Many of you dislike nu-metal (mainly fans of post-rock, art rock, "experimental" genres and emo), but it has had fine moments. I'm not into what's coming out of it now, but I did discover many bands and albums during its heyday and I still go back to those albums from time to time. I preferred bands that relied heavily on melodic structures (Deftones are the kings of that).
All of the following albums are great albums linked to nu-metal when it was thriving. Yes, an RATM album is on the list, yes a Tool album is on the list. Both of those artists were linked to nu-metal back then (except by diehards) in their own way. I know -- Blasphemy.
