Limp Bizkit - "Gold Cobra" (Lyric Trooper)

#Wes Borland Artwork

After many great success/failure, hiatuses, line-up changes, break ups, and reconciliations... Limp Bizkit are back! The original line-up of Fred Durst, Wes Borland, John Otto, Sam Rivers, and DJ Lethal has fully re-formed for the first time in roughly 10 years. During their initial run (1995-2000), Limp Bizkit released 3 successful albums - Three Dollar Bill, Yall$, Significant Other, and Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Flavored Water.* They were equally loved/hated by many... Often credited with creating the Nu-Metal/Rapcore genre.
The 2 releases which followed Chocolate Starfish..., Results May Vary and The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1), were missing the signature sounds of Borland and Otto, respectively. In-the-works since 2009, Gold Cobra has reported been fully recorded 3 separate times, with this most recent version alone mixed and mastered by a number of various studio techs. Following a series of repeated delays, Interscope/Polydor will finally unleash Gold Cobra this coming June 28th. There will be 3 differently configured US/UK versions of the album, including anywhere from 13-17 tracks ("Combat Jazz" as #17 in Japan). The album was produced by Durst/Borland and Dave Schiffman (mixer)... Features may very well include: DJ Mathematics, Paul Wall, Gene Simmons, Raekwon, and Lil' Wayne.


* Note-worthy Hit Singles: "Faith" (George Michael), "Counterfeit," "Nookie," "Break Stuff," "Re-Arranged," "N 2 Gether Now," "Rollin," "My Way," "Take a Look Around," "My Generation," and "Boiler" [1997-2001].

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

3 Feet High & Rising: Band of Bearded Brothers Cellar Door Moon Crow Unleash Rollicking Single "Whistler" from Upcoming Blues Rock EP (Bandcamp, self-released)

Whistler by Cellar Door Moon Crow British Rock 2-piece band Cellar Door Moon Crow mysteriously found and Followed The Witzard (@SharpCheddar856) on Twitter a few months ago. Their Facebook About section simply lists a brief, yet fitting, mission statement: "Band ~ Beards ~ Brothers Goodwin brothers Phil & Tommy . Sheffield, UK " and their accompanying Biography section contains a similar refrain: "Band ^ Beards ^ Brothers," as well as their Bandcamp page. There really isn't much else to be known about twin brothers Phil & Tom Goodwin , aside from the fact that they make infectious, down and dirty Rock "N" Roll —all entirely written, recorded, produced, and mixed in-house by Cellar Door Moon Crow (CDMC) themselves. CDMC 's Bandcamp page often tags their musical output as " British Rock , Rock, Blues Rock , two-piece band, Sheffield " and I would best liken their sound to a stylistic mix between The Black Keys , Thir
