Get the Metal Penismug. metal made by sellout bands like Disturbed or overly angsty metal like Skillet that have songs where the lyrics are ridiculous for the age group they are marketed for (middle schoolers). music generally played by immature or young people to feel angsty to lyrics like "i'm a monster" which make no sense and are for people too stupid to realize that living in the first world is pretty nice most of the time.

Get the Pubic Metalmug. Someone whose brain has left them for listening to Burzum. Usually the result of bad parenting and/or asshole p.e. teacher. They believe there should not be any other bands besides the one they like and that noone can have a different opinion.

Get the Metal elitistmug. A genre of music that appeared in the 90's. It uses elements of Hip-Hop and Hardcore. The style is not Metal, it is associated with Metalcore. Examples of Nu-Metal are:
Korn
Linkin Park
Slipknot
Nu-Metal is hated with a passion by Metalheads, yet, without Nu-Metal tons of Metalheads wouldn't exist. Nu-Metal provides a good middle ground for people who like pop music but aren't ready for the growls, and shrieks of Metal. Most people who get into Nu-Metal end up listening to Metal afterwards.
Korn
Linkin Park

Nu-Metal is not Metal.

Get the nu-metalmug. Nu-metal is a non- existant sub-genre of metal. Though common cited as a "genre" it is merly a segregation between the larger family of metal.
Nu-metal is classified by it's heavy, downtuned guitar riffs, complementary bass riffs, and unique drumming/pecussion style.
Nu-metal comes under fire constantly because of it's "simple" guitar riffs, angry singing/screaming style, and the appearance of it's bands.
These arguements are very closed minded and ignorant, however. Those who complain about the simple guitar riffs fail to elaborate on how this is detrimental to the actual music: the repetitive arguement is that the guitarist fails to show any talent, but music isn't about the band, it's the sound they make. That is a fact, as any self respecting band of any genre will tell you that. There is also the arguement that "all the bands sound alike". This is true, but is just as common in other musical genres. For example, the nu-metal band "Limp Bizkit" can be closely compared to the band "Reveille". However, you can also say that Jack Johnson sounds similar to Jason Mraz, and AC/DC sounds like Guns N' Roses, and Green Day sounds like Sum 41 and so on. Every genre has bands that sound alike, because they are a genre! They are the same kind of style!
People, open up your eyes! Music is for everyone! There is no reason to critize an entire fanbase of people because they like something different than you.
Coming from a guy who likes Dave Mattews and Slipknot at the same time. C'mon, times are tough, share some love.

Some Nu-metal bands include: Linkin Park, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Reveille, Genuflect, Taproot, and what ever other bands you think "should" be nu-metal, but remember, it's not really a genre.

Get the Nu-metalmug. Similar to nu-metal, the n00b-metal genre relies on songs lacking any '1337 skillz'. Their 3 track EP's can generally only be found on the artists' geocities webspace in WMA form.
Used when a band thinks of themselves as real metal but in fact are as technically skilled as an guitar playing epileptic in a room with a strobe light.
"I wish i could go to your n00b metal internet concert, but i have a Starcraft-themed 14th birthday to go to"
