In this episode of Influencers of Metal Podcast, Collin and Tom dive into the unexpected world of metal collaborations—specifically when metal artists step outside their genre. They explore why metal bands often collaborate with non-metal artists and highlight surprising partnerships that worked. Remember when Run D-M-C collaborated with Aerosmith? How about when Ozzy featured on a Post Malone track? Did you know Ed Sheeran worked with not one, but two metal bands in Bring Me The Horizon and Cradle of Filth? Or even the surprise of Megan Thee Stallion getting together with Spiritbox! It’s a weird one, but you’d be surprised how many diamonds are in the rough.

Collin and Tom break down these unexpected collabs, why they happen, and whether metal purists should give them a chance.
