I enjoy System of a Down, some disturbed and Linkin Park. I've never liked Slayer or Lorn or Slipknot though. Slipknot are gimmicky losers with mindlessly aggressive music, in a different but just as annoying way as bands like cannibal corpse. By now they are selling so many albums and are probably living so well they should have nothing to be angry about anymore.
System is my favourite "nu-metal", they're only faults are lack of solos, repetition and Serj's occasionally irritating voice.
I find nu-metal to be a lesser genre than some other forms of metal but in no way something that can be entirely dismissed.
Just think, if we had no nu-metal in the popular masses our alternatives would be dance, alternative (even though this genre's sometimes awesome, sometimes) and pop music, and that would suck.


Anywayz, I thought I'd just mention Opeth, just to be the first. How about that Blackwater Park album? Its somethin' ain't it?
