Rappers love hip-hip, metalheads love metal, and I can appreciate that. But if anyone starts talking about some sort of artistic purpose as their sole or primary motivation, it's total bullshit.

Thank you, and there's no way we're the only two people here that object to that.

I'm interested in knowing what you guys like about Korn's dubstep ventures. I'm also interested in knowing why you think it's so ridiculous to like Korn, JRA.

Stop dodging. Answer the question. Why do you think glam and nu-metal are "false"?

P.S. Making something for your love of metal/hip-hop and claiming to make it for metal/hip-hop itself is are two different things; the first is entirely acceptable and the reason most people make music in the first place, and the second is entirely elitist bullshit that only the most unbearable snobs believe. Metal does not "need" people to released non-glam-and-nu-metal albums.

Fuck off Machine Head, I don't answer questions from shit slurping trolls.

As for Korn dubstep, the fact that people like their dubstep more than their real material is hilarious.

I like this at least:

I don't have anything against nu-metal. Except for Limp Bizkit, but that's all on them.

If it ain't metal, it ain't real music.

I guess JRA is going metal-archives here and saying that because it's popular means it isn't real metal.

Metal-archives isn't like that. If anything the mods are too lenient.

AiC are on the site anyway, if JRA follows their definitions strictly.

So is Dokken.

MH, you do know how to translate that don't you? That's anyone who won't join his brain-dead incestuous little circle-jerk where everyone agrees with everyone else.

Bro, you are very mad. Calm down, it's gonna be OK.

Anyways, yea I'm a traditionalist asshole, but I never said I lived and died by who gets accepted into metal-archives. Otherwise I'd actually like Faith No More and Dokken. and yes, I still think DLR Van Halen should be considered metal.
