managed on this classic track, weвЂ™re bang up for hearing StormzyвЂ™s nu-metal side project. Frankly, if it's as good Pharrell and co. In an era of rockers going rap, it was refreshing to see some rappers doing rock. Yeah, the funky wah-wah guitars and punk rhythms are great, but itвЂ™s the energy of Strait that really made Snot something special. The first track from SnotвЂ™s only album with him, Get Some, it shoved his talent and attitude in your face. What happens when a thrash legend ropes in the most recognisable figurehead in rap-rock for the lead single on his long-awaited new band? Answer: all of the shit gets lost.ДЇrontman Lynn Strait might have tragically died in a car accident in 1998, but his legacy lived on in this dancefloor filler and nu metal classic. The addition of Limp BizkitвЂ™s Fred DurstВ and DJ Lethal would give the song an added hip hop swagger. It was enough to push BleedВ into the kind of emotional, urgent territory from which great art is made, but there was still something extra-special to sprinkle on the top of the noise. He wrote this to pay his respects to his late stepson. No one knew that feeling more than Max CavaleraВ in 1998, as he reeled from the loss of his stepson, Dana. Metal has always been a refuge from which you draw strength: some of our most iconic and powerful moments were birthed from heartbreak, pain, rage and frustration. Those wacky Americans, eh? 27) Soulfly вЂ“ Bleed While in jolly olвЂ™ England we largely ignored Saliva, this song still ignites nostalgia-fuelled mayhem on dancefloors across the States. With that amount of bounce, how could it not be? But this rager certainly owes more to Rob Zombie and Marilyn MansonвЂ™s industrial stomp than it does to Limp BizkitвЂ™s big-shorted shenanigans. Turn Me On 'Mr DeadmanвЂќ is definitely a nu-metal anthem. 32) Union Underground вЂ“ Turn Me On вЂњMr DeadmanвЂќ ItвЂ™s definitely the closest to pop music that metal has ever become, but to deny the songs that could still make 80,000 people at Donington lose their minds 15 years on would be nothing short of ridiculous. Was it metal? Well, you couldnвЂ™t put them on at Wacken, thatвЂ™s for sure.

The out-of-the-gates success of Hybrid TheoryВ made Linkin Park a household name from the start, setting the band off on a roll that would see the album become one of the biggest selling rock albums of the past 20 years. On the verge of becoming MTV darlings, Incubus flexed their mainstream muscles with this laid-back, lovelorn, semi-acoustic effort that showcased Brandon BoydвЂ™s vocal prowess, rather than just his six-pack. The ethereal verses brilliantly accentuate the paint-stripping roar of the chorus. On My Own Summer (Shove It), they stretched their musical dynamics to breaking point. 35) Deftones вЂ“ My Own Summer (Shove It)Дeftones were nu-metalвЂ™s most scathing and yet fragile band. Nearly 15 years later, we still want a new SOAD album. Everything System Of A Down ever did was pulled off with integrity, class and conviction. System Of A Down packaged the apocalyptic rage of Jello Biafra, club-ready nu-metal bounce, a fierce political agenda and Eastern influences to create a sound that hadnвЂ™t been heard before or replicated since. 36) System Of A Down - War?ДЇor all of the crowing about Limp BizkitвЂ™s cartoonish approach, Kid Rock dicking around with a dwarf in a Stetson and everything about Coal Chamber, nu-metal did occasionally produce something that deserved critical gravitas. Ultra-political rap rockers of Irish, Gibraltan and English descent singing about downtown LA really shouldnвЂ™t have worked, but South Central was an instant moshвЂ‘ready anthem for the masses.
