I am not surprised by the results of this poll. Metalheads frequently listen to a variety of other styles. I listen to a few bands outside of metal, certainly not very many, and all of them can be fit in the hard rock genre. The non-metal bands I listen to most frequently are Blue Oyster Cult, Misfits, Tool, and Monster Magnet. BOC and Misfits of course were influences on Metallica, among many other metal bands, and since I like some stoner rock, Monster Magnet kind of fits in. I also occasionally dig out some of the old nu-metal bands I listened to early on, stuff like System of a Down, Static-X, Deadlights, and Godsmack. It doesn't happen often though.
