Doom music

All of Doom's music was composed by Robert Prince. The new episode added in The Ultimate Doom did not add any new tracks and only used songs from the first three episodes.


 * 1) Exactly which song "At Doom's Gate" is based on has been disputed. Usually suggested are Metallica's "Master of Puppets" and "No Remorse". It is also possible that the song is based on a sequence in "The Family Ghost" by King Diamond (the part can be heard approximately 2:15 into the song). Slayer's "Behind the Crooked Cross" at 1:08 and Blackmayne's "Twilight Of Lear" from their 1985 LP Blackmayne is also possible. The riff, almost verbatim, is also featured in D.R.I.'s "Hooked" from their 1987 LP Crossover and Aria's "Это рок" (English: "This is Doom" or "This is Fate") from their 1985 debut album Мания Величия (English: Megalomania).
 * 2) The Doom IWAD file includes two title screen MUS lumps, d_intro and d_introa.  The latter is used when using OPL MIDI playback (ie. on an Adlib or Soundblaster card).
