Several chart topping albums and a roller coaster career ride later, the band starts to look like it’s, well… growing up.
Nu-metal was born and thus far it has survived. But as it so often happens in life (being stranger than fiction and all), it happened.
Fathers of Nu-metal stand! Who would have guessed back in 1994 that a band with a whiny croaker as their vocalist, two sludgy down-tuned seven string guitar wielding axe-men, a bassist who slaps away his five string like there is no tomorrow and a drummer going back to the use of acoustic drums after the electronic drum frenzy of the 80s and early 90s would have helped break a perennially boot-legged form of music still reeling from the death of glam and the waning of thrash and heavy sonic assaults into the mainstream? I don’t think many saw that coming.
