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.

What Genres Would You Like To See More Crossover With Numetal?
I love numetal and hybrid genres like numetalcore and the nu-adjacent 2000s alternative scene. I’m curious what other genres and scenes could work well with numetal. We seem to be in a decade of crossovers, genre blending, and experimentation. This has the potential to create some incredible numetal.

Why doesn’t this sound like Korn
Did My Time
That opening and continuing guitar always trips me up. Then the base line hit and I’m like, oh yeah, Korn

Looking for a “romantic” song for a wedding
I want a song that will be out of place enough for people to notice it at a wedding as a way of announcing to people it’s time for the ceremony. Currently Butterfly by Crazy Town is winning but looking for other options. Can be any metal genre really. Fav bands include Static X, Powerman 5000, Trivium, Soilwork, Slipknot

What song is this
05:14 UTC
i love how versatile this genre always was
like i could classify chevelle as nu metal and chimaira as nu metal and even though they are 2 very different sounding bands, it applies to both, am i alone in the fact that the very rap focused stuff i dont consider nu metal and instead would classify it as rap metal

Nu metal songs that use the same samples?
Do y'all know about any nu metal songs that contain the same samples as another? I noticed some over time while listening to playlists/full albums and now I wanna find more tbh.
Examples:
Comadose - Junkie + Statobardo - Another Education (The "Fresh" sample)
Helio - Family Circus + Ea$tcide - Glowbox (Some kind of buzzing ??? idk lmao)

Queer/Trans Artists?
So we all know that the scene is pretty homogeneous, mostly cishet men. Nothing wrong with that, of course, but are there any nu metal artists or bands out there that are queer or transgender? Would love some recommendations!

Any love for new POD album Veritas?
Any love for new POD album Veritas? I heard a couple of the singles few months back - DROP, and AFRAID TO DIE. Thought they were pretty fire. Finally got around to listening to the full album, Veritas and I dig it. Very 2000s nu metal throwback vibe.
Was a big fan in early 2000s with heir hits Alive, Youth of the Nation, Boom, Satellite. What do you guys think? Anyone listened yet? What are you thoughts
