If you are going to mash up genres then at least be semi proficient in those genres and this band does it really well. Mixing Jazz and Metal is by no means new but balancing the sounds and still making a listenable sound with a recognisable theme makes a damn good album. It's groovy and it's heavy and that works for me. |
This was damn good...I needed something like this! I've been trying to satisfy a metal craving but I haven't found anything to my liking. This may be it.
As for influences...I'm going to return to a classic (at least a classic around these parts):
While not as jazz-filled as your post, they are definitely one of the first bands that I heard that took such disparate sounding genres and combined them into something very interesting.

I don't think I'll touch this one, but that was freaking crazy.
