So I obviously vote for Incubus. Wish You Were Here jams.
I don't really care for them much one way or the other, but man, it's easy to forget that the band that released the Blackening was once this terrible. Trend chasing indeed.

I was only familiar with Machine Head's The Blackening. I didn't know they were once Nu Metal. That was horrible.

The Incubus song is great. I think I'm a little gay for the singer.

Other song sucks.

Agreed. I voted for it here, but probably won't after this match. Its a really good song so it probably doesn't belong in this tournament.

Now, Pardon Me, has many of the hallmarks of a nu-metal song.

They’re nu metal again on their new album.

The song “Bastard” is hilariously bad.

I got tired of WYWH because it was everywhere for a while, which set me to avoiding it for long stretches. But it's still easily the much better song here.
