Zu is really good, really nice metal/jazz fusion without being as crazy as Shining.

Yeah, you really should listen to ZU! A great Avant-Garde band, but very underrated.

^Yeah that Wildhoney album really is something special. I saw Tiamat twice on the tour supporting that album ( and once on the Clouds tour too). Tiamat were at the top of their game in those years. Personally I wouldn�t label Wildhoney avant garde though. It�s kind of a doom/ death metal album with lots of progressive ideas to my ears.
 
I know it�s probably getting trivial but I will recommend 666 International by D�dheimsgard again: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/d�dheimsgard--666-international.aspx. Now that�s a pretty avant garde black metal album for you there.

Seconded on "Into the Pandemonium".  It's a landmark avant-garde metal album.

Another quick recommendation: Tiamat's "Wildhoney".

Giant Squid was a good recommendation, whoever made that one.

I will back up the motW claims.  IMO, the best avant-garde band ever, and much better than Toby's latest project, Kayo Dot.

For some reason, avant-garde tendencies are found in a lot of black metal bands.  Negura Bunget, Arcturus, Whirling, etc.

Also try some folk-metal acts like Agalloch and Senmuth.  They have their avant-garde tendencies.

There music is fantastic, but them vocals!  You REALLY have to be in the mood Pinch.
There were alot of folks that would request these songs on my fave Prog Internet station and
everyone would laugh on the chat-board and do their best oooooooOOOOOHHH EEEEEE
EEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHOOOOOooooooohhhhh!!!! LOL
And then i'd quietly write:
"atrox is short for atroxious" Tongue  They sound really tamer now without the Female vocalist.
:atroxbang:<---"Atrox" Smilie from station!

EBONYLAKE : The music proposed is an original mixture of technical black-metal and avant-garde classical (with influences drawn from great contemporary classical composers like Penderecki or Prokofiev, as well as horror movie soundtracks).
