That whole arguement of Mushroomhead/Slipknot is as old as dirt. Facts state that Mush was wearing their old-ass masks before Slipknot was around, but who cares. They're masks. Everyone wears them. One band has more obvious talent than the other. Every band rips off every other band to the point that it just shouldn't even be thought of any more.
As for the "nu-metal" label, I get aggrivated by seeing people label what I listen to as that. I think it's an elitest term by death/blackmetal faggots that think what they listen to is the best ever, and nothing compares. I've been through round after round with this one elitist faggot on another message board and it'll never be settled. I listen to "rock", "metal" and I've basically labeled Crossbreed as "cyberrock". And some "industrial rock", now that I'm looking through my iTunes list.

Well no its not really an elitist term, its basically what it is... Like for example tons and tons of nu metal shit mainly use powerchords for songs without using leads and such... For example, Coal Chamber (i love the music but jesus christ the lyrics are something written by a twelve year old, if you dont believe me look at the lyrics, so much grammar incorrections) most of the chords are power chords maybe even barred (since meegs plays drop tuning), I mean yes they sound good, but anybody can make up that shit. Same with slipknot. same with korn (except for some older stuff). It is being used for death/black/metal fuckers just to diss the whole subgenre but its really that... a genre. like black metal being annoying but high skill is required for the guitar, death metal being as fast as fuck but sounds the same after a while blah blah blah... Numetal is flagged because its like teenage band bullshit, like five angsty kids who just picked up guitar and stuff... I mean mushroomhead is pretty easy to do too.
Coal chamber is fucking old too, just as old as korn i dont see how people think they are rip off of each other, they sound similiarly but theres no way it was ripped out of each other. guess people think that because the guitars are basically the same, but again if there really is no skill required thats whats gonna happen... Mushroomhead is in now way in hell a rip off of slipknot. Listen to the music. Slipknot is "i want to punch your face because you looked at me the wrong way but im fucking angry" and mushroomhead is "im going to destroy your mind and make you think of all the shit you have done. Laugh at you while your eyes rot inside your head. and slash your throat." see more complex.. and in every aspect too.

Damn straight... and I'd say Slipknot is also a "angry at people because they judge us for being weird looking on purpose, but when we're not being Slipknot, we're just normal looking guys that you'd never expect to wear weird masks. we're also homo's." ...that last sentence was kind of a paraphrase by me.
