They have recently been named as the third biggest icon in the world by MTV special, just behind Aerosmith and Janet Jackson.

Nine Inch Nails

Nine Inch Nails

The brainchild of instrumentalist, vocalist, producer and all-round creative force Trent Reznor, Nine Inch Nails is one of the figureheads of rock, alternative and metal music. Reznor's musical direction has steered NIN across a number of genres since 1989, producing several albums and EPs, collecting a few awards in the process. Having collaborated with many other artists during this time, such as Marilyn Manson and film director David Lynch, Reznor has also courted controversy and gained a hint of notoriety along the way. Nine Inch Nails still maintain an enviable army of followers, marching loudly away from the light at the end of the tunnel.

Limp Bizkit

Limp Bizkit

Limp Bizkit formed in the mid-1990s in Jacksonville, an assemblage of visionaries brought together by frontman Fred Durst, a former Navy plebe turned tattoo artist who'd been writing raps since he was 14. The collision of sensibilities between Durst, Otto, Borland, bassist Sam Rivers and House of Pain's DJ Lethal formed a synthesis that was entirely of its time, a sonic barrage of crunchy power chords, phat grooves and psycho-delic loops that was without precedent - at least all under the same roof.

Lamb Of God

Lamb Of God

A five-piece metal band from Richmond, USA, Lamb Of God have met with increasing acclaim Stateside for their refusal to be categorised. Influences of black, death and prog metal certainly, but with an intelligent and skilled touch not common to these genres.
