Photo: Granitz/WireImageIn the last week news has come down the pipeline that both Limp Bizkit and Blink-182 will be reuniting.
We think that they should join forces for an all-out suckfest called Blimp-Shit.
Honestly, we'd rather see Nickelstank -- a fictitious band consisting of members from Nickelback and Hoobastank -- or, along those lines, how about Toad the Wet Starship, the Spin Travelers, or Third Eye Buffett?
We were at the Grammy ceremony, where the Blink dudes "surprised" the crowd with news of the reunion. After that announcement the sound of crickets could be heard all over the Staples Center.
And where do we even begin with Limp Bizkit?
In a joint statement, Fred Turdst and Wes Borland said, "We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other. Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else. This is why Limp Bizkit is back."
Best of luck to them, but our question is this: Which reunion do you give less of a shit about?
Tough call.
Limp, it is.
What about you?

blink-182 | February 23, 2009 6:04 AM
not the most musicly talented or the greatest band but they are fun to hear and have something to say they like to sing out some people like it and some dont i personally do and at least they did something and if they were no bodys and you are hidding behind your computer talking shit as if you were better what does that make you
But seriously guys | February 22, 2009 2:08 PM

Alot of people are missing the point of the question. Which band I could care less about reuniting? That would be Blink-182. Boring name for an average pop-punk band. I care more about Limp Bizkit reuniting, because they are a truly horrible band. Who I was hoping they stay disbanded for good. Here's hoping that the reunion is meet with deserving crickets.

Fuck you whoever wrote this. You are a colossal idiot. Blink-182 is the greatest band ever. To even compare them to Limp Bizkit is ridiculous. Just because they're not Led Zeppelin or Bob Dylan or any other person you guys cover every five seconds doesn't mean they aren't up to par with anyone else. I'm 20 years old and blink has been my favorite band forever. This is beyond idiotic.

The weird thing is that Blink 182 and Limp Bizkit, no matter how simple and talentless they are, still are two of the most popular bands in the last 15 years. Blink moreso than Limp Bizkit, but there is a reason that they will sell out shows when they come back.
Guarentee LB and Blink 182 will sell more tickets than the majority of bands behind RS "Top Albums of 2008" will combined.

the only "reunion" worth its shit in 'lets get back together for a bit cuz momma needs new shoes' is seattle's MURDER CITY DEVILS.

The "sound of crickets" were heard over that roaring applause after they announced they were back?
The writer of this is full-retard.
tirpack's favorite jaffe | February 13, 2009 10:47 AM
Definitely Limp B.... I think the Hoobastank/Nickelback collab is probably my worst nightmare of all time. The only thing that would make it worse is if Creed decided to join that charade as well.

it's kinda weird how the rock daily is doing all this remembering about 182, with all these pic things and the smoking section fucking hates it, that RS for ya.
Blink Rocks | February 12, 2009 9:09 PM
F you Smoking Section, I love Blink-182, just because they aren't virtuoso musicians doesn't mean they don't make good, catchy music.

i suppose your right in some aspect

Rebuttal taken diligently and with pride. I wasn't gloating just stating what I read.
TheCoz | February 12, 2009 6:58 PM
Aaaack, people still putting words in my mouth. What I'm trying to say is, how many people consider themselves a hardcore fan of these bands? The same thing happened with Vanilla Ice. People with any taste in music hate these acts to begin with but someone must have bought those albums and now those people are nowhere to be seen.
I give up...everyone seems to be a know-it-all here.

i've never owned a hootie and shitfish and limp shitkit record, and i really hate both those bands, you can hate these bands without ever having owned there shitty music
TheCoz | February 12, 2009 6:46 PM
Thanks Ryan,
You've proven that you can add words to other people's comments just so you can bash them and make yourself appear intelligent:
A. I never said Limp Bizkit and Hootie were in the same genre of music.
B. I never said that LB sold as many records as Hootie. Where did that comment come from? My point was that they were both ridiculously popular for a short period of time and were then later bashed by people who once owned their records.
C. I'll accept the generational critique but I just have a different perspective. I consider 1995 (Hootie) the tail end of Gen X and 1999 (Limp) the beginning of Gen Y.
The End.

well sure, after the the success the police, led zeppelin, and other awesome reunions, there were bound to be some sucky ones... just don't pay attention to them, maybe they'll go away.
try not caring... | February 12, 2009 6:18 PM
about the worthless. It will increase your life expectancy. I'm still working on it myself...
Martin | February 12, 2009 6:16 PM
Blimp-shit!! Ha ha!!
I totally agree.
Ryan | February 12, 2009 6:13 PM
Edit: Hootie sold three times the records, in case you were wondering...
Ryan | February 12, 2009 6:12 PM
To The Coz:
You are obviously not musically intelligent enough to differentiate the fact that Hootie and Limp are in two different genres of music, sold three times the records and bashing your sense of time, were both together during the same generation. For them to be in two different generations, one of them had to be a band in the 70's or early 80's and the last time I checked they weren't. Man, you fucked up on so many levels....
Sincerely,
A Guy That Knows More Than You
TheCoz | February 12, 2009 5:44 PM
I can guarantee the same people hating on Limp Bizkit used to own “Significant Other”. LB has become this generation’s Hootie and the Blowfish.
