I know they aren't normally considered a metal band, and I haven't heard any of their albums, but Wikipedia & Allmusic tag them as alternative metal and nu metal, there are also some very metal riffs on their cover of Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal

I�ve suggested them for inclusion a while back, but they were rejected by the old alternative team. I personally believe they belong here.

Judging by what i've read i'd imagine they sound pretty similar to the lighter, more alternative rock sounding nu metal bands like Linkin Park and Papa Roach, and those bands are on here, so i think they would fit in alright in alternative metal or possibly hard rock.

From what I remember of them, they probably have some potential to be here in some form.  I'll check out some more of their songs to see if they fit under alt metal.  If not, I'll check with the hard rock guys. Smile

Some of their stuff may be more appropriate for hard rock, but I placed it under alternative metal for now and changes can always be made in the future.

As this has been handled, I'll lock this thread.
