That'd be Ken Andrews' voice.
If you want something dark and heavy but powerful and honest and filled with guitars and strange chord changes, I recommend every last song Failure ever wrote. Damn, they were excellent.
Ken Andrews also sang and played guitar with a "supergroup" of sorts (read: no one's ever heard of them) called the Replicants. They played covers only. I think a guy from Tool was also in this band:
Dude is awesome.
I met him about 4 years ago at a show in CHGO and went just the wee-est bit fangirl.
[I mean, Failure were a total, SPECTACULAR failure in terms of living up to expectations and were infamous in the crowds I hung with back in what I fondly refer to as The Day. They had such incredible talent, but a penchant for creativity-and-soul-sucking extracurricular activities coupled with lots and lots of bad luck made sure Failure went nowhere. Man!]
Anyway, he tolerated me because I was one of his new bandmate's friends. We chatted here and there about a few people we had in common, and I'm sure I stuck my foot in my mouth more than once.
When he stood up to go, I was totally shocked to see he was a few inches shorter than me. I was so prepared for him to be 6'3" or something.
I stick now to just listening.
