Slipknot is a great nu metal band.

I DID MY TIME

They are very much so nu metal
Yes some fans are cringe in every fan base
Their s/t and iowa is ok.

shits nostalgic as fuck for me. still one of my guilty nu metal pleasures, along side static-x.

>>60996556
yea, but do you like nu metal?

>>60996533
literally shit

if they were a parody band they would be the greatest band of all time

>>60996533
They're fucking trash for trash middle schoolers op thanks for asking

>>60996533
Edgy buttshit

>>60996601
I like Slipknot and pre take a look in the mirror corn

>>60996646
literally shit

Dumb fun. Like ICP or Limp Bizkit.

Iowa's title track is fuck top tier though.

>>60996533
They take themselves a little too seriously, but have some decent song (for me those are mostly correlated with the songs where there are more clear vocals)

>>60996650
>>60996667

how's middle school

>>60996650

>>60996533

>>60996731
>>60996739
It's okay I guess

>>60996739
Its so embarrassing to actually see someone try to defend nu-metal

>>60996739
>actually liking slipknot

>>60996533
Corny shit for middle schoolers

>>60996562
AND
I
WANT
OUT

>>60996585
>implying the fans make it cringe
the music literally sounds like middle school

>>60996562
>>60996810
middle schoolers stop shitting up /mu/ please go back to gaia online or something

>>60996810
jesus that's so embarrassing

>>60996700
I knew I guy who acted like that in middle school. Not like narduwar btw,but I'm sure there are middle schoolers like him too

Slipknot is no different than Death Grips
prove me wrong,

protip: you can't

>>60996739
that comeback is slipknot-tier embarrassing

>>60996904
this b8 is slipknot-tier embarrassing

>>60996533
terrible, terrible shit that obviously tries to appeal to middle schoolers

So, what's the problem with nu metal, then? I realize that this board is full of elitists whose tastes are entirely dictated by the circlejerk of other elitists, but is replying with ancient middle school memes really the extent of how far you're able to take the discussion?

>>60996949
I think with at least a few people, it might be embarrassment.

>>60996821
how

>>60996949
nu-metal is all anger with no subtly that shows any reason or sincerity behind it. like the anger a middle schooler feels.

>>60996949
no substance in the music to discuss though

>>60996533
>they are not nu metal
Yes they are, you faggot.
>i love them but the neckbeard fans are cringe
I hate them with a passion, also, their fans aren't old enough to have beards.
>slipkniot is a good band
If you're in middle school, maybe.

>>60996972
sounds about right

>>60996949
i swear if p4k or fantano did a piece about nu metal being some kind of necessary cultural revolution then early slipknot and korn would be as commonly circle jerked as that carly are jepson album

>>60996949
i used to argue like this in middle school

>>60996972
Well, aside from the fact that it's a pretty big generalization, is there no place for expressing pure anger?
>>60996995
Oh, so even less substance than k-pop and noise music? Riiight...

>>60997043
i think p4k might have actually wrote some shit on nu-metal don't quote me on that though

>>60997073
>Oh, so even less substance than k-pop and noise music? Riiight...
no one actually talks about k-pop here. Noise is about making unique arrangements of atonal sounds, although the majority of it is legitimately substanceless cause of how bloated discographies are a thing. Go listen to Pleasure Ground or a John Wiese album something

>>60996904
cheap b8

>>60997158
>>60996003

>>60997211
You're new here huh?
/kpg/ is a containment thread for faggots who enjoy jerking off to the female stars. They probably hate the music as much as any normal person does.
Go back to reddit.

>>60997211
>implying that thread isn't a leper colony for waifuing nerds that no one else bothers with

>also implying they care about the music at all

>>60997158
>no one actually talks about k-pop here.

*anywhere

What's the Korean equivalent of "kawaii uguu~"? Because that's all KPop "discussion" is.

>>60996835
>gaia online

actualaually we r form fucking club penguin

>>60997211
That's just the same 10 guys jerking off to the same plastic dolls. They don't talk about music at all.

>>60997211
go find a post there that talks about the music

>>60997279
>>60997249
>>60997242
And yet I don't see you sperging out over them like you do whenever Slipknot or anything like it comes up.

So basically, what I see is that there is this meme on this board about nu metal being for middle-schoolers. The circlejerk I mentioned before picked it up and ran with it. People who do have diverse tastes and enjoy some Linkin Park or Slipknot or whatever else are shamed by the rest purely based on that meme (plus the shame of people who used to listen to it). Sounds about right?

>>60997446
nu-metal is all anger with no subtly that shows any reason or sincerity behind it. how cleaned up the sound is for something that's supposed to be threatening and agressive is comically over the top too.

>>60997498
So what?

>>60997533
that's why people don't like it past middle school.

>>60997555
It's basically the same as saying that old people enjoy classical music, and it's only relegated to old people, and that's all they should listen to. Musical tastes do evolve over time, but if someone enjoys a certain type of music, so what?

>>60997702
would it be easier to understand if i just called it shit music?
it's shit music.
the middle school thing is just to imply that your tastes are underdeveloped in a funny way.

>>60997732
Death Grips is shit music. There.
Doesn't prove anything.

And also, not that I have to defend myself, but I don't really listen to nu metal. Mostly enjoy folk rock and downtempo-type stuff. Still, I see no reason why nu metal gets so much shit on this board.

Actually, it's a pretty shit board. It's not just k-pop threads, nobody really talks about music here at all. All this board has are threads upon threads of elitist dick-measuring competitions.

>>60997833
It's shit music because: >>60997498

also it's more memes than it is elitist dick-measuring competitions not sure why you'd think that.

>>60997833
Nu metal is 99.9% infantile posturing.

And you obviously don't actually try to have discussions yourself, it's easy to get in a conversation about music here.

I got really drunk and had to listen to People = Shit the other night. That song is still pretty heavy for nu-metal.
I met the entire band during an in-store back in 2001 or something. They were pretty edgy, but atleast I got my IOWA album signed by all the members. I still have it somewhere around here.

hey is it true that the guy from hed pe can actually rap? asking for a friend

>>60997260
c r i n g e

>>60996904
nah, Death Grips is more like Marilyn Manson

>>60996533
>>they are not nu metal!!!
idc what they are.
>>i love them, but the neckbeard fans are cringe
yes
>>slipknot is a good band
yeah, mainly like them for nostalgia but yeah

>>61000360
death grips is more like a bunch of random homeless people they gave recording equipment because they knew the edgy kids would love it

mate. feed. kill. repeat. is barely nu metal, you can call the rest what you want though

>>61001082
thats what i said
