We feature nu metal artists every week — established names and brand new bands nobody has heard yet. Send us your single, your video, your tour dates or your announcement and we will put it in front of the people who actually still care about this genre. Free. No pay-to-play.
Heavyweight 6oz nu metal t-shirts and graphic tees from the Nu-Metal.com store. Free US shipping over $60.
Nu-Metal.com is a daily nu metal news site covering the genre that refused to die. Every morning we publish a fresh story on new nu metal music, tour announcements, reunions, festival lineups, music videos and the bands worth hearing about right now — from the acts that defined 1996 to 2003 through to the new wave of nu metal artists coming up today.
New singles, EPs and album announcements. Tour dates, support slots and festival runs. Reunions, lineup changes and anniversary reissues. Music video premieres. Interviews and features. And our weekly New Blood column, where we put five underground and unsigned nu metal bands in front of an audience that is actively looking for them.
The genre is not a museum piece. Nu metal is charting again, filling festivals again, and inspiring a generation of artists who were not born when the first wave hit. We cover the headliners because they matter, and we cover the bands playing to forty people in a basement because that is where the next headliners come from. If you are in a band, send us your music — features are free and always will be.
Nu-Metal.com also runs a small independent streetwear store. Every tee is printed on premium 6oz heavyweight cotton, cut with a relaxed, slightly oversized fit, in small batch runs. Free shipping on US orders over $60, worldwide shipping available, and 30-day returns. Browse the shop or start with Limited Drops.
