By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.

All the nu metal i have heard sucks. Most nu metal bands have no talent and have 2 stupid powercords throughout the whole song.I'm guessing most the guitarists in nu metal bands dont have the slightest clue about music and how you actually make a proper song .
