The Nu Metal Kid

Started by Ass Goblin3 pages

Nu Metal is decribled with bands like Linken Park , System of a down? , limp bizket bands that have huge media coverage and 'soften' there music to gain sales.

Metal as i see is fast heavy and powerful e.g mudvayne, slipknot,machine head,mushroom head, static x, and others like that are what 'standard' metal is

I really don't like how people use the term "nu metal", because it really isnt any different than hard rock or alt. rock. (depending on which band). Because I mean really, you can't group Linkin Park and Slipknot in the same category...it just doesn't work. Even if you wanted to, "nu metal" is a poor excuse for a genre title.

very true. i think nu metal is supposed to be the term for metal produced in the late 90's/early 00's, which wouldnt make it a genre at all, just a period of time in which a certain type of music is popular.

many people class Static X, Mudvayne and Mushroomhead as nu metal though.

now im really confused

i allways thought nu metal was bands that have djs or rap elements and void of guitar solos

korn are nu metal and they dont have dj's they do have some rap elements but not much to count.
