ADMIT IT

I'd say they stopped at Saturday Night Wrist, they were still pretty nu metal before that

you should add Bottomless Pit on there

You're making an argument by posting a band that got a lot of their recognition from breaking away from the nu-metal archetype

No Linkin Park?

No band has managed to fuse hip-hop and metal as effectively as them.

Also Reanimation for all it's worth was quite an experimental release. It was my first foray into experimental music, and many of the tracks still hold-up well.

Also their instrumental demos are just as good as their released tracks, if not even better since they lack the admittedly cringy lyrics.

Hip-hop, metal AND IDM, even. Session from Meteora is pretty much a reworked An Eagle In Your Mind by BoC.

Also Cure For The Itch is a seriously glorious track, both the original and the remix, regardless whether you hate or enjoy Linkin Park.

come back to Sup Forumscord please

Deftones? Yes.

Nu Metal in general? No.

When I was 14-15, I was all about that shit. Any of you try listening to Adema, Ill Nino, Disturbed, or Mudvayne lately? Trust me, it's not good.
