It's a vocoder

to be honest when I heard the song for the first time, than read the lyrics, my first thought was "what lyrics? there are no vocals on that song" had to listen to it again to "find" the vocals

I also think its an vocoder
but by the wy, closer is my absolute favorite song by anathema. never thought that there would be a song who kicks "a dying wish" from his throne.
its one of this everflowing songs, like sigur ros did some too

it's sparky's magic piano

yeah, it's vocoder.
mogwai use it also pretty much on rock action and happy songs.

'auto tune to death a la cher' breaklose mentioned might be interesting to hear on vinnie's vox
