Follow the Leader will forever be my favorite KoRn album and one of the best albums of all time. I rode my bike up to target to pick it up the day it released that August in ‘98. Garza, I swear we’d be homies if we met lol
Korn's first two albums are my personal favorites in nu-metal. Some other favorites are Adam Head's "The End", Blood Youth's "Starve", Seo Taiji's "Seo Taiji V", Limp Bizkit's "Three Dolla Bill, Y'all", Slipknot's self titled, and Snot's "Get Some".
I was in 9th grade when I first saw the "spit it out" video,back in 2000... I been a fan for 23 years now, iowa and ST stiill clap hard AF till this day 🔥🤟🏽
So many great albums on that Nu list... that genre is eternal! I wish they've also added Nothingface and Ill Nino on the list... Ill Nino first record is a banger from start to finish :)
1. Slipknot -ST(can share with iowa, but I consider iowa more death metal, than nu metal) 2. Linkin park- hybrid theory 3. Limp bizkit-significant other 4- Korn- follow the leader 5- mudvayne- LD50
@10:39 I agree! First time I heard Tool I was young and impressionable and all of the instruments just blended together so well I couldn’t pick them apart and it wasn’t until I was older that I could hear the individual instruments
One of my favorite Nu-Metal albums ever that never got it's flowers is CrazyTown - Darkhorse (2003) The thing that is the coolest about it is that the band wasn't sour at the critical reception of the record because they made the album they wanted to & didn't care what the label/public wanted,they accomplished their goal of the band (travel the world & sell a ton of records) over 5 Million albums worldwide,& made some good money. 🤘🏻
This episode is great. This is the one that will make me a fan for sure. Albums 50-40 were all amazing. That spineshank album bangs. That first staind album is amazing. 27. Static x amazing....
I saw KORN at the electric factory in philly for the first album. Saw Limp bizkit open up for Deftones at the Troc philly before I ever heard of them too. Tool used to open for these bands back then too. Seen them a couple times as a opening act. Saw Slipknot on the side stage at Ozzfest 98 or 99 shit was crazy seeing them. Sevendust tored heavy back then as well. Went to a Coal chamber show on Halloween at the troc in philly.
For me it was 3 dollar Bill yall. I wish the production sounded better. It was almost too raw. But the songs were so much better than significant other
Pretty sure Korn’s Blind was co-written by one or two of the guys from orgy. And I believe it was a partial song that came from Jonathan‘s first band sex art with a couple of the guys from orgy. And now I believe one of the guys from orgy is actually in the band Adema, which used to be fronted by Jonathan Davis his half brother. It’s a weird incestual group.
Korn's first album is not only the creator of the style but also thé best new metal album of all time. I bought it in 1994, it was crazy...i'm not a big fan of new metal but this one is of of the best in metal History for sure.
Ryan Shuck was in Korn before Brian but as Sexart. Then you googled it ha ha. He wrote the Blind riff. Amir did Coal Chamber...I am Amir of the desert.
What's up brotha I have 2 tickets for your upcoming Cleveland date in April I'm beyond ready it's only gonna be my 2nd time seeing you guys let's goooo!
Similar #1 slipknot-ST(sometimes iowa, depending on the mood) #2 LP- hybrid theory #3 LB- significant other #4 Korn- follow the leader #5 mudvayne- LD50
I like to think of all the bands we never got to hear due to not having cheap interfaces/equipment to record at home like we do these days imagine the bands we definitely missed out on cuz they just couldn't get their music out of a local spot or even recorded in General i bet some were probably better than Limp Bizkit, Korn, Linkin park, etc and all of them. I guarantee there was a hella good nu metal band that was pure perfection just never made it big and I wish those bands would have had similar resources we do now in the music world.
Am I the only one that hated vol 3? It was the first album I ever bought after loving the first 2 Slipknot releases and I remember listening to it on the drive home with my dad being so confused and disappointed like wtf is this shit? 20 years later and I still feel the same way. Could never get into anything after Iowa.
@@etooMee I believe the vocalist and guitarist got married and started a family. Other than that I'm not sure, none of them ever really played in any other bands as far as I'm aware.
I thought there was a lot of junk in this genre, but a few standouts for me were Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory, this ultra polished/super tight electronic rock that's like a treat. KoRn's Issues and Untouchables were superior song-writing and arrangements, just elite level contemporary composition. Then maybe Static X's first two for that robotic aesthetic and then Slipknot's first two for the furious riffs.
I dont knkw if someone already mentioned it but, in regards to the guys from Orgy being connected to some nu metal records, if you listen to the hidden track on Coal Chambers first album youll hear somebody playing around with a cover of a Bauhaus song with what sounds Elijah Blue Allman on vocals. Jay Gordon played bass in Elijahs band Deadsy before singing in Orgy.
Idk why but i have always thought slipknot was a little overrated. No hate. I definitely like a lot of their songs, but i never latched onto them like I did Korn or Deftones. I also think Chevelle's 'Wonder Whats Next' should be somewhere in the top 50.
My top 5, nu metal albums: #1 slipknot-ST(sometimes iowa, depending on the mood) #2 LP- hybrid theory #3 LB- significant other #4 Korn- follow the leader #5 mudvayne- LD50
I know this video has been out for a minute but I got on just to say that Suicide Silence Self-Titled album is my favorite Suicide Silence album.🤘C’mon keyboard warriors, blow me up now WAAAN. People hate on that album only because it’s not their normal sound that those people became fanboys of. I think it’s the best they ever sounded. Groove, midtempo riffage, clean tones, clean vocals, ambience, nutty. It’s damn near perfect and I only hope Garza and crew will give us a part II nu-metal inspired album again. 🤘💀🤘🎸
Issues should be waaay higher and Life Is Peachy is at LEAST in the top 50. Aside from that the Serenity of Suffering and The Nothing are in the top 50 now as well. Diamond Eyes from Deftones should be up and Steal This Album from SOAD should be in the list. I know you have to diversify the list but top 50 is top 50
1.) Slipknot- self-titled 2.) Linkin Park-Meteora 3.) Korn-self-titled These bands changed my life. I wouldn’t be here without them. I listened to them non stop every day in HS. Had the pleasure of meeting both Corey T. and Chester B. Both amazing, humble guys. (RIP Chester!) Love this podcast and excited to see Suicide Silence for the first time in April! 🤘🏼🖤
Once I outgrew nu metal, I couldn't get back into it. But you're gonna have those couple bands that also outgrew the genre that still stand out today and for me, that's sevendust, fear factory, and deftones. Who the A listers ended up being in nu metal were easily the worst of the genre as far as mainstream success. 7D and FF shoulda been the trailblazers. Because I did have a short phase with it in my teens, I do know what most of these albums are. Also cuz of mtv X lol Remember skrape and NO ONE? 🤣
what a bullshit list, no 3rd strike, no 40 below summer, no 36 crazyfists, no american head charge, no mind shelter, no five pointe o, no gizmachi, no fear factory, but there's crazy town xD
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is way too good to be considered nu metal. It's more in the 311 tier. It's a shame it was the only record like that in incubus's career. They let the dollar signs water them down so early in their career.
@@simonjamesconstable Shawn Crahan is Clown incase u dont know who that is , oh Im sorry Executive Producer sorry for not being technical I meant whatever kind of producer I own all their records and I just just got done double checking, nazi prick get off your computer and get laid for a change lmao
My wife is in Kittie, I believe we were in the same hotel as you in Mexico City a few months back
Sic! That show was rough haha. Would love to have them on the podcast. -GaЯza
3 albums I feel are missing
Nothingface: Violence
40 below summer: The morning after
Chimera: Passout of existence
100%
I’d personally go with Invitation To The Dance, instead.
hed p.e. broke is so underrated
So true...
I think Hed pe's singer is such a universal vocalist - he can sing and scream just basically everything possible :D
American head charge should be in that list for sure
The art of war is Def top 10 nu metal album
Follow the Leader will forever be my favorite KoRn album and one of the best albums of all time. I rode my bike up to target to pick it up the day it released that August in ‘98. Garza, I swear we’d be homies if we met lol
Thanks for putting the list on the screen 👍🏻
I coulda used Snot - Get Some. All other albums I would have picked were on there.
Korn's first two albums are my personal favorites in nu-metal. Some other favorites are Adam Head's "The End", Blood Youth's "Starve", Seo Taiji's "Seo Taiji V", Limp Bizkit's "Three Dolla Bill, Y'all", Slipknot's self titled, and Snot's "Get Some".
True nu-metal connoisseur!
Slipknot self titled album was revolutionary, that did it for me when I was in 6th grade. Till this day I believe it's the best nu metal album ever.
Literally the exact same for me lol, it was the summer after 5th and before 6th.
I was in 9th grade when I first saw the "spit it out" video,back in 2000...
I been a fan for 23 years now, iowa and ST stiill clap hard AF till this day 🔥🤟🏽
I can't believe Nothingface was not on that list. So good. Also Garza.....you gotta spend some time with Adrenaline. Such a great album. Has a vibe.
I agree nothingface should definitely be on the list
@@chriszuccaro5823 SS used to cover Engine No. 9 live, so it's weird he acted like he never heard the album
@@TheManWithNoName686 Maybe he just needs a refresher of the record, or at least I hope. Ha ha ha
It’s actually insane to me how chimaira’s pass out of existence never shows up anywhere, such an underrated gem
I just happened to pop that CD in yesterday while driving. It's killer!
So many great albums on that Nu list... that genre is eternal!
I wish they've also added Nothingface and Ill Nino on the list... Ill Nino first record is a banger from start to finish :)
Awesome podcast! Glad sevendust made the list ! Taproot is rare too.
Gift was a great album but I thought their follow up was really weak
I think the only Sevendust record that sounded numetal was Home
Missing ILL Nino - Revolution should be in the top 30!! 🔥
I’ll nino kinda sucked lol
YES! ILL NINO RULES
YES.
LD 50 gets my vote.
Another killer album
All the way through. Later tracks on the album are just as good as the first 5.
Under rated album🤟🏽
brr brr dengggggggg
5: machinehead- burning red

Chocolate Starfish and the chocolate flavoured water?
Burning red is really a gem
1. Slipknot -ST(can share with iowa, but I consider iowa more death metal, than nu metal)

Cold - 13 Ways
Project 86 - Self-Titled
Nothingface - Violence
downset. - Self-Titled

Nonpoint - statement. That album is amazing

I’m surprised Mushroomhead XIII wasn’t mentioned!

Some Reveille - Laced , Snot- get some, and Nothingface's Violence,Pacifier IMO should have been included.
That snot album is SO fucking good. What a absolute shame we only got that 1 CD
Haven’t heard anyone mention Reveille in decades. So underrated for their time
Ryan Shuck was in Korn before Brian but as Sexart. Then you googled it ha ha. He wrote the Blind riff. Amir did Coal Chamber...I am Amir of the desert.

Korns self titled album all the way 🤘
I am actually really impressed with how good that list is. It reminded me of so many amazing records I need to go listen to again!
The first libe band that blew my mind was Lamb of God, during the new American gospel tour with mushroomhead. Mind blown
Super underrated nu-metal album is Untitled by Five Pointe O. I absolutely love that album and still listen to it to this day.
Yesss! I wonder what these folks are doing nowadays...
@@etooMee I believe the vocalist and guitarist got married and started a family. Other than that I'm not sure, none of them ever really played in any other bands as far as I'm aware.

First podcast I'm checking out, enjoyable stuff.
The Union Underground should be on here somewhere. Maybe not top 10 but somewhere.
With Orgy honestly I think Vapor Transmission was far better than Candyass 😂 such a great album
American Head Charge - The War of Art
Underrated band, Ultraspank. Great music, but they never caught on with the scene as others did.
I dont knkw if someone already mentioned it but, in regards to the guys from Orgy being connected to some nu metal records, if you listen to the hidden track on Coal Chambers first album youll hear somebody playing around with a cover of a Bauhaus song with what sounds Elijah Blue Allman on vocals.

#4 Korn- follow the leader
#5 mudvayne- LD50
Mudvayne LD 50 top 3 for me with hybrid theory and korn selftitled, wiht Iowa right behind love all.
where the fuck is Amercian Head Charge!!! The War of Art was a master piece
Amir Derakh frim Orgy was the main brain behind so many productions
Skipped over quite a few noteworthy ones. Mushroomhead being one
Same with Korn..
40 Below Summer - Invitation to the Dance should be on this list
I know this video has been out for a minute but I got on just to say that Suicide Silence Self-Titled album is my favorite Suicide Silence album.🤘C’mon keyboard warriors, blow me up now WAAAN.

Who are the hosts in this episode?
Crossbreed
Zack is the man!!!!
Ld50 would be my pick for num 1. Slipknot Self titled would take 2
i think Hed Pe's hardest track is madhouse off their Insomnia record
Spineshank
A nu-metal list with no Nothingface is a nu-metal list made by an Algorithm.
Love the podcast… can’t stand the amount of times you all say “like” or “it’s like”

deftones were never nu metal and fear factory's only nu metal song is a ripoff of a korn song
@@ELIJAHNUBOYD ok grandpa 😊now back to the nursing home it's nap time!
Sevendusts best album is Home not the two on this list. Life is Peachy is better than Untouchables or Follow the Leader.
To be fair it’s a list published by Loudwire. Their content should be taken with a grain of salt.
no Around the fur, how?
Look again.
From zero?
Human Waste Project, Korn, Deftones, Linea 77, Snot, Coal Chamber, Taproot, Project 86, Skinlab, Static X, Nothingface.
Follow The Leader the best in my opinion
Listen to Bionic Jive, best rap metal hybrid ever.
Pleymo - medicine cake
Mudvayne LD 50... best ever then Slipknot self titled... boom
needs more bizkit
Sevendust _Home_
Get Steve vai on please brother
When tf are they gonna talk about my generations nu metal the last half?
