in alphabetical order :-

Atilla Csihar (Mayhem/Aborym etc)
Daemon (Limbonic Art/ Zyklon)
Devin Townsend (particularly for Strapping Young Lad)
Ihsahn (if you need me to tell you what band/s you need help :loco:)
Ofu Kahn (Red Harvest)
Sauron (Decapitated)
Secthdaemon (Myrkskog/ Zyklon)
The Berzerker (himself)
Troy Sanders (Mastodon)
 
no sexism intended but on Anthems Of Rebellion, Angela Gossow sounds like she's permanently trying to cough up a furball as opposed to doing vocals.
I think Karolina out of Immemorial is a lot better personally.

Quoting Metal-Archives' Demilich page:

Antti Boman - Vocals/Guitar

Apparently, that's him.
Let me rephrase:

How could you possibly?

-OR-

Why?
