Initially dismissed this one because of all the rapping and Fred Durst, but some of the songs are fucking badass. LOVE "Dead Bodies Everywhere" and "My Gift To You". AMAZING guitar tones and textures.
Limp Bizkit - Significant Other
Fred's rapping on 9 Teen 90 Nine is fucking great. "I'M A BEASTY BOY -- SURE SHOT, AVOID THE SHELL SHOCK, FUCK THE GLAM ROCK, ASSED OUT LIKE KEN SHAMROCK." Really prophetic. This is no 3 Dolla Bill Y'all$ but it's still good.
Static-X - Wisconsin Death Trip
Taking Ministry's brutal industrial approach and updating it for the modern era. Love the growly vocals and the simplistic futurist riffs.
Spineshank - Height of Callousness
See above. GREAT fucking album. "FUCK INTEGRITY, FUCK INTEGRITY!!"
Cold - 13 Ways to Bleed On Stage
Over look the cursing and overdriven one finger riffs on the tuned-to-mud-sharp overprocessed guitars and you have a band dying to support art punk, who clearly loved early Cure records. But you know, this band is way better than the fucking Cure.
STAIND - Tormented
This is their really hard, early, underground, dirty shit. The album opens with a gun clicking and ends with a gunshot. Brilliant!
Vanilla Ice - Hard to Swallow
Fucking love this record.
hed(p.e.) - Broke
Recently got back into this one. Fucking badass rapping with some junk rock riffs. Greatshit.

This post actually encouraged me to go listen to those records again haha. Staind have a great sound (well their first 3 did... not too much into those lame power ballads). Also listened to Wheatus's first album. Sorta sounds like a bunch of pop-punk kids discovering Weezer... not great but I remember why I liked it all those years ago.
