What I don't get, is why rally against "nu-metal?" How is that going to accomplish anything? You're not going to stop people from making a certain type of music.
And were proclaimed "nu-metal" bands such as System of a Down or Korn really that bad? What ever happened to just simply ignoring something you don't like? I don't like Korn, I'm not going to listen to them.
But as with Incubus, from what you said the frontman is annoying and their political views are annoying. Doesn't make the music bad though, although I've hardly heard them and honestly don't give a crap about them. I have more awesome music to listen to
