Planet X, Sherinian's solo albums, that sort of sruff ... Not a massive fan of the more extreme ones in Jazz terms, they don't seem to gel for me. I do have The Painter's Pallette, Traced In Air and Animals As Leaders ... Not bad :)

The majority of Jonas Hellborg is not metal at all, though it's awesome stuff.

Gotta choose the masters - Cynic. Though this may be my favorite genre, love all of it.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I guess Meshuggah from the list  (I'd add Counter-World Experience)

I was debating putting Art Metal up there but AFAIK that's his only really "heavy" release.

Where's Death in this poll? Their later stuff is jazzy as hell. especially the Human/Individual Thought Patterns/Symbolic trilogy.

Hell I'd rank ITP as one of my favorite jazz albums ever. Chuck was writing stuff on par with guys like Herbie Hancock in my opinion.

Oh wow, I didn't even include any Ron Jarzombek projects.  Failure on my part.

I must admit that the metal - jazz combination doesn't always work very well for me.
But luckily you didn't add Liquid Tension Experiment, those are really SickTongue

Yakuza and (earlier before they 'sang') Intronaut are the top for me.

Where's Blotted Science? Tongue We need such, uh, heavy post-bop bands in this poll.

I admittedly haven't heard all of them.  I like all the ones I have except for Cynic.

I'll go with Yakuza, just over Zu, Meshuggah, Intronaut, Special Defects, and AAL

All these prog metal bands are noted for incorporating a heavy amount of jazz and/or jazz fusion elements into their distinctive style.  Which one is your favorite?
