Aw, phooey.

Anyone hoping to relive the awesomeness of hearing songs like “Nookie” and “N 2 Gether Now” by rock band Limp Bizkit will just have to download the tracks buy the CD. The front man of the group, Fred Durst talked to UK-metal mag, Kerrang! and admitted that there really isn’t much demand for them to play our shores anymore.

“We don’t play back home. We’ve boycotted America for many years now… We did a few radio shows in 2010 for a friend and that was it. We haven’t properly toured America since 2006. The reason? We just don’t know what’s going on in America. It’s all about the new catchy thing and that’s always changing. America is driven by record sales. It’s the home of corporations. We’re just Limp Bizkit, so we don’t know how to do anything but Limp Bizkit.”

In truth, the guy holds a lot of reality about who they were during the days of TRL (admit it; you liked one or two of their songs) and who they are now.

“In 2000, there were 35 million people who connected to this band,” he said quite poignantly. “Twelve years later, lots of those people have moved on. We were a moment in time and it’s over.”

Doesn’t mean they’re completely over: they’ve just signed a deal with Cash Money Records (wow; they’re still around?) and are supposedly working on two projects with the new label.

As they once said in their songs, keep on rollin’.
