This is the proudest achievement of my professional career so far and I'm gonna tell you why
After two decades of being unavailable for streaming anywhere on earth Sacramento, CA's own Simon Says' albums Jump Start and Shut Your Breath are available on all platforms for the first time ever.
The result of dogged determination by

Everyone is so used to celebrities making statements like this now that nobody can appreciate how brave it was to do this in 2001, just after 9/11, at a metal show. Like he was real as shit for this! No IG, no Twitter, no news crew he just needed people to know.
At a show in St Paul, Minnesota Corey Taylor of Slipknot calls out the rise in hate crimes following the 9/11 terrorist attacks (2001)

Another issue with Making Nu Metal Happen is stratification. A fan of My Chemical Romance being a fan of Fall Out Boy being a fan of Paramore is almost a given. Meanwhile a fan of Slipknot might fucking HATE Limp Bizkit. A fan of Deftones might want nothing to do with Korn.

For anyone checking in I wanna be crystal clear about htis cuz I am not in the business of lying:
I'm good. The whole thing was a bit. It was a blast but it's time to get back to the task at hand which is platforming nu-metal bands, young and old, that deserve the attention.

Do not let anyone shame you for having your life changed by 'basic indie' acclaimed music. OK Computer. Loveless. Pet Sounds. Sgt Peppers. Blue Album. White Pony. The Velvet Underground. All brilliant, brilliant albums do not let anyone take that experience away from you

Unless you're picking a song everyone knows ("In the End," "Break Stuff") and/or just don't care doing nu-metal songs at karaoke is mostly a crapshoot. You forget it's hoe-scaring music until you're up there, mic in hand, scaring the hoes.

I know I have a bit of a reputation for being tough on nu-metal so let me be clear:
This album is a miracle. It is such an unbelievably unique force for good in heavy music that it makes me emotional. I will never be able to express enough how grateful I am that it exists.
29 years.
Share your most crucial memories of the album that started it all in the replies.

Sorry to McKenty your timeline but it's because 20-30 years ago rock bands were getting full-court press coverage with huge budgets and they want that ability now. It's not cuz "music suxx these days" it's because all the great young musicians now are all still working day jobs.

I will never get tired of "Freak on a Leash" or "Got the Life." Pop music miracles. Songs so unique nothing else, not by the band or otherwise, sounds anything like it. If anything I don't hear those songs *enough.*

The idea that System of a Down aren't nu-metal is so insanely egregious because without nu-metal there is no System of a Down. No other heavy genre could have created or supported them, they just don't happen.

This is why “Deftones-esque” does not do it for me anymore put the “Cherry Waves” DOWN write me a goddamn HOOK or a CHORUS I am Madonna telling you to get back in that studio and RAP
it’s my general problem with the 90s alt rock thing happening lately: most of the bands doing it don’t seem to have an actual reference point in mind, just a loose, amorphous vibe/style. i don’t hear a lot 90s rock in the songwriting, just in the production.

Millennial Slipknot Fans: Older brother put me on. They slap bro, hard as fuck.
