Question: Both Dødheimsgard and Avant-garde metal are both examples of what?

This is a list of avant-garde metal artists, regional scenes, and record labels.

Some early examples are the King Crimson releases "Larks' Tongues in Aspic" and "Red" in 1973 and 1974 respectively, and the 1976 Led Zeppelin album "Presence".
