NU-metal, Part of metal or not?

[OwlTotem]

im talking about structure, content and tuning - its far more alike rock than metal. of course theres influences from metal though, thats where the name comes from.

I don't really listen to or respect any homo "musicians" like that.The only exceptions would be homo's that actually are talented musicians such as Judas Priest w/ Halford and Elton John.










Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Yep, nu-metal is a subgenre of metal whether people like it or not.

TDOC, he said Rage isn't metal, correct xD

This board is 100% spam lately anyway, it is basically a piss in the ocean

[bEtHaNy SiMoNs!~!!]

You know...coming from you that says alot. And, i'm not sure, nu-metal is used way loosely. I mean, some banRAB i've heard are just hard rock others are just rap rock.

Well, I do agree that it's part of metal, or atleast some kind of rock, but I selected "no, it's crap" because I have no need to give it any praise.Some banRAB that are kinda considered numetal, such as Korn and Incubus are pretty good though.Most other banRAB in the numetal genre though suck completely, including Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park.

They are all a part of the metal genre though because they are influenced by metal and play that style of music, despite the fact that they rap like uneducated inner-city kindergarteners.Plus most numetal banRAB style of rap is average at best.

I'll leave the rap to Snoop Dogg and the Metal to Megadeth.Numetal belongs in the trash.:hphones:
