Nu-Metal deserves respect as an organic phenomenon free from big corporate top down music production that has plagued the music industry, especially since the 1990s.

Probably not even bait, as younger kids seem to be fooled by nostalgia in their appraisal of nu metal.
As a genre, the only good releases are:
Korn: albums 0, 1, 2 and 4. Follow the Leader has a shitton of filler.
Slipknot: albums 1 and 2. Subliminal Verses is alt metal.
Mudvayne: album 1.
Linkin Park: album 1. Hot take: Meteora was just a more commercial rehash of their first album, and the rest of their career has consisted of them either rehashing their early sound (new album), or just selling out shamelessly.
Deftones: albums 1 and 2. Already showed signs of transitioning into alt metal since Around the Fur, which is probably the best nu metal album of all time.
Dir en grey: six Ugly EP and Vulgar LP; their only nu metal releases.
Other bands commonly mentioned as nu metal like SOAD and Faith No More are alt metal, and the rest of the genre (except some obscure bands here and there) is almost entirely shit.

Just one more fight about your leadership
And I will straight up leave your shit
'Cause I've had enough of this
And now I'm pissed, yeah
This time I'ma let it all come out
This time I'ma stand up and shout
I'ma do things my way, it's my way
My way or the highway
This time I'ma let it all come out
This time I'ma stand up and shout
I'ma do things my way, it's my way
My way or the highway

you clearly haven't explored the genre fully if all you're posting are the popular albums everyone knows about.

Is this fr? Nu metal was so fucking corporate and corny it's not even funny, this just makes no sense. This album itself is a really good example of said corporate top down music production, what the fuck are you on? What the fuck happened to mu?

The white niggs that listened to numetal back in the late 90's/early 00's are now all middle aged & seeking validation. It's always been "Fat Kid Mean-Muggin' Everybody" music.

The hilarious thing is, most chumps who got into numetal, COMPLETELY forwent the ENTIRE organic sound of the 90s, before that. They were either wiggers who listened exclusively to rap music, or were into standard metal up until that point. They had no clue how the 90's shaped the overall sound, which is to say they had no idea how numetal was basically the record labels finally figuring out how to polish, distill and package "edgy music" for edgy faggots. Another branch of this was 00's "emo music," which was the fucking rinkydink themepark version of pop punk with screamier vocals. Knowing this it's no wonder rock music basically died in the mainstream, these last 15~ years.

nu-metal is popular with gen z retards, get out of the house every now and again.

This board's recent obsession with "nu metal" is clearly ironic trolling faggotry. NO ONE listens to that shit unironically.

Perfect description.

the bait part is that nu metal was an "organic" movement that wasn't pushed MASSIVELY by record companies

Break Stuff was the one legit classic song the genre produced. The rest you won't miss much by not listening to.
