I watched the singer of Disturbed try and pick up a 15 year old girl at a show during their first record tour, proceed to get laughed at by the girl. then go backstage to get ready for the band's performance...His gimmick at the time (not sure since then), was to be wheeled out to the front of the stage Hannibal Lechter style (with full on straight jacket and face mask)....I could never take the band seriously after that.

I know the singer of Disturbed. (Not well, but we have mutual friends and have hung out on multiple occasions.) While I can see that story being true, Dave is actually a quality guy in many ways. Genuinely nice and easy to hang out with. Just a good guy.

EDIT: And I have no favorite Nü Metal band. Just don't like the stuff.

I voted System of a Down because i remember liking a song by them once.


This one?



My initial reaction was that I hate all these bands, but your post reminded me that I did enjoy a couple of System of a Down tracks in the same half-drukenly-pounding-my-steering-wheel way that I enjoyed QOTSA's "No One Knows" or Ozzy's "No More Tears".

Also, I couldn't pick out there music if you held a knife to my throat, but I remember reading an article about Slipknot once and thinking they were pretty funny guys.

Agreed. I was never a fan of their music, and his little display of pedofilia did him no favors in my eyes, but I have heard decent things about him as well as a person. still probably my least favorite in this poll though...

Yup. Have you seen Blood into Wine? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1394383/
