Limp Bizkit is one of those I qualify as 'most annoying things I have ever heard' - even when they started approaching a decent song, they would immediately kill it with a break where they just chant the band name over and over again. That's one of my musical rules, good bands don't need to tell me their names in the music. I'd like it enough that I would want to find out for myself.
But typing 'nu-metal' into Google got me a list of bands which included Linkin Park, Disturbed, and several others that I actually liked. But there are few genres where I can't find something I enjoy. Even the heydey of hair metal has a lot of gems, and I remember those bands as the ones on the T-shirts of the people who seemed to devote their childhoods to making mine as miserable as possible (I wasn't able to appreciate ANY hair band until after I got out of high school because of who I associated them with).
