title is what i'm looking for. not looking for anything overtly jazzy like john zorn (though i wouldn't mind jazzy metal recs), more like how full of hell has used horns in a few of their tracks (such as high fells).

Weird ass thrash track that might just fit the bill: Demoniac - Extraviado

This is strictly jazz metal, but they have some sax:

The mood is pretty amazing. I’d recommend finding some streaming with better quality though.

Ihsahn has some sax on his solo albums (e.g. After) but not on every tracks

Same for Rivers Of Nihil, as already suggested, on their latest albums

More balkan inspired than jazz, Trollfest has some sax too

Also for some jazz metal with Zorn-esque sax, I'd suggest Trioscapes :

These are mostly jazz-metal:

Fugu Quintet's ‘Sisyphus’ — doom-jazz

Mr. Bungle — funk/alt metal

Le Scrawl — jazzcore / skagrind, they have a bunch of live videos on YouTube and iirc a few short albums on Bandcamp

Zu: e.g. ‘Carboniferous’ — prog/noise-rock, with plenty of sax

Fredrik Thordendal's Special Defects' ‘Sol Niger Within’ seems to have a sax on ‘Cosmic Vagina Dentata Organ’, ‘Z2-Reticuli’, and ‘Solarization’. Though another release has these credits for sax shifted one track back, for some reason.

Ruins the prog-noise-rock band apparently had a saxophonist on ‘Ruins + 梅津和時’ (with Kazutoki Umezu), and also played with Zorn on some releases, but idk which ones.

Shining (the Norwegian one) — might be the closest to what you want

The Flying Luttenbachers use saxes among other stuff

Mamaleek had a sax on ‘Come and See’ (album release here), but it's not heard much

Maybe this: Ashenspire

Check out Where Owls Know My Name by Rivers of Nihil for some tasteful saxophone use.

Does Clown Core count?

[–] PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 hours ago

Clown core always counts 🤘🤡🤘

If you like a bit of humour in your grindcore, I'd recommend Excrementory Grindfuckers.

They're pretty fun live.

Sear bliss is a pretty awesome black metal band that incorporates trumpets.

Now that I think about it I think avant garde bands might be worth a shot as well. Try Sigh(Japan), igorrr, thy catafalque or imperial triumphant. (Wildly different from album to album so try multiple ones even if one doesn't sound like what you're looking for)

Always down to recommend some Moon Hooch.

More on the core side, check out Shrezzers. Their song Libertad might fit.
