Have any Avant-Garde Metal Bands to suggest?

[Surreal]

I've started listening to avant-garde metal lately, and I'd like to expand my collection of good music. Anyone have any bands to recommend?

Not really sure if they'd be considered Avant-Garde, mostly because Avant-Garde is another one of those few genres of metal I know very little about, but Cantata Sangui are pretty good. They have an interesting sound - rather than a bassist/guitarist, they have two bassists.

Yep, they're indeed avant garde :q:

I'm pretty sure Diablo Swing Orchestra is avant-garde metal. "The Butcher's Ballroom" is free if you wanna try them without paying for it.

Serious suggestion, I'd say A Black Rose Burial. I guess the closest thing you can call them is deathcore, but they're so much more...oh so much more....

But they aren't avant garde are they?

Try Textures.

Not sure if they are avant garde per say.

But they're fucking epic.
