Oh, boy. People will hate me for this. How joyous.
Nu metal is a subgenre of metal which takes influences from that and blends it with elements of other music genres such as hip hop, funk, industrial, and grunge.
Vocalists use various techniques including clean singing, rapping, screaming, and growls.
Guitarists (and/or bassists) will drop-tune their instrument in effort to produce a heavier sound, although some guitarists, like James Shaffer of Korn, will use seven-string guitars to either mod the sound and/or expand the range. This may be the part grunge kicks in, since grunge takes influence from sludge metal, which takes influence from doom metal...you get the point.
Drummers will mostly use two kick drums, although using a twin pedal is okay.
Some nu metal bands often bring in electronic sound into the music; often using drum machines, samplers, synthesizers, programming, etc.
Lyrics are often focused around personal issues, like drug addictions, depression, neglect, alienation, etc etc. Wait, doesn't that just make nu metal a heavier version of grunge?
Some notable nu metal bands include Korn (the genre's pioneers), Slipknot (although they do not use a specific label and let people come up with whatever they want), P.O.D., Sevendust, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, the early works of both Evanescence and Deftones, and more.

"rEaL" metalhead: Ugh...you disgust me. You think nu metal is the best thing that happened in the whole wide world? Blasphemy!
Nu metalhead: Yeah...right. Once you get a taste of Limp Bizkit, you'll-

Ordspråket ''Nu har du grävt dig djupt ner i keson'' används när någon gjort något dåligt eller är lite fel.
''NEJ NU HAR DU GRÄVT DIG DJUPT NER I KESON MARKUS!!!'', eller ''Nu är du lite djupt ner i keson Johan''

- for the bad of human kind and everything! (*shield*)
A satirical toast in french-gibberish, when abuser's minions, the flying monkeys, have succeeded a mission of sabotage, or have shielded the abuser from taking responsibility and is given a reward for these actions. the greeting is followed by a shield gesture, lifting imaginary shield in front, parrying an imaginary sword and making a ‘Ching!’- sound.

Did you notice how they sabotaged the whole investigation of ethical misconducts to cover up a huge corruption at the very top of the university?
