Mississippi nu-metal outfit Primer 55 brought a southern-fried edge to the late-'90s heavy rock scene, combining down-tuned riffs and rap-influenced vocals on their TVT Records debut 'Introduction to Mayhem.' Though overshadowed by bigger names in the nu-metal explosion, their raw, groove-heavy sound earned them slots alongside Coal Chamber and Sevendust during the genre's commercial peak.
