    I agree with pretty much all of this except for Meteora, which I’d put in S or A tier. Although I think Hybrid Theory has better individual tracks, I think Meteora is more consistent overall. The singles still go hard all these years later, and there are some incredible deep cuts as well (Lying From You and Figure 0.9 are both in my top 5 LP songs). I think it’s aged a lot better than other nü metal, and it’s the LP album that I keep coming back to. For me personally, I’d put it up with the ones in S tier.
    Great video tho

      I like Meterora but the only track on it I really love is Faint.
      Overall though I just don't hold Linkin Park too highly anyway, I like all of their albums but don't love any of them.
      Favourite album by them Miight be Minutes to Midnight? I like how it's a transitionary album with a good mix of their older sound and newer sound.

      Meteora have Numb and Breaking The Habit, two shitly pop rock songs, and Numb is a rip off of Crawling and Pushing Me Away.
      So, i give a C, but Lying From You and Nobody Listening are pretty good.

    The Nu Metal era was what got me into music and heavier stuff in general. There's a few bands here that being in Australia I've never even heard of. Australia was half a decade behind with Nu Metal, but there's a couple really good Nu Metal tinged albums here. Karnivool - Themata (and their EP) has a heavy Nu Metal influence. Another is The Butterfly Effect - Begins Here (and again their EP). Both excellent albums and both bands got better and both dropped most of the Nu Metal influence.
    There were some bands that actually we're around as Nu Metal hit but they never got big. Nevertheless they had some good albums too. Superheist - The Prize Recruit (8 Miles High EP is better), Testeagles - Non Comprehendous, Sunk Loto - Big Picture Lies (and EP Society Anxiety).

I also wouldn't say it's overrated ; it scored well with critics but I think many fans wanted the sickness pt. 2 and they didn't get it thank God. It can be tough for non-disturbed fans to distinguish between what is their good and bad material so I cant fault you.

    The Impossibility of Reason by Chimaira to me is really S tier. When that album came out I was blown away. The tracks on that album are at least good, but some are great. Great riffing, a lot of diversity, a great instrumental at the end, nice combination of clean and growl vocal, and very heavy. I actually don't really consider it a nu-metal album. I kinda fully agree on your S tier, but Significant Other was good but I consider it A tier. And I haven't really listened to the Sevendust album. I think they weren't that much of a thing in Europe so it didnt caught my attention. And Around the Fur... Maybe my favourite Deftones album. I couldn't get that one out of my sony disk man.

    I listened The Height of Callousness today and personally, I really enjoyed it that now I love nu metal COMBINED with Industrial, Breakbeat, Big Beat or Drum'N'Bass. Same vein with Pitchshifter, Static-X, Orgy (about their second album, it's the same good album, just like Candyass) and even underrated ones like Professional Murder Music (god, such a goofy title for that band) and Apartment 26. Also, you missed about Nothingface, the last two albums Violence and Skeletons were actually pretty good.
    P.S. About video games, have you ever played Twisted Metal? The third and fourth one have great soundtracks from favorite bands, for example White Zombie (before he went into solo band as Rob Zombie).

Plus the 40 below summer mention was cool. Glad to see someone mention them. Nothingface violence is another underrated nu metal gem i still love. Their were a lot of good sophomore nu metal albums that actually were good ones.

    I agree with a decent amount of your opinions, Ive grown out of new metal a long time ago but bands liek System and Deftones I still respect. I gotta say Im a bit shocked at your feeling toward Vapor transmission. I too was more of a Candyass fan and after the original line up broke and they reformed with horrible dubstep music I quickly lost interest. But When I go back and listen to them (rarely now days)I think Vapor is their prime album and has aged the best. The Lyrical content on Candyass might be better but the other all sound on Vapor I feel like is their peak. And even the the lyrics can be silly at times the attitude and energy I feel make up for it. Punk Statik Paranoia has even grown on my as a guilty pleasure album, but I wont argue for that album. I think ORGY was an under rated band with so much potential but they just made some bad decisions unfortunately..

    To make comment on Iowa I just want to say how fucking dark and brutal that entire album is next to 'Slipknot'. Their pissed off I will break your face style is what shaped them into who they are today. It's a damn shame they'll never go back to that dark aggressive style again

    I agree with you on Around the Fur. As a fellow Deftones fan, I will say that this is my favorite album by the band. Also agree on Iowa being on S tier and with Drowning Pool being at F tier. Drowning Pool never had a good album; I've always seen everything they've done as generic butt metal. Yes I would like to see a video on Nu-Metal third albums.

  • @cowmark67
    @cowmark67 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I agree with the placement of every album on this list that I have heard except for two: Meteora and Believe. For Meteora I would put it at S tier. I think it takes the formula for Hybrid Theory and does it better. As for Believe by Disturbed I don't think it's an S tier album but I would probably put it at at least B if not A tier. Disturbed, though I have fallen off from listening to them recently, are one of my favorite bands and it's between Ten Thousand Fists and Believe for my favorite album from them.

    Very good list brother. I specially enjoyed the S through B tier. I will have to check out that 40 Below Summer as I do not remember them. I would definitely put Believe, Dysfunction & Every Six Seconds up higher (Ive always been a sucker for Saliva lol). Oh and no P.O.D. Satellite? Technically it's their fourth album as they had 2 indies before Fundamental Elements of Southtown but I would arguably say it's one of biggest Nu Metal albums of all time. Thanks for list brother and stay metal 🤘

      Good call on P.O.D. Satellite and Youth of the Nation were hugely popular songs. I also wonder whether Fear Factory couldn't be on these lists. They are so close to Nu Metal, especially Obsolete, that I don't think many would protest. And Marylin Manson too.

    If Dave Williams hadn’t died so soon after the release of that first Drowning Pool album, they almost certainly would’ve put out a better second album. They were headed in a good direction after the debut. Also, Hed (PE) is more grounded in hip-hop than a lot of these bands. I think docking them for “misogyny” is a little misguided when you consider that pretty much ALL hip-hop of that era would have to be ranked C tier or lower using that criteria.
