Understanding the Music of Doom

[@LiamTriforce]

The end of this video is severely outdated, and Mick deserved far better. Read Mick Gordon's full statement on the Doom Eternal OST release here: medium.com/@mickgordon/my-full-statement-regarding-doom-eternal-5f98266b27ce I took Marty's words at face value. I apologize for making this case seem so cut and dry in the video. I wish Mick all the best, love his work just as all of you do.

Don't be too hard on yourself Liam, the passion and respect that drives you to make these, and the integrity and bravery that makes you strive to make sure you did right by everyone every time is a kind of love that you have come to channel beautifully ❤

[@RisingJericho]

I didn't know about the Marty post until just now, and honestly I'm surprised so many people bought it at face-value. I'ver been following Mick's career since Killer Instinct; guy's really cool from all the interviews I've ever seen. He takes pride in his work that gets published so I'm surprised there weren't more suspicions when the OST dropped and it wasn't up to par.

[@TonyCassara]

Great video and great update. Maybe a video detailing those disputes is in order? I’m furious how Mick got screwed by a toxic manager who is still being defended by Bethesda.

In the first chord, of the first song, when the synths first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of metal, his fingers blistered by the fires of Hell and practiced to ascension, he chose the path of perpetual rock. In his ravenous playing he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Chords seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the guitar of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his songs named him... the Doom Player. [screeching sounds and heavy metal intensify]

• Scrithen • The only reason I expected Doom Eternal to have a good story was because *Doom 2016 had a really good story.* Not just the lore, but the interplay between Samuel and Olivia, Samuel and the Slayer ("Carefully release the hinges!"), the Hell testaments of the Slayer's previous conquests, even Vega had some time to shine in the penultimate level. Doom 2016 absolutely had a story. It was just really good at decieving you it didn't by having the Slayer not trust anyone and disobey their orders. Everyone remembers getting locked in Samuel's office while he talks to you, right? Eternal has a lot of plot disappointments. It's not even that it needed to add more, it just needed to do anything else with what it had. The 3 Hell Priests are all the same sniveling villain archetype, the Betrayer and King Novik appear in literally one scene each in the present and then never again (very sparingly in the codexes), and not only is the ending of 2016 not given any closure, but Samuel Hayden is mystery-retconned in ways that make him ironically less cool. You have to try REALLY hard to make *Doctor Samuel Hayden* less cool. The Khan Maykr is interesting enough though. The Maykrs' lore is pretty interesting in general.

[@lazerhosen]

@@lunastar2235 Metal is technically a form of Rock music, though it has branched away enough that it's considered its own style and has many sub-genre styles throughout, much like Rock does. A lot of people think "Classic" Rock is a genre, but really it can cover a vast scope of different kinds of Rock from over many decades, and many styles overlap like Album Rock and Psychedelic Rock that started in the late 60s. Bands like "Pink Floyd", "Led Zeppelin", and "Grateful Dead" all play Rock music, though their styles often vary from album to album (which is not unusual for bands with long careers). Technically, Rock gets blurry, as Country is sort of a hybrid of Folk and Rock, and Pop is an offshoot of Rock that has morphed into its own thing, and is basically mostly vocal-heavy, electronic Dicso/House these days (and is essentially a commercially industrial product of Big Media). If you want to hear a band that epitomizes Rock, but defies convention, check out "Sonic Youth" Basically Metal is heavier and harder than Rock, that's why it's called Heavy Metal. Metal is often brutal or even Satanic, but it doesn't have to be, sometimes it's just about fantasy, like Lord of the Rings. Rock can be hard, that's why there's Hard Rock, but there is also Soft Rock. There is Southern Rock, and there is Southern Metal, but the closest thing to "soft" Metal would possibly be Power Metal, which is kind of like the 'Pop' of Metal, lots of ballads and stuff. There is also Ambient Metal/Stoner Metal which are also referred to as Doom (no relation to the game, technically in conveys the mood of the sound), and they all tend to drone and chug, but sometimes will build up to a crescendo, much like Post-Metal. There is also Post-Rock which does a similar thing, basically it rolls before it rocks, with classical song structures and often orchestral instruments. I couldn't recommend a band that epitomizes Metal, but I suppose most Metalheads would point to "Iron Maiden", early "Metallica", or even "Slayer", and probably "Judas Priest" as like the 'first' Metal band I guess, but people argue about that sometimes like it matters a whole lot. Random assortment of example bands just from my immediate memory, can post links if you want: Post-Rock- "Godspeed You Black Emperor!", "Explosions in the Sky", "Do Make Say Think", "Mogwai", "Sigur Ros" Power Metal- "Manowar" (classic power metal), "Dragonforce" (faster, poppy power metal), "3 Inches of Blood" (more savage power metal) Progressive Death Metal- "Opeth" (lots of analogue/classical instrumentation, long-form songs), "Fallujah" (lots of ambience, synths, and female vocalization) Tech Death (Technical Death Metal)- "Vale of Pnath", "Irreversible Mechanism", "The Zenith Passage" (all of these bands hit hard, fast, brutally, and with excellent technical proficiency) Despite what Liam seems to believe and is conveying in this video, there are quite a few Metal and/or Industrial bands out there that have achieved a very similar sound to that found in the latest Doom games, years ago. I can't name any of them off hand, but if you want to hear a band that does it more electronically, check out "Noisia" (also, they did the soundtrack for a recent Devil May Cry game too)

Great video. Being a metalhead who heard this soundtrack when it came out, I was impressed at the type of metal mick chose to go with. The types of riffs Mick wrote for this soundtrack are heavily associated with bands like Meshuggah and Periphery, progressive metal. You'd think that something like Death or Black metal would be what would go into this soundtrack. So even when it came to finally incorporating guitars Mick was actually very original in his decisions.

[@LaDeCR]

So I did a little rough research on the Mick Gordon / DOOM: Eternal OST situation and found something interesting: Bethesda / Id Software pressured Mick to do the OST outside of his original contract for working on DOOM: Eternal's music - www.reddit.com/r/PS4/comments/gdhr8u/id_software_has_posted_an_open_letter_on_rdoom/ "At E3 last year [June 2019], we announced that the OST would be included with the DOOM Eternal Collector’s Edition (CE) version of the game.
