Ragepredate the explosion of nu-metal, but there’s no denying that the L.A. band’s sound was co-opted by plenty of nu-metalheads, who mimicked RATM’s aggressive hip-hop/metal hybrids. The boiling funk of 1996’s “Bulls on Parade,” a strident critique of global war policies, is a particular touchstone.
The Florida-based Skrape—whose members have gone on to play with Evanescence, Black Label Society, and Dope—lives up to its moniker. Bruising riffs, festering bass lines, and hair-blowing vocals give “Waste” an abrasive edge.
In a sea of post-Korn bands, Mudvayne stood out from the pack. This was partly due to the group’s topiary-caliber facial hair and colorful body paint, but also because of a willingness to foment chaos. With its jackhammering drums, lurching-stomach bass line, and exorcism vocals, 2000’s “Dig” feels like a car falling apart while traveling at 60 mph...
Puddle of Mudd found crossover success with the nu-grunge power ballad “Blurry,” but established their nu-metal bona fides with 2001 debut single, “Control.” A hulking tempo and prowling guitar riffs—not to mention loud-soft-loud dynamics and Wes Scantlin’s clenched-teeth sneer—embody the power struggle (sexual and otherwise) described in the lyric...
Staind took the Puddle of Mudd approach to its career and quickly realized that mellower songs would bring crossover success. (In fact, frontman Aaron Lewis is half of nu-metal’s “Islands In the Stream,” i.e. his live duet on “Outside” with Fred Durst.) Still, there’s no denying that 1999’s “Mudshovel,” with its aggro guitar windmills, half-spoken ...
The L.A. band Spineshank splices nods to electro-metal and rap-rock (specifically, a 311-conjuring, harmonies-filled chorus) into its gruff 2001 contribution to the canon. It’s a wise move: Not only is “New Disease” the band’s lone charting song, but it has aged far better than many other nu-metal tunes.
This 2002 rock hit is a quintessential example of nu-metal’s seamless hybridization. Fleet-footed grooves and neck-wrenching riffs add an angst that’s magnified by vocalist Stephen Richards, who screams the word “break” in the line “In case of fire, break the glass” to make sure everybody is aware of his deep emotional anguish.
Upon the release of 2000’s Spit, KiTTiE was often considered a novelty, since the band was helmed by teenage sisters Morgan and Mercedes Lander and their schoolmate Fallon Bowman. There’s nothing kitschy about “Brackish,” however: The furious metallic maelstrom lights up like a pinball machine around Morgan Lander’s banshee wail and slam-poet murmu...
Prior to hitting nu-metal paydirt with Soulfly, Max Cavalera was in heavy metal legends Sepultura. “Bleed”—a 1998 tune graced by the party-moshing presence of Limp Bizkit’s Fred Durst and DJ Lethal—is best categorized as a punishing thrash-metal song with a cathartic low end.
Sevendust was one of the early beneficiaries of nu-metal: Their ferocious 1997 self-titled debut went gold on the strength of politically aware songs such as “Black,” a chugging hard rock song that, according to drummer Morgan Rose in 1998, is “not strictly about racism, but it takes a little tap on it.” “[Vocalist LaJon Witherspoon] states it pret...

19 de mar. de 2023 · Ray Charles, Prince, Kurt Cobain, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Thom Yorke, David Bowie, Kanye West. All of these artists certainly worked very hard at their craft, but they also seemed to simply shed brilliant, culture-shifting works of art like it was accidental. Nu-metal has no geniuses.

14 de oct. de 2020 · Nu-metal was a genre that had its tongue buried in its cheek and was prepared to never take itself too seriously, but when Crazy Town scored a number one single with the kind of cringe worthy shit that could be a Robin Thicke song, everyone was offended.
