Am I one of the only few that actually likes their nu-metal phase (Diabolus in Musica, God Hates Us All, and Christ Illusion to a lesser extent)? It was the perfect sound for them at the time, with digital recordings becoming the new norm and that heavier hard rock sound being the dominant sound. At the very least, it was the right move for them financially.
Even if you don't like anything to do with nu-metal, you can't deny that those albums kick ass and were far heavier than most other Metal/Hard Rock releases during the late 90's/early 00's.
