I think it's POSSIBLE that nu-metal could be good. Maybe. At it's core it really just needs to be loud, with electronic and/or hip hop influences, crunchy guitars, simplistic song structure, and rapped (or almost rapped) vocals. RATM did it, and did it well. Throw in some samples, some of that new Skrillex flavor into the mix, and the huge Death Grips influence that is inevitable (of course)... Boom. New nu-metal, better than ever.
