there you have it my list of my worst bands (idiots) whatever you want to call them.
All R&B rubbish with "homeys" shouting "Yeah, yeah," and waving their hands about like epileptic windowlickers.
Every song in the top ten.
Every boy/girl band to grace the earth.
Anything "nu metal" - whatever that means.
...and Eminem, of course. What a prat.
any reference to the Slipknot version?? did one band cover the other?
i don't really like slipknot but wait and bleed was alright..
hehe, infact, the 2 songs i liked off that first (major) album were the 2-minute ones with pop song arrangements :)
i've had a long day :)

...so you criticise it, yet you're not sure what it is.
tell me, have you ever considered a career at the Daily Mail? :)
although you're right, nu-metal is cack

Limp Bizkit's music is all right. The lyrics are appalling.
Chimera have a half decent album.
Metallica went a bit nu-metal with 'I disappear'
Spineshank are nu-metal, they are good.
Nu-metal is like trip-hop. It's a lazy journalistic term to lump a load of bands together. Any genre that has Limp Bizkit, Spineshank and Chimera in. Is clearly far too wide a genre.
Bands have had a nu-metal sound/approach before nu-metal existed. I would say Deftones, Everclear, Faith No More, RHCP and Rage Against the Machine (cited as a big Limp Bizkit influence).
Nu-mteal is a lazy journalistic term for a lot of different styles. Saying all nu-metal is cack really encompasses far too many different styles, which I doubt you actually think are all cack.
Nu-metal to me ecompasses not only lazy journalism, as you say, but also lazy music making. bands like Everclear and Faith no More are/were superb bands who put a lot of effort into their sound and style. As a result there's a noticable difference between their songs. the whole "image over content" attitude and sound of most nu-metal bands are what puts me off them, it's all baggy trousers, chains, vests and bending over. it's tedious, it's repetitive, it's derivative and it's forced. Total Guitar magazine (i think) had "Linkin Parks top 5 riffs, tabbed!!!" a couple of issues ago and i kid you not, there was not a sing one that didn't involve the same sequesnce of notes and not one of them ventured past the 5th fret... except on the odd power chord. THAT'S lazy songwriting and i just feel if you're being paid an obscene amount of money to do a job most people would kill for, you should at least put some effort in, like their Everclear/F.N.M/Rage predecessors.
happily, Nu-metal was pretty short lived and only a few remnants of total dross remain, a lot of those bands have grown up, refined their sound and have moved out of the all-encompassing generic nu-metal label.. which can only be a good thing!!
but for the record, i did, and still do, think all TRUE nu-metal is cack :)
>Limp Bizkit's music is all right. The lyrics are appalling
you got that right but i think they rule.probably 1 of the most well known songs from Limp Bizkit Is Nookie (and not the remix,the original).Limp bizkit is my top band.
Oh and Nazi I judging by your name I'd thought you'd be more of a 'Romper Stomper soundtrack' person.
