I really like Byron Roberts' (Bal-Sagoth) vocals, he does an amazing job with both black and clean vocals. I usually find black metal vocals pretty annoying (not that I dont like the genre), but not Byrons. Also his clean vocals sound very majestic. Tomi Joutsen from Amorphis also has a great voice and he does a good job with the growls.
Favorite metal vocalists?

I've always been drawn to some of the unique ones like King Diamond, Cirith Ungol, Agent Steel, Vio-lence... stuff like that. I like the power of Jorn and Tom Englund as well as Virgin Steel's, with his kind of Eric Adams rasp on the higher stuff.

Bruce Dickinson (yeah, fuck you The Butt)
Attila (mostly for his work on DMDS. It took me a while to come to terms with and really appreciate this dude's vocals, but now I think his vocals totally work for DMDS.)
Varg Vikernes (nobody does the whole "screaming naked and anguished under the moonlight" thing better than this guy. Seriously.)
James Rivera
Mike Scalzi
David Vincent (perfect combination of intelligibility and aggression. This guy is legendary despite the fact that he turned into some kind of gay leatherboy over the years.)
Dagon (sounds a lot like Abbath, but I like his version of this style a little more and I think it suits the whole concept of Inquisition really well.)
