Ohgr - Pore (also the rest of the song)
Skinny Puppy - Terminal (my favourite track from their last
album)
Skinny Puppy - Assimilate (from their first album)
From a discussion board -
It's a combination of FX and the natural timbre of his
voice. He uses any combination of vocoders, delays, ring modulators, reverb,
and distortion on his voice. On some of the newer Skinny Puppy and ohGr songs
his voice is less processed.
His voice is also unique. He strained his voice pretty badly back in the day — a lot of screaming, grunting, growling, wheezing, and barking. He eventually got proper voice training sometime between Last Rights and The Process to save it.

From Wikipedia -
As a child, he was
fascinated with words and would spend time in his basement writing
poetry.[10][12] He would write several pages at a time and then play around
with what he had written. "From that, I developed a keen sense of how
words sound, how they can phonetically sound and be changed. How words
obviously have different meanings and with a slight displacement can take on
almost a surreal meaning".
Used to be a fan around the time of mind the perpetual
intercourse and vivisect but eventually decided you only really need one or two
Puppy albums
A punishing live experience and he certainly was doing
grisly things to his voice
Industrial as a whole is a rich terrain for mouth music I
should think

It’s not what I’d have
thought was sexy music that’s for sure.
Many years ago I went out for a
dinner, my best friend’s girlfriend’s birthday I think – so a whole bunch
of people I didn’t know. I was sat next to this woman who was worked in law or
something business oriented, I can’t remember – nice, interesting, but
seemingly fairly straight, certainly no indication that our worlds overlapped
at all. After about three hours of pleasant conversation, somehow it came up
that our worlds did in fact overlap – and that before she got serious about her
professional career, she’d been a Skinny Puppy obsessive. In fact – reading
between the lines of what she said – she’d been a Skinny Puppy groupie. She
certainly went on and on about Ogre’s charisma and magnetism. But yes it was an
unexpected turn in the conversation – she was going on about taking speed and
dancing to industrial music for eight hours straight in the clubs and following
Skinny puppy on tour.
