After Wes Borland quit Limp Bizkit to set up Eat The Day, Fred Durst began a national search for a replacement. Although no new guitarist has been announced the rest of the band are already recording their next album, with Durst telling fans on his website that they have recently picked a producer and recorded two-and-a-half songs. He did not confirm a producer name, nor did he give any real information on the direction of the album. “We have some great ideas all ready to be recorded," he wrote. "We can’t wait. It has been an inspirational year for us. There are a lot of layers to be shed on this album. Some will feel a little familiar, others will take you places we've never taken you before. We are definitely on an emotional journey into the future." Durst, who is also working on a movie project with Fight Club director David Fincher, tried to get Borland to rejoin the band by giving fans his email address so they could lobby him. But the stunt seems to have caused only friction between the guitarist and his former band.
