LOL I find it funny that people think these bands are metal. You think they are metal because MTV or the radio tells you they are metal. HAHHAHAHAHA. They are all in the heavy rock genre.

Listen to some Slayer, Morbid Angel, Nile, or In Flames.....you shall then know what REAL metal is all about. :)

Anyways, I do happen to think Staind is an awesome band. That guy can just plain sing very well.

By new I mean they are just starting to become known, I know that Slipknot and many other bands on the list have been around for awhile but they weren't exactly well known.
Also, I changed the poll title to more acurrately describe the genre.
SlipperyJoe: I don't watch MTV, as a matter of a fact I hate it with a passion. And I take that remark as an insult;)

I didn't mean it as an insult, well if you do like MTV it was meant as an insult :p. I really like Staind so i wasn't trying to insult anything that has to do with the style of music. I also like tool which is far from a new group.

I just get a big kick out of the radio when they say something on the lines of, "Here is the new one from the metal band Korn!!" First off when korn first hit the scene they said they were NOT metal. They were not trying to be metal. But of course with the media pushing them as the "new metal" they just shutup and agreed.

Anyways, SOAD kicks massive ass live!!!!

p.s. Know who I can't stand??? SOULFLY!!!!!!!! God they went SO AGAINST their roots. Of course new sepultura sucks IMO also.
