Nu-Metal: The Next Generation

by Joel McIver (Author)

Synopsis

This comprehensive A-Z listing has over 100 rap-rock, rap-metal and funk-metal bands, plus a host of other hard-hitting acts from the hip-hop and hardcore punk branches of metal. All of nu-metal life is here, from leaders of the scene such as Limp Bizkit, Korn, Slipnot, Deftones, Papa Roach, Linkin Park, Marilyn Manson, Soulfly, Tool, Amen, At the Drive-In, and System of a Down, through the pioneers of the movement such as Primus, Faith No More, Rage Against the Machine, and Biohazard, all the way up to the newest cutting-edge bands such as One Minute Silence, A Perfect Circle, Coal Chamber, Orgy, Alien Ant Farm, Godsmack, and Videodrome. There's also a full history of events that led to the formation of nu-meta, putting the pieces of the puzzle together with the story of grunge and early rap rockers such as the Beastie Boys.
