Death Metal, Thrash Metal... also can you give an example of each?
Grunge, but I will say that nu-metal is extremely overhated. ''nu'' may mean new, but it's a note of the fusion of hip hop in it. Bands such as the Deftones are actually really good, so are System Of A Down (so kill me) and early day Korn. There is alot of creativity to be found in nu metal, but it's called an ugly and vulgar genre due to bands such as Limp Bizkit (whose music is ugly and vulgar) And nu metal does not replace standard/ traditional metal at all. It's a subgenre that's all, sure in the 90s nu metal was getting alot of attention, and perhaps the wrong or inaccurate bands, but a typical nu-metal hater would only see Korn's latest couple of albums, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit and cast it off as a bad genre, when really, a genre can't be bad (except an argument could be made for crunckcore), but the bands in it.
Grunge, I do not enjoy nu metal.
Nu Metal is NOT Metal. Korn are NOT Metal, Linkin Park are NOT Metal, Limp Bizkit are NOT Metal! What is wrong with you, have you recently suffered a blow to the head or lost part of your hearing?
Nu-Metal as in Not-Metal?, even bad Grunge is better than that crap. It's like when you were a kid and they put 'New' on the front of your favourite Saturday Morning cartoon show, which meant they had changed the voices, the theme music and added pointless annoying new characters and it just wasn't funny anymore. That's how I feel about Nu-Metal.
nu metal is the worst genre of rock ever, so i will say grunge.
