Limp Bizkit Influenced By Neil Diamond

August 6, 2009
Limp Bizkit Influenced By Neil DiamondLimp Bizkit main man Fred Durst has said that the Florida band's new album has been inspired by, and will sound like, veteran singer Neil Diamond.

"We've got a new record coming and we're really excited to unleash it on the world. The sound? I would say think Neil Diamond”, frontman said of the recently reformed nu-metal survivors.

A statement in February announced that Fred Dusrt and guitarist Wes Borland had reconciled any differences and intended to release new material in the future.

Durst said of the reunion, "I missed Wes a lot, we love being back together. It was quite natural actually, it was great when we got back together, this is only the beginning though.”
