Editorial Reviews

The splicing together of nu metal, rap, funk, and sterile electronica laced with dark melodies as infectious as anything Britney has to offer inspired 6 million people to purchase copies of Limp Bizkit's Significant Other. With Chocolate Starfish, they perfect their formula. From the electro-infused "Intro" through the contagiously chugging "My Generation" to the straight-up rap of "Getcha Groove On," Chocolate Starfish is a slick, clinical, and flawless platform for Fred Durst's effortlessly savage--and occasionally unintentionally comic--sociological rants geared toward disaffected youth. Ultimately, though, it's that undeniably intelligent musical backdrop--the brooding guitar sound that gave the Mission Impossible 2 theme haunting new life and menace, and that defines "Hot Dog," "Full Nelson," "My Way," "Rollin'," "Boiler," and "It'll Be Okay"--that makes this a seething work of genius. The fact is, with rap and rock saying pretty much the same thing, Limp Bizkit have plenty of competition. They just do what they do better than everyone else. --Dan Gennoe

This Cd Is Great but to pay the extra money for this limited edition one is not worth it.It just comes with a extra cd which has only 1 song which is not that good but if you want to get it that is fine but if you want to by the limited edition you can find it at the same price as the non limited edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Music - although is the limited edition for you? February 4, 2001

By Henry Biddlecombe

Format:Audio CD

First of all I would like to establish the fact that I am a dedicated Lip Bizkit fan. After purchasing this album - I came to the conclusion that this particluar CD is nothing short of Limp Bizkits style and standards.

Although, many people are disillusioned by the fact that this version is the limited edition. Yes, there is an extra CD included in the album containing an extra track - but I would only recommend this "limited edition" to those who are big fans of Limp Bizkit, music collectors or those of you who are purchasing it as a gift.

For the rest of you soon-to-be fans, I think keep that spare cash in your pocket, purchase the standard version of the album and continue the search for your favourite artist or band.

(I rated this album 5/5 as I am a Limp Bizkit fan, I loved this album and I think the limited edition is a nice touch for those who care)

4.0 out of 5 stars Lay off the cussing? December 29, 2000

A Kid's Review

Format:Audio CD

Overall, this album was a good one. However, I was slightly disappointed about how little Limp Bizkit has changed.

Now, call me crazy, but I thought LB was going to soften up a bit. Comparing "3 Dollar Bill, Y'all$" to "Significant Other", it seemed that Limp had made a drastic change. There were more melodic songs, some better rhymes, and meanings behind the songs. I noticed that the amount of profane language increased a tad, however. And to tell you the truth, I wasn't very happy. But I say, what the heck? It's a good album.

No matter how many times Fred would say the "F" word in "Significant Other", nothing would change my mind about Limp Bizkit changing. I expected A LOT more melodies, some good rhymes, and a lot less language...

Okay, the melodies were good. Yes, the ryhmes were excellent. But I was absolutely stupified when i heard "Hot Dog". He say the mother of all cusses, what, 48 times? I suppose the next Bizkit (if there is one) will be worse.

This was a great CD, but can't we lay off the cussing?

p.s. to whoever wrote the review saying "Rollin' (UAV)" is the best song: Xzibit isn't in it...he's in "Getcha Groove On"
