The soundtrack of Doom II consists of music in MUS format composed by Robert Prince. 21 distinct tracks are present. At least some of these are known to have originally been written for Doom. Two of the tracks are re-adapted by Prince from his earlier work on Wolfenstein 3D.

  1. The inspirations for the tracks noted above are substantiated by metadata comments found in the unreleased MIDI tracks released by John Romero, many of which are alternate versions of the MIDI tracks used in Doom.

Trivia

  • "The Dave D. Taylor Blues", which is present thrice in the IWAD, exists in two slightly different versions:
Lump names Size CRC-32
D_DDTBLU 64571 629660ef
D_DDTBL2 and D_DDTBL3 64808 6ab6cf4e
One audible difference between the two is a cymbal crash at the very beginning of the song, absent from D_DDTBLU.
