For those who like nu metal, what's your favorite nu metal band? Mine would be Mudvayne, and I love their L.D. 50 album.

Eerie, I was just going to make this thread. System of a Down would be my favorite nu-metal band, though I also like Disturbed a lot. I think Korn is also considered nu-metal (though I'm not 100% on that) and I really like them to.

I'm not sure whats classed as nu-metal, there are so many sub-genres out there nowadays i don't keep track of them.

But System of a Down are great so i'll go with them.

Are Deftones considered nu metal? If they are, they'd be my pick. I'm really not a fan of the genre.

Rage Against the Machine is the only band I like that could possibly be considered Nu Metal.

Deftones and SOAD are more like alternative metal.

KoRn invented nu-metal so I would say they could be considered nu-metal. For me my favourite is definitely Deftones, they are incredible live. I also like KoRn and Limp Bizkit.

They're like rap rock mixed with alternative metal. And they are rap metal, not really a nu metal band. Anthrax created the first piece of rap metal, though.

With the exception of maybe 5 songs, Limp Bizkit is a joke of a band with a complete D-bag for a lead singer.

I was HUGE into them last summer before I made a last.fm account, bought all their albums and listened to a ton of them, then I just stopped. Then I got my new laptop, transferred their songs, and haven't listened to em since.

Nu-metal? I guess Disturbed, but that's only because they're decently good, not that they're one of my all time favorites.

I see. I still like their first album, but I've grown out of them for the most part.

The other albums aren't as good anyway. Slipknot was a great band but they lost a bit of their quality with each album they released. Slipknot was awesome, Iowa was great, Vol. 3 was decent and All Hope Is Gone is just what the name indicates...

And yes, Slipknot is my answer on this thread and Spineshank comes close after.

I'd have to say Disturbed, mostly because they put on a hell of a live show.

System of a Down, easily. Though Disturbed is great too, and I'm also somewhat into Slipknot because of Joey Jordison.

Korn are the only tolerable one I've listened to yet. Their debut is not bad at all. Life is Peachy is alright as well, but I haven't listened to either in quite a while.

Slipknot, System of a Down, Deftones. You could argue the genres but all seem to have a bit of Nu Metal in them.

Disturbed. Not much about the band stands out to me, but I like the Ten Thousands Fists album. There are a lot of catchy hooks.

I don't really like Nu Metal but I guess System of a Down is pretty good. Hypnotize was a good album.

Chino Moreno - "We told **** not to lump us in with nu metal because when those bands go down we aren't going to be with them."

Thought that was interesting.
