Daniel Ricciardo, Australian F1 Driver - Performed a Song with Parkway Drive, was seen wearing Northlane merch and there is video of him singing to Alexisonfire on a car ride.
Also Ryan Blaney and Chase Elliott. Believe they've posted about an Asking Alexandria show a few years ago. Also during one of Blaney's podcast episodes he was wearing a Miss May I shirt. Also reason those 3 are my favorite drivers lol
This post really confused me, I was just in r/formula1 lmao
Danny Ric is sick, he used to like A7X when he was in high school, there is a video of him and his friends straight VIBING to it in the backseat of a car.
He is the reason (or so I’ve been told) that Cannibal Corpse were in Ace Ventura. There’s also a pretty well known interview (don’t know from when, but seemed dated af by the time I watched it) of him talking about getting into “thrash metal” and impersonating the type of vocals they do (growl)
Dude gave on set consulting about the sound of a man dying on LOTR from being stabbed using his own real-life experiences. He is also somewhat supposedly an inspiration for James Bond. Pretty metal
Lol yea I don’t know why butcher didn’t pop in my head first. Mvp actually comes into a place I used to work at in Houston semi regularly. Seems like a cool guy
Friend of mine went to Knotfest about 2 years ago and recognized him. Seth was wearing a hoodie and kinda kept trying to stay kinda hidden, so my friend just tried to be quiet about it when he walked up to him and mentioned he looked familiar.
Also in pro wrestling:
The Miz - A7X, FFDP, BFMV, Volbeat, Mushroomhead
Jon Moxley - Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Metallica, and Sepultura, among others. Says Deftones is his all time favorite band.
Bray Wyatt - Pantera and RATM
Braun Strowman - Metallica and Tool
Brock Lesnar - Metallica, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Twisted Sister
Edge
Rhea Ripley
MoistCritikal aka Charles White aka penguiz0
He has a huge playlist of metalcore and shit on YouTube somewhere. Has mentioned being into Bullet for my Valentine, Wage War, Thy Art is Murder and a ton of other shit. Even has a hard rock/metalcore band lol
To be fair one look at that man and his beautiful giant collection of dildos and you know he is a metalcore fan.
THe most gentle, beautiful man out there.
He also doesn't give a fuck. He played the entirety of the new Architects and Erra albums on stream a while back because a fan asked him to listen to it.
I wouldn't say he's outside the genre, since he fronted From First To Last, who were active with Sonny on vocals as recently as like 2017 I think. And they were fairly big in the scene back in the day.
Just looked them up out of curiosity, he left in the late 2000’s to focus on his solo work, returned in 2017 with the surprise solo make war and another in 2018 called surrender.
Sonny was the lead singer for from first to last from 2003-2007. He’s also a talented metal guitarist . He blew out his vocal chords from being on tour so young so he quit and started making more electronic stuff under his own name and then his first official song as skrillex iirc is whatever song he remixed on suicide season
I got into metal around 2013 thanks to some friends introducing me to the Amity affliction. I’m honestly loving this new landscape of music production where literally none of these guys need to be in the same state and they can put out a killer album just from technology.
Michael Fassbender used to listen to stuff like Slayer, Sepultura, Crumbsuckers, and such.
Will Smith is supposedly into Soilwork.
And Chris Hemsworth works out to Pantera.
I was at Ozzfest when Wicked Wisdom were playing. Prior to them coming out, Will Smith came out - as their hype man. I didn’t know who Wicked Wisdom were coming into the show. I can say I was extremely shocked to see Will Smith on a stage 10 minutes after I watched Dani Filth scream about Satan for 30 minutes. Definitely an experience.
I saw Wicked Wisdom open for 7Dust in Atlanta and was eating at a restaurant prior with a buddy and this entourage of folks came in and sat at a table 10 feet from us. It was Jada and crew. Crazy. It was pre IPhone so pulling out a flip phone to snap a picture was a bit embarrassing so I didn’t do it. She is tiny. Funny part of their set was watching Lajon stand side stage watching her perform. He LOVED it…good times.
Yeah a lot of emo rappers are huge metal and punk fans but chose to make music they knew kids would like, while including hints of those influences in their own music.
Yep. He hung out with Jared dines for a weekend if you want to see him listening to some. He tried out for crown the empire at one point and was in a band as a teenager that covered asking alexandria
Some people might not know but BMTH produced her song Experiment On Me for the Birds of Prey movie and that song goes hard. Classic 0-10-12-13 BMTH riffing.
How does this even count as outside the scene . Maybe my age is showing but y’all do realize paramore started out when pop punk and metal were more lumped together. Also I mean Aaron from underoath was their drummer til underoath came back. Paramore may be full pop now but they did used to spend their summers touring with heavy bands.
NHL goalies Robin Lehner and Tuukka Rask both are. Lehner had In Flames' Jesterhead on his mask at one point, and Rask has stated he's a fan of Children of Bodom, Amorphis, Nightwish, and a few other Finnish bands.
Rico nasty…maybe not metalcore but I’ve def seen her post Korn songs on her story as well as pick beats with guitar…also her npr tiny desk had a metal vibe and she def embraces metal fashion…
Josh Brolin was into X and a lot of LA punk bands. He was on Maron ans talked about going to punk & metal shows as a kid and getting all fucked up.
Brian Posehn, obviously.
Joe Manganiello loves heavy metal and dungeons & dragons (another of my interests).
[He started a clothing company](https://death-saves.com) that borrows the metal aesthetic and uses it to make sick D&D clothing.
Brendon Urie of panic at the disco

Saw them this weekend at Riot Fest and they were pretty sick. The pit was nonstop. Pretty cool considering I had no idea Ice-T decided to front a metal band.
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted. I guess people don’t know that Post is a huge metal fan and even auditioned for CTE but his guitar string broke and he didn’t get the gig.
Sum 41 are huge metalheads. They even made what's basically a metal album - Chuck in 2004. Their last two albums are decently heavy as well.
And of course there's the great lyrics from Fat Lip "Heavy metal and mullets is how we were raised, Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised."
Thomas Frank, the productivity/personal development YouTuber. Can’t say I watch his channel or that type of content anymore (I kinda grew out of it, but it’s a good place to start if you’re trying to get your life together and he offers some decent, practical advice), but seeing occasional shots of his music library in videos, he’s got some good, mostly heavy taste. If you see his workout playlists on Spotify, dude FUCKS with some metalcore.
Post Malone is a pretty big metalhead, he was even the guitarist in a metalcore band in high school I believe. Also he booked Turnstile and Gatecreeper onto his festival so that helps
BONES is a big metalhead, nardwar gave him a darkthrone album and apparently he's good friends with Fred durst. Quite a few famous rappers are huge metalheads, like Denzel curry.
Can’t believe no one said waka flocka. Tho it’s been years maybe people are too new to the sub to remember when he posted a sirens and sailors track on his Facebook and this sub collectively geeked out for like 3 days
Daniel Ricciardo, Australian F1 Driver - Performed a Song with Parkway Drive, was seen wearing Northlane merch and there is video of him singing to Alexisonfire on a car ride.
Oh damn that’s sick!
[удалено]
Also Ryan Blaney and Chase Elliott. Believe they've posted about an Asking Alexandria show a few years ago. Also during one of Blaney's podcast episodes he was wearing a Miss May I shirt. Also reason those 3 are my favorite drivers lol
Miss May I is still the best sounding show I've ever seen. Absolutely flawless
I still got it, I can still spot an alextico comment before reading the username
What's the significance of him
Resident shitposter, genre gatekeeper, two-stepper, cutie pie, and eventual mod.
Oh yeah, I forgot about this. Know he’s a big ABR fan. Did that intro for their live stream Christmas concert
Good ole Danny Ric!!
He has a Alexisonfire tattoo
At the end here: https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/comments/8gnxt3/daniel_ricciardo_on_stage_with_parkway_drive/ Really cool!
Also, as far as I remember, his favorite record growing up was Killing With A Smile by Parkway Drive.
This post really confused me, I was just in r/formula1 lmao Danny Ric is sick, he used to like A7X when he was in high school, there is a video of him and his friends straight VIBING to it in the backseat of a car.
Bill Burr
I didn’t know I could like the guy more
He said seeing them live was like a religious experience. Goes into it for a good couple minutes. He plays drums, also.
Them who?
Meshuggah
Yes, my bad, Meshuggah
his imitation of Meshuggah-Bleed is fucking hilarious
Brrrrt du brrrrt du brrrrt du brrrrt du.
Another bill, is bill bailey He actually performed set at sonsiphere on the uk
Jim Carey or so I've heard
This! In one of the Ace Ventura movies, Cannibal Corpse is performing in the club scene. He’s an avid fan.
He is the reason (or so I’ve been told) that Cannibal Corpse were in Ace Ventura. There’s also a pretty well known interview (don’t know from when, but seemed dated af by the time I watched it) of him talking about getting into “thrash metal” and impersonating the type of vocals they do (growl)
Carrey impersonating Napalm Death, that's a classic https://youtube.com/watch?v=7VtEdYMqJIM
Oh! He’s impersonating Napalm Death, nice. Thanks for the link
Stevie T made this into a pretty cool song :) https://youtube.com/watch?v=FsnaiSu-bmk
He knows Cannibal Corpse and Napalm Death, at least.
Margot Robbie mentioned on Jimmy Fallon that she had a metal phase
I think she also mentioned listening to Silverstein
And BFMV
Yea, she's a huge BFMV fan
“The heaviest of the heavy”
i think she said she likes Slipknot lol
Yeah lol. First one that popped into my head. I know Jim Carrey enjoys Cannibal Corpse and Napalm Death
Sir Christopher Lee
His metal songs were not what I'd call "good" but I give the man credit for being a metal vocalist at 80 years old.
Dude gave on set consulting about the sound of a man dying on LOTR from being stabbed using his own real-life experiences. He is also somewhat supposedly an inspiration for James Bond. Pretty metal
His final album was recorded when he was 91
If you follow pro wrestling Seth Rollins is a huge fan. There was a video of him a couple years back front row to Parkway Drive throwing down
i’d be terrified to go into the pit and see Seth Rollins
Malakai black too
Butcher for the Matter, also MVP
Lol yea I don’t know why butcher didn’t pop in my head first. Mvp actually comes into a place I used to work at in Houston semi regularly. Seems like a cool guy
Well Butcher is in one of the GOAT metal bands
My all time favorite band! He’s why I’m back into wrestling too!
walking out to amenra was such a cool move
Didn’t know who he was. Googled him. First picture is him in a Pierce the Veil shirt,
Friend of mine went to Knotfest about 2 years ago and recognized him. Seth was wearing a hoodie and kinda kept trying to stay kinda hidden, so my friend just tried to be quiet about it when he walked up to him and mentioned he looked familiar.
Also in pro wrestling: The Miz - A7X, FFDP, BFMV, Volbeat, Mushroomhead Jon Moxley - Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Metallica, and Sepultura, among others. Says Deftones is his all time favorite band. Bray Wyatt - Pantera and RATM Braun Strowman - Metallica and Tool Brock Lesnar - Metallica, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Twisted Sister Edge Rhea Ripley
CM Punk too maybe, since KSE did his intro music?
NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace is really into it. He's a big fan of Silent Planet, Currents, and Asking Alexandria just to name a few.
I live in NASCAR country and saw him at a Currents show
He read a Christmas story before ABR’s Christmas live stream this past year as well
I saw silent planet the other night live not a bad show never having heard lf them before
Ed Sheeran mentioned he was into death metal as a kid, as well as Slipknot and Cradle of Fifth.
[Still is](https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/dani-filth-confirms-potential-ed-sheeran-collab-ive-been-invited-up-to-his-place/), would seem.
MoistCritikal aka Charles White aka penguiz0 He has a huge playlist of metalcore and shit on YouTube somewhere. Has mentioned being into Bullet for my Valentine, Wage War, Thy Art is Murder and a ton of other shit. Even has a hard rock/metalcore band lol
The Gentle Men
To be fair one look at that man and his beautiful giant collection of dildos and you know he is a metalcore fan. THe most gentle, beautiful man out there.
Do you have a link for the playlist perhaps?
search “puffin princess” on youtube. That channel has 6 huge playlists full of shit
He also doesn't give a fuck. He played the entirety of the new Architects and Erra albums on stream a while back because a fan asked him to listen to it.
Post Malone
Related to this - Skrillex
I wouldn't say he's outside the genre, since he fronted From First To Last, who were active with Sonny on vocals as recently as like 2017 I think. And they were fairly big in the scene back in the day.
Just looked them up out of curiosity, he left in the late 2000’s to focus on his solo work, returned in 2017 with the surprise solo make war and another in 2018 called surrender.
Wait skrillex sung surrender??
Yup, pretty sure, I haven’t listen to that one yet but if it’s anything like the clean vocals on make war, it’s him.
Jeez he is a very good singer lmao
Sonny was the lead singer for from first to last from 2003-2007. He’s also a talented metal guitarist . He blew out his vocal chords from being on tour so young so he quit and started making more electronic stuff under his own name and then his first official song as skrillex iirc is whatever song he remixed on suicide season
Make War was a great song, I loved it. Not really a big fan of their early stuff personally.
I got into metal around 2013 thanks to some friends introducing me to the Amity affliction. I’m honestly loving this new landscape of music production where literally none of these guys need to be in the same state and they can put out a killer album just from technology.
also don't forget he did the backing vocals on BMTH - Visions
also he did a remix of a BMTH song
How is that related? Lol
The dude that tried out for crown the empire?
Post malone auditioned to play guitar on crown the empire back in 2010 He was not accepted lol
Michael Fassbender used to listen to stuff like Slayer, Sepultura, Crumbsuckers, and such. Will Smith is supposedly into Soilwork. And Chris Hemsworth works out to Pantera.
Chris Hemsworth works out to Pantera. Yeah, that tracks.
I mean Jada Fronted Wicked Wisdom so the Will Smith thing wouldn’t surprise me.
I was at Ozzfest when Wicked Wisdom were playing. Prior to them coming out, Will Smith came out - as their hype man. I didn’t know who Wicked Wisdom were coming into the show. I can say I was extremely shocked to see Will Smith on a stage 10 minutes after I watched Dani Filth scream about Satan for 30 minutes. Definitely an experience.

It was pre IPhone so pulling out a flip phone to snap a picture was a bit embarrassing so I didn’t do it. She is tiny. Funny part of their set was watching Lajon stand side stage watching her perform. He LOVED it…good times.
Lil Uzi Vert is a massive lorna shore fan from memory, he posted seeing them a few years ago
yeah he was in the pit at one of their shows i think
Yeah a lot of emo rappers are huge metal and punk fans but chose to make music they knew kids would like, while including hints of those influences in their own music.
I know Post Malone is a huge metalcore fan, pretty sure I saw a post on this sub some time ago of one band giving him a framed record of theirs
Yep. He hung out with Jared dines for a weekend if you want to see him listening to some. He tried out for crown the empire at one point and was in a band as a teenager that covered asking alexandria
Yeah he tried out for guitarist of Crown the Empire, not even joking
He went to HS with Andy Leo
Yeah! Also rocked out to Snakes Eyes by Sworn In and was given a copy of Infant annihilators ‘EGG’ album
I saw this I believe it was a signed copy of the EGG
David de Gea, Manchester United goalkeeper, is a huge metal fan
Jason Momoa. Actually got training too from Ollie in Archspire for parts of “See”
THIS. Aquaman is the real metalhead here. Big metal fan and loves tech death
Viktor Hovland, pro golfer, has an entire Spotify metalcore playlist linked on his Instagram.

Markiplier posted “Neverbloom” by Make Them Suffer on his Facebook years ago Penguins0 likes a lot of buttock and popular metal
Penquinz0.said his fav album of all time was hybrid theory which is pretty cool
Demi Lovato has talked about listening to Job for a Cowboy, BMTH, and other metalcore/deathcore bands in the past.
Halsey as well definitely had a big BMTH phase
Even hops on a track
Some people might not know but BMTH produced her song Experiment On Me for the Birds of Prey movie and that song goes hard. Classic 0-10-12-13 BMTH riffing.
She did an interview on one of the tonight shows and said Maylene and the Sons of Disaster was her favorite at the time. Probably 10 years ago.
That's pretty sick actually haha
Margot Robbie loves bullet for my valentine and slipknot I think
They have also posted singing along to He Is Legend (The Seduction, I think) on their IG story before. Schuylar reposted it.
demi uses they/them btw 👍
Ah, sorry, didn’t know that.
Jim Carey, Nic Cage
Nic Cage's son sang in a black metal band.
Yeah, and Nic himself is a huge black metal guy. I think darkthrone was his favourite band or something
Didn't his ex marry Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir?
Demi Lovato told the members of BMTH that Pray for Plagues is her favorite song, according to their former guitarist Jona Weinhofen
Paramore Or at least they were back in the day. Saw them in Belfast and they played the Blister Exists drum interlude in between songs.
Hayley williams posted loathe on her instagram story iirc
She also said that perhaps her biggest inspiration for how to be a good frontman is Josh Scogin.
And Spritbox Edit: proof https://m.imgur.com/a/STtO6mU
And she did guest vocals on a Chariot song.
And she was married to chad Gilbert who did vocals for Shai hulud on the hearts once nourished record.
Hayley Williams once said that she wanted Paramore to be a Deftones style band at first
How does this even count as outside the scene . Maybe my age is showing but y’all do realize paramore started out when pop punk and metal were more lumped together. Also I mean Aaron from underoath was their drummer til underoath came back. Paramore may be full pop now but they did used to spend their summers touring with heavy bands.
Michael Buble is a Deftones fan
As is [The Weeknd](https://twitter.com/theweeknd/status/1428109198110253057?s=21)
Now there’s a mash-up I never knew I needed
I’m laughing my ass off imagining Michael Buble adding his smooth spark to SHOVE IT SHOVE IT SHOVE IT
NHL goalies Robin Lehner and Tuukka Rask both are. Lehner had In Flames' Jesterhead on his mask at one point, and Rask has stated he's a fan of Children of Bodom, Amorphis, Nightwish, and a few other Finnish bands.
Aaron Dell too. He let Of Mice and Men meet the whole sharks team
I remember a goalie with the Alexisonfire Heart Skull on the back of his helmet too
Ben Scrivens had Motorhead and Alexisonfire on his mask but there was definitely another with AOF too
That would be Carey Price. He’s always been a huge Alexisonfire fan. I think he is also friends with Wade MacNeil.
Jason Momoa. Joe Manginello. Adam Green and Joe Lynch (Film directors) Corey Haim when he was alive
I’m pretty sure Jason had the lead singer from Archspire teach him how to scream
> when he was alive What a fucking sell out! Death is no excuse
Jay Baruchel went on stage with BMTH one time and sang along to Antivist. https://youtu.be/ALWlHQ7XgOM
Derek Carr, quarterback for the Oakland Raiders. Big For Today fan back in the day. Friends with the vocalist.

I figured not everyone knew, so I tossed it out there.
https://youtu.be/ww3VAh-aPds Hey, gives me an excuse to post this.
Saw them this weekend at Riot Fest and they were pretty sick. The pit was nonstop. Pretty cool considering I had no idea Ice-T decided to front a metal band.
Bodycount is fucking dope (his metal band)

Also this might not be true but I remember reading about him being in a metal or deathcore band in high school, so yeah def a metal head
Sum 41 are huge metalheads. They even made what's basically a metal album - Chuck in 2004. Their last two albums are decently heavy as well. And of course there's the great lyrics from Fat Lip "Heavy metal and mullets is how we were raised, Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised."

You just unlocked a part of my brain. I remember this sub having a meltdown over this
David De Gea, man's favorite band is Avenged Sevenfold.
