Re: Free Downloadable Doom Albums
Be sure to check out that excellent dark doom project: NEKHEM. It's quite subdued, but intense and with a touch of obscure esoterism. It's a slowburner, they really give the best of them in the third track, imo.

This EP by Sainte Vermine is really nice; great atmosphere and good ideas:
It's packed with ideas, it's admirable! You think you gonna have to cope with some primordial ugliness, and then it takes you by surprise with a weird twist... I didn't know Sainte Vermine at all... It makes me think of an ethnic version of Rigor Sardonicous.

Killjoy!...No, wait, it's doom after all, you're entitled...

It's you who were expecting new ideas, I just mentioned "ideas", good ones I thought.
correct... but what's the point of ideas in music if they are not new?

Re: Free Downloadable Doom Albums
ideas are enough for me in a musical frame that can be as monotonous and repetitive as FD's.

and the gurgling vocals, well...
Well, I admit the vocals are sometimes a bit cringy, but otherwise I really like this EP. Second track in particular is really enjoyable, IMHO.

Re: Free Downloadable Doom Albums
The vocals are the reason why I'm comparing them to Rigor Sardonicous. It all has a vintage, bedroom smell that brings back a puff of nostalgia.

Haha yes, that's also what I was thinking, the vocals really have this typical Bedroom Doom feel, and to be honest I can see how it could be a huge flaw for some people. I've seen far worse, though.

Re: Free Downloadable Doom Albums
Is it really Doom ? Or is it only slow Experimental Ambient Depressive Black Metal ? I'm not entirely sure, but it's so great and doomy I can't help but share it here:
