All the music from the original Doom game is taken (stolen) from great Metal songs. I played it before my metal discovery, but upon listening to it...

Music for Quake II was pretty awesome (because I always listened to Tool while playing).JustinR wrote:Well at least id Software made up for it when they hired Trent Reznor to do the music for Quake.
