Limp Bizkit's Revenge Against The Bullies Backfired

. (TeamRock Radio) Fred Durst has recalled the "uneasy" experience of realizing that bullies enjoyed Limp Bizkit's music - even though they'd been formed as a way of fighting back from bullying.

Durst tells KTLA5: "When I got the microphone I figured I had to say something. I felt like standing up for myself and what I'd gone through. I was a big misfit where I grew up - I was abused and bullied a lot. If you're someone that's tortured and bullied, wearing that target on your back, you need an outlet. It was a revenge against the bullies."

But as the band's reputation grew, he recalls, "the sound was so ferocious that bullies themselves would embrace Limp Bizkit. It was uneasy for us to see the people we really hated being fans of the music, alongside the people we were fighting for." Read more here.
