Cause I was born in 1984 in Germany and feel like these bands are completely invisible today. Cheers

Remember that music goes through changes, some last years, some last a short time. What was relevant in the 70's like rock bands such as Zeppelin, Sabbath, Stones and Kiss changed to the 80's where rock bands like Priest, Maiden, Halen and Leppard, and on and on. Music is always going through changes and there are people now that have never heard of the 8 bands I listed and they were the greatest bands on earth during the 70's and 80's.

I've been revisiting alot of "NuMetal" and "Post-Grunge" lately, and I appreciate it more now than I did as a kid.

Your question doesnt make sense. You’re asking us if we knew how relevant these bands were in early 2000s…so why wouldn’t they be invisible now? Also, it’s hard to stay relevant if you’re not pumping out music.

Absolutely. I could have listed bands like System of a Down etc. that seem to not have that much impact in music history as 70's or 80's bands do have. Maybe there is some kind of maturing those bands have to go through but it just feels like those bands are not that 'impactful'.

They were huge when rock went from the biggest genre of music to fourth.

Sure, but they were pumping out music back then. It just felt like there were 3-4 bands out there.

But they were, you just didn't live in it. SOAD was a massive band for a few years. Very unique band that left a huge musical footprint.
Unless you live through an era you can't know what it is like. The biggest era was the Kiss era, in the mid to late 70's, they were world wide massive. Now they are a faint memory.
Try to find documentaries on the different musical eras and you will see what I mean.

Dude, that was 23 years ago.
If that year were a woman, Leonardo DiCaprio would be looking for a reason to dump it.
Let it go.

Papa Roach released a song today, an album last year and in 2020 and has 9.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone. They're still relevant, if not as popular as they were a couple a decades ago.
