10 Albums That Killed Artists' Careers

Ever since the beginning, Limp Bizkit were never really that good of a band. Though the band showed promise with the more aggressive cuts on their early albums, they threw almost all of their potential out the window once the royalty checks came in for songs like "Nookie." The band may have been at the right place at the right time, but Results May Vary is when everyone realized the bile they were listening to.

Even though frontman Fred Durst had already been in hot water at this point for inciting a riot at Woodstock 1999, people were still willing to hear if he had changed at all on this latest record. Instead of hearing something more thoughtful or introspective, most of these songs feel like the same old whining you would hear from a 16 year old kid, with lyrics that dealt with being picked on in middle school.

The exit of guitarist Wes Borland doesn't do the album any favors either, with most of the songs having to be carried by Durst's tough-guy facade. The album even gets really uncomfortable in places, with lyrics that range from wanting to smell undergarments of the opposite sex to making light of the school shootings that took place at Columbine in the late '90s. It's never fun to see a band fall from grace, but considering what we were given with this album, it's not like Limp Bizkit's irrelevance was unwarranted.
