"DOOM" has a ton of metal songs in it!

I've always known this, but in case you haven't seen the video yet, it compares the DOOM soundtrack with existing metal bands such as Metallica, Pantera, and Alice in Chains!

They basically recreated these songs for the game!

John Romero is very influenced in Gothic style, as Doom, Quake, Daikatana have very nice atmosphere.
He have very interesting style, its unique and not repeatable. I love it so much. And sad that he is not part of id Anymore =(.
Daikatana was very impressed me in third episode, some kind of Norway or Dark Ages.
It look very Doom'ish. Well if Romero be a part of id Software, They produce doom3 real sequel to doom.

Interesting... Nobody mentioned rap metal. Rap metal was a major force in the 90's. Rage Against The Machine started the trend. Then bands, such as LB and LP, carried the torch. Rap metal would have worked for Doom.

I heard the Doom soundtrack before I heard the Black Sabbath song. Now when I hear the Sabbath song it sounds "wrong", because it has a few different notes.

I've heard this in Doom somewhere, I swear.

Intro sequence is slower version of the first nazi secret level in Doom 2.

Fell On Black Days

Jesus Christ Pose or Burden in my Hand

Probably the latter

[Kliffington]

Oh there are so many sub-genres... some people trying to get HIM in their own genre as "Love Metal" and I wasn't sure if I should laugh or shake my head

Splitting hairs, thinning blood
Then you have people claiming certain bands to be certain sub-genres, so suddenly Megadeth is a Speed/Thrash/Power/ Metal Band

I recall reading somewhere Adrian and Romero are big metal nuts, so that might explain a lot.

That's awesome! Speaking of metal, I love nu metal (but many folks hate nu metal). Nu metal emerged with bands like KoRn and Mudvayne and these bands were largely criticized during the 90's. But I think that nu metal is original and addictive.

Favorite Soundgarden song? Black Rain.

There are even more songs borrowed. Actually nearly entire Pantera`s Vulgar Display of Power can be heard. Also, somewhere on Doom wiki is a pack of midis, they created for Doom, but never used in final product. There are even groups like Soundgarden, etc...

Soundgarden rocks

In the last game I made for college, the entire soundtrack was Quake II tracks, Megadeth, and Alice in Chains

'id' games, as a developer, has made such a big impact on me in the way I design my own projects.
And actually introduced me to the sound of metal/rock/grunge to begin with
