Still waiting for a quality vinyl rip :/ I'm a nerd for picking out mixing/mastering differences

If nu-metal means 90's post-hardcore with no rapping, sure

Like I said this entire album is a love letter to Mind Over Matter, Stillsuit, Vision Of Disorder, Quicksand, Bad Brains and other L.I. / East Coast post-hardcore bands. Listen to them then listen to this and it's clear as day

Came out after 1995? check



Loud guitars in literally any tuning below e-standard? check



Good vocalist who can scream but also sing really catchy melodies? check



No guitar solos, double bass or progressive streak to be found? check



Damn I guess Glassjaw really is nu metal... they literally fit every one of sputnikmusic.com's requirements

Dude, this! After I checked out Mind Over Matter I could definitely see what the band was doing here. I’m surprised that after all these years Glassjaw still want to make aggressive records considering that when they play old songs they seem a bit more mellowed out

I mean Deftones to me (particularly 2000-present) has always leaned a bit more to the alternative side of metal musically, but the first two albums are some of the definitive nu metal albums (White Pony arguably belongs there too), and Deftones themselves really did kind of associate themselves with the nu metal scene back then as that was the niche they fit into at the time. Don't entirely agree with it but it makes total sense why many refer to them as a "nu metal band".



Glassjaw on the other hand... never sounded nu metal, never were really apart of that crowd, and pretty much only gets thrown in the nu metal conversation because Ross Robinson produced the first two albums.

I've never understood how anyone can seriously consider WP to be a nu-metal album. It only has 1 song that can be properly labeled nu-metal. The rest is so much different than anything nu-metal has ever offered and barely fits any of the nu-metal cliches of that time.
