It's good to revisit Nu Metal frequently.

My worst music take is Nu Metal is better than Grunge.

For many years I thought he was saying "I do not dream about sex." But I also don't think I realized the song was even called A.D.I.D.A.S. and then I thought when it got a bit more break down like then he was screaming "I dream about sex and I'm sorry." So there was like a denial angle.

Is Nu Metal even really a genre? I dunno. It encapsulates everything from rap metal stuff to bad goth metal. I like Mudhoney and Alice In Chains but don't really like Pearl Jam or Soundgarden much anymore. I like Deftones and System of a Down but find Korn, Limp Bizkit, Deadsy, most any Family Values Your bands pretty goofy.

i sure wasnt, im feeling a weird mix of shame and shame-adjacent emotions now.

i didn't really know korn existed until i was 16 or so and found them through internet radio, but...
when i was 12 i got my first boombox and first album, the edited walmart version of Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water. I thought this was the way My Generation was supposed to sound. tbh i still like this version better.

Me and the other delinquent kid at my elementary school would hook up a Walkman to lovely battery powered bookshelf speakers and blast this album in the back of the bus

Korn spelled their name with an upper case R in homage to the band's favorite store: Toys R Us

i went to school with a dude who's last name was korn during the height of the dark times of nu-metal. he hated the music and also hated the association.

I understand that. I kind of hate Key and Peele for the same reason

i was listening to this while making fun of the punk/gothy kid next to me on the bus (nicely, we were buds) for having patches of bands with goofy names, such as operation ivy, black flag, and rancid. :cripes:

he was so much cooler than me

i listened to that self titled op ivy album a couple weeks ago and I surprised myself about how much of it I still remember perfectly. I was a poser punk kid at best but that album absolutely slaps

One time in college I was hanging out in my friend's dorm with some other guys and this guy put on Linkin Park. Nobody was really into it but were just kind of keeping mum until this guy Louis who had a really odd deadpan sense of humor was like "I never understood why this guy keeps singing "crawling in my poo poo". The guy playing the song was like "It's not poo poo it's skin." but Louis replied "Nope, pretty sure it's poo poo." They went back and forth but Louis just refused to concede that the lyrics said anything other than "crawling in my poo poo" until that guy got kind of angry and left. I guess it was kind of lovely but it sorta cracked me up. Well that's my Linkin Park story!

i hated them when they were hot poo poo, just overplayed and they bled into that soulless late 90s early 00s cultural void. even so, that guys growly whiny screams are permanently burned into my head, at the time they felt generic as hell but now I can better appreciate that guys voice. shame he dead because it would be interesting to see what music he would be making these days and i wonder what new music kids would be ft chester bennerton to get a signal boost

I never really hated them, but they were the poster children for a whole genre of suck, that they really didn't deserve being lumped in with.
And the stuff they sang about, like for real that's some serious poo poo that I think nobody wanted to deal with at the time, and even now tbh.
They expanded musically in their later stuff, and as Chester couldn't punish his vocal chords any longer, and a lot of fans were like boo you suck this isn't linkin park, which I kind of get, and a lot of artists would handle by expressing themselves in side projects, but is also really unfair.
I've definitely come to appreciate their stuff more now, removed from the cultural context of when it came out.

Im not sure if listening to nu metal in my formative years was beneficial to my mental health or not but lets be real - life is peachy loving slaps

We lied. We are not at war. There is no enemy. This is a rescue operation.
weird opinion: godflesh is actually the one true nu-metal band.
