Default Mr. Bungle? Meshuggah? Avant-Garde Metal!

I know there are plenty of people here that enjoy the stranger side of metal, myself one of them. I'm relatively new to the genre, but I know others here have an extensive knowledge of the subject. I figured one thread would be enough to justify the following we have here, and I urge people that know about it to throw out their favorites.

To me, avant-garde metal encompasses everything I love about metal: its staccato rhythm, instrumental depth and sheer nature of unpredictability. While it's sometimes overlooked for traditional genres which have more of a cult following, there aren't any snobs or stupid genre arguments to go with avant-garde metal. I don't mind getting berated every so often for its sheer absurdity when there's so many great compositions to throw around.

I'd throw out a review for one of my favorite records (Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion) but I'm dead tired now.
