super crazy dope nostalgic nu-metal thread

THat Kittie song/video is seriously awesome.

Kittie were great.

Yes, AWESOME! That's exactly the type of stuff I want in this thread!

I wish that one awesome snake river conspiracy song/video was on youtube!

The one where she goes, "HEY!!!!! YOU FUCKING FAGGOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Anyway, 2 videos I like even though I wouldn't consider either band "nu metal" but they released albums around the time that definitely had a bit to do with it, and in ministry's case, they were ripped off by static-x, spineshank, etc.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXCh9OhDiCI = jesus built my hotrod by ministry (featuring gibby!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGT1QRyVYvY You can tell this song was written by Rivers Cuomo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IylmlqXTafg I remember blasting this Cold song all the time though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WlstnPwZ9g crazy town - drowning... I remember them releasing this after the success of Butterfly and then they totally just fell into obscurity

Fuck yeah, Stupid Girl rules. I think Cold were actually awesome.. great guitar tones, always.

I have the Dawn of the Dead shirt the drummer's wearing..

Cold had a sort of maturity to them a lot of nu-metal stuff didn't have.

I haven't seen that Limp Bizkit video in YEARS, fuck... I haven't seen it since I was 8 years old!

Papa Roach were my favourite band back then, always loved 'Broken Home'.

Oh and that claymation Slipknot video rules, MTV would never show it during the day but it was always played way late at night.

That Glassjaw song also rules, always loved that also.

Damn, I miss these bands.

YoU CAN'T TRUST A MAN WHO'S tHE GOVERNER!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDiC83Usn2s HEEEEY MANNNN NICEEEE SHOTTTT

Sucks there's no video for this on youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=XEfU4ss98ZA&feature=related This Staind song is awesome, it should have been a single. I love the album they have with the gun cocked at the beginning and then the gunshot at the end. Dark.

http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=KT33...eature=related another Staind song I used to love

Oh man, TORMENTED by Staind is great. One of the first cd's I ever burnt. I printed out the covers too and made a "real" cd of it. Seriously awesome album -- why did they stop sounding like this?

"I hate my fucking life. *gun cock.* HARMONIC GUITAR RIFF*

Most of these bands became totally shitty. I liked Papa Roach until they started puffing their hair and wearing eyeliner and shit... they became horrible then.

The first 3 cd's I owned were Papa Roach's Infest, Offspring's Americana and Alien Ant Farm's ANThology (another good album). This was in 2001 so I was 7 going on to 8 years old :)

And that guy from Glassjaw, all the bands he's been in recently have been TERRIBLE. Ever heard Head Automatica? Might as well listen to My Chemical Romance.

http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=JnpT...eature=related X-Executioners with that rapper from Linkin Park and the guy with big hair from Static X on guitar.

It's funny how something like Coal Chamber has aged incredibly badly while Kittie just sound amazing now. I'm clearly getting old.

Insane how I used to find Kittie hilarious but now I quite like them!

Coal Chamber now sounds hilarious, so yes, you're right with that.

nu-metal = the worst genre ever invented

made by those with no class for people with no class!

Are you going to tell me they were "ahead of their time" next? Because I will throat punch you.

She's a very fine drummer. Better than most metal drummers. Ahead of their time, probably not - unfortunately, the only 'ahead of their time' bands in nu-metal were probably Primus, RATM and Janes Addiction (the first two remain utterly shite). Oh, and Korn, obviously.

What's class got to do with silly music?
