Depends what you consider nu metal bands Please make a list I thought there already was one On the List of Nu metal musical groups only Korn and Kittie overlap and I didn t even add Kittie to the Alternative metal list someone else did All others that overlap are filed under Instigators Progenators which means they aren t nu metal artists Pretty much all of them on the list are correct However the insigators were simply some of the first Nu Metal bands I ve listed them below Deftones Fear Factory Godsmack Korn Rage Against the Machine System of a Down They are all Nu Metal bands If there is a Alternative Metal genre it needs defining as exactly what it is Gothic metal s and symphonic metal s Sound Constructs and Lyrics sections make for good templates for writing down what a genre consists of I do nt want to delete this article if it can be kept as a lot of editers have put good work into this But if its essentially Nu Metal it needs to be merged If needs be it can be mentioned on the Nu Metal article in the same way Gothic Doom is mentioned in the gothic metal article
