While Limp Bizkit scrambled to find a replacement guitarist for the vacancy left by Wes Borland, mastermind Fred Durst found a way to breathe new life into selected tracks from the band’s canon. NEW OLD SONGS reads like a who’s who of 2001’s hottest DJ’s. “Nookie” sounds funkier and possibly more compelling than the original, as manipulated by The Neptunes, while Timbaland puts a fresh spin on “Take a Look Around” with hip-hop help from MC’s E-40 and Eightball. Limp Bizkit’s own man behind the turntables (DJ Lethal) takes center stage with his cut-up version of “Break Stuff.” Xzibit checks in with DJ Premier on “Getcha Groove On,” while Durst tries his own hand at remixing with guest vocals by Everlast on “Faith/Fame.” NEW OLD SONGS is a great introduction for hip-hop fans that find rap metal a bit hard to swallow, as these well produced remixes simultaneously appease hungry Bizkit fans.
