Limp Bizkit is a nu metal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu_metal) band from Jacksonville (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacksonville%2C_Florida), Florida (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida).
They are often credited, along with their discoverers Korn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korn), for creating the nu metal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu_metal) genre and starting to widen its popularity. Limp Bizkit was very popular during the early 2000s, and their albums have sold over 60 million copies worldwide.
Limp Bizkit's current members are vocalist Fred Durst (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Durst), bassist Sam Rivers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Rivers_%28bass_guitarist%29), drummer John Otto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Otto_%28drummer%29) (Rivers' cousin), and Latvian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latvia) turntablist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turntablist)/sampler (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampler_%28musical_instrument%29) player DJ Lethal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJ_Lethal). The band's guitarist Wes Borland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wes_Borland) departed in 2001 following the release of their first three albums to be replaced by Mike Smith (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Smith_%28guitarist%29) for the band's fourth release Results May Vary (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Results_May_Vary). Wes rejoined for The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unquestionable_Truth_%28Part_1%29) only to quit once again in 2006 to work with other projects Black Light Burns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Light_Burns) and From First to Last (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_First_to_Last). It's unknown if Wes will rejoin Limp Bizkit in 2007 for The Unquestionable Truth (Part 2) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unquestionable_Truth_%28Part_2%29).
There are many rumors about where the band found inspiration for their name, and there have been several conflicting stories about its actual origin. Some, including the band's first guitarist Rob Waters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rob_Waters), claim the name was chosen because of how a friend of the band described his brain (like a "limp biscuit") while on marijuana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_%28drug%29).<sup class="noprint Template-Fact">[citation needed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)]</sup> The name might have originated from a game where a group of men would masturbate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masturbate) on a biscuit and the last one to ejaculate would have to eat the biscuit.
