Me on my four-CD box set called "Road Rage". Almost 5 hours of me screaming obscenities at other cars, pedestrians, cyclists, bikers, red lights, the city planners, construction workers and small furry animals. With such great sing-a-long tunes like "Die you piece of , die!" or "You've got to be at least a thousand years old, shouldn't you be dead already?" "Whoever timed this light should be beaten to death with it." "If you didn't want to get run over, you shouldn't have been crossing the street." Fun for the whole family.
Make sure to get the Live version. Way more energy that the studio release.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music

Roger Wootten of Comus. Damo Sazuki of Can gets pretty weird on Tago
Mago (Augmn/Peking O). Peking O, I think, is based on Peking Opera,
which includes some weird vocal styles, along with Japanese Kabuki and
Korean P'ansori. There are several traditions of "overtone" singing from
Inuit to Tibetan. All this can be found on Youtube or in various
anthologies. I've gone on and on about the Nonesuch Explorer Series
which likely has all of these (though not all of the series is still in
print).
I am a bass voice, so I've always been
interested in other bass voices. There have been artists who hide it
well like Ariel Pink and David Bowie, but others flaunt it. Of these,
perhaps the most famous is gospel singer J. D. Sumner. He was once the
lowest singer (now passed by 12-octave singing Tim Storms), but his
recordings are older which make his voice sound more haunting than many
of the modern basses who have surpassed him in range.
Demetrio Stratos from AREA but also for his solo albums. The man was in a league of his own. The only one up there in terms of craziness would be Diamanda Galas, the woman who can shatter granite with her vocal chords.

Sheila Chandra has a gorgeous singing voice, but she also does some pretty interesting "percussive" vocal things, such as her "Speaking In Tongues" tunes.

Aw man, beaten to the punch...and my youtube clip isn't really a proper representation of her sheer wildness...I should change it when I get the chance.
I'd have to hit extreme metal levels to find female singers as loony...and they wouldn't be as skillful. I like former Opera IX singer Cadaveria's voice, screaming but clearly feminine, like some unhinged witch. Epic but not really prog though.

Daniel Gildenlow from POS. Listen Used from the perfect element for instance. Raping, high pitched notes and really low notes. He is one of the few vocalists that has a big range of octaves, i dont remember the number.
