A garbage term where anything new, which people can't reconcile with straight archetypal Hard Rock, Metal, Punk, or Rap, goes. To give an example, while Linkin Park may be more closely associated with the 'mainstream' sides of punk, Slipknot is undoubtedly a prime figure of aggro metal. This is where the often misunderstood value of nu metal lies. It attempts an unconscious vocalization of primordial anger, perhaps even without deeper meanings, complex metaphors, or beautiful or technical instrumentals. And that is why it does something that no other genre has ever been successful in doing. It does not try to appeal to intelligence or to a technically minded ear. It appeals to anger, rage, frustration, and, yes, even to angst but all of these things only to feed Hatred. To truly arrive at hatred, it is necessary to sometimes incorporate a grabbag of other emotions, or even to disregard any sort of musical sanity. For example, it is to numetal we owe the completely original vocalization of hatred that is offered by Johnathan Davis in the popular song "Freak on a Leash." We hear insane grunts and intake of breath before we arrive at the end of the song, where Davis breaks into a hate filled nonsense utterance rap that is could never have existed in another genre. In short, the point of aggro is to bypass the conscious, to claw it away, and to reach and agitate the subconscious death drive and hatred of all living things, all humanity.
John Pobbleton sat down, unwound his dirt laden white ipod headphones, and turned on some nu-metal, specifically, "Freak on a Leash." For the next couple of minutes he began to furiously rip all of the skin off his index finger. After about three minutes, he bolted up from his seat, and commenced to systematically drive the bone of his index finger through the now seemingly paperthin skulls of everyone in the room. Luckily, the nu-metal drowned out all of their resistance and screams, and by the time the song was over, Pobbleton was the only sentient organism left in the room. Additionally, he felt much, much better.

A Christian variant of death metal.
Instead of being focused on the theme of death, Christian metal artists are empowered by the resurrection.

One of the most difficult enemies to kill in Dragon Quest, thanks to their high defense and immunity to magic. Only those who are lucky can kill them before they otherwise run away. Once they do die, they usually give a large number of experience points.
If you end up encountering a horde of metal slimes, you'll have a chance of killing one or two of them. I managed to land a critical hit on two of them. Additionally, I happened to kill a liquid metal slime on my first try.

a metal elitist is a person, typically an older metalhead guy or an incel teenage boy, who only listens to metal, likes to gatekeep metal, and will call you a poser if you like nu metal or popular metal bands. they are usually misogynistic and will call anything that doesnt fall under an extreme metal genre mid.
Me: “I like the bands Korn and Slipknot. I am also a fan of Metallica.”
Metal Elitist: “Theres no way you like that mallcore bullshit! All they do is sing about angst and dress like rappers! How could you possibly want to listen to a song where a man expresses his emotions? Poser!” *recommends you a black metal band that makes songs about killing jews*
