...instrumental metal albums? I am a huge fan of the Jeff Loomis solo album. I'm not necessarily wanting shred, just metal instrumental stuff (they might go hand in hand though...). But anyways, I'm just looking for something pretty close to that quality and intensity. Weird is good. Help a bro out. I need some new jams.
Can anybody recommend some....

Necrophagist - Epitaph aswell, even though it's not instrumental it might as well be. The vocals just disapear for me when I listen to 'phagist.
Chryst Krispies
Vanilla Gorilla
Not a fan of sleep terror or necrophagist. Its time for someone to do an instrumental djent album.

If you like Loomis' record, than you might like John Petrucci's solo album too and if you listen to Jason Becker, you will know why Loomis sounds like Loomis. 
Also check out John 5's solo records! Those are amazing.
And yeah... Sleep Terror, if you can digest it. They're having a singer now though, what I find to be a mistake.
Mastodon's new masterpiece is also available in an instrumental version.

Marc Rizzo - 'The Ultimate Devotion' is pretty listenable. It's not all metal, but it's all pretty solid.

Big 'ol +1 for the Blotted Science.
Spastic is half-half instrumental/non-instrumental.

I reccomend also:
Gordian Knot
Black Light Syndrome (Terry Bozzio, Tony Levin, Steve Stevens)
Neither of those are totally metal, but are good to hear.

FUCK YES Gordian Knot, that is some soothing stuff (can get a bit boring, but overall I dig it; I've only heard Emergent though)
Also, Liquid Tension Experiment (specifically Volume 2) has some really good stuff interspersed among the requisite endless self-indulgence of the Petrucci/Portnoy/Rudess trifecta :Smug:
