superchargecacodemons800 Posted October 12, 2017 Which music track from Ultimate Doom or Doom II is the worst in your opinion? I haven't seen any bad music for Ultimate Doom or Doom II. Also Final Doom music is not a choice because the worst music track would obviously be Into The Beast's Belly, this time I wanna see which music track from the first two official WAD files is the worst since I can't think of one... 1 Share this post Link to post

mrthejoshmon Posted October 12, 2017 I'd say MAP14 of Doom 2 simply because that hanging note is literally the worst. 5 Share this post Link to post
Teivman Posted October 13, 2017 Doom 2 Map 4. I never really liked it. 4 Share this post Link to post
galileo31dos01 Posted October 13, 2017 I don't think I completely dislike any track, but if I have to pick one, it would be The Demon's Dead, I can't hear it at the same volume like the other tracks because it rip my eardrums. 1 Share this post Link to post

nxGangrel Posted October 13, 2017 Facing The Spider. What bland boss level track. It's just a bland track in general. I also felt Nobody Told Me About id was completely out of place as well, even though it wasn't bad. 4 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted October 13, 2017 I don't really like the music from E2M3. It's fine as intermission music, but after hearing it so many times during an intermission, to hear it throughout an actual map seems a bit jarring. 8 Share this post Link to post
Avoozl Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) I kind of like that track but not so much the dodo dada dodo dada part. The organ part is where it shines imo. 1 Share this post Link to post
Nine Inch Heels Posted October 13, 2017 Doom II - "in the dark". Found in "the chasm" and "the factory". I feel indifferent about both these maps, tbh, but that track irritates me for some reason. 5 Share this post Link to post
Spie812 Posted October 13, 2017 Probably the music for map04. It just really doesn't fit the feel of the game at all. 2 Share this post Link to post
Voros Posted October 13, 2017 The music in E3M8. Facing the Spider IIRC. Worst track in Doom ever. Earrapes Irritates me to the core. What crap. Completely generic guitar riff. It doesn't even try to be interesting. It might as well be a track some 9-year-old thought up in a few seconds just to check the new guitar he/she got. 1 Share this post Link to post

They just kinda slowly lumber along with no real interesting melodies or rhythms or anything (well, to my ears anyway). Not bad as such, just not memorable or unique in any way. Even D_STALKS (map02) is good considering it's straight up gentle, easy-listening Salsa music - unfitting for Doom in every possible way, but still a good piece of music. 7 hours ago, superchargecacodemons799 said: Also Final Doom music is not a choice because the worst music track would obviously be Into The Beast's Belly If you guys actually believe this rubbish I recommend getting your hearing checked ASAP , that riff sets the energy goddamn perfectly for a boss fight and is just badass in general.

Spectre01 Posted October 13, 2017 @Voros Watchout your comments bro. ^ Facing the Spider is a cool, fast and high energy metal track; which is better than a lot of the elevator music present in Doom 2. I've never liked Doom 2's map10 midi. The main guitar melody is rather slow and it keeps on droning on and on. 2 Share this post Link to post
Voros Posted October 13, 2017 Map10 does drone on a lot, but I still think Facing the Spider is the worst offender here. E1M4, E1M9, etc show that you can make a good fast paced track that is also interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) Facing the spider is a little generic, but I don't dislike it. It seems quiet compared to the other tracks.. Or is it just me? I think if it was about twice as long with ever so slightly more variation in the riff the second time around it could really help to improve the track. I guess the idea was that the fight would only take a minute or two so they just stuck a fast paced super short midi in there. I can't call it (or Map10) bad in good faith though, I love playing them both on guitar. Even if they're not ground-breakingly interesting, they're total rippers to sit down and play. 2 Share this post Link to post

Also Into the Dark is kinda lame, but it's so quiet and uneventful that you kinda forget that it's even playing. 2 Share this post Link to post

The bassline for Prison is maximum groove for me, though admittedly the lead would probably be way better as a standard electric guitar than that weird whistle or whatever it is. Totally love the melody and overall feel though. As far as volume levels go, they tend to be all over the place in TNT, some tracks are quiet as a whisper while others seemingly use max-volume notes on a max-volume track the entire time which sucks, but I still like the melodies/rhythm and generally sporadic nature of those two tracks despite them being stupidly blastingly loud. Something about LKaW is so tense yet the random little shreddy guitar solo feels like an awesome release, then it goes back into tension-mode. The unusual and energetic nature of these tracks really appeals to me. 2 Share this post Link to post
Tristan Posted October 13, 2017 Oh don't get me wrong, Prison's a fine piece mostly, it's just the ending that irks me :P It's like whoever wrote it (and I can just tell this was the same person who did LKaW) was like "Hey this prison song's pretty good, but I dunno how to end it. Ah who cares, LOL random notes!" 20 minutes ago, Jayextee said: D_AMPIE is for me the worst, and I judge entire HQ music packs on whether they've actually made the fucker listenable or not. Now you mention it, one of the highlights of Lorcan's TNT music pack for me was LKaW, for this exact reason, heh. 2 Share this post Link to post
Voros Posted October 13, 2017 TBQH, I've grown tired of Into the Belly of the Beast, and instead favour the tracks like map04 and map05 now. 1 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted October 13, 2017 Eris, man, that remix is simply amazing! Really put a fresh spin on an old favorite and was admittedly much less harsh on the ol' earholes. I was disappointed when it ended, that's how I know it was excellent. I'll be checking out more Lorcan remixes, great first impression. 2 Share this post Link to post

Same, except with the aforementioned American Pie: A bit too intense for the map it's on (Lunar Mining Project, one of the better maps IMO -- not saying a lot given TNT.wad as a whole) but I legit fire this up to listen to sometimes. 4 Share this post Link to post
