The Death Of Nu-metal

[imported_computerfreak76]

metal i agree with you i am diversified with my music as well. i like a little bit of everything including old school rap. you know what gets me is the punks that say well my music is better than your music rah rah rah.

i think only a real loser would put someone down just because they like metallica or michael bolton. i mean music is music no two people are going to like the same kinds. it just pisses me off when someone asks you hey man what do you listen to? and then you tell them and they are like ohhh they suck and they suck thats just fucking stupid. grow up dammit!!

as i saw on MTV2, sales for link park's new album Meteora have been disappointing to say the least. This prompted the station to announce the death of nu-metal to be appon us. This can only be a good thing, in my opinion, as bands that i myself class as nu-metal (LP, Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, Slipknot etc.) were overproduced, overhyped pieces of shit. This leaves me with several questions, however: If Nu-Metal is dead, when was it born? Who were the first Nu-Metal bands? Did they know what they were creating? And what new alternative craze will replace it? Suggestions and discussion please.

Nu-metal is good so fuck off you stupid shit!!!!

well, guess i touched several nerves on this one. i didn't set out to offend anyone, i was just offering my opinion and asking for yours, which is what i got i guess. maybe its just cos im english and i see the whole nu-metal thing as american, i dont know, but you listen to whatever you want, its not my place to tell you otherwise. btw, if anyone cares, im not a metalhead, i listen to bands like nofx, bad religion and the descendents, and i am a big fan of ska. so there

Its only been on sale for 7 days. How dissapointed could they be?

and

i must admit that i WAS disappointed in their {linkin park's} new album, very short compared to Hybrid Theory.....but STILL, there are alot of cool tracks on there.....

I think this sums up my opinion pretty well. it is very short and i will say i liked hybrid theory (at the time) better than this record. That said, there are some very good songs on this cd as well and i still think LP is one of my favorite bands. And yes, i listen to rap too.

Hmmmmmm, Nu metal? I really don't think of it AS new metal, while it is hard shit, it is not the METAL I grew up with. I do like korn, disturbed, system of a down, ect........ But metal? I think not! It reminds me more of hard rock!
I guess when you listen to what I do (cradle of filth, amorphis, white skull, iced earth, iron maiden, ect.....) You kinda have to look at "Nu metal" as the "Beta" male of the pack!
Is it on the way out?, I don't think so! It is diverse, talented, and melodic. It truly shows how far music can be taken.
Rock on! B)
