Everyone’s had their fun, so it’s time to get the real party started with some rock music. Say you’re at a small office party and you’re asked to put on some tunes. I mean, is he saying, “Better DOGSHIT Go Away?” or “Better SUCKMYBALLS Go Away?” “Better FUCKINPISS?” Who knows? But the mystery works better than being in your face about it.

When Sully from Godsmack says, “Better _in’ Go Away!” in their hit song “Whatever,” I believe the vagueness of the edit leaves the power of the profanity in the listener’s hands. No, they allow the viewer to manifest the terror in their own minds. Nothing compares to classics like Halloween or Blair Witch Project because those directors didn’t need to show all the gore and splatter. It’s impossible for me to believe anyone could truly enjoy Limp Bizkit’s “Significant Other” through anything other than a portable CD player with an edited CD your parents bought you from Walmart. Because to the best of my knowledge, those platforms only provide the unedited, profanity-laced versions of Nu-Metal classics, presented the way the artists truly intended. Hell, they aren’t even getting the best of what Nu-Metal had to offer when listening to classics like Godsmack or Coal Chamber on Spotify or iTunes. Whether they say it outright or not, people who claim to enjoy Nu-Metal in 2023 are only saying so because of nostalgia.
