Limp Bizkit - ShotgunLimp Bizkit - Shotgun

When Limp Bizkit reformed back in 2009 and went on to play the Download and Sonisphere festival in the UK, there was hype and excitement from music fans all across the world and their performances at these festivals were amazing with thousands of fans coming out in force to watch Fred Durst and co rock out again, not long after these performances Limp Bizkit announced that they were working on a new studio album called ‘Gold Cobra’ and that it would be released in early 2010 but a year and a half on from that date Limp Bizkit are finally ready to unleash ‘Gold Cobra’ to the world with a release date scheduled for the 27th June, but in the meantime they have just released their brand new single ‘Shotgun’.

After being away from the music scene for so long and the poor songs featured on the last Limp Bizkit record ‘The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1)’ and also the major delay of new material I really did not know what to expect of new Limp Bizkit material but after listening to ‘Shotgun’ a few times over it is clear to say that Limp Bizkit are back bigger and better than anyone ever imaged, ‘Shotgun’ is one big kick arse mosh pit anthem and it has everything that you have come to expect from a Limp Bizkit song from Fred’s loud and clear unique vocals all the way to Borland’s fantastic guitar riffs, but the main quality is that Limp Bizkit have managed to craft a real upbeat repetitive track that is instantly going be listed in the top 5 Limp Bizkit tracks with most fans.

It is good to see Limp Bizkit back and I believe that after hearing ‘Shotgun’ and ‘Why Try’ that ‘Gold Cobra’ is going to be one hell of a fantastic album when it is released on the 27th June and it is going to reinstate Limp Bizkits place in the rock scene and guarantee that they will be breaking stuff for many more years to come.

5/5
