When I think nu metal, I think mostly electronic rock and rap rock. I would probably scratch off 50-60% of your list at least if I had a marker and a piece of paper.
I also don't understand the rankings still. I'm assuming your shooting for "most nu metal". Not "best band".
Regardless, having Linkin Park not tier 1 is ridiculous. Hybrid Theory sold 24 million copies worldwide. It was also THE top selling album of 2001. The only rock album to sell more post-1990 is the Black Album.

no, did you see their concert at the varsity? their lyrics and vibe are so cheezy. durst has a better voice and lyrics plus the band itself is very talented

All better than any album Limp Bizkit ever made.
I'd ask you if you were 14 if I didn't know who you are.

OP your list is pretty much money, but I think you are overrating Limp Bizkit a lot. I don't think they are even that good but to have them in the 1st tier, can't say I agree with that. I would put Kid Rock a lot higher too but that's just me. Everything else I can't argue with. You know your shite.

I know. I'm kind of bummed. A nu metal thread made it 6 pages and it's controlled by a moron. No one with half a brain claims that these bands are the most gifted, but they are sure as hell are entertaining. It would have been fun to get feedback and do a real list with real tiers.
Posted on 9/3/14 at 5:23 pm to Galactic Inquisitor
I'll give you that. Deftones is an incredible band. I think they definitely deserve Tier1 status. However, I don't see how chino moreno and carpenter are more talented than Durst. Bizkit also sold more albums
Chocolate starfish and significant other > White Pony
White pony and around the fur had a few good songs but was nothing spectacular. plus Chino moreno is a thug pos LINK
yea bro. stage dives and moshs are soo cool. The guy is pure trash from the way he acts on stage.

I hate to say this but I think I can make a case for Korn getting in the RnR HOF. Their music was pretty groundbreaking when it first came out. No one else sounded like that and they had a huge buzz around them ever since the Blind video debuted. They basically invented a genre, though a shitty one. The fact that they're still around and have been fairly popular for 20 years now is a big achievement. They're on the downside of their career now but I'd still rather see them than most of the recent pop metal bands.

tier 2 FTW

I propose the nu metal band "fall out boy" to tier 3 at least. maybe 4.
LINK
the song "Thnks fr th Mmrs" fits right in with other bad grammar bands of the genre.
