Default Unexpected Collaborations

Sometimes artists cross paths and decide to work together to the surprise of one or both of their audiences. One of the most recognized examples is Metallica and Lou Reed' Lulu which was largely rejected by both fanbases (I think it's a solid album though). I find that unexpected collaborations tend to either be artists awkwardly stacking their styles on top of each other (see Jesu & Sun Kil Moon) or they can be a display of all sides really coming together and pushing their boundaries (such as Actress & London Contemporary Orchestra's Lageos). Both are welcome so long as they're unexpected, but I'm more interested in the latter. What are some of your favourites?

To kick things off, here's Faust with Dalek
