Can anybody really define Nu Metal?
I mean, is it really a genre?
It really seems more like an excuse to categorize "strange" metal.
Bands like System or Korn, and other bands with indescribable sounds.
Admittedly, those are the only bands I know that've ever been labeled "Nu Metal" >.>
Regardless;
Nu Metal; what is it?
What makes a song Nu-esque?
Pink lemonade?

Honestly I haven't heard bands like Korn be called Nu Metal but I suppose that the way I choose to describe Nu metal is Old metal in a car compact. mrgreen But really the only way I can think a song becomes "Nu" is if it has enough power chords and if the band can make it further than a few songs for top hits.

I always thought of Nu Metal as metal with, like, a kind of all-ranging influence.
Like metal, but not like metal, ya?
Get what I'm saying?

Ellathea~ Listen to these bands, one after another;
Black Sabbath
Led Zepplin
Metallica
System of a Down
Judas Priest

That should clear up your fuzzy ear to metal.
