is the 2005 compilation album by nu metal giants Limp Bizkit . It serves as a definitive retrospective of the band's peak commercial era, covering tracks from their first four studio albums. For audiophiles, the FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) version is the "hot" choice because it provides a bit-perfect, uncompressed copy of the original CD audio, preserving every nuance of the heavy riffs and DJ scratches. Album Essentials (2005) Release Date: November 8, 2005
Released on November 8, 2005, via Flip/Interscope Records, Greatest Hitz served as a contractual obligation and a summary of Limp Bizkit's peak years (1997–2005).
