shouldn't be compared to likes of korn/slipknot/etc but that doesn't mean they ain't nu metal. They ARE. Listen to 7 words or something. It's NU METAL. it has hip hop in it. even 7 words has rapping in it. Listen to nosebleed, lotion etc. The reason why people call them nu metal is cause they rejected the label. That's why everyone denies Acacia strain as deathcore, because the singer rejected the label. Just cause the band rejects the label, doesn't mean they aren't nu metal. If they move from the genre, that obviously means they were nu metal (EARLY). A7X were originally metalcore and their page says metalcore (early) in the box. We can't remove metalcore. We can add nu metal (Early). also you're the only one who won't agree to add nu metal anyways. I mean really, how can they not be nu metal when you hear hip hop ful on in 7 words, lotion, etc and 7 words has rapping in it, korn guitar riffs. Their old stuff sounds a ton like Korn. Even Chino collaborated with korn before in the 90s, in the 2000s, that's when they stopped playing nu metal, doesn't stop the fact that they were nu metal (early). and deftones also were known as one of the bands who set up the nu metal movement, whether people can't accept they were nu metal or not, they are nu metal. Even rolling stone call them nu metal, and rolling stone are some the best reviewers, even nu metal authors who knew everything to define nu metal, knew the definition of the genre, etc described them as nu metal and proved it by saying what they sound like.
285:
prove their old sound as nu metal. I don't know why people don't call them nu metal. At least the 90s stuff. If you listen to songs like 7 Words, Nosebleed, Lotion and stuff then you'll think nu metal in your mind. I mean even 7 words has rapping in the song and even turntables. I bet the reason why they're rejected as nu metal by fans all the time is because they don't like that term or maybe they haven't listened to those songs and probably haven't listen to their pre-White Pony stuff. Can't we at least try adding nu metal? When I went on the talk page and some guy listed sources "Denying" them as nu metal, a couple were unreliable, but the reliable ones SPECIFICALLY said they were nu metal in their early years but in the early 2000s they abandoned that sound, saying they quit nu metal possibly in like 2000 or something. So thus, they ain't denying the band as nu metal. We should add it.
1054:
moved on with recent releases (at the very least, they support both arguements). But they are not in great quantity, making them a minority opinion. As proven with my last post, there are sources as recent as this year that still label the band as nu metal (pioneers, integral to the movement, best band from that genre) and a quick search will turn up more sources in support than against. As far as I'm aware, the general practice is overarching genres first (alternative metal in this case), followed by sub-genres (nu metal). But much like "it's covered by so there's is no need to include it", I haven't seen a guideline that supports it. If this discussion has proved anything, it's that nu metal is significant to the band's history, much more than alternative metal and experimental rock.
256:
best." This article, and specifically these two passages, clearly acknowledges that
Deftones are/were widely recognized as a nu metal band, but argues that maybe they shouldn't be labeled as such. I think this accurately summarizes the debate that's been going on at this talk page for... a year now? There are countless mainstream sources that label Deftones as nu-metal, and a handful of minor articles arguing that say maybe that label doesn't really fit. So what's the best way to represent that Deftones are widely recognized as nu-metal but some people disagree with this label? That's really where the debate got held up. And as I said before, I personally disagree that Deftones are nu-metal; I'm just trying to apply wikipolicies like
1122:], next, for HrZ, i clearly stated that the Nu metal article WITH it's respective sources. Finally the sources opposing Deftones being nu metal (whether saying that they never were, or that they moved on) in no way support nu metal either, you are trying to find a void, but is one that don't favors you at all. By wikipedia guidelines the infobox must include only the most prominent genres and the most general ones, not something that they only played in one album decades ago, controversial genres must be kept away of the infobox (and you can't deny that nu metal is controversial and clearly too debated between the press), but talked about in the body of the article and on it's respective albums.
1073:
well. In my opinion, "Nu metal (early), alternative metal" is fine and does not clutter up the infobox needlessly. HrZ, I don't know if this is what you were looking for, but that's my opinion. As for the other genres mentioned early on, this discussion hasn't focused much on it and no sources were brought up to support it. "Experimental rock" might as well be dropped since there is no plethora of sources, apparently, supporting it--and let's face it, we should not get silly by listing a half a dozen genres that in the end are all sub-genres of one. The main text already clarified plenty, to an almost ridiculous extent. Thank you,
452:
people say that deny them as nu metal are just saying that the band left the nu metal sound in the early 2000s, which says that they used to be nu metal. Also, if there's more people supporting nu metal versus only 1 guy against nu metal. I think it's fine. People who deny them as nu metal probably never listened to their 1990s stuff. Some people think White Pony was their debut even though they were quite famous in the late 1990s. One person disagreeing isn't enough. At least he should listen to songs like 7 Words or Lotion or
Nosebleed. Let's just add it. I think it'll be fine. Let's just put {

There were discussions on the constant changing on the infobox without discussion, hence the note that states to discuss changes first. You added post-metal without discussion, then after it was discussed, ou removed nu metal without discussing aswell, then reverted its re-addition telling others to discuss instead. As for your sources:

subject of nu metal, it was removed without consensus during the (very long) post-metal discussion. The discussion on nu metal went stale but there is no standing consensus on the genre, but there were more editors in favour (think it was about 3-5), due to the sources in support, than against (one editor). If we can finally get some sort of consensus on it then that would be great, but it's not worth another discussion that lasts months like before.

You are missing an important point regarding post-metal: That there is no sources denying

That's a lot to imply with generality; don't include controversial genres, only prominent/general genres.

It's implied on "generality", it's like when, some months back i wanted to add post-metal to the infobox because three albums are considered such, however, i realized that only a part of the discography it's not enough to add it to the infobox of the entire band, also, if there is or not more sources

This is another issue with placing "nu-metal" in the category box. Not only is "nu-metal" already covered by "alternative metal," but most sources stating that

HrZ, how is possible that sources saying things like "Despite occasionally being lumped (wrongly) into the nu-metal movement" or "people look back on the album as either the point the band moved away from nu metal" don't support the idea of the band not being it? they still bring more support to they

451:
If there are 20 sources calling them nu metal by people who very well know that genre, nu metal authors, and even magazines who've experienced nu metal, then nu metal should go on the infobox. I mean those sources proved them nu metal by describing how nu metal their early stuff is. All the sources
424:
Not enough for the infobox. There are a substantial amount sources for alternative metal, experimental and nu metal, but the sources for the likes of post rock/metal and such are few, we would be giving them undue weight to include them (in the infobox, a mention in the article is fine). As for the

I was asked by HrZ to look at this discussion--like most genre discussions, it's a bit pointless, in my opinion, but then, I grew up during NWOBHM. It appears to me that "nu metal" is valid, and adding "early" in the infobox does not strike me as a big problem. "Alternative metal" is verified as

That's pretty much irrelevant since i'm 100% sure that the number of sources calling them nu metal far outweigh the ones denying them as it, or the ones calling them other genres. Just google

The sources that state that the band "moved away of nu metal" don't support nu metal at all, the most they do is to imply that the band was nu metal in 2 of their albums, wich in no way is relevant enough considering that the band have released 7 albums on it's carrer. It's the same reason for

Actually you'll find back in the 90s most nu metal bands were just called alternative metal, it's only more recently the media have started labelling bands nu metal, a term which basically didn't exist in the late 90s/early 00s when nu metal was most popular. Also to say nu metal shouldn't be
824:"Several of your sources can't be confirmed or state that the band already moved from nu metal." - As I recall, you were the one that could't confirm the sources. Quotes/screenshots can be produced, doesn't make them any less reliable. Moved from nu metal doesn't deny that they are or were,
1350:
The best that these sources do is to say that Deftones were nu metal on their first two albums, wich is not enough to add it in the infobox, we also have no need to follow the example of any other article. We need to follow the wikipedia policies and guidelines, wich aim for generality.
766:“I thought we really separated ourselves from that nu-metal thing with White Pony (the band’s third record in 2001),” he says. “I think we’re way beyond any of that; a lot of those types of bands, for the most part not too many of them are around. We’re still growing and making records"
1104:
If we're gonna remove experimental rock (which i would support) then how about alternative rock in the infobox? since there are a plethora of sources old and new labelling them as that genre, which i'm sort of surprised to see is not included in the infobox along with nu metal.
1160:
supporting nu metal is something that is yet to be confirmed, and even if that were true, it stills being a genre that belongs only to their first two records, not what they do today, and it stills being a genre too debated by specialized press to be added in the main infobox.
1258:
It's obvious their old stuff is nu metal. Seriously, people who deny them as nu metal actually think white pony is their debut, or at least never heard their 90s stuff, or they can't call them nu metal cuz the band rejected it. Here are many sources describing them nu metal.

That was from a quick search. Add them to the other 20+ sources and there are a significant amount of reliable sources stating that Deftones are nu metal. As I have said before, I don't believe them to be nu metal, but as stated by I call the big one bitey, this isn't about
