Here's a piece of advice, you're never going to sound like "him", try as you might. Everyone has their own vocal style when it comes to extreme vocals, you may get similar but you're still going to have to just work on your own thing.
I can't help you here though, Dani Filth does stuff that I've never really even tried before. Just experiment with different screams, you might get something hopeful to build from.

I think Dani is a woman. i heard that his techique is called "shower cat". Try to wash a cat in a shower... the sound is the same.
Try not to copy other people. use your brain and create your own style.

so whats the problem with making a show of it when your on your own???
my "typical" vocal-style is different, but I sometimes "sing" along to some cradle-stuff just for fun

The secret is that Dani sings quietly, it´s more a whisper than a vocal style. You´ll also see that you can sing like him when you try it this way. OK, practising could never be wrong.

I try to sing entire cd's of slipknot, but my voice can't handle it that long, it's real difficult

I've heard that about different vocalists and I can get some good sound effects at lower volumes but whenever I was playing with a full band I felt like I had to scream at the top of my lungs to be heard. I havn't worked on my Death Metal vocals for a good bit now but my Black Metal vocals are generally done at higher volumes, sort of like Ihsahn from Wrath of the Tyrant.

I know the problem with live playing, but you have to turn on your self controll and try to stay at your low volume beginning at the soundcheck. When looking at a weird crowd freaking around and still controll yourself is really hard, but when Dani could do it, I think you could do it also. ;-)

To do the BM shreik, you have to get it from the throat. It's not as hard as it sounds. Also u expell much less breath from there in comparison to the guttural death grunt. I find it pretty easy.
It's also rumured Dani inhales instead of exhales, but I don't believe it.

I also don't believe it, you can't form words while inhaling, I've tried thatThe_Harmathroditic_Ferret said:

Well I can actually form the words when I do it, and if you were standing next to me you'd hear it... but it's not loud enough for a crowd of 100 people to hear. Also the mike won't pick it up when I do it, because nothing is going into the mike.

Well Dani has a special voice he sings way higher than most black metal guys and he can sustain his high note.
If you want to build your voice up there are some big sacrifices you have to make seriously I'm not lying to you any singing teacher will tell you things.
-Sing naturally when practicing
-Only use your harsh vocals in band pratice or performance overuse will permanentlly damage your vocal chords and you will never be able to hit a high note then.
-Drink lots of water eat healthy execersise don't smoke and keep liquor to a minimum
Painful but if you want that kind of voice you will do it.
