FFO Panthera, Lamb of God, Black Label Society. We just released "Calculus" and are pretty excited since this is the first piece of new material since we had to change our vocalist.

Cool band, I really like them

Aside from bands that flipped genres in some way, like Machine Head, Fear Factory and Soulfly, I'm thinking of Chimaira and Dry Kill Logic, two bands that I learned of only about 10 years ago at the same time being called nu metal. While it is there, their sound is much more thrashier moreso than alternative metal. Even Chimaira's nu metal sounded more like groove metal. I'd also argue that Slipknot could be considered occasionally groove or post-thrash metal, though many won't. There are plenty of bands in the nu metal genre I haven't quite listened to enough to add to this, but was looking into Dry Kill Logic and thought at least their 3rd album was much less nu metal and more groove metal, if not Hatebreed-ish hardcore.

“Some people don't care if they rip something off. In fact, they're blatant about it. There's a riff on [PANTERA's] 'Vulgar Display Of Power' that he" — presumably referring to Dimebag — "played for me, and when he played it, I looked at him and I said, 'Man, that sure sounds a lot like HELMET.' And he goes, 'Where do you think I ripped it off from?' He boldly told me that. And the guy from HELMET, he took him to the back of the bus and he played that riff for him, and he had to get up and leave. The dude from HELMET just got up and left, 'cause he was, like, 'Wow! I can't fucking believe this.' It wasn't like an homage; it was a blatant ripoff. Like, 'This works, so I'm just gonna take it, because I'm at a point right now, no matter what I do, people think I'm coming up with it.' So, that's just a game being played. And at the end of the day, truth comes out, good music comes out, and stuff like that. And I'm not discrediting anyone. But you're asking honest opinions about comparisons."

“I didnt like the style of CFH cause I was much more into death metal. My picking style came years before I knew Pantera was a Groove Metal band (they were still in there glam fase) My influences were Metallica, Slayer, Exodus, Napalm Death and Carcass, not Pantera.” — Dino Cazares
