Wes Borland, the guitarist for the multi-platinum nu metal band Limp Bizkit, has confirmed that some of his own sessions took place, although frontman Fred Durst has continued to fuel rumors that the band is back in the studio, as per theprp. His time in the studio, however, was spent working with composer and musician Danny Elfman rather than his fellow Bizkit members. Yesterday, February 22, Borland posted on social media that he had worked on those tunes for a large portion of the weekend. Over the past few years, Borland and Elfman have shared the stage on multiple occasions.

Fred Durst, the frontman of Limp Bizkit, is widely recognized as the icon of the late 1990s and early 2000s nu metal movement, yet his dedication to filmmaking persists After honing his skills directing music videos for his band and artists like Staind and Korn, Durst ventured into feature films. His directorial credits include “The Education Of Charlie Banks” with Jesse Eisenberg, “The Longshots” starring Ice Cube, and “The Fanatic,” featuring John Travolta. Recent social media activity suggests that Durst is eager to direct a new horror film, potentially inspired by Markiplier’s adaptation of the 2022 video game “Iron Lung.” Durst has expressed his desire to enter the horror genre through social media comments, even responding to Jason Blum, the founder and CEO of Blumhouse Productions, about recent horror successes.
