Limp Bizkit is an American band founded in 1994 in Jacksonville, Florida. The main style of the band is nu-metal, a form of the alternative metal trend. The musicians are known for the hash lyrics of their songs and aggressive singing of Fred Durst, the founder and soloist of the group. The concerts of the group through all its life have been accompanied by scandals which concerned either the musicians themselves or their fans. Nevertheless, the band has been three times nominated for the Grammy award. By 2019, the group has sold more than 40 million copies of their discs, 16,5 million of which have been sold in the USA.
Meaning and history
1993 — 2003
From 1999 to 2003 the logo was just the wordmark of the group, “Limp Bizkit”. In was written in fantasy-like font with a lot of curls and decorations. Its colour was changing from fire orange to honey yellow making the image of a dancing flame.
2003 — Today
From 2003 the wordmark is made in a strict bold font very close to the commercial Plakette TS Heavy. It also took a small emblem to the left of the band’s name: a toon ghost with his hand with an open palm stretched ahead.
