Just been listening to Flobots, think Rage Against The Machine but with violins with just as much rock and attitude to them.

[Vieuphoria]

I quite liked Flobots. What happened to them?

[jump]

They're still around, saw them last year and they released an album a few months ago.

No, no Sepultura are a Metal band through and through. I think as they progressed in their career they threw some Brazilian folk music into their mix but they were never a Rap band. Soulfly, Max Cavalera's other band, were more 'groove' orientated band but I'm not sure they were a full-on Rap Metal band like Limp Bizkit either.

[Dave The Hedgehog]

I only really tend to enjoy Sepultura and Soulfly when they steer away from the groove elements and just play Thrash. I like the experimentation on Roots but to me, if Slayer's 'Reign in Blood' didn't exist then 'Beneath the Remains' would be the best Thrash album barre none and that's all Sepultura or Soulfly should ever play... ever. Nothing else, just Beneath the Remains.

Deftones.

But i wouldn't put them in the Rap/metal scene as they've only a handful of songs that have that awful sound. More alternative metal, but should still fit your needs. Still top of the bunch from the 2000 metal era, which shows in their new album which completely destroys, Korn's, Linkin park's and papa roaches new albums.
