Interscope label parted ways with Limp Bizkit

Dec 12, 2011
Record label Interscope has parted ways with Limp Bizkit. According to the band's frontman Fred Durst, it happened because of the poor sales of their sixth studio effort Gold Cobra that hit the stores earlier this year.

Trying to explain commercial failure of the record, Fred Durst said: "One of the things with Gold Cobra was that it was a record for us to do for ourselves, for the core fans, for some of the people that we know in the industry. It wasn't our step forward to make a big pop; we just didn't want to make that record at that time".

Last month it was announced that Limp Bizkit frontman is set to play main role in upcoming sitcom titled Douchebag, says an announcement by CBS TV Studios. TV series will tell about a famous rock musician who is torn between life of a celebrity and attempts to restore his family.

According to the reports, Fred Durst will star during the brake before Limp Bizkit's tour next summer in support of Gold Cobra.
