Nu metalcore (sometimes referred to as nu metal revival or new nu metal)[1] is the fusion of nu metal and metalcore that began in the 2010s.[2] Some of the notable groups have also taken influence from R&B,[2] pop,[1] post-hardcore,[3] and deathcore.[4] The fusion is characterized by typical metalcore vocals and instrumentation often accompanied by down-tuned guitars, heavy bass, rapping, spoken word, soulful singing, funk samples, or turntablism.[3][5]

History and reception

Demon Hunter and Ill Niño are known as some of the first bands to combine nu metal sounds and qualities with ones heard in metalcore, in albums such as Demon Hunter's 2002 self-titled debut album[6][7] and Ill Niño's 2005 album One Nation Underground. However, the idea of nu metalcore did not catch on until the 2010s, when metalcore and deathcore groups[4] such as Emmure,[8][9][10] Of Mice & Men,[11][12][13] Suicide Silence,[14][15] and Issues,[16][17] all gained moderate popularity for drawing influence from nu metal. Suicide Silence's 2011 album The Black Crown, which features elements of nu metal and deathcore,[14] peaked at number 28 on the Billboard 200.[18][19] In 2014, Issues' self-titled debut album peaked at number 9 on the same chart.[20] The album features elements of metalcore, nu metal, pop and R&B.[21] Of Mice & Men's 2014 album Restoring Force, which features elements of nu metal,[12] peaked at number 4 on the Billboard 200.[22] Bring Me the Horizon, previously known for a much heavier style of music, released their fifth album That's the Spirit, which peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 200, in 2015.[23] The album draws from multiple genres, including nu metal; however, the band completely abandoned their metalcore style.[24][25] According to The Soundboard in 2016, "nu-metalcore has become [...] omnipresent."[26]
