"90's nu metal" *starts with a 00's song

@thomasandolf7365

RIP, Chester Bennington, Wayne Static and Dave Williams they may be gone but their music lives on forever.

@bizkit1167

I'm 38 years old. I have never felt older in my entire life.

@EagleLogic

Nu metal is exactly what gen z needs in this crazy world today

@trowabarton222

As a 37 year old, I feel like I'm just listening to my childhood being torn to pieces.

@demetricorcovelos1114

These kids have no clue of the emotional impact these songs had & continue to have

@FeroxX_Gosu

The tragic thing is that 3 of these epic nu metal singers are now passed away... 😪✝ RIP Chester, RIP Wayne, RIP Dave

@jimmygillard

RATM being lumped in to Nu Metal killed my soul a little

@savingprivatet8o356

I was really surprised slipknot didn’t make the list

@dotatwo5413

Life comes full circle, the new generation unironically likes Limp Bizkit.

@p3ewe798

Where is slipknot, deftones, mudvayne, sevendust, kittie, coal chamber, p.o.d., and staind

@Ghost8386

RIP Chester Bennington, David Wayne Williams, and Wayne Static.

@magnMINIown

Not letting them hear the Freak on a leash drop was sad

@mwj9433

If any Gen Z comes across this and are interested in exploring more of this music....Saliva, P.O.D., Mudvayne, Slipknot, early Incubus are few more that might tickle your fancy

@heavyflamerheresy2581

Flaw, mudvayne, staind, soulfly, guanno apes, incubus, POD, Saliva, Slipknot, sevendust are also nu metal. But Pantera is grove metal and RATM is funk/ rap metal, 2 og the bands that inspired nu metal.

@Zukadic

This video confirms what I’ve always known which is that Nu-Metal is the peak of music.

@davidtt8372

Deeply offended that "scene kids" and Linkin Park are associated

@blindchannelfinland

Nu metal is alive and well. Come here if you don’t believe. 🫡

@Kaspar.C0LD

"I LOVE HIM!" is not what anyone expects to hear when the topic is Fred Durst. Even Limp Bizkit fans.

@scientificallyunsta2

I’m a nu-metal fan but not sure I’d call RATM nu-metal. Also emo haircuts never featured in nu-metal gigs
