Get the nu metalmug. The product of Roadrunner Records, MTV, and post-grunge. It involves teenage angst-based lyrics, simple downtuned guitars, and gimmicks to distract from the deficiencies of the music.

Get the nu-metalmug. Okay, first off, Linkin Park and Mudvayne fucking own. Second, Mudvayne is not nu-metal. They are ALT-METAL. Same thing goes for LP. Third, people have opinions. You can listen to whatever the fuck you feel like listening to. K? K.

Get the Nu-Metalmug. A form of heavy metal. There are many people on this site that says it's the, "light beer" of metal. Have you even listened to any of slipknot? Most of your taste in metal can hardly be called music. Bands of nu metal actually have something you can enjoy listening to. If you still think it's wimpish, listen to people=shit by slipknot. Then tell me that nu metal is for pussies. Because honestly, you don't know metal.
Slipknot is a great band. All of the extreme metal bands are shit, it's just a riff of electric guitar and a random scream every now and then. Nu metal is the only thing that people with a shred of insanity can enjoy out of the metal genre

Get the Nu Metalmug. Pronounced: (Mallcore, New-Met-al)
Form of noise pollution and/or contamination, mostly disgused as "music", with badly played guitars, simple drums, silly lyrics, stupid looks and crap vocals, with a bit of rap there, shit here...
Long life to TRUE METAL, and classical music!
