Collide is an industrial rock/darkwave band founded in 1992, in Los Angeles, California, USA, that has incorporated elements of trip hop and techno into their sound. The name comes from the collision of musical styles - primarily the ethereal vocals provided by kaRIN and the electronic music provided by Statik. Collide's debut album, Beneath the Skin, was released in 1997, followed by a remix album, Distort, in 1998. Dissatisfied with the music industry, Collide started their own record label, Noiseplus Music, and in 2000, they released their second album, Chasing the Ghost.

Three years later, they released their third studio album, Some Kind of Strange. The following year, the band released another remix album, Vortex, containing remixes by numerous remix artists, including Nine Inch Nails' Charlie Clouser. Joining kaRIN and Statik this time around, and for their first live performances a little later in the year, were Scott Landes (guitar), Rogerio Silva (guitar), Chaz Pease (drums), and Kai Kurosawa (warr guitar/bass).

Collide has recently released a DVD, entitled "Like the Hunted," and has begun working on their next album. kaRIN has also been working with Curve's Dean Garcia on some yet-to-be-released material.
