NU METAL

I have zero clue who 24-7 Spyz are and I wouldn't put Living Colour anywhere close to FNM or 311

Living Colour are much closer to FNM than FNM are to Crazy Town.

Living Colour are much closer to FNM than FNM are to Crazy Town.

Well......yeah?

That's kind of like saying "That chunk of gold is closer to platinum than platinum is to a pile of dog shit"

Why are we even talking about Crazy Town?!?

Well......yeah?

That's kind of like saying "That chunk of gold is closer to platinum than platinum is to a pile of dog shit"

Hehehehehe ...it's all great.







Except crazytown

Every genre becomes its own caricature after a certain period of time. When the time of Nu Metal - thankfully - began to come to an end, Crazy Town were that caricature.

And let‘s not forget another highlight of the genre: Methods Of Mayhem
Oh, and hasn‘t Vanilla Ice also released a killer Nu Metal album?

Suicidal Tendencies was a pre Nu metal band that was hard to categorize. More thrashy sounding but with a lot of the eclectic elements.

311 is Nu Metal?

Influencers

Tim Mahoney and Vernon Reid both have ridiculous pedal boards. The last Rig Rundown with Vernon Reid honestly felt like a parody of itself with how much crap there was. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a different pedal and sound for every note on the fretboard

I’m going to lose my fucking mind if Suicidal Tendencies is referred to as a “Pre-Nu-Metal” band again.

They are Thrash OG’s. They helped create the damn genre.

They did come before so technically they are 'pre'.
And arguably they influenced both camps.

 

[likitlikeyoulikeit]

Not even gonna lie, I still, in my mind, consider them a punk band with thrash tendencies. Like Metallica was a thrash band with punk tendencies.....but I'm weird.

 

[Whizzinby]

Im gonna go rock some “Pre Nu Metal” Mozart.
