Exactly what I was getting at. It just doesn't sound like metal, so it makes me want to chuck that Korn album across the store, because it just doesn't belong in the metal section. Nor does Staind, though I like Staind a little bit. They simply are not metal. But the Slipknot I've heard sounds metal enough. I've only heard but two of their albums, though: S/T and Iowa.
Dont get me wrong, just because its not metal doesnt mean its a bad genre. Its just that the term Nu Metal isnt appropriate. Especially the Metal word, it makes people think they're going to hear a new kind of metal genre, only to realize that's not the case at all.
