Mine: Kick in the Eye - Bauhaus.
It's like a combination of Gothic Rock and Disco [well to me anyway - perhaps no-one else has noticed hehe].
I'm not too fond of Disco, and maybe that was never the band's intention, but that's what i got out of it.
You?

A lot of early 1970s Funkadelic has heavy guitar of close to Hendrix standard, courtesy of Eddie Hazel, and yet it was recognisably funk-based in terms of its groove.
Oh and Limp Bizkit!***
***No, not really.

Linkin Park are rap metal, so most of their work, like Numb/Encore and In The End are excellent examples. Also bands like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Rage Against The Machines are also rap metal and have a great sound.

Why don't you give Metallica's 'S+M' cd a listen. Metallica playing a collection of their finest with the backing of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. The song 'Nothing Else Matters' is particularly stunning. Two genres of music from opposite ends of the spectrum that meld together beautifully :o)

My Own Way by Duran Duran is a contrast between Disco/funk and pop/rock.

Feel Good Inc. - Gorillaz
Maybe it's not the most successful combination ever (it has a distinct rock part and a distinct rap part) but it's an awesome song.

Nick Skitz doing "Just Like Paradise"... a club dance tune sampling David Lee Roth's rock anthem of the same name.

What about Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé doing 'Barcelona'? Rock meets grand opera. I'm not sure I like it but a lot of people think it worked.

ANYTHING by Rage Against the Machine.
It's hard rock mixed with hip-hop/rap lyrics and singing style; rapcore, new age metal
They're kind of hard, their guitar solos are pretty sweet.
Most of their songs contain swearing (Killing in the Name had "F--k you, I won't do what you tell me" 16 times at the end, followed by "Motherf--ker")

Cowboy Troy mixing Country with Rap...who would ever think those two completely different styles would be combined?

an older band called ''Mother's Finest'' combined rock with funky r&b quite nicely......check out some of the tunes off ''Another Mother Further''.
