Guest J0bber Report post Posted August 15, 2005 I'm going to have to go with Slipknot because of their vocal versatility of combining death metal like growls, rapping, and melodic singing. Also, they put on a great live show and their lead drummer, Joey is very skilled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CheesalaIsGood 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 Korn: If you ask him, Johnathan Davis doesn't rap. Rage: Really good band both on record and live. Slipknot: In the same vein as Korn, I never really saw them as a rap band considering how much metal/harcore was blended into the formula. ICP: I'm a fan. Funny bastards but they aren't a band. Limp, Linkin, HED: Horseshit! They fucking suck trunks. My vote was for Other those guys are fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Epic Reine 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 I don't think Korn were directly influenced by hip-hop themselves but bands that fused rock and rap/funk like Faith No More. Come to think of it, FNM influenced A LOT of rap/rock bands (Korn, Roach, LB etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbacon 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 Gotta love those death metal growls. Out of that list, Rage takes it. I can't believe someone mentioned/remembered Project Wyze. Even worse, it conjures up memories of having to see them live on two occasions one summer at a couple of festivals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2005 Bacon you poor son of a bitch. I hung out with Project Wyze groupies once at a hotel in Montreal because the band was staying two floors down. They were opening for Tea Party and Ozzy the next night. Even the groupies knew they sucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2005 My first instinct was Run DMC. If I can get away with calling them Rap Rock, then they get my vote.
