I'm just looking for some music that uses the voice as more of an instrument. Bonus points if it's in a more unique way that isn't akin to vocal group music.
ITT: Albums that use the voice as more of an instrument
Levi Garcia
Henry Baker
Listen to Electricity is on Our Side
Joseph Barnes
Cocteau Twins?
Easton Thomas
Pic related does it a lot, the last track specially
Ian Torres
all of grindcore
Nolan Richardson
Henry Martinez
Karma - Pharoah Sanders, particularly the first song "The Creator has a Master Plan" (skip to middle-ish if you wanna hear it).
He's got a singer that does this weird wobbly throat singing thing, but it's pretty cool.
Hudson Rodriguez
god damn it this album still hasnt been topped
Julian Morales
Also this
Noah Rivera
Mike Patton - Adult Themes for Voice
youtube.com
Juan Adams
Carter Baker
dolmen music
Levi James
Cameron Rivera
every vocal on this album is gold
Dylan Diaz
crazy how this has not been mentioned yet
Ethan Evans
Cooper Jenkins
youtu.be
Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom (has vocal parts that emulate guitar solos throughout the album)
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (just listen to this guy)
I don't know if this counts
youtube.com
Jonathan Thompson
it's around the 13:40 mark in the first video
Adrian Long
The best example of this that I can think of.
Christopher Collins
Feels
Asher Hall
Jose Thomas
bump
Isaiah Anderson
but the voice in that album literally ruins it.
Juan Fisher
Bump. I just want another album like Sung Tongs
Eli Wright
This is the closest another album has gotten to sounding like Sung Tongs
Samuel Reyes
Julian Watson
>Le Fil is the second album by French singer Camille. The title translates as "The Thread". The album features a 'tone', a low-level drone that is in the background of every song [...] It has been most frequently compared to Björk's Medúlla, for Camille's use of her voice as an instrument in innovative ways.
