Didn’t expect Snot to be here. Not one of my favorites but Get Some is a great album. My top 10 is Korn, Limp Bizkit, Deftones, Linkin Park, Sevendust, System Of A Down (some argue that they are not Nu Metal but whatever), P.O.D, Disturbed, Godsmack, and Slipknot. Nu Metal got me started with getting into rock and metal. Some might laugh at that but I don’t care, I like Nu Metal lol. Eventually I got into other subgenres of Metal.
Nu Metal got lots of people into Metal from because of bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Papa Roach e.t.c being played on the radio. Metal heads should be grateful to Nu metal for widely increasing the metal fanbase.
Nice list but I’d axe bizkit and insert papa roach
My top 10:
10. Korn
9. System Of A Down
8. Islander
7. Deftones
6. Taproot
5. Spineshank
4. Linkin Park
3. Stepa
2. Nothingface
1. Slipknot
Hell yeah someone else mentioned nothingface!
Stepa were sick
I’d challenge you to go listen to whatever you consider to be Slipknot’s best album then listen to Atrocity by Nothingface. Villains 🤘😠
How is Mudvayne not on this list?
Matthew Brucato cause they suck
No. they don't suck.
Cause the first album was more in the vein of prog and after that it was alt metal.
Was gunna say, they're too proggy during the early era to be nu metal -
They're pretty groove too me
+coverkillernation
I was actually expecting this comment section to be a storm of nasty comments about Nu Metal, but I am actually pleasantly suprised! Almost all are highly positive, for me I will be honest Nu metal is easily one of my favorite metal genres, and I am not ashamed of that. There are many bands of that sub-genre that really helped me get into metal as a whole and I thank them for that. Thank you for making such a great video on this CKN and thank you for paying your respects to Chester Bennington easily my favorite singer from this style of metal. It will be sad to see you retire from youtube CKN, but your videos that have gave such a positive impact to me and countless others in the metal community will not be forgotten, I give my salute and thanks to you! Stay Metal! \m/
Deftones is the only nu metal band I can still say I love. I still like some bands, but I am still very connected to them
Around the Fur is their best album in my opinion. But White Pony is a good album as well, it's just that it's a little bit different from that of the first two albums.
Around the Fur is one of my top 5 favorite albums of all time.
Despite my dislike of Gore, I can say the same. I remember I listened to their singles as a teenager and enjoyed them, but never really got into the band until Diamond Eyes came out. That album got me So hyped, that I decided to go through their entire discography, and I can honestly say that they are The number one Nu-Metal band of all time, imo.
I like Around the Fur a little more than White Pony too.
1) KoRn
2) Linkin Park
3) Slipknot
4) Deftones
5) SOAD
6) Limp Bizkit
7) Disturbed
8) POD
9) Mudvayne
10) Papa Roach
Honorable five: Ill Niño, Mushroomhead, Sevendust, Staind, and Static-X.
My opinion
10- Sevendust
9- System Of A Down
8- Noise Therapy
7- Drowning Pool
6- Deftones
5- Lifer
4- Mudvayne
3- KoRn
2- Slipknot
1- Linkin Park
Bonus bands that deserve a mention: No One; Primer 55; Disturbed; Limp Bizkit; Snot; Helen 55; Static-X; Kittie.
Glad Nonpoint got included. Surprised Sevendust was left off.
Sevendust isn't really Nu metal, they're more Alternative Metal. Even the band doesn't associate themselves with the Nu Metal label.
Sam Garcia the same could be said about deftones soad and slipknot, all which appeared on this list. they def started off as nu metal
Sevendust is WAY more nu-metal than staind. Staind is just alt-rock, even their heaviest songs aren't nu-metal. Don't know why staind is in this list
nu metal has alot of solid bands like ultraspank, american head charge, full devil jacket, snot etc
FatherSludge love ultraspank progress was so underrated
@@celestialbikiniatoll87 progress is an album that you can listen to all the way through without skipping a song
Ultraspank is the best 5 is a god tier song
Imma be honest this is the safest ‘Top Nu Metal Bands of All Time’ list. If I made this list I’d put
Coal Chamber, SOAD, Slipknot, Earshot, Flaw, Kittie, Dope, Deftones, Mudvayne, Taproot
Korn is my favorite band of all time... They are the band that actually made me want to pursue a Musical career... That's really something...
These are my Top Ten Favorite Nu Metal Bands, there are a couple that are not really remembered or known but yeah:
10. Rage Against The Machine
9. Lifer
8. Mudvayne
7. Disturbed
6. Deftones
5. System Of A Down
4. Slipknot
3. Korn
2. Linkin Park
1. Taproot
Love (most) Nu-Metal bands I've heard so far, one of my favorite genres
Haven't seen any love here for (hed) p.e. Their first 2 albums are packed with catchy riffs and legitimately good rapping (which is rare for nu-metal). Criminally overlooked/underrated stuff imo.
My favorite Nu Metal bands include Mudvayne, Disturbed, Static-X, Korn, Slipknot, Ill Nino, Deftones, Staind and Motograter. I like Linkin Park's first 2 albums Hybrid Theory and Meteora and yes, I even enjoyed their remix album Reanimation, but I just couldn't get behind the material that came after Meteora.
What about The Hunting Party album?
David Sullivan Static-X fuck yeah!
@@Supervideo1491 I've tried to get into it. There's at least one song I like from it and that's The Final Masquerade. Other than that, the rest of the album falls flat.
I wouldn't consider Static-X to be Nu Metal. But for the most part I can't disagree with your list. Only bands I probably add would be Drowning Pool, Ill Nino, Sevendust, Dope, and SOiL.
David Sullivan minutes to midnight is dope
Love how nu-metal is so hated by all the metal "gatekeepers" while ignoring the lasting impact it had on metal/rock music.
Deftones
System if a Down
Incubus
Linkin park
Korn
Slipknot
Staind
Limp bizkit
Disturbed
P.o.d
Not limp bizkit
@@nokturnalmortum4763 tbh i prefer limp bizkit over the pod and disturbed... just wanted to round out a "top ten"
Incubus? I wouldn't call them metal, let alone nu-metal. Even their first album was just alt-rock at best
Staind is awesome
i agree up until limp bizkit, also no way is incubus nu metal
Love your list all bands I listen to My top fav nu metal band would be nothingface but my top 10
1.nothingface
2.korn
3.linkin park
4.deftones
5.slipknot
6.limp biz kit
7.sevendust
8.mudvayne
9.spineshank
10.disturbed
Honorable mentions that I love but not my top 10 favs would be pulse Ultra,finger eleven,soad,primer 55,machinehead ,static x,drowning pool early albums
Coal Chamber and Hed(Pe) would be a couple more
My top 10 favorite nu-metal bands:
1. Slipknot
2. Korn
3. Chimaira*
4. System of a Down
5. Static-X
6. Deftones
7. Sevendust
8. Linkin Park (first 2 albums)
9. Mudvayne (1st album)
10. Disturbed (I like the Ten Thousand Fists record mainly...)
Note: I don’t know if Chimaira counts, but Pass Out of Existence is definitely nu-metal at least. I also like:
Sepultura - Roots
Lacuna Coil - Karmacode
Machine Head - The Burning Red
In Flames - Soundtrack to Your Escape
I wouldn’t call these 4 bands nu-metal per se, but they have at least one or two albums that could classify as nu-metal (as listed above)
I honestly look at Chimaira as being a metalcore/groove metal band.
soundtrack to your escape is def not nu-metal , in Flames is not nu-metal at all
Never cared all that much for nu metal. I do miss System of a Down and wonder if they are still around. Korn was OK too but System of a Down is the one nu metal band that made memories for me. I LOVED BYOB!
@@thegoodolddays9193 Ok thanks.
@@THE-INFINITE-VIBES Not Really youre right
1. Korn
2. Deftones
3. Mass hysteria
4. Slipknot
5. System of a down
6. Disturbed
7. Mudvayne
8. Coal Chamber
9. Soulfly
10. P.O.D
To me Nu-Metal is about combining elements of Urban Music with Metal, so my top 10 Nu-Metal bands are
10. Insolence
9. Rage Against The Machine (yes they're a Nu-Metal band)
8. Ill Nino (an underrated band)
7. Puya (an underrated band)
6. P.O.D
5. Reveille
4. Limp Bizkit
3. Nonpoint (an underrated band, and I'm glad they got a mention in this video)
2. Pleymo (an underrated band)
1. One Minute Silence (a criminally underrated band)
That's a very interesting list (i mean this in a positive sense)
@SaltandPepperFreak. Yeah imo Nu-Metal was about combining elements of Urban Music like Rap, Reggae and Latin Music with Metal.
I think people who don't like Nu-Metal would like bands like One Minute Silence who are similar to Rage Against The Machine, Puya who combine elements of Latin and Salsa music with Metal and Ill Nino who sound like a hybrid of KoRn and Roots Era Sepultura.
Pleymo are an underrated band from France, they sound like a hybrid of KoRn and Limp Bizkit. Reveille sounds like if Limp Bizkit kept their more aggressive sound off of Three Dollar Bill Y'all. Insolence are a great band that combined elements of Rap and Reggae with Metal, though they haven't been a Nu-Metal band in a while, they've gone in a more Hardcore direction in recent years. And Nonpoint is a great band as well, Nonpoint have almost like an R&B vibe to them.
Korn has always been my favorite band of all time... Deftones is also a loved band of mine.
Great work! You don't need fancy editing to make a good video. Its your discussion and content that really matters. Thanks for all the videos over the years. I learned a lot.
Ironically with all the angst in the music, the nu metal peak reminds me of happy times - my kids being born, good video games and the Kobe/Shaq Lakers winning championships. Saliva seems top 10 to me.
For me I would say
10. Limp Bizkit
9. Korn
8. Hed PE
7. Flaw
6. Lifer
5. System Of A Down
4. Rage Against The Machine
3. Linkin Park
2. Deftones
1. Nonpoint
One nu-metal band that absolutely deserved more was From Zero. They were one of the few nu-metal bands, along with Mudvayne, to have particularly great songwriting. They're definitely one of my favorites. Their album "My So-Called Life", while being more alt-rock instead of nu-metal, is still one of my favorite albums of all time
Smack was a killer fuckin song
I don't listen to much Staind often but Dysfunction is my go-to album for them.
Off the top of my head:
Korn
Deftones
Linkin Park
Disturbed
System Of A Down
Sepultura (1993 and onward)
Staind
Pantera
Soulfly
Rage Against The Machine
Machine Head
Limp Bizkit
Slipknot
Godsmack
Papa Roach
Static-X
Avenged Sevenfold
Sevendust
Five Finger Death Punch
Drowning Pool
Fear Factory
Slayer (circa 1998-2002)
Metallica (circa 2002-2004)
Incubus
Coal Chamber
Mudvayne
Adema
Evanescence
Alien Ant Farm
Fear Factory was really only nu-metal on Digimortal (as far as I'm concerned), pretty good album though.
@@ravenfuckantifa2000 fear factorys - obsolete is their first nu metal album
Pantera, Avenged Sevenfold & Metallica are not nu metal.
Did you Pantera in there? WTH dude
Ayeeee AAF!
IMO, the top 5 best (using the term loosely):
1. Deftones
2. Slipknot
3. Rage Against the Machine (if that counts)
4. Static-X
5. Powerman 5000
Top 5 Worst IMO:
5. Epidemic
4. Papa Roach
3. Darwin's Waiting Room
2. Adema
1. Drowning Pool
Drowning Pool's first album was excellent. Their singer dying literally killed it and made them generic.
@@jasonashley9853 I completely disagree. Dave Williams was an average vocalist at best; in no way does he come close to the level of talent of other nu-metal vocalists such as Corey Taylor and Chino Moreno. People just sing his praises because he died young. Also, Dave couldn't write lyrics beyond repeating the same line eight times in the chorus of each song. He had about as much creativity as Taylor Swift when it came to his lyrics. Yeah, Bodies may have stood out as a single, but the rest of the Sinner was just disposable filler. There is so much better nu-metal and other metal out there that can listen to; Drowning Pool's Sinner is not worth my time.
I've heard Papa Roach is great live though, can't confirm
Darwin's waiting room is pretty good, with songs like "live for the moment," "gone," and "back that ass up" are my favorites from them. Epidemic has like 1-2 decent songs total. Drowning pool f'ing rocks imao, but the other 2 are reasonable, lol.👍
Josh Alan drowning pool and slipknot are the best
I was just googling and searching UA-cam for some nu-metal related content and then CKN delivers! 🤗🙃
10. Dry Kill Logic 9. Linkin Park 8. Static-X 7. Deftones 6. Sevendust 5. Mudvayne 4. Korn 3. Disturbed 2. System of a Down 1. Slipknot
dry kill logic shouldve been alot bigger
Still love Nu-Metal, was nostalgic times for me, not saying they should be on the list but check out Reveille's fist 2 albums, they were under-rated
Rock or general culture as it were, you've contributed classy engaging videos every step of the way. Thanks for the expert opinions throughtout this 2010s decade.
Great list. Love the Cradle shirt. 🤘🏻
Interesting list! Nu metal isn't a favorite metal sub genre of mine, but there are some more bands I'd like to look more into!
By far my favorite nu metal bands are Slipknot, Linkin Park, and Sevendust!
My top 10?
1) Korn
2) Slipknot
3) Limp Bizkit
4) System Of A Down
5) Deftones
6) American Head Charge
7) Linkin Park
8) Soulfly (& roots by Sepultura)
9) Incubus
10) Drykill Logic
Honourable nu-metal mentions: Mudvayne, Drowning Pool, Spineshank, Static X, Snot, Primer 55 ..
(I love Staind but they're not nu-metal to be honest, post-grunge/alt-metal/alt-rock maybe)
Deftones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only band from that era I still listen to
I can't say Nu Metal was ever a massive thing for me. Linkin Park were easily my favourite band...I suppose you could call them the Nu Metal equivalent of Nirvana...the poster boys of the genre. But their sound and lyrics just really appealed to me. Disturbed were / are a close second - heavy yet also melodic. Loved some of their covers.
Slipknot are third - just the 1 album of theirs I bought (and its probably the one most fans regard as the weakest - All Hope Is Gone).
Then there are a bunch of bands who had a few standout songs for me - Korn, Deftones, P.O.D, Staind and Godsmack.
Always thought Limp Bizkit were a joke band - can't say I liked anything of theirs.
Top 10 in my Opinion not in any particular order
1: Mudvayne
2: Slipknot
3: Korn
4: Static-x
5: Dope
6: Deftones
7: Mushroomhead
8: Linkin Park
9: Coal Chamber
10: SOAD
And Top 5 worst my opinion
1:Crazy Town
2: POD
3: Papa Roach
4: Kid Rock
5: Limp Bizkit
Honorables: Snot, Soulfly, Kittie, Drowning Pool, and Body Count (which I don't know if they would be considered Nu-metal)
I'll always love this era. truly heavy music was in the mainstream for a short time. compared to how the landscape looks in the 2010s (look at what acts are winning the "best rock __" awards nowadays...). honestly I don't remember the last time a song with screaming vocals made the top40 for more than a week.
for me, nu-metal is the genre that gets the most undeserved hate from within the metal community. ironically enough, nu-metal is treated by metal elitists the same way metal in general is treated by mainstream music fans. bands like korn, deftones, staind, slipknot, P.O.D., SOAD, and yes, even limp bizkit will always hold a special place in my heart
I’m very very glad you included Snot on the list
Korn will always be my favorite band! They are the very architects of the genre, and defined that sinister, hip hop inspired sound. Jonathan's lyrical, and vocal style is very distinct, and aggressive, the electric guitars have a very unique, cerebral sound to them, and Fieldy's base is ultra heavy, and is very influenced by Les Claypool from Primus. The only real other band I could compare that electric guitar tone with is, Tom Morello's sound from Rage Against The Machine. But even then his technique is totally different, and fits his respective band. Overall, whenever I think of Nu-Metal, I think Korn!
Yes sir!!!
Korn sucks almost as bad as Limp Bizkit
@@markpalavosvrahotes5575 hey thanks for your input... why are you watching this guy reacting to KoRn and trolling the comments?
Korn sounds nothing like limp bizkit at all. Other than the downtuned guitar, they have almost no musical similarities
@@ethann9433 I agree.
Deftones
Mudvayne
Slipknot
System of a down
Coal chamber
Korn
Static x
Sevendust
Drowning pool (1st album)
Spineshank
Worst:
Limp biskit (after 2nd album)
Kid rock
Crazy town
Saliva
10 - Mudvayne
9 - Sevendust
8 - Drowning Pool
7 - Disturbed
6 - Limp Bizkit
5 - Linkin Park
4 - Rage Against The Machine
3 - System of a Down
2 - Slipknot
1 - Korn
Thank you for mentioning Snot! They were at the first big concert I ever went to and it was phenomenal! I was so young yet so impressionable at the time that they blew me away. "MY BALLS YOUR CHIN!"
Adding on Limp Bizkit, as a fan of 90s, and continuing today, industrial metal, the shit they did on Starfish was a slap in the face to industrial fans and even their guitarist, Wes, was against much of the slander Fred made on that album since he liked NIN (whom Fred dissed) and the genre of industrial as a whole was a huge influence to NuMetal. Linkin Park did counter this, much like Slipknot, and they relied heavily on electronics and industrial sounds like many of the early 90s metal wave (White Zombie, Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad, etc) that helped pave the way into NuMetal.
Also as a NuMetal fan to this day, fuck Disturbed, people can like them but to me they are one of the bands that should of died out on the scene especially when bands like Dope (who are still pumping out amazing albums), Nonpoint (whom you mentioned), Ill Nino, Mudvayne, Nothingface, and so on, exist and have released much better (in my opinion) material.
Do not forget to check the current wave of NuMetal that has risen the past few years like DED, My Ticket Home, Islander, Dangerkids, Fire From the Gods, and Sylar
Nothingface was basically the first Slipknot and Cold was also very interesting.
I actually like, the chocolate starfishand the hot dog flavored water haha
10. P.O.D
9. Sepultura (late)
8. Cocotte Minute
7. Linkin Park (early)
6. Deftones
5. Limp Bizkit
4. System Of A Down
3. Slipknot
2. Soulfly
1. KoRn
Stuck Mojo, Professional Murder Music, RA, Reveille, Sikth, Soil, Soulfly, Taproot, 36 Crazyfists, Videodrone, Kittie, Adema, Flaw, Bobaflex, Cold, Damageplan, Down The Sun, DROID, Drowning Pool, Dry Kill Logic, ēndo, Fear Factory, 40 Below Summer, From Zero, God Forbid, Godhead, Gizmachi, (hed)pe, ill niño, Incubus.... just a few more lol
I am a huge fan of Stand, I always find their music and especially Aaron's voice packed with emotions. I'm also a massive fan of Coal Chamber.
Disturbed being on this list is confusing to me. I hear them described as a nu metal band quite often, but out of all of the Disturbed material I've listened to (admittedly not a lot) I couldn't find any hip hop elements. Could someone explain?
Say what you want, but Chocolate Starfish has some of the best Nu-metal songs ever when it comes to composition, memorable riffs/hooks, and Jump-The-Fuck-Up grooves - My Generation, My Way, Livin it Up, Take A Look Around, Itll Be Ok, Boiler. and even Hold On is a pretty good chill-out point on the track listing.
Also, no one ever mentions The Unquestionable Truth pt. 1, which has one of the best LB songs ever - The Truth, with the rest of the EP also being quite decent.
Hey CKN, it appears that the link to your discord seems to be appearing as invalid for me.
Great video mate but how about Rage against the machine as the pioneers of rap metal? And Faith no more they invented new metal in my opinion and Machine head with the spit fire lyrics on burn my eyes and the hip hop video of Davidian. I think these three bands were really influential to nu metal and a higher quality.

Deftones, Slipknot, Korn, Taproot, 36 Crazyfists, Sevendust, Linkin Park, Chevelle, Love And Death, and Pulse Ultra
Get some is a solid album. Still listen to it. Had more of a punk sound to me. Definitely got lumped into that genre. Same with Nothingface another what could have been band.
Nothingface
American Head Charge
The Deadlights
Spineshank
Unloco
Dry Kill Logic
Downthesun
Simon Says
The Blank Theory
Lollipop Lust Kill

I'm not sure about the genre of Dope, but
"Who the fuck listen to Dope?"
I always found Ultraspank incredibly & criminally under-rated. They only did two albums but both are equally great dark albums, which I still play to this day. They never really hit it big, they don't even have film clips despite being signed on Epic records. They deserve much better recognition...
Spineshank too deserved better credit, methinks. The first album Strictly Diesel however was an average slab of typical nu-metal complete with the horrible cover 'When My Guitar Gently Weeps' (I wouldn't really recommend the album) but the next album The Height Of Callousness was a big improvement, it had more catchier and harder hitting songs. Self Destructive Pattern was another solid release where they were even nominated for a Grammy for the song Smothered but then the frontman quit and did Silent Civilian. Musical differences, I believe...
And Staind? I never thought they were nu-metal, I always thought they were just trying to fill Alice In Chains shoes, especially the song 'It's Been Awhile'
My top 5 is korn. ratm. limp bizkit. wes borland awesome guitar. soad. Mudvayne.
Best 5 for myself:
Korn
Slipknot
Sepultura (roots era)
Skindred
Coal chamber
Oliver Ganner god roots was awful. Arise and Chaos AD are thrash masterpieces right up there with master of puppets and reign in blood.
I think Drowning Pool should be on the list.
@TheVirusSoftware Eh, kind of but not really. I'll try to explain (TL;DR at bottom). You had the Dave Williams era, the original singer. The biggest hit off their debut album with him was defiantly "Bodies", but other singles like "Sinner", "Tearing Away" also had a moderate amount of success in the Very early 2000's. Tearing Away was also the intro/theme song of "WWF: Wrestlemania X8". They also recorded a song for wrestler "Triple-H" called "The Game" which saw limited use in the WWF/E. After Dave's death, Jason Jones, stepped in and became front man, a new album "Desensitized" was released. The biggest hit being "Step Up" Which even rivals "Bodies" in terms of it popularity, and was featured in the movie/soundtrack to "The Punisher" (2004), Jason left soon after. Once Jason left, "SOiL" front man Ryan McCombs came on board, and they released, an album in 2007, which produced a few singles most notable though "37 Stitches". They also worked with WWE again and in 2004ish and recorded the song "Rise Up" which was the WWE SmackDown! theme from mid 2004-mid 2008. They released another album in 2010 with Ryan, which spawned a few more singles though my favorite being "Turn So Cold". 2011 Ryan left and Jasen Moreno, stepped in. A new album in 2013 a few more singles, though at this point they had far peaked in popularity and had began severely waning in the years, and released their latest album in 2016.
TL;DR:
They were mostly known for the songs "Bodies" with front man Dave Williams, but produced many singles in their career, and worked with many different front men, their arguably biggest/second biggest being "Step Up" with front man Jason Jones, the height of their popularity in the mid 2000's. Former "SOiL" front man Ryan came on borad in 2004 shortly after Jason left, and the produces a few albums and multiple singles, before leaving. They severely waned in popularity towards the end of the 2000's/beginning of the 2010's. They had their work showcased in large media at the time most notable WWF/E and The Punisher movie. But with as many huge Nu-Metal bands that spawned around the late 90's/early 00's Drowning Pool while they did have a good amount of success, unfortunately is one of the band that just kind of got "lost in the noise". If you're into Nu-Metal I'd highly recommend looking into their discography more.
Coal Chamber were always my favorite.
I feel Fear Factory deserve a mention. Demauncfacture and Obsolete were as nu metal as it came
