You mean for live performances? No. Everyone wears earplugs
though.

If you enjoy intricate, technical music, you might like
The Flying Luttenbachers. They consider themselves "brutal
prog" - ie: "Yes" or "King Crimson" (or especially Magma)
taken to a harsh extreme, but I think of them more as another
type of jazz fusion.

Just to give you an idea - they've played at big jazz fests in
Europe, but they usually tour with hardcore bands, and play
to punk audiences.
