Needless to say, use lots of BRE and growl. Try playing with pronunciation as well, like cutting off the last consonant of a word and replacing it with a glottal stop or seperating it from the vowel and drawing it out. Also try changing out his vowels and see which are more suitable for rock. Besides that, play around with the DYN and OPE.

Some pronunciation examples: you might want the word "night" to sound how it does in your Metallica example. The default pronunciation for night would be [n aI t], or something similiar, but you might change it to [n V e ?] [t]

Tuning-wise, something like this might be good for the high notes:

[-] [V                                 ] [-] [n V]                                             [-] [e     ]      [t]

That's all general stuff that I use, but I don't have Songman, so I don't know anything specifically for him, sorry.
