4.0 out of 5 stars LIMP BIZKIT "GOLD COBRA" June 28, 2011
Format:Audio CD
For a while back at the turn of the century Limp Bizkit could do no wrong, their first 3 studio albums all selling millions of copies. It seemed the more negative press they got especially front man Fred Durst the more records they ended up selling. That would all change by late 2001/early 2002 as a new wave of guitar bands namely The Strokes and The White Stripes would change the course of The music landscape at the time. Also the departure of guitarist Wes Borland would also deliver a blow to Limp Bizkit. They continued on with 2003's "Results May Vary" a record which divided fans and didn't sell in the numbers the previous albums had. A brief return in 2005 with original guitarist Wes Borland yielded the ep "The Unquestionable Truth Part 1" which saw the band adopt a much heavier sound. By 2006 it was all over Borland had departed again to work on his own band Black Light Burns debut album. Red baseball caps were becoming an endangered item, that was until 2009 when they got back together and started touring and promised a new album which is what we have now in "Gold Cobra".

It's their first full length album With Wes Borland since 2000's "Chocolate Starfish and Hot Dog flavored Water" and his presence does make a difference, you will recognise his familiar riff on "Bring It Back"(following intro opener "Introbra") which bursts into life before the minute mark when Drummer John Otto unleashes his heavy sound. The title track "Gold Cobra" sound like it wouldn't be out of place on first album "Three Dollar Bill Y'All" and features some great bass work by Sam Rivers as well as some great rhymes from Durst the track even changes a bit towards the end, kinda like the breakdown used in "Eat You alive". As always Rivers Bass and Otto's drums are real tight.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another Hollywood ending July 1, 2011
Format:Audio CD
So, Limp's first studio album since 2005 started out firing on all 16 cylinders. It was like taking a trip back into my 20s when Korn was still relevant, Britney was still every man's fantasy and rock had a rosy future. The first five tracks on Gold Cobra remind me of classic Bizkit, yet it doesn't sound dated. The second half isn't terrible, but I felt a gnawing sensation mounting from the pit of my stomach as though I was watching the latest Michael Bay summer blockbuster; a great beginning to grab your attention, a mediocre middle that is just intruguing enough to hold your attention and a disappointing 3rd act. It's not that the album is a letdown. Overall, I'm thrilled to add this to my collection, but I personally felt the novelty wearing thin as the album progressed.

Aside from tracks 8 and 13, the remaining singles on the second half of the record are so-so, but probably forgettable. Fortunately, the final track (Killer in You) is a very solid single as is "Walking Away", which appears in the eigth slot, and the two break up what is an otherwise average second half. Overall, I don't like giving the album only 3 stars, but I feel giving it 4 would be pushing it.

It's good to have LB back, and this album is good enough to where I'll look forward to the next.

3.0 out of 5 stars I wanted this to be Amazing.... June 28, 2011
Format:Audio CD
I've been on board since Limp Bizkit decided to get back together. After years apart and a new level of maturity, I was hoping this cd would blow me away. Are there good songs? Yes. Are there catchy songs we love? Yes. However, it's just not that memorable. I listened to the album and there was no song I went back to hear again. There just wasn't that wow factor. It's not a bad cd, it's just not great. However Borland's guitar playing really shines through on most of the tracks, an aspect I was very impressed with. It's not just Durst rapping over a live band playing a track anymore. The instrumentals are pretty good. It just didn't hit that amazing factor for me. If you're bikzit fan, you better get this. If you're a hater then this will just fuel the fire

4.0 out of 5 stars Gold Cobra (Standard Edition) [explicit] October 25, 2011
By Matt Z.
Format:Audio CD
I purchased LB's last album The Undisputed Truth, and largely like that album the riffage on here is courtesy of Wes Borland.

Let me "break it down"

THE GOOD: The album is mostly consistent, the riffs are hot, dirty and UGLY..(in a good way)

The bass drops and contemporary influences don't completely mar what the band is and does

THE BAD:
The absence of rock bass grooves in place of bass traps (low frequency dives)
DJ Lethal doesn't rip any wicked club grooves
Fred's insistence on nursery rhyming some songs. The dubious reference to himself as "the polar bear".... (being neither imposing nor an albino) -_-

No dynamics in much of the mix. Something tells me a different mixer worked on this album than on priors. He doesn't do justice to the elements he's working with. The mix "feels" flat.

However, I believe the songs here would be AWESOME live

Song Breakdown:

Introbra: Humorous Title, unnecessary song, just some intro music without the usual Durstivities

Bring it Back: Pretty Good song, attempts to draw on club music style: dry drums

Gold Cobra: Although the chorus gets dull over a while, i thought this was the best track of the album upon first listening. Good flow, nice eeriness courtesy of DJ Lethal

Shark Attack: AWESOME music... Pretty good song, reminds me of THREE DOLLAR BILL songs, except that it has a throwback early hip hop groove... "cause it's like that...and that's the way it is!!" styley which is kinda corny, but hell, this is Limp Bizkit

Get A Life: BY FAR... the best song on the album. Blisteringly angry cut, like the prior reference Fred goes crazy on the vocal, which is great. Strangely this one is lyrically good as well.

If Limp Bizkit ever wants me to buy one of their CD's again, start including an instrumental version of the album, a.k.a. a "FRED-less" version. Read more
