Snot - Get Some (1997)


Nu Metal, Hardcore Punk, Funk Metal

           I grew out of all that rap rock shit after high school, but this is one album I refuse to let go. To put these guys in the same category as Limp Bizkit is incredibly misleading, however if you don't like rap rock then chances are you won't like this album. That being said, when it comes to this genre, Snot really is the cream of the crop, I've always considered them the Sublime of Nu Metal bands. Sadly, the group disbanded in '98 after a tragic car accident resulted in the death of singer Lynn Strait and his boxer Dobbs, who will forever be immortalized on the cover of Snot's only album.  A tribute album entitled Strait Up was put together in 2000 by the rest of the band and some of Lynn's close friends from bands like Slipknot, Soulfly, Hed pe, Incubus, Sevendust, Korn and System of a Down, so if this album just isn't enough there's some good tunes on that one too.
