Is Toxicity the only actually good Nu Metal album?

If you enjoy the genre, certainly not.

Their debut is better.

What would you recommend as stand out albums of the genre?

>>74590050
This is a list off the top of my head:

>Korn - Korn
>Korn - Follow the Leader
>Deftones - Around the Fur
>Deftones - White Pony
>Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
>Rage Against the Machine - Evil Empire
>Slipknot - Slipknot
>System of a Down - System of a Down
>System of a Down - Toxicity
>Mudvayne L.D. 50
>Powerman 5000 - Tonight the Stars Revolt!
>Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
>Linkin Park - Live in Texas (DVD Version)
>Chevelle - Wonder What's Next

These 2 are, in my opinion, the true standouts of that period and genre that also stand the test of time.
>Deftones - White Pony
>Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine

Follow the leader is meh, Issues is better

>being this much of a pleb

To each their own, only my opinion. My personal favorite Korn album is Life is Peachy and I did not include it on the list. Made the list in a introductory/best of the genre sort of way. Issues is a great nu-metal album. Trash and Somebody Someone are Korn classics.

Slipknot self titled and that's it

Hmm, I guess RATM would count I don't know why but I never considered them Nu Metal but they do fit all the criteria.

>>74590307
I understand where you're coming from. I think this way too and think it is because of how awful most nu-metal really is as music. Besides my list above, most music in the genre is really, really poor.

>>74590354
It was a weird phase in music for sure. Something that I doubt will have a revival luckily.

I feel like Taproot are rather underrated.

It's the most quotable album of all time

>>74591011
"YOUUUUU!! MY TAPEWORM TELLS ME WHAT TO DO!!! YOUUUU!! MY TAPEWORM TELLS ME WHERE TO GOOOO!!"

it's awful because it's emblematic of toxic masculinity
