Inexplicably so. One of the worst offenders since they ripped the riff from the Chili Peppers Pretty Little Ditty.
There were lots of turkeys in the late 90s like pretty much every Kid Rock single was laughably terrible and that’s not even hindsight, they were terrible when they were released. I was convinced half the kids in my class musta had a glue sniffing problem to find “American Badass” compelling.

I liked one or two of his early singles (I do not know any of their names).

NOW GET IN THE PIT AND TRY TO LOVE SOMEONE
 
Interesting. I never really think back on that one as Nu Metal but it was definitely of it's time.

The only real Nu metal album that I've listened to recently (I went down a bit of a rabbit hole after the Woodstock 99 documentaries) that I found holds up is Toxicity.

I listened to Slipknot’s debut a few months back to see if there was nostalgia still.

There absolutely wasn’t, I’m 40 and it’s really really fucking loud and really really fucking angry. But for what it is and what it is trying to be it absolutely holds up.

I still hold a bit of nostalgia for those first 2-3 albums. When my wife found out her dad had to be admitted for emergency heart surgery, we were driving from St. Louis to rural Indiana and she told me "just put on something angry." So that's what I put on. Did the job, and his procedure ended up going well. Thanks, Slipknot!

Yeah, I would say Slipknot is a band that was never my thing but I respected in just how hard they went. Those fuckers were not on MTV TRL playin’ grab ass with the Carson Daily and The Backstreet Boys they were were puking on their fans through the nose holes in their grimy masks.

They were one of my first concerts and set the bar high. Between their drummer drumming upside down in a cage or one guy just banging a baseball bat on a keg to all the masks, what's not to like?

Yeah my first live music was a festival in 00. They were very good live and 16-18 Joe had anger. That said rage played the same day and set the bar for live music immeasurably high right off the bat!
