RULES
- Rule 1: "Artist - Song (Year)" Format and Informative Titles Posts only - If you are submitting a song include the artist and song name in the title. If posting a discussion/news, title it appropriately. Give readers a good idea of what the discussion/news entails.
Format: Artist - Song Title (Additional Info Here)
Rule 2: Images / Video Links / Memes - Don't spam r/numetal with images and video links without discussion. You should be able to add your 2 cents to the post and not try and karma mine. Memes are permitted within good taste and must be nu-metal themed.
Rule 3: Leaks and Piracy - No posting illegal download links, leaks or asking for leaks. Breaking this rule will result in at least a 2 week ban.
Rule 4: Reposts & General Posting Guidelines - No reposting of songs/topics within two months of each other. Please check that your song or topic hasn't been posted within that time. Please refrain from posting a band's material if you or another user has submitted the same band in the past 24 hours.
Rule 5: No Full Album or Spotify Posts - No "Full Album" YouTube posts. Try to just post one song at a time. Please use YouTube for song posts as it is a free service.
Rule 6: Self-promotional spam - Posting your own band is allowed, but know the rules. We encourage learning about new bands and love when they stop by and post a new video. But if you drop a video and leave, we will label it as spam.
Rule 7: Selling/Trading - Ticket sales, ticket trades, and other offers where money is involved are not permitted
Rule 8: Don't be an asshole - Don't be an asshole. Before you post or reply to a comment, think "Am I being an asshole?" If you're like, "....yeah, I'm being an asshole." Stop, go look at yourself in the mirror, and self reflect. Once you're good, come back and be a good person. We're a community here, let's act civil.
Rule 9: "It's not nu-metal" - Ok so this is a difficult one to enforce as the definition of nu-metal isn't usually the same for everyone. However, there's certain songs and bands that just are not nu-metal. We'll obviously allow the occasional nu-metal phase of bands and artists like...Vanilla Ice. Anyway, read our wiki and just use some common sense please.

Is there any artists like this? Or albums/songs?
So starting like five months ago, I started really listening to System of a Down, now one of my favorite bands, I’ve listened to them before but never just focused on them, anyways I started looking for other bands like them, then I was introduced to nu-metal which I new existed just never really listened to it, two years prior is when I started listening to metal and other bands of that nature, moving on from that, I just don’t find anything anymore that fits what I like, I like singing but not just full on singing, I like to have it work and be good, kind of like slipknot’s psychosocial, and systems B.Y.O.B, and question, is there any artists (or albums/songs) like that? If so I would really appreciate it if you would share that with me thank you and hope you all have a nice day

Is Nu Metal something that had an end date?
Do people think it is like grunge, where it was a 90’s thing and in the 00’s it because post grunge?
Are newer artists making Nu Metal now Post Nu Metal?
Personally, I am conflicted.

Who is touring the US rn?
Or in the near-ish future
I know Cold and Orgy. In This Moment is touring. Who else?
There’s a lot going on in the late summer and early fall (Slipknot, Korn, Limp Bizkit, In This Moment again), but what’s in the near future?
I usually go through Ticketmaster every month or so but sometimes you miss who is playing bc you only see the headliners listed.
