    I do actually like that song but i dont think it sounds like PJ/Ed.

    I can see this turning into a 10 page Nu-Metal bashing topic now.... lol

    Yeah, you´re right...they definately have a more nu-metalish guitar tunning than PJ

    Pfffft.

    There are at least 4 things wrong with this statement.
    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

    I always thought Pearl Jam was responsible for the Insane Clown Posse, but I guess give them credit for Korn and nu-metal too.

    Ever heard a band called Faith No More, started in the 80´s ?

    Speaking of Korn...it's funny to see them still around. I thought they died out long ago with Limp Bizkit. But I read they are still releasing new albums. That's impressive. Apparently people still go to their shows as well.

    i agree it is pretty impressive. i mean they lost their lead guitarist and drummer, but their still going on supporting fans touring and making new music (although its pretty shitty) ill give them props for sticking together, but as for their music, i think its pretty bad.

    oh and their new drummer.........terrible.

    Neither PJ or AIC had anything whatsoever to do with nu metal. Thank Faith No More.

    I think Faith No More (innovators) and RATM (Broke into Mainstream) are directly responsible for Nu-Metal, which isn't as bad as everyone says. Korn and System were great and POD, Linkin Park and Papa Roach were ok. Even the first two Limp Bizkit albums were ok, especially 3 dollar bill yall.

    This comes from someone whos two favorite bands besides PJ is U2 and Radiohead. So clearly there is some appeal to this type of music for me.

    BTW on Topic Korn sounds nothing like PJ. The begining of Blind actually sounds like one of the guitar breaks in the middle of Tool's song Opiate.

    also the way the singer from slipknot sings sometimes remind me of eddies vocal style. I´m not talking about the screaming but when the singer actually sings he kind of sounds like him.

    Korn has some good songs on their first couple albums, their music is nauseating now. By the way, they sound nothing like Pearl Jam. If Korn sounds like a heavy Pearl Jam then Metallica sound like a heavy Beatles.

    ahh, I'm no nu metal super fan but, I like a Korn song here and there. I think Issues & Untouchables are very solid. The rest are subpar in comparison.

    lmao. agreed. i used to be a die hard korn fan, untill like that last 3 albums, and pj is nothing like them.

    dumb thread.
    Just, not enough.
    I need more.
    Nothing seems to satisfy.

    melodic wise I agree on your point there. Beatles and metallica have same melodic structures and buildup

    I would think that Rage Against The Machine, Faith No More and Red Hot Chili Peppers have a lot more to do with the influence on nu-metal than Pearl Jam. And it would depend on what you mean by nu-metal really. But generally rap/funk fusing with metal riffs is what nu-metal is about, no?

    Without Korn metal would have died out....they took over metallicas throne and evolved metal....and they sound like pearl jam, especially "go" of vs. just not so heavy

    Lars dude I think you're on your own on this one.

    ...and I also think eddies vocal techniques have begun to resemble fred dursts. Take for instance the song comatose. Here it is fairly clear that he´s trying to expand his vocal cords and intonation.

    Yeah, I have to admit, first time I heard Comatose, I thought it was a Limp Bizkit song.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    how come nobody's mentioned the Deftones in a "nu-metal" thread? they're probably the only succesful nu-metal band still around making great music.
