I wouldn't call "helter skelter" metal and I'm sure most people wouldn't either. It's barely even proto metal.

I remember "please don't touch" having a lot of different styles on it. Too many, in fact, if that's possible. Lol.

Take your pick out of any of the early Split Enz albums. They have everything: prog, rock, music theatre, jazz, pop, boogie woogie, concert hall, blues, classical etc.

John Zorn's, Naked City, has a lot of things going on stylistically. If Mr.Bungle is being discussed; Zorn too needs to be in the conversation.

Last Autumn's Dream by Jade Warrior - pastoral folk, metal, space, rock 'n' roll, jazz, and a few styles I don't even have words for.  Every song has a different quality yet it is all undeniably Jade Warrior.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

I thought of another one.

Utopia- Adventures in Utopia 

This has everything from semi disco to new wave to prog to hard rock and back again. There's even a Queen like song(because of the vocals harmonies). Great album too.

RDM's Contamination is very enjoyable in that regard.

[Saving this spot for when I've heard every album ever released]

Disco Volante is a good one though. Maybe Unexpect which I still haven't gotten around to listening to.
