I've seen this described as nu-metal
>>71438675
fine, "Alt Metal". the only difference is the vocal style
>>71438675
SOAD were nu metal's defining act
>>71438991
I always thought numetal was like the groups that half-assed tried to combine metal with hip hop. When I think numetal I think of Korn or HED PE
Mudvayne

It's all nu-metal. Stop thinking of genres as lines drawn on the ground you can't step over.

Easy and accepted Nu-Metal definition.
- If the act attempts to combine a rock genre (in Nu-Metal's case, typically the metal and industrial genres) with Hip-Hop and Hip-Hop techniques (rapping, sampling, DJing), it's Nu-Metal.
early korn, slipknot, and limp bizkit have their merits
>>71439154
tool is to nu-metal what the stooges are to punk
>>71439233
but death grips and liturgy don't sound like any other nu metal
>>71439233
This was my understanding but apparently /mu/ thinks nu-metal is everything from the 2000's that was harder than Jon Mayer.
>>71439071
I rather like Hed (p.e.). I'm not sure I like your tone.
SOAD and Deftones are the closest I could think of that come close to "patrician nu-metal".

I'm not a snob at all. They're kinda corny but I'll still listen to them. I remember finding them because Swan Dive was on the Dracula 2000 soundtrack. Might be the first place I heard Linkin Park too desu.

this.
>>71439233
Korn didn't rap and they're absolutely nu-metal
The Snot album is great.
>>71439233
Then Faith No More predates nu-metal by a decade.

They did that scat vocals
Stumbling across this thread at an interesting time. I listened to Toxicity a good bit in high school but never bothered with anything prior, and sort of moved on past their sound as I got older.
For whatever reason I was feeling nostalgic and hopped around Toxicity just last week, followed by some of their other albums "for kicks".
While they're not at all what I'd consider myself a fan of, today, I have to hand it to Mesmerize (and Hypnotize, to a lesser extent) for being infectious and a whole lot of fun.
Some of the riffs are super generic, and a good chunk of the lyrics make me feel like I should be raising a spork in the air, but damn if it hasn't made the morning shifts breeze by.
Deftones and I would argue Slipknot on the merits of Volume 3: The Subliminal Verse alone.

scat vocals aren't rap vocals
Reveille
Everything Limp Bizkit. They owned the genre. The epitome of everything wonderful about nu metal.

These guys were posted constantly a few years ago, they're the only metal band anyone here ever liked.
>>71438552
SOAD fucking suck, serj is ugly as shit and sounds like a fucking whiny fucking goat
i don't understand what people like about this "band"
KYS

I'd say Deftones, early Mudvayne & SOAD. I wouldn't lump Tool into nu metal. Machine Head did some Nu metalish albums that weren't bad also... but Rob Flynn is a fucking douche.
RATM was great, but I wouldn't really call them nu metal either.
Slipknot has actually stood the test of time. Disturbed to a much lesser extent.
I loved KoRn and Limp Bizkit in high school. I can't listen to more than 30 seconds before I start cringing and have to turn it off.
Death Grips

is this a new pasta
System of a Down syndrome is NOT metal.
