It's not really a slap bass. It's more of a tuned-so-low-it-actually-rattles-on-the-fretboard thing. You can really hear it in the "Freak on a Leash" chorus

That first Evanescense single was one of the first songs I ever illegally downloaded from Napster.
And I did it for a girl even!

I feel like every time Kid Rock is referenced another child is separated from its family.

Not nu-metal, but one of many songs played on modern rock radio circa 2001 alongside various nu-metal/post-grunge singles, thus perpetuating the sense that all rock music released around this time was basically the same.
