heroin voice

A voice that many heroin users share. Their voice sounds raspy, hoarse, tired, and emotionless. Their speech pattern is slowed down, and their voice lowers in pitch, and almost falters and breaks mid-word.

Kurt Cobain (of Nirvana), Layne Staley (of Alice in Chains), and Jeff Pinkus (of the Butthole Surfers) all have a heroin voice.
