      @@atvena But also took influence from other styles before. Like Korn on "Blind", one can hear the influences from Grunge in early Nu-Metal. Groove Metal, Alternative-Metal, Grunge, Rap-Metal, Funk-Metal, even Industrial at times. Then you had bands like Soulfly and Ill Nino adding tribal influences and more.

    To me the "going mainstream" tracks should have been
    Korn - Freak on a leash
    Limp Bizkit - Nookie
    Those 2 were all over the MTVs of the world and high schools radios, it was insane.

      I mean "going mainstream" is pretty crazy assumption because they made a song that made them popular, I highly doubt they were sitting around and were like "hey lets make this song more pop so we get famous" neither of those songs deviated much from their "sound" that they've always had or had during that era. They wrote a song some people liked it, because some people did it got more air time. Both bands also wrote a whole lot of music that no one has ever heard but the ones who bought the albums.

    What about prong, lost and found 1990. And the rap-metal thing goes back to 1984 with I'm the man by anthrax, and that afrikka bambaata john lydon collab, not to mention the run dmc aerosmith thing a year or 2 later.
    Also the judgement night soundtrack of rock-alt-metal/rap collabs which iirc was 1993, might have been 94.
    Also faith no more's we care a lot goes back to 1986, before mike patton.
    And of course like others have mentioned, mr bungle, and the riffs and lack of solos of helmet, who also had a collab with house of pain on the judgement night soundtrack
    And early run dmc had some serious guitar riffage on a few tunes.

    Don't really hear a lot of Nu-Metal in bands after 2004 tbh. Only bands that truly kept to it after that point was basically Slipknot, Mudvayne etc. Mostly a genre known for it's weird image (Slipknot and their jump suites, masks etc), often rap vocals and scooped mid tone. One could say that Pantera had an influence on it from their aggressive style and scooped tone (a part from this it's another example of a band I wouldn't classify as "Nu-Metal"), Deftones & KoRn by their heavy downtuned riffs and Anthrax & Public Enemy for fusing rap and metal.
    Only new band I came across in YEARS that actually really sounded Nu-Metal is Sleep Theory. I personally wouldn't classify Suicide Silence as Nu-Metal although there is obviously some influence there

    Nu Metal peaked in 1999/2000. Everything after that was just the rapid decline. I think Linkin Park and Slipknot came out of it with the most integrity. Limp Bizkit was never a sustainable band and Korn became a parody of themselves before having an identity crisis before just going full mediocre.
