try singing through your guitar rig.

If you don't care too much about the health of your pickups, magnets generally make weird sounds.

John Reis also did that on RFTC's Killy Kill from Circa Now. Whatcha wanna do is turn your Marshall up REALLY FUCKING LOUD, and use a guitar with single coil pickups (A Les Paul with P-90's is ideal, though a Fender will do in a pinch.) and put your guitar up really close to the amplifier, and have your pickups somewhere near the power transformer. Voila! However doing this for very long will seriously put a strain on your power tubes, so don't do it for like, two hours or anything.I thought I remembered reading that it was EMG pickups held up to the power transformer.Has anyone mentioned a good old fashioned slinky for far out space laser noises yet?

I've been borrowing a Moog Ring Modulator from a friend. For some reason if you use a Small Clone turned up all the way behind it you can make it sound like African drums from outer space, without even playing. But it helps if you tap on the strings, particularly near the pickups.
