Nu Metal

Here here! And why's SOAD getting lumped in with the rest of the garbage. Sure they were flavor-of-the-month for a minute, but not nu-metal.
 
To me nu Metal started far earlier but it just wasn't termed that way. Mordred were the first Metal band to have a sixth meraber on turntables. This was way back in 1991 with the album 'In This Life'. Way ahead of it's time but fans just weren't ready for it. Senser's debut came out the same time as RATM's debut and got lost in the wasteland too which is a shame as the beats on that album- although dated were again way before the late 90's explosion.
 
Yeah i used to listen to that quite a lot. I used to listen to SOAD's s/t and Toxicity albums the whole time, they were my fav nu-metal band at the time. I used to love Deftones' White Pony album aswell, i still give it a spin on the rare occasion.
 
I did begin with listening to Korn and SOAD when I was 15 or so, it was apart of my teenage angst. I got over them pretty quickly and moved on to better quality music.
