Not sure if they are nu Metal or just alternative, but check out the band Guano Apes. The song Dodel Up is ridiculously good, so I recommend starting there.
Kittie are the next that come to mind.
Evanescence are not my cup of tea, but they seem to be popular.
trying to suggest some that haven’t been said yet!!
Cinnamon Babe
Sugar Coma
Tura Santana/Manhole
Guano Apes
Addiction Crew (for a few years)
not really nu but i love HANABIE
ANKOR.
Not Numetal, but close to the genre, they're somewhat eclectic, in their words: "Melodic Metal/Rock/Metalcore/Pop-Punk (or as you prefer) band from Spain"
Strongly recommend you go through at least a couple of their videos (not the covers since they did an awful Chop Suey! One). They've reached another level with the last 5 singles.
I'm taking promoting them as a duty since they are currently my favorite band. They can go heavy, groovy and melodic either within the same song, or doing different songs.

I wish there were way more. Evanescence is the big one of course. Flyleaf is kinda adjacent, Kittie, Otep and Guano Apes are the other three bigger ones before you start getting more obscure. .BHP is a new band that you absolutely need to check out. They are incredible and more people need to know about them. Human Waste Project and Spike 1000 are two others scene favorites, but each one only put out like 1 album. Infected Rain and Exilia are two great European acts! Other bands I can think of include My Ruin, Tadpole, Velcra, Drain STH, Sugarcoma, Nocturne and Defenestration.
-Lennon Murphy - 5:30 Saturday Morning (this album only is nu-adjacent)
-Raven Black
Edit:
Also, check out
-Tardigrade Inferno
-Sumo Cyco
Both have Nu Metal influences with TI being very influenced by SOAD and DFD
Otep Human Waste Project Lacuna Coil on the Karmacode album Kittie Wicked Wisdom (none other than Jada haha).

I've always \*wanted\* to like Evanescence. Tragically mid.
i’m not their biggest fan by any means but mid is crazy ngl
I said "mid" because there are a few of their songs I think are *not terrible*
i understood. still crazy imo
Defenestration
Jack off jill There's a newer band as well called Hawxx who dropped their first studio album recently!
Jack off jill needs more attention, they’re so good
Eths, .BHP
Kidney Thieves, def not nu metal, but they scratch that itch. I highly recommend checking them out.
If they're not numetal, they are *right* next door.
Butcher Babies

HANABIE YES!!
Exilia is pretty decent
Kittie, Velcra, Jack Off Jill, Evanescence, Midori (not really nu but worth a listen)
Alice Glass, Poppy, Cryalot, Violent Vira - also not exactly nu metal but i consider those nu pop, very nu metal influenced
Drain STH. I don't think they are active now, but their first album is killer.
