So now that I've said that, I'll make some suggestions. Look for the following bands:
Avenged Sevenfold

FWIW, if you are going to refer to nu metal (which I'm not a fan of anyways) as 'metal light' than you should refer to Avenged Sevenfold as Hot Topic Metal.
Anyways, if you are looking for stuff that you probably won't hear on the radio but isn't too heavy, Tomahawk is a great band. Mike Patton (Faith no More) does the vocals.
On the heavier side, Arch Enemy keeps turning out great albums. So does Napalm Death. Ministry and Machine Head are other great current bands as well. Some bands that broke up years ago but put out good stuff include bands like Flotsam and Jetsam, Carcass, Death, and Sentenced.
