So, because of a Shadowrun game I'm joining, I'm looking for the deepest vocals in metal. Long story short, I'm looking for a song that could believably be belted out at 120 dB by a 600-lbs troll. So far, nothing sounds quite right.
Longer version: I'm looking at playing a troll. Because all characters need something besides combat skills, I'm making my troll a musician, and I decided that vocals would be an interesting choice. Just telling the group that the troll hopped up on synthetic adrenaline is a singer during the day isn't enough, though. Unfortunately, I can't find any singers who sound like a troll. Screamo tends not to be very low in pitch, so I started looking through different metal genres, but I just can't find anything that says "Troll" to me. Nothing really shakes the windows the right way. Ideally, I would find a singer who sounds like a war-horn, carved from a mammoth tusk and calling the souls of the fallen to Valhalla, but apparently that isn't a real thing. I could use a sound editing program to drop everything by an octave, but I'd rather not have to.

That's better. Thanks.

The only things coming to mind are older Bolt Thrower, and maybe "Roots"-era Sepultura (especially "Roots Bloody Roots"), though you'd probably have to drop-tune both.
