I thought Fred Durst was the father of Nu-metal.....but I'm obviously mistaken, he must be the grandfather

Faith no more owned in their day, they was great Angel Dust being one of their finer works of art

i half expected this topic to get flamed by nu-metal fans, ah well c'est la vie!

Blah, what's the name of that FNM song that goes "... It's on my head..."? Can't think of it and it's annoying me now :]

(and no, it's not called "It's on my head" tyvm)

PiE

Nevermind, remembered. It's "Ashes to Ashes" :]

FNM - ah yes the memories come flooding back. I remember seeing the promo poster in Metal Hammer for The Real Thing, and there was Mike patton in a kilt - and I thought - that man is cool (its amazing what impresses a young bloke in his innocence)

WhiteWashMan

the real thign is a tremendous album.
absoutley a classic.

cmon, like out of nowhere, epic adn just a whole lot of cool songs!

and angel dust was excellent as well.
a small victory still being one of my favourite songs.

it shoudlnt bother me no, ...no, no!

but it does.

and there you go, they started having scratching intheir songs as well.

When you compare FNM to Limp Bizkit for instance they were doing Metal-Rap in like 87-88 w/ "Introduce Yourself"-
I mean "We care alot" is just class:D

BTW:
Live at the Brixton Academy has to be in my top 5 albums
I played it so much I actually broke the tape, so I bought the CD and You Fat Bástards Video to compensate and 12 years on I'd still pop it in the CD player at the blink of an eye.

I agree with you WWMAN
Epic must go down as an all-time classic

[damn I've got the FNM bug....80p runs off to pump up the jam!]

There are nu-metal fans on boards?

Karl Hungus

This is someone's sig from another board...
I find it quite funny.
And mildly relevant.

Digimortal is Fear Factoy's best album yet.
Sepultura are more thrash now than ever.
Nu-metal is going strong.
Kurt Cobain was a genius.
Limp Bizkit will release more than 10 albums.
Slipknot are definitive death metal.
Fred Durst is in it for the music.
Andrew WK is the saviour of rock.
System Of A Down are the best thing to happen to metal in years.
Metallica are as fresh now as they were 19 years ago.
Blink 182 and Sum 41 are punk.
Kerrang is dedicated to all genres of rock and metal.
The mosh at Linkin Park gigs are as violent as they come.
Solos are crap.
Road Runner Records are dedicated to the music.
Nu-metal is a form of metal.
her ghost in the fog is the best Cradle of Filth song.
Iron Maiden are old ****.
Post-grunge is a perfectly valid genre.
KoRn get better with every album.
Incubus are numetal.
Static-X are industrial.
grunge exists.
this sig is not sarcastic.

Enjoy.

Either I'm taking the bait, or you don't recognize sarcasm when it slaps you 24 times in the face, Ph3n0m.

Seriously though, sigs that length should be illegal.

Ph3n0m
