Mar. 30, 2010 LIMP BIZKIT is in the process of recording eighteen new songs for the band's forthcoming album, "Gold Cobra", tentatively due this summer. However, not all the tracks will end up on the finished product, which is expected to feature guest appearances by a host of hip-hop artists, including WU-TANG CLAN rapper Raekwon, Paul Wall and WU-TANG CLAN producer Mathematics.
Several audio teasers of the new LIMP BIZKIT material can be heard in the clips below.
In a January 2010 interview with Guitar Edge's Elliott Politte, LIMP BIZKIT guitarist Wes Borland stated about "Gold Cobra", "I think that everyone who hated LIMP BIZKIT before will continue to hate LIMP BIZKIT. It's not like we, all of a sudden, grew up and started making smarter music. It's definitely a fun, party kind of vibe. It's a little bit like the old stuff, but with a little bit of maybe a [French electronic music duo] DAFT PUNK vibe thrown in on some of it. There's big, huge riffs and hopefully catchy lyrics."
Due through Interscope/Polydor, "Gold Cobra" will be LIMP BIZKIT's first new studio album with the original lineup since 2000's "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water".
