 Nu metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nu metal bands often feature aggressive vocals that range from melodic singing akin to pop music and death metal music styles, guttural screaming and shouting from various forms of metal music and metalcore types, and rapping.
Nu metal (also called aggro metal or nü-metal, using the traditional heavy metal umlaut) is a musical genre that has origins in the mid 1990s.
The origins of nu metal can be pinpointed to the Lollapalooza music festival in the 1990's which increased the exposure of bands who performed brands of metal and metal-influenced alternative music that had little to do with traditional genre approaches (see Alternative metal).

 The Hair Hole: Nu Metal SUCKS!
The down-tuned nu metal sound, however, is simply absurd.
So with the same beat and essentially same feel, structure, and sound to every song, it is fair to say that all nu metal is in fact one song.
The noughties are here and with them we have nu metal, essentially grunge with added gayness, to all intents and purposes.

this is why those bands on the radio are usually not metal-- it's not the fact that they are refusing to be played, it's the fact that the music on the radio is dumbed down, generally, for the listening audience.
There would be no heavy metal radio anywhere of any kind if it were simply a case of metalers saying andquot;We won't allow our music to be on the radio.andquot; The fact is, most listening audiences don't like metal, so metal has a negligible radio presence.
I'm not sure what Usurper means by andquot;a band that is really metal NEVER plays on the radio.andquot; This seems to me to be a fallacious statement since no band actually andquot;playsandquot; on a radio but are actually played based on whether or not they are on a station's play-list.

 VH1.com : Guns N' Roses : Biography
The first new original G N' R song in eight years, the industrial metal sludge of "Oh My God" finally appeared on the soundtrack to the 1999 Arnold Schwarzenegger film End of Days.
G N' R Lies' inflammatory closer, "One in a Million," sparked intense controversy, as Axl Rose slipped into misogyny, bigotry, and pure violence; essentially, he somehow managed to distill every form of prejudice and hatred into one five-minute tune.
By 1996 Slash was officially out of Guns N' Roses, leaving Rose the lone remaining survivor from the group's heyday; rumors continued to swirl, and still no new material was forthcoming, though Rose did re-record Appetite for Destruction with a new lineup for rehearsal purposes.
