Nü metal has been a genre that I've always enjoyed. It allows the aspect for artists infuse different genres into the aspect of heavy metal. Whether it be hip hop, grunge, alternative, it all falls into the category of nü metal. I always have been intrigued in the flow of the genre and how it can differ depending on the artists interpretation of the genre. There are some many new emerging nü metal artists emerging from the scene that are proving that the genre is far from being dead. Here is my list of 5 new and old nü metal bands that have redefined metal or are on their way too. 5. SlipknotFavorite Song: Snuff Favorite Album: .5: The Grey Chapter If you as anyone who listens to nü metal they probably will sight Slipknot as one of their favorite bands from the genre. They are a classic to the genre and are practically metal gods. They have shaped the music with their insane live shows, mysterious persona with their masked faces, and haunted lyrics. I'm sure most people have heard Slipknot at least once in their life and the band. 4. IslanderFavorite song: Cold Speak Favorite album: Violence & Destruction Islander are no strangers to this blog, they are definitely one of my favorite nü metal bands. They have amazing music that is both upbeat and heavy they pull from several different genres. After listening to Islander you will definitely be in a better mood because their music will genuinely put you in a better mood. 3. DedFavorite Song: Inside Favorite Album: mis•an•thrope Ded, probably most recognizable from their completely white contacts, they're probably one of my favorite band's who just emerged in 2016. This band is definitely going to be huge in the future so definitely check out this band. They're music definitely screams nü metal is definitely still thriving in the music scene today and and isn't dying out soon. You'll definitely be hooked on Ded's music upon the first listen, I know I definitely was. 2. Cane HillFavorite Song: St. Veronica Favorite Album: Smile I recently got into Cane Hill, after hearing their music when looking for bands to play on the radio show I host All Warped Up! Instantly, I fell in love with their music and have been listening nonstop. Though, I'm sure most of you have heard of them if you are involved with Warped Tour bands since they did play in 2016. Cane Hill's music sound like a mix of Korn, Slipknot and Marilyn Manson and I'm a huge fan of all of those bands/artists. Definitely checkout this band if you haven't yet, you won't regret it I promise. 1. Linkin ParkFavorite Song: Wretches and Kings
Favorite Album: Hybrid Theory Linkin Park were one of the first rock band's I ever fell in love with as a kid, so I had to include them. Linkin Park introduced me to a new concept of music that I probably wouldn't have been super interested if it weren't from them. They combine elements of hip hop and rock n' roll together so seamlessly you can just fall in love the delivery of the lyrics. Linkin Park have something special about them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you guys enjoyed today's countdown! Please leave me a comment with your favorite nü metal bands! Also, I'm thinking of created a set schedule of when to post content for you on the blog instead of posting sporadically like I have been doing for the past year now. (Can you believe Feel The Pulse is nearly 1 years old now? They grow up so fast!) Until then, See you in the pit! 🤘 Mari
