Yeah I changed my mind after listening to Judith.theplatypus wrote:At least "Judith" should be. That chorus is pretty nu-metalish
Are you referring to Beautiful Midnight? If you are, I agree. I adore that album, it's in my top 5.Anders wrote:Yes, I was least certain of Lifehouse.

Matthew Good Band made the best post-grunge album.
My favorite nu metal video has to be Korn’s Thoughtless, it’s got Jesse Pinkman as a bullied teen hiring a prostitute to be his prom date, and he shows up in a pimp outfit with the girl in some dress full of eyes and then they projectile vomit on everyone.LoathedVermin72 wrote:As I'm gathering all the YouTube videos for the threads, one motif I am noticing popping up again and again in, like, 80% of these music videos is "hot" women staring at the lead singer, who is sad/disinterested. It's really hilarious, and everyone should keep an eye out for it as we go through these rounds.
I just watched this. You forgot to mention the singing faces popping out from his torso.

Matthew Good Band made the best post-grunge album.
As for the post grunge in the title, it didn't register with me because everyone has been mostly focussed on NU metal Sorry.

Yes, post grunge has been somewhat overlooked in this contest. A majority of nu-metal related bands chosen.
