> Mudvayne (best band ever)
> SoaD (not nu imo, but u get it)
> Staind (cuz its great no matter what you may say)
> KoRn (like to hear it sometimes.. old korn of course)

and then you have Tool, Dry Kill Logic, Soulfly, Evanescence, 36 Crazyfists, Disturbed.. a few bands that i listen to also once in a while.

Yeah, I'd never categorize Tool as Nu Metal, they're more some kind of Alternative Avantgarde Metal.

Tool isnt Nu-metal, the reason some consider them nu-metal is simply the fan base, most nu-metal fans I know also really like Tool.

Well, definately KoRn! I started out with them with Issues and I believe it's a remarkable album! I love all their albums actually, IMO Untouchables is an amazing album as well, my second favourite. Korn for me personally is the best nu metal act out there, the guys are great musicians and they remain original from album to album.

I also enjoy some songs by Evanescence, Mudvayne, and Linkin Park. I own one song from Godsmack, "Awake", amazing song. Same with Breaking Benjamin, "Forget it", it's really cool, but that's the only thing I know about the band, never heard anything else.

You must check both of them, really.- Godsmakc is simply amazing, Awake is teh song that gave them fame, but they have better songs. About Breaking Benjamin, "Forget it" is a really nice ballad, but the harder songs are way better.

I would like to recommend Soil. Great band, but in the first three albums, whe Ryab McCombs was the vocalist. they certainly lowered their level with the vocalist change.They're still pretty good, but with Ryan they were better.

Godsmack are nothing but a giant Alice in Chains rip-off with some extra metal influences. Seriously. I have no repesct for this band.

Actually kid, they're more a Metallica/Pantera rip-off. However, we can't deny they have amazing drums. Their lyrics slam and they're a very dynamic band. Obviously you haven't explored them enough. I strongly recomend you the "Faceless" album and "The Other Side" EP, and of course the "Changes" DVD. You'll find - mainly on the DVD that they are one of the best Nu/Altermnative bands nowadays.

There are many examples of comparisons to Alice in Chains. Sully Erna's style of singing mirrors that of Layne Staley's while the overall sound of the band's first two albums sound incredibly similar to the sound of the Alice in Chains album, Dirt. The logo of Godsmack is similar to the sun logo of Alice in Chains. Godsmack also released an album titled "Faceless" which is similar in name to Alice in Chains' first album Facelift. The band's name is identical to the title of an Alice in Chains song from the album Dirt, being God Smack. In their video, "Keep Away," a boy dressed and wearing a haircut very similar to Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley is seen as the main "character" of the video, though his face is never seen. The band even transcended from their heavy sound to a more mellow acoustic sound on their album The Other Side in the same manner Alice in Chains did in Sap and Jar of Flies. More recently, Godsmack have attempted to distance themselves from the Alice in Chains comparison with Erna stating in an interview with Matt Ashare, "I've just never really heard that in our music."

-From Wikipedia

Seriously, they've ripped off AiC's style, song title, logo and the acoustic/heavy album thing, it's disgusting, they don't deserve to be called musicians. I actually liked Godsmack when I first heard them because of the similarities to AiC which were at the time my favourite band but then when I found out a little bit more about them I lost all my respect for them. And I can't listen to music if I don't respect the artist.

Indeed, their first album's lyrics are just so, open and honest, and I respect those kind of song-writers.
Songs like "Broken Home", "Black Cell(?)" and "Between Angels and Insects" are truly great.

yes they rap more on the first album than the latter ones (and me that doesn't stand rap -.-"), but I think all the good lyric-writing and melodies kinda sums up for it, if you know what I mean.

System of a Down worked for me some time ago. Their first 2 albums kicked ass \m/

Have you listened to their new albums? Just wondering...I want to get some sort of opinion on them before I look into them you know...

Written by [user id=2084] on 01.05.2007 at 00:25

Well, if SOAD is more experimental then they are worth checking out...I think they've had shared vocals on harmonies in previous songs...Daron is actually singing whole songs? I heard a sample of one of their songs on a commercial on Much Music here in Canada once awhile ago (can't remember...) and it sounded like they really evolved...
