Talk:Slipknot (band)/Archive 1: The Begining – July 2006

Genre

I think we should change the genre to alternative metal/rap metal/heavy metal. That is what the all music guide puts for their genre. DavidJJJ 21:44, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Personally I would approve of adding alternative metal, but would oppose adding either rap metal or heavy metal, or removing nu metal. The only problem with all music in regard to nu-metal is that it does not list nu-metal as a genre in any respect. The mixture of elements from alternative metal, rap metal, and heavy metal is one of the defining elements of nu metal. Wildnox 21:50, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
