Of course you don't. Really and truly, I need to reinstate this:

I almost feel sometimes that 90% of the users on this site have no idea what nu-metal is and refer to the genre as a bunch of Linkin Parks which is pretty terrible.

since Wiz is not here, it's up to me to school people in nu metal. Here are some examples:



Classic all-around nu metal: Mudvayne - L.D. 50; Nothingface - Violence; Nonpoint - Statement; Rikets - Anything For The Devil EP



funky nu metal: One Minute Silence - Buy Now, Saved Later; Skindred - Roots Rock Riot; Incubus - S.C.I.E.N.C.E.; Snot - Get Some





industrialized nu metal: Crossbreed - Synthetic Division; Static-X - Wisconsin Death Trip; Dope - Felons & Revolutionaries; American Head Charge - The War Of Art



REAL mainstream nu metal: Disturbed - The Sickness; P.O.D. - Satellite; Papa Roach - Infest; Twin Method - The Volume Of Self



harsh/borderline nu metal: Soulfly - Soulfly; Sepultura - Roots; Skinlab - Revolting Room (remark: it sucks though); Helmet - Meantime

"Bad Songs:

Hurricane (Kanye just doesn't work)"



Kanye West doesn't even appear on the album. Do your research.

Basically, Nu-Metal is heavier than Hard Rock (usually) and softer than Metal. It incorporates various genres into metal (rap, funk, industrial, reggae, latin, etc).

Honestly, all I've heard from these guys is The Kill and one of the new singles, I kinda thought they were post-hardcore, but I may be way off on that.
