Since The Smashing Pumpkins released their great new album Monuments To An Elegy late last year I’ve been on a huge Pumpkins kick. While on this journey I’ve looked into all the songs that Billy Corgan has been apart of with other bands, whether it’s co-writing, lending his vocals and guitar talents to. Here are a few of the songs that I found interesting that he guested on in someway.

Marilyn Manson- Speed Of Pain:

Tony Iommi- Black Oblivion:

Blindside- Hooray, It’s LA (Guest Guitar):

New Order- Turn My Way:

Glen Campbell- There’s No Me…Without You:

Guest Vocalist: Jonathan Davis of Korn

Korn_Jonathan_Davis_Singing_Rallysong_JDRFI’ve really been enjoying doing this feature. It makes me go back and listen to bands/albums I haven’t listened to in a long time. Not to mention that it’s quite fun to research what other collaborations certain singers have done. Since I did an album rank of Korn yesterday I thought why not do a guest vocalist feature on Jonathan Davis and share the songs that he guested on.

Sepultura- Lookaway (Roots):

Orgy- Revival (Candyass):

Deadsy- Sleepy Hollow (Deadsy):

Limp Bizkit- Nobody Like You (Significant Other):

Some you may have heard and others not so much.

Tony Iommi- Patterns (Iommi)
