I could put Pat Methenys Roots of Coincidence from his 1997 album Imaginary Day in the mix, but its not all metal/jazz fusion, but also contains drum n bass and ambient elements. really good song from an amazing album:D and the rest of the songs on that album is not metal at all.

Posts: 319 Written by Paradox0 on 17.04.2012 at 23:08 You mean Disco Volante, right?  Anyway you're right there are undoubtedly some jazz moments on it. But so much more I wouldn't confine it to Jazz Metal.

Using the bands on this list as a barometer, you should check out or think about adding: Cynic An Endless Sporadic Intronaut Meshuggah Yakuza Aghora Atheist Fredrik Thordendal's Special Defects Psychofagist Zu Ever Forthright Spastic Ink Death Jonas Hellborg Dysrhythmia Behold... The Arctopus Alarum Xtreme Measures Grey Matter To-Mera 7 For 4 Canvas Solaris

Posts: 54 Written by Introspekrieg on 18.04.2012 at 02:02 i could of course add technical metal band to the list, but they just got jazz elements in their music. i dont think they have that fine balance, where the metal n the jazz fuse together... same w prog metal bands like to-mera and aghora. spastic ink, zu, intronaut i dont know. maybe. have to relisten. meshuggah? rest of the list..tx for tips:D

Nice list! I recommend you Akphaezya and Estradasphere, I think they weren't in the comments above. Oh, and it's "Gordian", knot "Gordion".
