I keep asking myself if there's anything that you can't doomify, and then I remember that Mick Gordon himself challenged you to doomify Crazy Bus and you delivered. Why am I still surprised at this point?
No way...... No fucking way. All whats missing is a collab with hulshult and a collab with gordon himself.... And i think this would bring about the demonic invasion lost izalith...
Besides the phenomenal music that is absolutely worthy of being in a AAA game, the bits of insight into not just the process of making such awesome music but also the behind-the-scenes interviews we occasionally get with current AAA musicians, composers, directors, etc.. I am not someone who makes music or really has a lot of interest in doing so as of yet but hot damn do I get absorbed with every video you put out with the knowledge and satisfaction of everything.
Building music is a craft, and I am all over that. Knitting, crocheting, gardening, designing, arranging music, editing, building…. My watchlist goes on. ^^ Seeing how things are made just feels very rewarding to me. Even the most minor things are there for a reason, and Geoff explains that very reason so well.
@@GeoffPlaysGuitar This entire track feels a lot more „dramatic“ than Ludwig‘s theme. Ludwig was short and direct, while this feels like a story is told, as if it has chapters! Your research really shows, as well as the collaborative effort. Beautiful.
@@OscarGreenworth I'm sorry, while I agree in energy and nostalgia, Gael is such a fucking masterpiece from beginning to end. One is the culmination of every moment leading to soul of cinder and a call back to the Lord who brought you here. Midir is an epic fight against a canonically near invincible dragon so to that I agree it'd be fantastic industrialized. But Gael's is battling a ravenous slave to the last gods at the collapsing of reality itself and is just so damn phenomenal. Gael would've been a fantastic choice in my eyes
This is what the Abyss watchers felt like when they were burying entire kingdoms. Awesome job dude! This is way better than the Ludwig one in my opinion!
Chills man. Literal chills are what I'm feeling while listening to this. You combined one of my favorite Dark Souls characters/factions with one of my favorite game soundtracks (or a worthy imitation of it). I could even hear some elements from the Ancient Gods dlc in the background. Beautiful, just beautiful!
Mr. Geoff you are an absolute madlad, this was insane. I rate it a full 666 DOOM. The choir?? David Levy?? All of the above??? You only get better. Keep it up dude!
This is so fucking sick, I was expecting a mish-mash of different dark souls themes that would be recognizable but this abyss watchers focus is actually sick. Sister Friede's or Gael's theme would be even more amazing
I'm crying a little. Part way through the final product I suddenly remembered watching my uncle play Legacy of Kain; Soul Reaver. If that series were ever to be resurrected, I can't help but feel it should sound like this.
I find it ironic how often parents went after games as a hobby, and yet some of the most memorable moments in kid's lives are playing games with their parents.
I think that metal waltz would be a beautiful Sub-genre of metal to delve deeper into! Both this and Lidwig are beautiful pieces to listen too and I would love to hear another someday
That intro and that bit before the last chorus made me feel things man... It's one thing to make good music but it's another thing entirely to capture the feel of a series. How should I describe it, a silent cacophony? Imagine if this man covered Slave Knight Gael and Demon of Hatred's themes Also, would love to hear more atmospheric tracks from you as well!
This was an absolutely legendary collab. It's been genuinely amazing to see how far your channel has come since you started these Argent Metal covers, and I know things are only going to get better from here. Thank you for everything, Geoff. Keep the metal coming, until it is done.
This blew my mind. Who knew a Doom x DS3 mash up would be so well put together. Props to you for putting the time to develop this. Looking forward to more music from you!!
Absolutely thrilled you had a chance to work with one of the guys who did Doom's music, that's freakin' awesome. I loved the choir included in the mix, as it really made it feel more Dark Souls-y. I think your right that Dark Souls tends to be more dissonant than harmonic, which might be why I prefer Bloodborne on a personal level. Still, this piece was a blast. Maybe the only negative that comes to mind is it's hard to hear the female vocal from the synth for me. Other than that, it's a jam. Have fun with your original compositions, I'll give 'em a listen if they show up here on youtube!
What about music of Dead Space 2 in the style of doom? When dead space 2's action ramps up it really ramps it up. But holy moly my boy Geoff is going places !
as someone who played ds3 and loved the theme in game, this elevates it even higher great job geoff and david. also try riven of a thousand voices from destiny 2 one day.
This is by far the best one yet. The souls series is one of my favorite series in its visual, audio, and story presentation. This adapts that aesthetic while staying true to the feeling of the games. I always felt the Abyss watchers fight could have used a more aggressive soundtrack, and this fulfills that perfectly. Cannot wait for the originals!
As an avid listener of Demon Souls, Dark Souls and Bloodborne soundtrack, I would like to disagree with the point of Souls series not having memorable soundtrack because quite a few of them do. Just look at Gywn's theme for example, when it came back in Dark Souls 3 the reaction of many gamers instantly recognise the theme. Other examples of memorable soundtrack is Sif, Taurus demon, Gywndolin, Vordt, and many others. But overall the rendition of the new OST was nice additionally Abyss Watchers soundtrack was lacking a bit of oopmh after the build up and you guys delivered. Overall really respectable soundtrack, the but I prefer the dark and dreary theme of the originals. (Note: I love doom soundtrack and killing floor soundtracks but I'm just saying Souls OST has this different kind of feeling to them.)
I feel like the Soulsborne soundtracks are almost equal to the doom soundtracks purely because both game franchises use their songs sparingly by only giving you the best bits during the most adrenaline fuelled part of the gameplay. I don’t know it’s hard to explain fully
I really like the soulsborne soundtracks not because they are the best craziest coolest songs (like doom kinda), bit because every song is so tailored to the environment and adds so much to the boss. The composing team does a really good job with thematic elements, especially with bosses like gwyn, bloodstarved Beast in Bloodborne, and Midir. Also I agree with you that the originals are better in this case.
I think it's unfair too to compare Dark Souls to something like Doom or Star Wars because EVERYBODY and their grandma know those soundtracks. So of course when you hum the music you're going to know. Dark Souls while being a popular series isn't anywhere near the level of popularity Star Wars or Doom is on so of course when you hum some tracks from Dark Souls not many people are going to be like "oh yeah I know that one". If Dark Souls was on that same level then it'd be a different story. Also, not trashing on the music here because it's obviously such a badass track (I love gothic metal like this) but I feel like it doesn't really respect what Dark Souls is. It's supposed to be a dark, slow, and depressing game unlike Doom where it is also dark but gives off a vibe completely opposite of Dark Souls where it tries to make you feel like an overconfident alpha badass who is out to hunt and kill demons. Whereas Dark Souls makes you feel like a lowly undead who is out on a quest that requires careful planning and a certain respect for your enemies to survive as one wrong move will result in you being nothing but a bloody pulp. In Dark Souls the enemies are the alphas not you and the music or lack of it definetly helps with the intimidation. If that all makes sense. Still though Dark Souls with Doom music looks and sounds badass.
The Abyss Watchers still remains my favorite boss in Dark Souls 3. The concept, plus the mournful music makes it just simply fantastic. Now its been Argentized its ascended to true god-tier music.
I love this arrangement. I will add that I think the original was more somber for Game Direction purposes. The Abyss Watchers are the first like Really-Big-Deal boss fight in DS3, and the contrasting sound track is kind of meant to give the player pause. Like 'something is wrong and tragic about these Abyss Watchers here'.
The scratchy ambient sound over the top of the whole songs makes this something I wouldn't repeat play like the Ludwig: The Holy Blade cover you did...
"Of all the wickedness the Lords of Cinder can produce, we will send unto them only you." "Ashen One, RIP AND TEAR" "You cant just SHOOT A HOLE in the center of IRITHYLL"
Somehow, someway, this invoked the feeling of fighting them for the first time without knowing the mechanics of the souls series as in depth as I do now. That feeling of "oh fuck, ah shit, wait what is that, oh nononoNONONONO". Truly a Waltz of the Argent Abyss.
This might be the best one yet. The choir is simply S tier and works surprisingly well with the heavy tone, and Levy's mastering is amazing. Good shit, as always, keep up the great work.
Been here since some of the first "what is xyz sounded like DOOM" videos, and from one music producer to another, Geoff, god damn are you an inspiration on par with the likes of the composers like David, Mick and many others. Thank you for all you do.
To everyone that participated in that, great job.. this sounds so good, really neat sound design, good arrangements and production.. this was awesome.. cheers
You know I will fucking like these remixes. This gave me fucking chills like nothing before, it made me almost cry it was that good. Please dont stop these remixes. I really hope you do this for games like PayDay, Warhammer, maybe more witcher? Keep doing this please.
I have to agree with your take on the lore, you pretty much just fulfill your role in a cycle to stave of the world ending for just another cycle. I think, I didn't wiki deep dive, just read a few item descriptions and beat the games a few times.
This is absolutely amazing. I think if I could listen to this whilst fighting the actual Abyss Watchers, I would end up waiting for all 3 to spawn and then run in and just go absolutely ham with the biggest weapon I could find
Really Awesome!!!!! The Abyss Watchers OST is probably my favourite piece of music of all time. I listen to it many times a day. I thought your version of it was really inspired and refreshing. One thing i thought was missing however was the chimes/bells. The bell toll is one of, if not the most distinctive sounds in the original OST. I Think finding a way to fit the bell sound, or maybe something closer to an anvil hit into your Doom version would have let the abyss watchers speak out more in the music. Really well done!!!!!
My favorite has to be Nameless King or maybe the Twin Princes. Gael is a close runner up and was definitely expecting that to be covered, but the Abyss Watchers' was a pleasant surprise. I love their quiet music that plays for them, it's a sad tale of what happened to them in the "end". Loved this cover though! Keep up the awesome work and nice to see you can get amazing people to Collab with.
Damn it Geoff, I have been on a Dark Souls kick lately to prep for Elden Ring. Where was this last week when I was actually fighting the Abyss watchers. Love it man!
To be honest i didn't expect such a banger from Abyss watchers theme but you proved me so wrong and i am so freaking happy right now. This cover is now my favourite alongside "Ludwig, the Holy Blade" and "Vampire killer". Keep up the awesome work!
*claps* this is amazing. Been watching your videos for a bit now and you just keep improving. Every.single.song. I love your progression and everytime I hear this stuff all I can think of is this type of arrangement NEEDS to be in a movie. It has that blockbuster feel to it. Keep killing it
3:45 an explanation from experience is that Bloodborne is a PS exclusive hence less copies sold, yet a soulsborne game, thus drawing in darksouls only players for the ost.
Super Sick Project. I feel like this stuff is what shows u that there are no limits on what genre/types of music can be combined to create something new. Fking looooove it!
Just when I was having a really really bad day at work, you give my soul something to push forward. Thank you so much. You have no idea how much I needed this. Mfw Dark Souls III is my favorite game ever. And Doom has one of my all time favorite OST's.
Bro... Hands down one of my favorites! I've put thousands of hours into the SoulsBorne series. I loved your Bloodborne one also! You successfully capture the "image" of the SoulsBorne content, while "Demofying" it. I'm ALWAYS excited when you put out new content and I have yet to be disappointed by any of it!
Found your Spotify after listening to a YT livestream of Doom-esque music to listen to. Never occurred to me to find your YT , really happy this fell in my recommendations.
It’s funny. A few days ago I was thinking to myself “If Geoff made an Abyss Watchers cover that would be pretty tits.” And here I am seeing it lol I love this
You all absolutely crushed it. I also find myself listening to the original and this back to back more often than not...like the original is phase one boss fight and this version is the phase two you-done-f'ed-up part of the fight.
Man, the sorrowful, dramatic melody mixes surprisingly well with the argent style, and I love, love, LOVE the use of the (what I assume to be) choir from the original. Amazing.

I keep asking myself if there's anything that you can't doomify, and then I remember that Mick Gordon himself challenged you to doomify Crazy Bus and you delivered. Why am I still surprised at this point?
This guy needs to doomify a song from metal gear rising revengeance
You gotta doomify a Christmas song because it's right around the corner.
What about the elevator music being doomifyed?
YESSSS! When are we doing this again!?
Whenever you want man, this was so fun!
ASAP! 🤘
I can imagine you and Geoffrey being the new DOOM composer duo.
Yes please man
Two Titans meet - as it was written.
GROOVY! Our monks are moshing to this 🤘🤘
Make sure your monks have plenty of water and sunlight! 20 min of outside time a day is what I’ve heard from other monk owners
Can... can we have the monks chants from this?
Can y’all please upload your pure choir audio for the abyss watchers
@@GeoffPlaysGuitar I agree!! I am something close to a monk owner, but it still works!!
@@lucid_lucas4509 Not a bad idea actually
Main conclusions from this video:
-Composing for Doom is addictive
-Destroy all sounds
-I need to buy some tubes
Say goodbye to your wallet
@@GeoffPlaysGuitar wallet is temporary, tubes and composting for doom is eternal
@@dynastyhunter5 this is the way
I absolutely loved the Bloodborne one, looking forward to this!
I hope you liked it! 😄
@@GeoffPlaysGuitar definitely man, you’re a legend for this!
Yo holy shit my pizza guys here.
This goes so hard
No way......
No fucking way. All whats missing is a collab with hulshult and a collab with gordon himself.... And i think this would bring about the demonic invasion lost izalith...

Seeing how things are made just feels very rewarding to me. Even the most minor things are there for a reason, and Geoff explains that very reason so well.
@@GeoffPlaysGuitar This entire track feels a lot more „dramatic“ than Ludwig‘s theme. Ludwig was short and direct, while this feels like a story is told, as if it has chapters! Your research really shows, as well as the collaborative effort. Beautiful.
This is so good. I thought the Ludwig one would never be topped.
This literally makes me feel things I didn’t know music could.
I feel like Ludwig's has more impact to it, this is kinda chill in comparison even for a doom cover
Nah bro the god of war one is the best
The Witcher 3 one is probably my fav
"Welcome to the bonfire, Unkindled One. The Lords have left their thrones, and must be delivered to them. *Rip and tear, until it is done.* "
I was expecting Gael's or the menu theme as a cover, as those're both really good - my personal favorites from DS3 - but this works too!
Soul of Cinder’s over Gael’s any day of the week. Midir’s too.
@@OscarGreenworth I'm sorry, while I agree in energy and nostalgia, Gael is such a fucking masterpiece from beginning to end. One is the culmination of every moment leading to soul of cinder and a call back to the Lord who brought you here.

@@OscarGreenworth I dunno, man - that spicy as fuck major chord in Gael's phase 2 is so good.
Gael, Midir, Pontiff and the Menu are my favorite. Maybe he can do another for DS like he did for Final Fantasy.
@@blueveil3277 I agree! More Dark Souls for the Chosen Undead!
Imagine a mod that changes the entire OST to DOOMsouls music
I'd download
It's happening, IT'S HAPPENING!
thanks for making content, Geoff, love this shit
you're very welcome, and I love it too! 😄🤘
This is what the Abyss watchers felt like when they were burying entire kingdoms. Awesome job dude! This is way better than the Ludwig one in my opinion!
Chills man. Literal chills are what I'm feeling while listening to this.

U werent lying about chills holy fuck lol
I'd love to see either slave knight gale, or darkeater themes done eventually
Same
Dude imagine they move midir's entire phase 1 theme down a few pitches and put in death chants
God tier, and with David himself too! I hope your channel keeps growing man, you put so much hard work into these awesome tracks.
Mr. Geoff you are an absolute madlad, this was insane. I rate it a full 666 DOOM. The choir?? David Levy?? All of the above??? You only get better. Keep it up dude!
This is so fucking sick, I was expecting a mish-mash of different dark souls themes that would be recognizable but this abyss watchers focus is actually sick. Sister Friede's or Gael's theme would be even more amazing
Doom's angry energy and dark souls' tragic sound mix beautifully here! It really sounds like helpless rage against fate
Yay you finally did Ds3!!! After you did bloodborne I knew dark souls would be an absolutely awesome base for a remix like this :)
You have NO idea how happy this made my heart, couldn’t stop smiling the whole time I was listening! It’s SO goddamn good
Holy crap. That was insane, and I now require MORE. BROTHERS, I REQUIRE MORE!
In all seriousness though, this was amazing, you two NAILED it.
GIVE US GAEL
GIVE US GAEL
I need to hear the twin princes remade like this
I'm crying a little. Part way through the final product I suddenly remembered watching my uncle play Legacy of Kain; Soul Reaver. If that series were ever to be resurrected, I can't help but feel it should sound like this.
I find it ironic how often parents went after games as a hobby, and yet some of the most memorable moments in kid's lives are playing games with their parents.
I think that metal waltz would be a beautiful Sub-genre of metal to delve deeper into! Both this and Lidwig are beautiful pieces to listen too and I would love to hear another someday
Orchestral METAL
That intro and that bit before the last chorus made me feel things man...
It's one thing to make good music but it's another thing entirely to capture the feel of a series. How should I describe it, a silent cacophony?
Imagine if this man covered Slave Knight Gael and Demon of Hatred's themes
Also, would love to hear more atmospheric tracks from you as well!

this is a FUCK*NG MASTERPIECE... HOLY SH*T

Gosh darn good cover.
"Of all the wickedness the Lords of Cinder can produce, we will send unto them only you."
"Ashen One, RIP AND TEAR"
"You cant just SHOOT A HOLE in the center of IRITHYLL"

*claps* this is amazing. Been watching your videos for a bit now and you just keep improving. Every.single.song. I love your progression and everytime I hear this stuff all I can think of is this type of arrangement NEEDS to be in a movie. It has that blockbuster feel to it. Keep killing it
115 would sound awesome DOOMified!
Oh, fuck me. Geoff, this is your best work, hope I get to meet you in Valhalla.
Bruh what a body slam of a track, everyone involved deserves so much praise💪💪💪🔥🔥
3:45 an explanation from experience is that Bloodborne is a PS exclusive hence less copies sold, yet a soulsborne game, thus drawing in darksouls only players for the ost.
Super Sick Project. I feel like this stuff is what shows u that there are no limits on what genre/types of music can be combined to create something new. Fking looooove it!
That moment when you're the final boss.
Mick, David, Andrew and Geoffrey in one DOOM game would be like cap's Avangers assamble call.
Just when I was having a really really bad day at work, you give my soul something to push forward. Thank you so much. You have no idea how much I needed this.
Mfw Dark Souls III is my favorite game ever. And Doom has one of my all time favorite OST's.
Bro... Hands down one of my favorites! I've put thousands of hours into the SoulsBorne series. I loved your Bloodborne one also! You successfully capture the "image" of the SoulsBorne content, while "Demofying" it. I'm ALWAYS excited when you put out new content and I have yet to be disappointed by any of it!
Found your Spotify after listening to a YT livestream of Doom-esque music to listen to. Never occurred to me to find your YT , really happy this fell in my recommendations.
This should be its music
Holy shit that lit my bonfire!
Well, that was fun!
It legit brought tears to my eyes. I didn't think anything could scratch this very specific musical itch, but by God, you did it.
The synth just adds so much to this. Love it
It’s funny. A few days ago I was thinking to myself “If Geoff made an Abyss Watchers cover that would be pretty tits.” And here I am seeing it lol I love this
You all absolutely crushed it.
I also find myself listening to the original and this back to back more often than not...like the original is phase one boss fight and this version is the phase two you-done-f'ed-up part of the fight.
This feels like it puts on the atmosphere of you in a losing battle. However, you aren't going down quietly... You may even take the victor with you.

Please do more Dark Souls x Doom tracks, your work is pinnacle tier
My Ashen One decided to drop his souls and went on a mad rampage with chain gun in hand… AND I LOVE IT!
Man, the sorrowful, dramatic melody mixes surprisingly well with the argent style, and I love, love, LOVE the use of the (what I assume to be) choir from the original. Amazing.
Please more music like this! PLEASE!
This song needs a DLC Mod where you encounter a doomed soul boss with this music
