Remember When Nu-Metal Was The Future?

Maybe it was MTV, but I recall that one point a few years ago (maybe more?) there was a huge hype about this new hybrid of music that was going to revolutionize genres. Most of it was crap, though I do admit nodding along to some KoRn in my time.

Still. How times change.

It was never going to last, thank fuck. I remember hating it, but being fairly certain that at least it was a horror trend I could just ride out.
Any genre where Korn are considered innovators and trend-setters will surely enjoy a fairly swift decline into laughing stock status, no?

NU METAL WAS GOING TO SAVE UUUUUUUUUSSSSSSS.

I hope he didn't genuinely believe that. Who could be so delusional?

This decade is going to be remembered for 9/11, GWB, nu-metal and Britney Spears.
We're going to be so pitied by school children in years to come.

I'm going to have to agree with you on that one. I remember at the time feeling terribly nostalgic for the '90s.

For me, nu-metal=horrible flashbacks to age 15 or so when everyone was listening to Linkin Park and I was listening to the Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam and Nirvana, and therefore thought of as a total freak. I gave nu-metal a try but you could tell even then that it wasn't going to last.

word. it's kinda become mainstreamed and people don't really bitch about it being nu-metal anymore. it's like it's just part of music now.

i liked and do like a lot of bands that people label 'nu-metal' or whatever.

Punk isn't dead.

Nu-Metal isn't dead.
Death Metal is alive.
