It appears that Limp Bizkit’s search for the
“illist guitar player known to man” has officially ended. The Limp ones
debuted their new guitarist Sunday night during the telecast of Wrestlemania
where they performed “Rollin’” and the new track “Crack Addict” with Korn
Guitarist Brian "Head" Welch and former Snot guitarist Mike Smith.
Last May we reported a rumor that Smith
had been tapped to replace Wes Borland in Limp Bizkit (see
story) and it now appears that those rumors have come true. In a recent
posting to the Limp Bizkit website frontman Fred Durst described Smith
as “our new guitarist”. So the mystery is over. Whether he is the illist
guitarist known to man is open to debate but at least we know Fred thinks
so.
In other Fred related news, he also had
this to say about the new Limp Bizkit CD (the names changes weekly but
it is now set to be released on June 17th.): "The more the build-up continues,
the more I realize how much depth this album has," wrote Durst on
the Limp Bizkit website. "It's not one dimensional like others I'm hearing
in this genre. And it doesn't sound like a pre-fabricated formula. It feels
very honest and real to me. I'm sure you will feel the same. I'm getting
excited."
Fred also mentioned that they band plans
to play some live dates in May. There were no details at press time.
