To me, with their constant genre hopping, they're plain old experimental. Pretty much all those bands on the list can be pinned down to the metal end of things, while experimenting with other things. I'm sometimes even hesitant in calling Mr. Bungle's self titled a metal album because of that, but it is on the metal archives after all.
If you can call Mr. Bungle a metal album, Torture Garden is a metal album and a half. Perhaps Painkiller is more true to metal than NC.

Caught you before the edit. Great minds think alike.
