I was a teen when Limp Bizkit was the thing for me and it's pretty sad that no other band has that sound yet. Especially the one of the less known tracks. I'm not a hardcore metal guy, so I look for guitar work with melodies. Any recommendations?

Re: the Limp Bizkit bit, how do you feel about this? https://youtu.be/qI7SAPzPVQg

I have to say, I'm not very good with specific descriptors like that, moreso (sub)genres or "this band sounds like that/these band(s)".

I agree there's not a lot that sounds quite like Limp Bizkit, not that I'm familiar with anyway.

When you say "guitar work with melodies", what first comes to my mind is Iron Maiden. My instinct was to go to my concert calendar and see what is coming up that might fit the bill to give you a rec, and I found "The Lord Weird Slough Feg" (sometimes just "Slough Feg" these days) is in a couple weeks. One track I remember loving by them is "Tiger! Tiger!". Their whole vibe reminds me of a Heavy Metal 2000 (the movie).

Give that a shot, hopefully I'm not too far off the mark!

(edit: and if that tickles your fancy, check out "Burst into Flames" by Haunt; "Time to Die" by Satan)
