Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and Unexpect are both outstanding Avent-Garde Metal bands with an extreme side to them. With similar sound and style, who does it best?

For me, I have to go with Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. While Unexpect has more music out, the songs by SGM stand out more. And when it comes to being Progressive and Avent-Garde, I think Sleepytime Gorilla Museum does it better. If Tom Waits and Devin Townsend had a clone baby, it would be Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.

Same for me. I like SGM more because they're a bit more original, although I really like both bands. They both have outstanding songs. But with SGM having their own-made instruments, there won't be another band that will ever sound even close to them.
And I just love Carla Khilstedts violin playing and singing.

Unexpect!!!
I saw their show last year in Prague and it was absolutely breathtaking.
SGM also plays good and interesting music but I didn't get into it.

SlGM is great, but i just dont get the same feeling as i do from Unexpect, you know the feeling of being fucked in the ear by a giant fish whilst taking hallucinagens so the giant fish looks like a giant elephant, while eating a cello. And i need that in an extreme avant garde band.
