First off, Altered State - in case there's still any doubt, there is not mant to be any sense to what the 'Piltdown Man' voice says. It's purely screaming, being a sequel to the original which was just Mike screaming into a microphone after he came back from the pub one night (true!). The tape was run at half speed to get that effect, as far as I'm aware.
Secondly, Outcast. I listened carefully to this track on equipment of varying qualities, including an extremely high quality pair of headphones (which will reveal anything if it's there). After a fiddle around with it, boosting and cutting frequencies here and there, I'm fairly sure that it's 'Out demon out' that the voice says. There are a few odd sounds...most turn out to be reverb tails from low level percussion parts (there's an interesting popping type sound, possibly filtered, that creates some odd noises that can sound almost like whispering voices). There's is something that sounds like a very brief outburst of the voice at 01.44 - if it's there at all, then it only says a 1 syllable word. It's more likely that the guitars coming in, maybe accompanied by a slide on the bass, is fooling me here.
