flooding the chat room with calls for him to come visit he responded with ?Australia! I get it I?m coming to Australia! Stop sayin? that shit, it?s fuckin? spam at this point.?
 
Aside from the songs, we heard Durst say such gems as ?I used to write words, I used to write it down, but like Lil? Wayne I?m like ?Why am I gonna write the motherfucker down?? I?m gonna let it flow off my head. That?s the best way to capture this shit.? after recording some new lines.
 
The untitled song that he was recording featured lines ?Let?s hit the club, round up ho?s and give ?em love, raise our hands to the skies above, shine like Michael Jackson?s glove,? with some more references to Nirvana thrown in for good measure and the chorus went ?Say hello to my little friend/We gonna need ourselves a bigger boat/frankly my dear I don?t give a damn/and I?m gonna rock till we up in smoke.?
 
?Cypress Hill, you?d better believe it. A lot of influence from Cypress Hill on that one,? he said to the camera after a take.
 
This window into Durst?s life is a tantalising peek at the band?s upcoming album ?The Gold Cobra?. The question is, does anyone other than the 400ish viewers care anymore? Time will tell.

Fred Durst appeared on Tom Green's web cast and answered fan questions on Dec. 10th.  On Gold Cobra's release he says "Gold Cobra is gonna come out pretty soon on my gauge."

That sounds very much like a euphemism....

But sounds like they haven't forgotten about I guess.

[FunkyMonkey]

Limp Bizkit Gold Cobra should be mixed and ready to press by the end of February.

The Ole So Venomous Gold Cobra

Posted by FredDurst on 2/10/2011

As we head towards the end of February 2011 the realities of having a completed album to expose are finally here. Through thick and thin, the Gold Cobra has slivered its way through the corporate jungle and into the studio to be mixed by Dave Schiffman. My intentions are to keep as much "polish" off of this album as possible. I have had many discussions with Dave as he's been on the cobra since the beginning and knows exactly the sound I am looking for regarding the mix. We are extremely excited to get this album into your eardrums. As some of you have noticed, we have and will take as much time as we need before putting this album out regardless of any pressure or impatience that is thrown our way. So, waste your breath if you like. Its your prerogative. --fd

From Fred Durst:

Limp Bizkit Finish Work On 'Gold Cobra'

From Fred Durst:

Looks like a fresh summer with new LB album dropping June 7 (MAYBE), BUT will get confirmation this Tuesday from Interscope.

So, we're told only 8 songs can be on an album and 11 songs on the "deluxe" version. When did the times change this? I'm like "whu??".

I can feel some LimpiLeaks in the works!

[faldor]

8 songs??  wtf!!

I hate small albums... it makes me feel like the artists didnt do any effort in the album, and just wanted to throw us a brick!

I hope this is not true, but it came from Fred 

For me an album has to have from 12 to 15 songs.

11 songs is still short for me.

Limpileaks sound great! =) I wish Axl was not so upthight...

Well according to Fred, he was TOLD they could only have 8 songs on the album.  So that wouldn't be for lack of effort.  I'm not sure why that would be the case.  Albums are still released with more than 8 songs with regularity, last I checked.


Another article, with pretty much the same info, although it says they have about 20 songs done.

Limp Bizkit Have Finished Their New Album
By Andrew Tijs
8 hours ago (Tue, 22 Mar 2011 16:10:47 +1100)

Limp Bizkit have finished their first full-length album in eight years.

Frontman Fred Durst merely tweeted ?Finished? from the mixing sessions for their fifth album and the first with the original line-up since 2000 ? Gold Cobra.

He also tweeted a video from the Village Recorder studio in Santa Monica where they did the mixing with David Schiffman (who has previously mixed Biffy Clyro, System Of A Down and Avenged Sevenfold).

The very last five seconds of the video features some of the music from the forthcoming album, which sounds like exactly what you?d expect from a Limp Bizkit album: sparse nu-metal and Durst rapping ?This is going out to the people who don?t give a fuck?.

Apparently 20 songs have been mixed, with Interscope mooting an eight-song album, and 11 songs on the deluxe edition.

There is currently no official release date but Durst has previously tweeted that Gold Cobra could come out on June 7.

[Halo69]

yeah i know, its not Fred's fault, but still it sucks

[Bodhi]

yeah i know, its not Fred's fault, but still it sucks

Hows it not Fred's fault?  He is the singer/songwriter!  Oh wait you are talking about the deluxe album thing, I thought you were talking about the songs themselves.
