* NeoclassicalPunkZydecoRockabilly: This genre brings in ''a lot'' of influences, depending on the band in question. Each band has their own unique style because of it. Here are some examples:
** Music/FaithNoMore has combined metal with just about every other genre, from {{Funk}}, ProgressiveRock, AlternativeRock, HipHop, and even genres like polka, easy listening, gospel, and {{Pop}} music. That's still not listing all of them. Somehow, Mike Patton took it to an [[UpToEleven even bigger extreme]] with his other band, Music/MrBungle. That band did every genre you could possibly imagine, while combined with metal. It was awesome.
** Music/{{Helmet}} infused this genre with GrooveMetal, PostHardcore, and NoiseRock. Their style has even been referred to as "Smart Rock".
** Music/RageAgainstTheMachine drew upon metal, HipHop, and {{Funk}} to create a sound that would be the precursor to the rap rock explosion of the late-'90s. Yet many would agree that no band has done it quite like them. The guitar work by Tom Morello has been known to sound like a completely different instrument due to his innovative playing style.
** Music/{{Tool}} mixed this with art rock and a slew of other genres such as PostHardcore, {{Ambient}}, PostRock, ProgressiveMetal, math rock, and more to create a DarkerAndEdgier version of this genre, gathering massive acclaim in the process.
** Music/AliceInChains featured a weird mixture of this genre, DoomMetal, and {{Grunge}} to become the heaviest band of the latter, capable of rivaling Tool above as the darkest band in alt. metal.
** Music/{{Primus}} is sometimes considered to have invented their own genre. "Thrash-funk meets Creator/DonKnotts" is what they've been called. They must be heard to be believed.
** Music/{{Korn}} is the most bizarre of all, in that they quite literally ''did'' invent their own genre. Their debut album featured elements of GrooveMetal, FunkMetal, {{Grunge}}, HardcorePunk, HipHop, and ProgressiveMetal combined with downtuned guitars, slap-style bass, {{angst}}y lyrics, and the complete absence of solos. This became the template for the "NuMetal" genre, which [[FollowTheLeader numerous other bands copied]].

Changed line(s) 22,23 (click to see context) from:
Depending on the band, alternative metal can either lean more towards alternative (Chevelle, Incubus, Primus, Three Days Grace, most of Seether, etc.), or more towards metal (Sevendust, Alice in Chains, Mudvayne, latter-day Alter Bridge, Godsmack, etc.). Because of this, much like NuMetal, it's better to discuss the "metalness" of alt-metal on a case-by-case basis.
