With three wins, Limp Bizkit --a band that finds itself in limbo following the departure of guitarist Wes Borland--was the top honoree at the MTV Europe Music Awards on Thursday night (11/8).

The band won for Best Group, and its "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water" (Interscope) LP picked up Best Album. Meanwhile, Limp Bizkit's website won the Web Award.
