Yes, you proved your intellect by this post.

Dont try and insult my e-bestfriend, he obviously knows whats what. (by the way IM not racist, i just love it when they say to each other, for example boys in the hood. Pick me out one sentence in that film where they dont swear or say nigga!)

I like Deftones, but Deftones and Metal dont belong in the same sentence. They aren't metal, nu-metal, metalcore, or anything "metal". None of their albums ever were. Classify, if you must: Adrenaline, Around the Fur, and most of White Pony as "hard rock." Everything newer than that... well, classify them as "garbage."

nu-metal isn't metal anyway.

Man I have to say I do find it rather amusing to see people get heated up about such insignificant things. Why is everyone trying to prove each other wrong about whether this band is Nu-metal or not? Don't you realise you're not going to convince those who disagree with you otherwise? I don't see why everyone has to Genrefy (is that a word?) everything these days. I see it all the time on the net: arguments about whether a band is Nu-metal, thrash metal or Avante-garde folk hillbilly metal or whatever. Why the hell do you care so much? It's all music in the end and you shouldnt have to worry about not liking a band simply because they could possibly be considered Nu-Metal or whatever they are. IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!

PS. Whether a band uses drop tunings also DOES NOT make a difference whether a band is Nu-metal anyway. I could name many artists that used drop tunings years, even decades before Korn or Deftones came about.

You do realise even though i agree with what you say. That is the sort of comment that people get heated over and lets face it you must care to some extent for posting about it.
