I must agree, Korn have said, I seem to remember, in some interview that they tried to mix hiphop with Death Metal. If you listen to Korn you sure as hell don't hear Hiphop as it is in it's pure form. Neither do you hear anything close to Death, it's a mix. Two things thrown together usually end up in something that's alike neither. Yes many Nu-metal bands have death-INFLUENCES but that's not the same as playing the same thing. Then we might as well keep on talking about how Death bands listened to Black Sabbath when they were young.
