10 Albums You Loved As A Teen (But Should Never Listen To Again)

1. Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Dog Flavoured Water (Limp Bizkit)

Why You Shouldn't Listen: Limp Bizkit have managed to sneak back into favour with rock and metal fans over the past decade or so after years of being outcast and ridiculed for their style. That displays the fickleness of music as a medium, and it shows how trends dip in and out of favour depending on what powerful journalists and platforms like Kerrang, Metal Hammer and more say.

There's no defending the awful title though. 'Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Dog Flavoured Water' is an abomination of a name for anything, let alone one of the early-2000s most-listened-to albums. Tracks like 'Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle)' and 'My Way' were also so popular when they were released that there's pretty much no reason to listen to them ever again.

An entire generation of people could probably play these from start to finish in their heads.

Fred Durst's embarrassing shouts of, "Jeeeeeeah" are face-palm moments for sure, and there's a distinctly dated feel to the Bizkit's biggest seller that's undeniable. Just watch the build for WrestleMania X-Seven's match between The Rock and Steve Austin instead. That's all the Limp you'll need.
