Stuntman is the fifth album by 't Hof van Commerce. The album was released in 2012 after a remarkable 7-year pause of the band since their last album Ezoa en niet anders in 2005. The tone of the album is seen as less aggressive and more positive, [1] as the main mc's (Serge Buyse and Flip Kowlier) have entered their 30s by the release of the album. Some songs (Iderjin is Goed, Kinders In Bedde) are directly putting the stress on the family life that the band members are currently having.

Contents

The album was generally well received, scoring 7,5/10 on VlaamseRap.be [1] and 3 out of 4 stars on Humo.be. [2]

Nu metal is a subgenre of alternative metal that combines elements of heavy metal music with elements of other music genres such as hip hop, alternative rock, funk, industrial, and grunge. Nu metal bands have drawn elements and influences from a variety of musical styles, including multiple genres of heavy metal. Nu metal rarely features guitar solos or other displays of technical competence; the genre is heavily syncopated and based on guitar riffs. Many nu metal guitarists use seven-string guitars that are down-tuned to feature a heavier sound. DJs are occasionally featured in nu metal to provide instrumentation such as sampling, turntable scratching and electronic backgrounds. Vocal styles in nu metal include singing, rapping, screaming and growling. Nu metal is one of the key genres of the new wave of American heavy metal.
