Yes it can be a bit dissonant.
The combined notes alphabetically are Bb C D Eb F G (Bb Major scale without A)
so there are lots of second intervals if voiced poorly.
A few ways to vary.....spread the chords out, arpeggate, use effects.
After the initial melody on Satch's Cool #9, he whacks this Cm11 combo pretty hard.

Thanks Steve, I'll have to play with it a bit, and have a listen to Cool #9 to hear it 'live'.

Scott - you are currently driving a Maserati, while I am continuing to pedal uphill on a tricycle lol! I will have to sit and digest this to see if I can get it thru my numbskull.

Meh, just mess with it for a bit and if you aren't ready for it, move on to something else. It will make perfect sense a bit later on. Thanks for the kind words, Rand! But I bet you are a lot better than you think you are, and without a doubt, do not compare your playing to anybody else's. It doesn't help.

Mike Stern said at a clinic once that you're allowed to play any note you want, wherever and however you want. I like Mike.
