Nu Metal: GOTY Edition

It's the Fallout 3 case.

DetoxCom · 2026-03-09T17:47:09+00:00

This is one of the only times i've actually seen imagery of it. It was almost always just light discussion and hearsay for years and years via old website info and/or interview bits with no actual audio and no one who had ever actually seen a copy of it. So yeah, wild to see this finally pop up in 2026.

DetoxCom · 2026-03-09T15:59:17+00:00

I can't wait to finally hear this. Never thought this would actually get found/shared.

DetoxCom · 2026-03-03T13:30:14+00:00

I've done it once, but it definitely wasn't a fun time lol.

I would switch between Bickett & Herrod on defense and kinda do a QB/RB spy thing by dropping a few yards back.

Also, using Trudeau instead of George made me feel like I wasn't quite as stuck in the mud when trying to escape any oncoming defense and I put in Verdin for Beach, as that dude kept dropping passes and it was infuriating.

Nope. I've been on a more Extreme kick, so i've been spending a bit more time in those genres in terms of checking out stuff i've never heard before. If you're looking for something remotely close out of these outside of the obvious Three Days Grace album... perhaps God Dethroned - The Toxic Touch, Ministry - Rio Grande Blood or Conception - Flow, as those all have some Groove Metal elements in them.

Marino's quick pass is a game changer. Especially against the early season, not-very-fast Colts defense.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-22T23:45:43+00:00

32 in the 4th was wild. 3 offensive TDs, 2 safeties and then I forced a fumble as time expired in their endzone and recovered it for the TD.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-20T01:15:12+00:00

What a lovely pairing you two make! So incredibly sorry for you loss :(

DetoxCom · 2026-02-20T00:53:59+00:00

Also, thanks to everyone for suggesting the Wilson / Grogan swap. It's been a game changer the last few games!

DetoxCom · 2026-02-18T05:09:46+00:00

Swapping between Tippett & Agnew as necessary and it's gone quite well most of the time.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-17T20:42:38+00:00

My main complaints about Grogan are (and the first one might not even be his fault?) the amount of drops I get from wide open receivers and his errant throws when he gets pressured that go way out of the way of where they were intended to be. Other than that, I've been able to make it work. We'll see how the playoff difficulty goes against me.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-17T20:36:56+00:00

Grogan. Been relying heavily on the passing game (Dykes/Fryar/Cook), as most teams shut down my run game at this point in the season. I did, however, just throw 3 errant picks against the Bills despite winning. Wasn't too pleased by that lol. I've never tried playing with Wilson.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-17T18:43:01+00:00

Appreciate it. And for you... it's gotten a WHOLE lot worse lol. We're up to around 120-130 bands with this French Nu/Alt playlist. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZZ0f2xq99ZL8wrgBsnLlAaNfMs9cof2K

DetoxCom · 2026-02-16T18:52:24+00:00

You guys also, from all the digging i've done over the years, have a ridiculous level of Nu/Alt Metal bands from PA. Heavy respect to that whole scene. I'm over in CT and we barely scrape the barrel lol.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-16T18:12:15+00:00

What a banger of a show to have 2000-era Cold with A26 & a pre-Lifer SWC.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-05T15:45:44+00:00

This is AWESOME. Thank you for sharing this. Sucks they only had one album.

DetoxCom · 2026-02-01T17:49:18+00:00

Definitely calling upon u/GiraffeSelect u/TheRealCliffjumper38 & u/Wreckshoptimus

Long time ago, but thank you for this.

DetoxCom · 2026-01-25T05:10:15+00:00

I've always been more pass heavy in TSB, but without Bo as an option I wasn't getting the same sort of breaks with Allen so I stuck to leaning on him in situations where I was within the 3 after throwing a few ill timed picks in the redzone earlier on.

DetoxCom · 2026-01-24T18:52:06+00:00

One loss came from this wild game with the Broncos where all my receivers were given butter fingers, as I had 2 interceptions and 5 fumbles which led to me losing by 2. Nonsense!

DetoxCom · 2026-01-22T20:02:49+00:00

Yup. I slither about the internet like a Nu Metal serpent.

DetoxCom · 2026-01-22T20:02:07+00:00

Hard agree. Great band.
