Caerau: Did you hear the stuff that Dillinger Escape Plan did with Mike Patton? Noisy bastards.

I'm not too into the whole genre thing, but I thought nu metal tended to involve some goon on a set of decks or a sample machine or something, rather than the more traditional line up. I'm gonna invite ridicule by saying that slipknot aren't always bad. They'd probably get a lot more respect if it wasn't for the legions of small children in their hoody/dress combos.
I'm gonna say that I thought Mudvayne were awesome too, and thei bass player is pretty sick.
Linkin Park plainly suck the balls though. I was unfortunately reminded of something MUCH worse the other day though. Anyone remember Crazy Town? I accidently saw one of their videos the other day. It made me envy the deaf. And the blind.
One thing that always used to piss me off were kids saying "Hip hop is rubbish" "Yeah, more like cRAP" "haha" etc, then singing the praises of Limp dickshit or something. Rubbish.
Anyone got an opinion of Bleeding Through? Pretty fucking brutal. and the singer used to play guitar in Throwdown apparently.
And everyone should check out "Bring you to your knees: a tribute to Guns n Roses" because it is awesome.
And while you're at it, "Progression through unlearning" and "end transmission" by Snapcase, for a couple of albums that are both lovely, but in pretty different ways. I'd be tempted to ignore the song "Coagulate" as an example of what's good about that album, or tha band in general though.
