Post Reply - Avant-Garde Metal Appreciation Thread

Look at some of the past pages many of us think so . . .
But listen to Unexpect, Stolen Babies, Diablo Swing Orchestra and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum,
not only a "Carnival" . . . but a damn freakshow! (Mr. Bungle/Fantomas can be too).
. . . Yikes! that Abruptum is pretty scary, its like Doom Metal meets Death Metal/Grindcore with a
little Avant Garde for seasoning!

By the way ProgKidJoe, what Meshuggah albums did you listen to? Not that I'm here to change your
mind or anything, and not that they are Avant Garde (except Catch 33) . . . I seem to be repeating
myself here . . . I seem to be repeating myself here . . . I seem to be repeating myself here . . .

Can SOMEONE please add more "different" named Avant Garde Bands to check out please!
