There’s a lot of trash and straight up harmful garbage in your special music that holds such meaning and culture, get real dude. People can’t take the positive aspects and characteristics out of something and use it for something else? Are you aware of how culture is shared in general, not just music? Horrific take you and quite a bit of black people take yourselves too seriously and think you need a trademark on anything that could be considered black, when black culture wasn’t born out of some void in space completely new in the first place.

    I'm one of those old guys that has been a Korn fan since their first album hit stores when I was 18. I remember the numetal tag was brought in strictly to be insulting because elitist metal heads hated it and "rap-rock" didn't stick or even really make sense. They also insulted each other within the various metal types, like death metal fans hating on "sold out" Metallica and anything with some clean vocals or actual melodic guitar work being called crap. I'm glad now people just see numetal as another subgenre of metal, but as a guy who always enjoyed almost every type of metal throughout my life, I still don't like the term much.

    I don't think Nu Metal is a bad thing to be called. Korn is Nu Metal. They came with a new sound and continued to build on it. They have always been at the top of that list and are way beyond the majority of others in the same sub genre. I don't consider Metallica to be a thrash band anymore. They left that behind in the 90s, but they still carry that label because they were one of the first and they are the biggest band to come from that sub genre. Korn is Korn, but they will always be labeled as a Nu Metal band. It should be a badge of honor, considering how many others are not around anymore.

    I love metal, but people always bring up the past with the bands views and I get it some people fucking suck as people, but that doesn't mean everyone else listening sucks too. some people are awesome especially metal lovers I have never meant a kinder soul or energetic one as those who love to rock!

    and not even... i mean. i dont know if you agree but Korn's sound, as a whole, is unique to me. I've never heard not one song by them and thought it was any other band other than them. Jon's voice is unique, and their melodies sound unique as well.

    Not all Nu Metal bands are rotten ones like Korn, Slipknot, System Of A Down, Disturbed, Deftones, Godsmack, Drowning Pool, And Papa Roach are pretty awesome I consider bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, POD, And Saliva more Rap Metal Or Rapcore then Nu Metal because they do way more rapping while the other bands I mention do a bit too they do far more singing, screaming, growling, And harmonizing then rapping and even when they do rap it is in a more sing song melody yeah.

    I didn't know what else to call Nu-metal, those were my formative years, and I grew up, listening to that music, hard rock doesnt just work.

    Korn was the least "rapping"... the jibberish often is categorized as such for some reason. Alice In Chains hates being called grunge. They said they prefer "heavy metal", which they are the most heavy grunge band. It's a common theme for pioneers of genres to want to be associated with the genres they loved/were influenced by rather than creating their own.

    All the bands that are listed in Nu Metal on google have a similar feel. So i guess it works.
