This supposed genre isnt a recoginsed form of metal at all. It also conflicts with many of the other articles on metal genres. This article says things that can be read in varying articles, including Symphonic Metal, Black Metal and Progressive Metal. The bands listed are also a mish mash of other bands from other genres, much like other articles pertaining to metal that have been recently deleted. A search on google returned no coherent results as to why the article should be kept, and in years of working in the metal music scene, i have never heard of this genre outside of Wikipedia. This sounds, much alike Alternative Metal and Tech Metal, to be a made up genre by someone trying to group together, and promote, their favourite bands. ~~ Leyasu Have you ever visited www.avantgarde-metal.com? If you've been a metal fan for years and have never encountered such a term, maybe you need to open your horizon a bit more, or maybe you're simply not a fan of the more avant-garde metal bands. In any case, why are you writing this here?!?! Stick to your guns and let us enjoy our weird music.
