printz Posted June 21, 2012 There has been Blizzard music covered by orchestras, now I'm wondering if there have been bands assembled together to do some Doom music, using instruments similar to those specified in the MUS files. For great justice. 0 Share this post Link to post

NiuHaka Posted June 21, 2012 "The Dark Side of Phobos" is an album I enjoy from time to time. http://doom.ocremix.org/main.html 0 Share this post Link to post
neubejiita Posted June 22, 2012 Doom E1M1 played with real live instruments. Epic sounds. http://www.moddb.com/games/doom/videos/sonic-clang-e1m1#imagebox 0 Share this post Link to post
TimeOfDeath Posted June 22, 2012 Six years ago I did a cover of E1M3 with guitars and drums: TimeOfDeath-2006-Doom-E1M3.mp3 0 Share this post Link to post
printz Posted June 22, 2012 It would be cool to hear Hexen Dungeons music by an orchestra. 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted June 22, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtVTSJLLXm8 this one counts? Good god, this is the most awesome tune i've ever heard... 0 Share this post Link to post
dew Posted June 22, 2012 so doom has nothing impossibly cool like megadeth covering the duke nukem theme? :( 0 Share this post Link to post
Phobus Posted June 22, 2012 That sort of thing would be recursive, given that Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Pantera and various other cool metal/rock bands from back in the day were the inspirations for about half of the tracks anyway :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Coopersville Posted June 23, 2012 Epiclore's Doom medley has always been a solid classic, and their only good song, in my opinion. 0 Share this post Link to post
chungy Posted June 25, 2012 NiuHaka said:"The Dark Side of Phobos" is an album I enjoy from time to time. http://doom.ocremix.org/main.html Eh, I have to say I was very disappointed with that album (and the Doom II one that followed) -- except for the E1M1 and episode-text-intermission (dunno what to call it) tracks, none of them really felt like the musicians understood what the music was for. They just did their own random crap that sounded entirely contrary to Doom and what the original atmosphere was supposed to be. (This tends to be the overwhelming trend with OCRemix anyway... as far as their album projects, I only ever felt that the Mega Man 9 one was good and well suited to the source material; a friend of mine tells me that one of the Kirby ones is good too, but I don't play Kirby so I wouldn't know)Coopersville said:Epiclore's Doom medley has always been a solid classic, and their only good song, in my opinion. Perhaps because the Doom medley is totally unlike anything they normally do? It's just pure straight-up metal. Whereas Epiclore is normally uh... I'm actually not really sure, I don't think it's even any kind of metal, but it's not that bad. 0 Share this post Link to post

NiuHaka Posted June 25, 2012 Mr. Chris said:Dimaension X did the entire Doom 2 soundtrack. http://archive.org/details/the_doom_2_variations I enjoy this one more than the one I pointed to. They are very loyal to the source material. chungy said:Eh, I have to say I was very disappointed with that album (and the Doom II one that followed) -- except for the E1M1 and episode-text-intermission (dunno what to call it) tracks, none of them really felt like the musicians understood what the music was for. They just did their own random crap that sounded entirely contrary to Doom and what the original atmosphere was supposed to be. Well, in my opinion there are a few good ones in there but they are purely for nostalgic reasons and none of the pieces work well within the actual perspective games. They have served me well when creating models and textures for the Doom Ascension project. Personally I prefer things that have a more old school metal vibe because I think that just fits Doom better. Honestly though I don't think there is any really good stuff out there. printz said:Is that really performed by human bands, or by the computer? A few are by people wielding real instruments. Not sure any are done by actual bands. I'm sure all tracks have had computer juice injected into them. 0 Share this post Link to post
DBTutorials Posted June 25, 2012 Doom's soundtrack was almost entirely comprised of songs by real bands haha, that's what happens when you hand Bobby Prince a stack of late 80's/early 90's metal and rock cassette tapes - there's some Pantera, Metallica, Slayer, Alice in Chains, all kinds of stuff - and you can hear the comparisons right here on Doom World -> http://www.doomworld.com/linguica/doomcovers/ 0 Share this post Link to post
