Yeh, I see your point. Its not that I hate nu metal bands, its just trying to get people to see why I like the kind of music I do so much. I see what you mean by sum41 not entirely being a nu metal band, but the fact is that if you walk into any major music store, they are classified as nu metal. But it doesnt really matter anyway.
Do you think that classic rock may be coming round again in a different sort of style, like the music of creed and nickleback? or would they be classed as nu metal maybe?
Also, do you think they'res any bands around now who may be able to make it in the long run because of their unique style, such as U2?
