Fred Durst came along told them he'd make them rich if they'd tone it down a bit, and then Aaron Lewis found some peace in his life.
My band has a little bit of nu metal in our sound, but I wouldn't say we're trying to revive the style (it hasn't really gone away all that much). Some aspects of nu metal are pretty cool, but on the whole I don't feel the vibe. I like a guitar solo now and then, and anger is a pretty shallow emotion to base your whole sound on.
But to dismiss the whole thing is just fucking ignorant and snobbish.
