Really though, SOAD doesn't incorporate rapping into their music. Serj does strange things with his voice and uses odd rhythms, but never raps. I think the only reason they were considered Nu Metal was due to the timing of the popularity and the how unique they sounded. If they had come out five years earlier I don't think they would have been pigeonholed into Nu-Metal, even retrospectively.
That said, I don't really mind Nu Metal; I even like Linkin Park's first two albums as well as a good amount of Slipknot's work.
