Details: Amazon.ca At best, most remix albums are irrelevant; at worst, they're just plain awful. It's fortunate, then, that most of the tracks on Limp Bizkit's first remix album New Old Songs are neither. But, with such high profile remixers drawn mostly from the hip-hop world, there's not much scope for error. Timbaland adds a dark industrial edge to "Take a Look Around", P Diddy amps up the bassline on "My Way", while Butch Vig's version of "Nookie" has a decidedly 1980s electronic flavour. Best of all, though, is the Neptunes' take on "N 2gether Now", all flowered-up hip-hop in an old-school style that's probably the cheeriest thing Fred Durst's ever been involved with. In fact, the only people who don't seem to have a handle on the remixing task are those in the band: DJ Lethal's efforts--with the exception of an energetic "Counterfeit"--are irrelevant, while Fred Durst's "Faith/Fame Remix" is just plain awful. Maybe they should stick to churning out the raw material that's sold millions of albums, and leave the remixing to the professionals. --Ted Kord Product description Limp Bizkit ~ New Old Songs
