This is just a question out of boredom.

P.O.D. has been known for combining several different styles in their music through the years, rapcore, reggae, punk, rock, nu metal...etc. In some of their albums, certain influences are stronger than others. In your opinion which album is the most <insert genre here> for each album.

For me:

The Fundamental Elements of Southtown seems the most rapcore to me. All of the interludes and the song styles are pretty much completely rapped.

I think Testify is the most straight rock album. The upbeat songs have a solid quality to them and the slower songs sound more like mainstream ballads than on any of P.O.D.'s other albums.

Ill classify the others once I decide on what they should be.....

STP Rap metal

BROWN predominantly Rapcore with experimental elements of reggea, funk and jazz

F.E.O.S. Nu-metal - (the guitar tunings and overall production were typical Nu-metal of its era and imo was a Nu-metal masterpiece as was Satellite

)

Satellite Nu-metal

S/T hard to call the riffs are quite Nu-metal but was the band's most melodic album

Testify again hard to call mixture of rock, reggae and Nu-metal (sounds like war, lights out and mark my words being distinctly Nu-metal)

WA&SD hard rock mostly
