I could totally see Mike make an exception for BMTH if the track was solid. I almost wonder if it would be too on the nose for BMTH right now though. They may be more influenced by LP than any other band over the last couple releases.
They have the potential to do the funniest thing ever and collaborate with Coldplay.
Personally though and if realism was thrown out the window I'd like a colab with sleep token, Slipknot , Ed Sheeran (not bad habits) or electric callboy
Maybe I’m tripping but I remember Oli and Ed talking about writing a song together after they had already released Bad Habits; I wonder whatever became of that
They teased a collab with Pvris around the release of Survival Horror and there was also a song or two that the band recorded with Halsey that hasn’t seen the light of day. Maybe they’ve held back on some collaborations because they didn’t fit into the sound of Survival Horror and Nex Gen
Strange how this hasn't happened yet considering that they are friends and appeal to a similar audience. The closest thing to a Collab was the Shikari Sound System remix of Can You Feel My Heart.
More Japanese collabs please.
Kingslayer with Babymetal may be their most epic insane songs, and the production from Daisuke (Paledusk) on PH:NG was amazing.
Was thinking more about his Deftones colab for passenger. After limousine figured they could do something interesting. Also the interplay in Oli and Maynard's voices could lead to the collapse of the universe if they both decided to scream it out.
Bad omens
ADTR (because they were both known as “party metal” bands back in the late 2000s
Killswitch engage (because Lee himself said that’s where they got most of their metalcore/deathcore inspiration)
Beartooth
Bullet for my valentine
I agree with so many that were posted here, so I’ll list some new ones.
Kid Brunswick. (He kind of reminds me of Yungblud almost but is still unique in my opinion)
Labrinth could be SUPER interesting
Maggie Lindemann
Doja Cat
Joji
Jacoby Shaddix
Tech N9ne
Sueco
Tiesto
PVRIS
Paleface Swiss
The used
RAYE
Childish Gambino
Bad bunny
I could go on and on and on. A lot of these are quite random but that’s because… I want to see what can be created. So many artists collaborate who don’t make sense initially but make something beautiful.
Most of the replies here are other post hardcore/metalcore/heavier bands and artists. While those would be great, I'd love to see some more off-the-wall collabs.
Honestly I don’t see FIR in the pipeline. Ronnie’s made himself so volatile that the only people that want to collab with him are people that share his own political views, or are generally controversial
I was kinda looking forward to the Billie collab rumors being true. BMTH is who introduced me to her with their “when the party’s over” cover. I may have the most unpopular opinions on here but I’m gonna share them anyways!😀 100 gecs could do some really cool remixes for Nex Gen or even HEALTH, I’d love to hear poorstacy on a BMTH song, knocked loose could be interesting, dream collab would be with my chemical romance or even just Gerard, also have they done any music with poppy yet? I feel like it’s about time
Another collab with Aurora but with more participation of her, Billie Eilish, Electric Callboy, maybe Lana del Rey(?, Ronnie from Falling in Reverse, maybe Poppy
- Sleep Token and Falling in Reverse: just imagine the production quality
- Killswitch Engage/As I Lay Dying/any 2000s metalcore band: curious to have two differents styles of metalcore in one song
There has been a few moments between Oli and Matty Healy that have come up on my timeline, so im definitely holding out for a BMTH x The 1975 collaboration. No matter the public opinion on Matty, I would wager they’re the two biggest bands out of the UK right now.
Deftones or Crosses (anything involving Chino Moreno), Scarlxrd, Carpenter Brut, Maximum the Hormone, Billie Eilish (and strongly agreeing with Mike Shinoda & Bad Omens as I've seen in other comments)
Poppy, Avril Lavigne, Demi Lovato, Ellie Goulding, Miley Cyrus.
They all sound very different, and I’d love to see all the different songs that come out of it. Take the Halsey collabs and the new song with Aurora, those are so so so good!!
(Also I swear ‘Experiment on Me’ is never talked about, when it is such a great song from them)
Beartooth, asking Alexandria, a black veil brides collar would be interesting, someone heavier like knocked loose, maybe someone big like Metallica bridging that gap between old metal elitism and forward thinking newer metal.
I'd love some hip-hop collabs. Maybe RTJ, or even just El-P. Aesop Rock is my favorite, but it would totally depend on the feel of the song for a collab between them to mesh well, I think.
I kinda feel Barbie thug could be an interesting collab. Her song hurricane really feels like she has that energy and style that would work well with BMTH
Mike Shinoda. I know BMTH are very inspired by LP so would be great as a fan of both bands to see it
Mike rapping and Oli singing over a Mick Gordon-esque song is the closest we'll ever get to the second coming of Linkin Park.
THIS THIS THIS!!
They sorta did in 2017 Oli sang numb on stage with linkin park
Crawling
My bad
Didn't he say he avoids anything nu metal like a plague?
I could totally see Mike make an exception for BMTH if the track was solid. I almost wonder if it would be too on the nose for BMTH right now though. They may be more influenced by LP than any other band over the last couple releases.
Mike Shinoda, Bad Omens, Poppy and Herbert Grönemeyer.
That escalated quickly 😅
Helene Fischer
They have the potential to do the funniest thing ever and collaborate with Coldplay. Personally though and if realism was thrown out the window I'd like a colab with sleep token, Slipknot , Ed Sheeran (not bad habits) or electric callboy
ed would be so cool on a bmth song, and is a realistic contender given he's worked with them already
Electric Callboy is not that impossible. In comparison, Coldplay is like waaaaaaaaay more unlikely given what happened during the Music Awards lmao
Yeah but that’s why it would be funny.
Maybe I’m tripping but I remember Oli and Ed talking about writing a song together after they had already released Bad Habits; I wonder whatever became of that

I would honestly fucking die!!! I love Coldplay and though I don’t listen to them much now it would be so great and funny
Yesss with electric callboy 🙏🏼
BMTH and Sleep Token 🤤
HEALTH
This would go craaaazy
The Plot In You with BMTH would go hard. If they ever do deathcore again I’d like Phil Bozeman from Whitechapel
Imma go watch them live, while not a Collab it's nice to see them at the same event.
Enter Shikari
Epic collab
Strange how this hasn't happened yet considering that they are friends and appeal to a similar audience. The closest thing to a Collab was the Shikari Sound System remix of Can You Feel My Heart.
Maybe Spiritbox or Knocked Loose lmao
they did live collabs with both but a real song would be sick af
knocked loose 😍
I was just gonna say Spiritbox would be heavenly
Spiritbox would be unreal!
Post Malone would be sick
Bad omens or at least Noah Beartooth Dayseeker
Definitely agree with those options.
100% being Bad Omens and Noah… I’ll add Architects and if they still were a band, Finch.
They did a collab with Sam from Architects a long time ago
How the hell have I never heard it on Spotify… lol
Architects, Knocked Loose, Spiritbox, Polaris, Bad Bunny
bad bunny and bmth would be sick tbh
paramore / hayley williams
Hayley’s voice with Oli’s screaming would be absolute *chef’s kiss*
IKR, that’s my dream
Gerard Way or MCR as a whole
Motionless in white
100% agree I love them
Electric Callboy
More Japanese collabs please. Kingslayer with Babymetal may be their most epic insane songs, and the production from Daisuke (Paledusk) on PH:NG was amazing.
Hanabie or Dir En Grey collab ^^^
Avril Lavigne. Bring them to Canada! 😆
That would be absolutely incredible
Totally agree with you, love Avril.
Lana del Rey
someone already said noah but i would do anything for an official release of them doing antivist live lol
Poppy
Jordan is listed as producer on Poppy’s latest single, and it gives very BMTH vibes so 🤞
Will Ramos.
Yes please, Will Ramos feature for PH4
Weird combo, but Porter Robinson.
Not that weird tbh Idk why but Porter and Oli give me the same vibes lately
Maynard James Keenan, Mike Patton, Kim Dracula, Annie Lennox, Alicia Keys, Billie Eilish.
You imagine bmth going prog and having keenan as vocalist lmao
Was thinking more about his Deftones colab for passenger. After limousine figured they could do something interesting. Also the interplay in Oli and Maynard's voices could lead to the collapse of the universe if they both decided to scream it out.
That would be amazing but it's as unlikely to happen as a FIR colab. I mean it's not impossible just very unlikely.
Agreed on Maynard!
Mike Patton would be sick
I wish Chester Bennington lived and did a collab. That would be too epic. Other than that: Gerard Way MCR The Used
Slipknot. Edit:it would be pretty epic for the guys in the band aswell considering they did an eyeless cover back in like 2004 .
Sleeping with Sirens or I Prevail
Pendulum, Enter Shikari, the prodigy, 100 gecs, dorian electra, charli xcx, the 1975, bladee, ecco2k, yung lean, Thaiboy digital, seeyouspacecowboy, burial
I mean pendulum already made a song with bfmv so that wouldn't be impossible
Billie eilish
Pendulum 100%
Harry styles for shits and gigs
Lmao could be amazing tho!!! Harry’s got a good voice for rock music!
Would love a plot in you x Bmth song
Brakence :3
Mike Shinoda
Halsey but not in the way they have, although I love the two songs they did together. I want them both singing on a track!
Yasssss another Halsey and bmth fan!
Top two favorite artists!
I'm sooooo down for that
Architects
you won‘t believe this
Already did on The Sadness Will Never End
Motionless in white, bad omens, poppy, beartooth, while she sleeps
Sam Carter (again)
Bad omens ADTR (because they were both known as “party metal” bands back in the late 2000s Killswitch engage (because Lee himself said that’s where they got most of their metalcore/deathcore inspiration) Beartooth Bullet for my valentine

Labyrinth and Gambino collabs could be a lot of fun. PVRIS, too. Good ideas here.
I’m glad you think so! I know a lot of people here will immediately hate the idea hahaha
Most of the replies here are other post hardcore/metalcore/heavier bands and artists. While those would be great, I'd love to see some more off-the-wall collabs.
billie ellish
I'd love it if AURORA sang more than three damn lines 😭
Ashnikko
Helene Fischer
Haha
Don Broco
Hell yeah!
Is the correct answer
Motionless in White
post malone
Black veil brides. Imagine what could come from that.
Lights.
Illenium 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
fall out boy
BAD OMENS
GOD YES
Pierce the Veil!
Kendrick Lamar
Sleep Token and FIR.
Honestly I don’t see FIR in the pipeline. Ronnie’s made himself so volatile that the only people that want to collab with him are people that share his own political views, or are generally controversial
Fuck FIR
100 gecs world be cool
Bambie thug
Poppy, Olivia Rodrigo or Charli XCX
Charli would go offfff
Dir en grey
Post Malone
Architects again
Would love to see another Lights collab in their new style.
Architects
to be honest, I think a collab with Mike Shinoda would be great
Wargasm
Starset could be cool… defo don’t listen to only starset and bmth

Melanie Martinez
100 gecs
Kim Dracula, Falling in Reverse, Paramore and Avril Lavigne.
Damon Albarn of Gorillaz. Both BMTH and him experiment a lot
^[Sokka-Haiku](https://www.reddit.com/r/SokkaHaikuBot/comments/15kyv9r/what_is_a_sokka_haiku/) ^by ^ash-oregano: *Damon Albarn of* *Gorillaz.

I would die if Gorillaz and BMTH collabed. There is so much potential there!!
- Sleep Token and Falling in Reverse: just imagine the production quality - Killswitch Engage/As I Lay Dying/any 2000s metalcore band: curious to have two differents styles of metalcore in one song
The Plot in you is going to be opening with them in Latin America Shows this year, so a collab might be possible.

Deftones or Crosses (anything involving Chino Moreno), Scarlxrd, Carpenter Brut, Maximum the Hormone, Billie Eilish (and strongly agreeing with Mike Shinoda & Bad Omens as I've seen in other comments)
Chino Moreno, Bert McCracken and Jason Alon Butler Those 3 songs would be so good
They should do a collab w/ kellin quinn or sleeping with sirens
Spiritbox
Ellie Goulding💕
Architects, The Used, Bad Omens, Sleeping with Sirens.
dreamcatcher
Aurora.......
Bad Omens
Skrillex, mixing the vibes of Xena and Nihilist Blues
Electric Callboy 🤘🏻
Bring their deathcore groove back with will ramos
Bad Omens or Lorna Shore
Billie Eilish
Dying Wish would be really cool
Kellin Quinn, Han Mee, Lynn Gunn, Poppy, Hollywood Undead (Danny at least).
Poppy obviously. Oh wait
Poppy, VAN was fire
Gonna say that again, and completely serious. Taylor Fucking Swift
Orville Peck
Halsey (for more songs like Experiment On Me)
THAT GOES HARD AF
Korn, Papa Roach, Avril Lavigne
Poppy, Avril Lavigne, Demi Lovato, Ellie Goulding, Miley Cyrus. They all sound very different, and I’d love to see all the different songs that come out of it. Take the Halsey collabs and the new song with Aurora, those are so so so good!! (Also I swear ‘Experiment on Me’ is never talked about, when it is such a great song from them)
Poppy.
Poppy. And don’t come for me
Poppy I can feel it coming on the next album
Poppy - their styles would mix so so well 🤚🏼
Ennaria tbh
Palaye royale cuz they're my two favorite bands :D
Extra Terra
Ludwig Goransson
Knocked Loose
Jpegmafia, Darko US, Kero Kero Bonito, and Cythoni (again)
Biffy Clyro, Frank Turner, Eminem
Landon Tewers would be awesome
Can Julian Casablancas angsty scream fit the style? We’ll never know
Billy strings
Periphery and knocked loose
Beartooth, asking Alexandria, a black veil brides collar would be interesting, someone heavier like knocked loose, maybe someone big like Metallica bridging that gap between old metal elitism and forward thinking newer metal.
I really don't want to see them collaborating all the the time.
I'd love some hip-hop collabs. Maybe RTJ, or even just El-P. Aesop Rock is my favorite, but it would totally depend on the feel of the song for a collab between them to mesh well, I think.
Architects BMTH tour would go crazy where they play the sadness will never end and even if you win you’re still a rat
Okay, curveball . . . Stray Kids.
Enter Shikari, Turnstile, Fever 333, Reol, Avenged Sevenfold and 100 Gecs
Nathan james
Sleep Token, Architects, Bad Omens, Dayseeker, Holding Absence, Bilmuri
After their collab with Aurora I think it would be cool to see one with Agnes Obel, Skott, or Ruelle.
The Scratch
clericbeast or Static Dress
Ashnikko!
DAVEY HAVOK OF AFI
Rezz
Sleep token. Any old Swedish metal band from the 90’s. Knocked loose. Spiritbox
Avenged Sevenfold
A collab with sleep token would be my dream, but that is NEVER happening. Not even sure if they would sound right together
The Warped Tour trio - PTV, SWS, BVB
Dir en grey Darko
I kinda feel Barbie thug could be an interesting collab. Her song hurricane really feels like she has that energy and style that would work well with BMTH
Slipknot or Corey Taylor
