Whiny crossbreed of 80s metal and any number of other elements (rap, hip-hop, and occasionally classical music). Usually involves people wanting to slit their wrists and die as bloodily as possible because they hate the world and everyone in it. Nu-metallers can probably be found in every town in the western world. You will know them by their Slipknot/Korn/Limp Bizkit/System of a Down hoodies and black cloud over their head that comes from being 15 and their parents 'not understanding them'.
Nu Metal CD: How can I feel pain, how can I feel pain, when you're being so supportive? Aaaaarghghghgkkk...
Nu-Metal Kid: *mumblings of approval, devil horn fingers* This stuff is good.
Man: Please, for the good of humanity, get some Pantera or Metallica or Guns N' Roses or something.

Style of music that combine hard lyrics and hardcore guitars, best exponents are Korn and limp bizkit, bands like anema and godsmack, some of the new metal stuff is really good, but some of it take a bunch of whinnie assholes that can't play shit.
Slipknow is not nu-metal! fuckers!!!

A joke normally a regular person wouldn't understand in any way or form . It incomprehensible to anybody who isn't metalhead-ish.
Hey , Alana go jump in the street ! -metalhead-ish guy
What? Why ?! - Alana La Verga
You wouldn't understand it's a metal joke , (Immense laughter goes off into the horizon ) - Metalhead-ish guy.

Death Core is widely loved and loathed in the metal "society".
The elitists against the other elitists telling the OTHER elitists that they are scene/pussy/faggot/etc.
Musically wise I would define it as a cross between U.S. derived Death Metal;
(Deicide,Cannibal Corpse,Suffocation,Death,Atheist,and the rest of the early Florida death metal staples.)
and Metal Core;
(Darkest hour,Nodes Of Ranvier,Parkway Drive,Sea Of Treachery,etc.)
But as far as lyricism i would have to say there are multiple
bands deriving from hardcore song subjects, done more fragmented than your original Hardcore writer, but the connections are found just the same.
I would also like to put in my two bit and express that the "SCENE" scene will die out in three years give or take,
and by that time, the posers and fakes will show who they really are and own up to their "trend".
so in the mean time,chill out and quit being so hostile towards a trend that will either die out, or evolve into something else.

the worst fucken music you can hear. Sounds like the vocalist is choking on a giant cock (ie; canibal corpse)Bands that make this music know they have no chance at selling music in the metal industry because the suck fucken ass. People who listen to this music want to kill them selves and the bands who make this music should be shot in the fucken head.
I was cutting my wrists last night listening to canibal courpse a death metal band (the worst fucken dick sucking band of all time) but i decided to wait and just slit my throat at there next concert.
