Ya, but genre's like that mixed with contemporary usually get the avant-garde sticker. Diablo Swing Orchestra is closer to Swing Jazz than Avant-Garde but get slapped with that sticker because they use distorted guitars in their Swing Jazz.

So you're telling me that by holding my cat upside down by its tail and recording its screeches for part of a guitar solo is "avant-garde"?! Fuck, I was going for Southern Rock...

It's not animal cruelty if the animal is purring over the food you're simultaneously feeding it!
