Nu Metal is where big hooks, heavy riffs and hip-hop swagger all crash into each other.
Turn-of-the-millennium chaos to crossover classics, here we round up the bands that took loud music to the next level.
Step into Nu Metal with our collection of official merch, vinyl records and CDs. Built on huge riffs, hip-hop swagger, groove-heavy rhythm and hooks that hit just as hard as the guitars, Nu Metal remains one of the most distinctive and recognisable corners of modern heavy music. Whether you came in through the genre’s defining first wave or through newer bands carrying that same bounce, weight and crossover energy, this page is designed to help you explore the sound that defined a generation.
Our selection features essential releases and official merchandise from some of the most important bands associated with Nu Metal and its wider orbit, including Korn, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Deftones, Disturbed, System Of A Down, Rage Against The Machine, Cypress Hill, Incubus, Sepultura and Body Count. From first-wave chaos and rap-metal crossover to groove-heavy alt metal and newer revival sounds, these artists helped shape a style that still feels loud, physical and larger than life.
Hear Nu Metal the way it deserves to be heard on vinyl. Our collection includes classic albums, crossover essentials and standout pressings for fans who want every turntable scratch, downtuned riff and massive chorus to hit with full force. Nu Metal has always lived on impact, texture and attitude, and vinyl still gives these records the room to sound big, bold and full of bite.
Spend time with the genre-defining weight of Korn, the crossover power of Linkin Park, the chaos of Slipknot, or the left-field pull of Deftones and System Of A Down. This page is here to do more than shift records. It is built to help fans discover the wider Nu Metal world as well, from first-wave essentials to modern bands and crossover artists who still carry that same bounce, groove and swagger.
For fans who still want the direct hit and sharp clarity of digital audio, our Nu Metal CDs keep every riff, beat and vocal switch-up intact. From the heavyweights of Disturbed, Rage Against The Machine and Sepultura to the crossover pull of Cypress Hill, Incubus and Body Count, these albums remain essential listening for anyone building a strong Nu Metal collection.
Alongside the music, you will also find official Nu Metal merch from many of the same artists, including t-shirts, hoodies and accessories. The focus stays on the bands and the sound, but the merch matters because it grows out of that same connection to the music. That is what turns a genre page into a useful discovery hub rather than just another product grid.
Build your Nu Metal collection with official merch, vinyl and CDs from some of the genre’s biggest and most influential names. Whether you are here for the foundations laid by Korn and Deftones, the crossover force of Linkin Park and Slipknot, or the wider groove-heavy pull of Cypress Hill, Sepultura, Body Count and newer names carrying the same energy, there is plenty here worth a deep dig through.
