These guys were so stereotypically nu metal that each band member looked like they were from an existing band 😂 The singer reminds me of Chad Gray from Mudvayne, the blonde guitarist would fit in Linkin Park or Pressure 4-5, the bass player could be in Deftones, the other guitarist looks like Daron from SOAD and the drummer looks like he'd be in Coal Chamber!

I think the problem was that nu metal was very oversaturated by the time this came out. More and more bands came out in the early 2000s. It was the same with glam metal in the late 80s/ early 90s. A lot of good bands got overlooked.

Incredibly talented, dude's voice was incredible, and an awesome look. Side Note: This is my first time seeing this video. I can't help but think their look kinda reminds me of Coal Chamber.

From the moment you hit play, it comes out and punches you in the face with a wave of creative energy and it goes the whole ten rounds. I saw this band live and they were phenomenal. One nation under is still on my play list twenty years later. If they ever tour again, I would pay big bucks to see them. 😁🤟
