I think Korn had plenty of fun, not quite as irreverent as SOAD but they had the scat screaming, bagpipe parts, their cover of Ice Cube's Wicked, a lot of pretty whacked stuff especially for the mid-90s.

And yeah, Faith No More were definitely a huge catalyst for nu-metal as a whole. Helmet too. But there was a specific subsection of industrial influenced nu-metal as well, like Orgy, Dope, Static-X, etc.

I guess this is the day Synthgirl outs herself as a nu-metal kid, haha. I was into that stuff in middle school over 20 years ago so there's a good deal of nostalgia there.
