around the fur is also a gem.

White Pony sounds nothing like any other nu metal album, especially any from 2000.

>>74014106
Yeah. It's definitely a standout.

>>74013711

This is the only correct answer and you know it

SOAD exists

>>74015541
>SOAD
>nu metal
I will literally never understand this label. They have none of the makings for a nu metal band

>>74013132
slipknot exists

>>74015566
they made unconventional metal in the early 2000s

>>74015566
Except they tick all of the boxes lol
>Simple songwriting
>Mr. Bungle-lite
>Obnoxious
>Occasionally "rapped" vocals
>Technically easy
>Rhythm section is actually better than the spotlighted part of the band

SOAD are incredibly hit-or-miss

>>74013132
This album is rated highly on RYM purely because of it's "technicality" and "experimentalism". This is a genuinely terrible album and shows the pretentiousness of people on that site.

word

I LOVE KORN S/T. I FUCKING LOVE IT GOD. I ALSO LOVE THE FIRST $ ALBUMS OF DEFTONES. AND SOAD.

>>74015597
Only one of those is synonymous with nu metal as a genre, and they don't even have any hip hop or grunge influence. The fast vocals is just because Serj is a weird Armenian fucker. They're alternative metal if anything.

Leave nu metal to me.

Sorry but i think he gave a pretty accurate list of nu metal charasteristics, and all match fir soad's first two albums.

Is that the Death in June dude in the front?

>>74016008
Yes, it's David Tibet

>>74013711

it's like saying dust is dirty. dust is the dirt, the thing it's on is dirty

nu-metal was pretty interesting in retrospect

This is unironically good.

That first Disturbed album was bretty sexy in the strip club. The girls liked it and it went well with the boozed out cocaine balance of a degenerate pseudo-preppy gangster lifestyle.

>>74013132
Summer Romance is the best song they ever put out until Quicksand.

That and s/t are both great nu metal albums.

Maybe one day Chester will accept that it's those two albums fans crave for again. But it's probably too late, they're in the same boat as Coldplay in deciding to just make shitty dance music now.

All great. I also love Make Yourself, Morning View, Around the Fur, Deftones' Self-Titled, Hybrid Theory, and both Toxicity and Mesmerize (or Hypnotize or whatever) were solid albums.

I like a few Slipknot tracks, but none of their albums is something i would listen to from start to finish. Their self-titled is the most consistent.

Mushroomhead also has some great jams (Solitaire Unraveling, 43, Too Much Nothing, Sun Doesn't Rise).

I never understood the hype around Mr Bungle. It sounded more psychedelic/experimental than metal to me most of the time (not using "psychedelic" to refer to the genre).

Any recs for Mr Bungle?

The self titeled is pretty good. Even bought it on Vinyl. Its now awkwardly placed between the new Dimmu borgir record and ode to the flame from Mantar.

>Spineshank.
>Taproot.
>Coal Chamber.
>Kittie.
>One Minute Silence.
>Static X.
>Ill Nino.

Used to love this shit when I was an angry teenager, glad I grew out of it.

Slipknot can only dream of making an album that good

UNDERRATED AS FUCK

Even as a teen I couldn't get into Taproot's albums. The only songs I liked were the reworked versions of tracks from their early demos, in fact I still kinda like their early demos.

Morning View is superior
