![Doom (PS4) E3 2015 Gameplay Footage [COMPLETE]](/img/n.gif)
7:32 for those who dont know. This is Mick Gordon's metal choir (where he hired like 20 something metal vocalists) all shouting "KAR EN TUK" in the Night Sentinels' language, which means RIP AND TEAR
More sounds like "Die ketchup"
It actually does transition into 'Rip and Tear' at the end
The full track version of "Kar en Tuk" he has is sick!
RIP AND TEAR THEIR BONES AND BLOOD !!!!!
I thought it was "God Bless You"
Watching musicians enjoy music is one of my favorite pastimes 😊
Cool little fact, 8:07 this sound is supposed to mimic the "Meathook" attachment in the game by sounding like a chain being pulled or thrown towards an enemy, which is what the function of the attachment is in the game
I love how your face lights up when the chanting starts! Doom Eternal has such an amazing soundtrack, and I am so upset it never got a proper release
the chanting was so sick and v unexpected!
@@emyoung Mick Gordon had all the chanting done by a choir of heavy metal/death metal vocalists, but don't quote me on that.
@@skylerkelsey3684 That is correct, I am pretty sure he still has a video of this on his official channel.
It never had a proper release due to Mick Gordon and Bethesda have a falling out
@@WarHoundLACN yeah the whole thing was a mess and it didn't really end well for anyone
The way people freeze up at the chanting always makes me fuckin giddy lol it's honestly just such a perfect reaction
hahaha yesss
Fun fact about that chanting, if you listen closely, the chanting starts OUT going "KAR EN TUK".
However, in the last 3 verses, the words start getting swapped out for their English equivalents, going from "KAR EN TEAR" to "RIP EN TEAR" to finally "RIP AND TEAR" by the final verse.
I literally listen to this on an hour loop while coding for long periods of time and it makes the experience of typing at a computer feel like an adventure through the pits of hell. Doom music is the best
i do the same thing. cheers 😇
Music like this is precisely why you DON'T do your composers dirty. This fits Doom Eternal like a glove just as the OST of DOOM (2016) did. Respect the people that give your game its voice, as it's the least they deserve.
Without the music these games wouldn't be a shadow of what they're now
The way these songs are composed, they're done in bits and pieces. When you're in-game, it will play a random segment of it based on what's going on. Normally, it's, of course, just playing "ambient" music until a fight starts, that's when it really kicks in. The fights are also kinda done in phases, depending on the area. Most big arenas = big battles, which means three phases. Typically, you get the weaker enemies and the build-up sections of the song, and by the time you get the 3rd phase the big drop hits & the biggest demons come out to kick your ass.
For some other big battles, they'll start *right* at the drop kinda like how this song does.
This song was produced by Mick himself. But, as others said, a lot weren't. So, with songs like Super Gore Nest, what you get is the game studio kinda frankenstein-ing the in-game audio files together. And for SGN in particular, it's a little shoddy & kinda repetitive. Some of the transitions are a little scuffed and don't quite meld together as well.
Now, on the other hand, you have the fan mixes. Which is the same thing, most are kinda scuffed, but some are great. As someone already mentioned, Koma was probably the best at this. To the point where Mick would sometimes comment on his videos lol. Koma did eventually delete his channel, but most re-uploads still exist.
*tldr; I recommend the Koma version of Super Gore Nest over the OST version.*
(Cultist Base is fine, though. Mick mixed it.)
Edit: here's the link btw, if you need it

Gladiator is another from Eternal that I think is severely underrated, lots of vocals in there too
thanks for the rec!
@@emyoung Also the DLC in general has some interesting Tracks with vocals like "Immora super heavy combat"
i never noticed, but during the chanting they transition from the demonic language into english, starting with chanting "Kar En Tuk" and then transitioning into english chanting saying "Rip And Tear" very cool!
Oh it’s not ancient Canadian? 😊
They are the same! This is the language spoken in the halls of Trudeaueaurghian Canuckistan!
@@kingkaijugaming2841
It wasnt glass that broke, that was the meathook chain dropping before the chant.
This and Cultist Base are my favorite from Eternal
stoked to hear it!!
Mick gordon sampled his lawnmower for cultist base, and still managed to make it slap
@@envyVIPER I listen to Cultist Base at the gym still to this day
Respect for your huge knowledge about sound design. Your smile is like sunshine.
Hello! Loved the bits where you paused and dove into the more technical elements of the track. Please carry that on!
Also if you like game music with a metal soundtrack, check out music from Hades. "Out of Tartarus" and "The Painful Way" are amazing!
thanks!!
I ADORE supergiant's music work and love those tracks! would love to post some breakdowns of my thoughts sometime:) thanks for watching!
Not sure anyone has mentioned this but the reason the Doom music has so many ups and downs and transitions is because it is designed to be stripped down and escalate depending on the gameplay. When not fighting you don't want those really energetic parts and when you are in the middle of the chaos you don't want the lulls. What's most impressive about that is, for the most part, the player decides when there is action, not the game.
It’s really cool to hear you be so passionate about sound design, I keep learning new things!
You HAVE to do cultist base. It's the best song imo from eternal! Great videos
ty!! cultist base is on my list to do super soon!!
@@emyoungdoom music is a banger
It is the best
@emyoung9083 if you can find Komas Mix I HIGHLY recommend that version, I have a soundcloud link if you'd like that perhaps?? 😊
im not sure what the choir are chanting in this song…but i love to imagine it’s the Demons warning chant to all of hell. Letting every demon know The Slayer is coming. gives me goosebumps lmao
They’re chanting “Kar En Tuk” which is an ancient language in the game. It translates to “Rip and Tear”, They even change over to chanting “Rip and Tear”.
Vega core is one of my favorites from the Doom 2016 soundtrack.
The fact that you just spoke right through the drop was insane. Like it didnt even faze you one bit.
I loved seeing your breakdown of this! This game has got one of my favorite soundtracks of all time. Another game that has a SUPER good high pace soundtrack is ULTRAKILL! "Into the Fire", "Castle Vein", and "The Cyber Grind" are all really good!
This was just as fun watching on youtube as it was live on twitch!!!
thank you!!! :)
Just found your channel tonight and love your breakdowns! Feel free to pause and explain more like you did in the beginning of this one, because listening to the music theory side of these tracks is so informative.
that s the music I'm listening for heavy ass training. The music has a power over your mind. by the way in happy to so you enjoying it
Doom soundtrack is the best gym soundtrack!!
There was a track that Mick Gordon did for Doom (I don't remember if it was 2016 or Eternal) where for vocals, he hired like 20 metalhead singers to scream into their microphones to sound like the screams and wails of the damned in hell for a track. I remember hearing it for the first time years ago and it made every hair on my neck stand up and made me super uncomfortable. It was fucking awesome.
The chants in this one were from the choir they put together
Damnation?
@@OMGtheykilledKenny42 So I just looked it up, no. Much worse. It was the unreleased version of "Kar En Tuk" for Doom Eternal. Roughly 5 minutes in. Fuckin' goosebumps, man. It's awesome.
I dont know if anyone suggested this yet, but you should do a live reaction to the GDC conference Mick does, where he goes over his whole method and theory behind how he did the music for Doom. Its super informative and just wicked to watch. Helped me a lot as well.
thanks for the rec!
i feel like flesh and metal or skullhacker would be really cool tracks for you to react to next, the ear candy bits in them are insane
One of the coolest bits about this song is that in the main riff, one of the notes is actually played behind the nut of the guitar.
The chainsaws are in cultist base and hell walker.the lawn mowers are in the only thing they fear is you and cultist base as synths
hahah ty for this comprehensive guide
Really hope you're gonna give BFG 10000 a shot. Its has such a gnarly opening.
The chanting in these tracks are actually coming from famous vocalists from bands like Ministry and StaticX. c:
Pause plus analysis! I like it.
Sometimes i wonder if mick gordon is a "tool" fan. The stripped-back parts between the intense bits are kinda remeniscent of tool, in the way they consistently surprise you with where they're going, musically.
One thing I would say to try and help you out is the audio on your videos seems about 30% too low compared to other videos I flip through on the same volume level. Had to turn my system volume up to get my DT 990's to produce a loud enough sound for this video (250ohm headphones). Great Critique though. LOVE the doom sound track. its gold. Fits the mood so well.
If you like the chanting the gladiator ost is perfect and one of my favorites
Mick Gordon uses so many crazy things to make music and he's added so many layers that you cann't notice if you remove a layer but they all mix to make this monstrosity. And I love it when your face lights up at every unique bit in doom's soundtrack!
RIP! AND! TEAR! RIP! AND! TEAR!
this series is so good Em
thank you!!! :)
A suggestion for future videos (i've spammed it a lot lol, I know I'm annoying) is the OST for Warhammer 40k: Mechanicus, which combines church music with industrial and electronic to create a truly unique soundtrack. "Children of the Omnissiah" and "Noosphere" are the ones to go to, but the OST as a whole is just phenomenal and unique.
thanks for the recs!!
By the way, if you didn't know the chanting you loved so much actually goes from "Kar en tuk" to "Rip and tear"
"Kar en tuk" means rip and tear in Doom's own language
I missec the industrial sound in shooters. so I was pleasantly blown away by Mick when Doom 2016 dropped.
I usually turn off music in games. The last game soundtrack I really enjoyed was Quake 2, and of course Quake 1 intro. You should definitely give a listen to them if you like the NIN industrial sound.
Totally check out some of the original Doom Tracks - There are a lot of "easter egg" melodies throughout all the modern Doom games that come from the original. Its all MIDI however so that'll be fun :)
This is what you’d imagine a song called “Meathook” would sound like…
Oh and btw, you should totally listen to “Super Gore Nest”, but PLEASE listen to the Koma Mix, it’s much better than the official version.
super gore nest is one of the next DOOM tracks on my list!! will listen super soon!
@@emyoung awesome! Doom Eternal had like a bunch of of its music mixed not by Mick Gordon, but their team’s sound designer and it shows. Koma’s mixes can easily be found archived on UA-cam and contain parts missing from the official release OST and he structured the tracks better.
Doom Eternal has so many good banger songs.
dude i love meathook i play it when i play games
Just found your channel, so I realize this is a bit late. But from the OST, I believe "Cultist Base" is the only track which utilizes the chainsaw for riffs. It's very modified to sound guitar-like, but if you know what you're listening to it becomes a lot more obvious. Highly recommend you give that a look / listen!
If I remember correctly from the GDC talk it was the actual chainsaw sound from one of the games that helped him establish that unique sound to convince them to allow guitars, and it or a similar sound got mixed into a lot of the guitar processing. Could be like through a vocoder to add lots of texture but keep it tonally neutral.
If you listen very carefully, the choir in the back near the end is screaming: RIP AND TEAR!
cannot wait for u to play through this game its like if crack was a game
i'm stoked!!
the vocals towards the end say KAR EN TUK, which translates to RIP AND TEAR.
HELLWALKER!
Do the pause menu music. Not even joking here.
There’s a plug-in by Zynaptiq called Morph and Mick described “interpolating” the chainsaw into the guitar tone….I’ve watched that GDC talk he did and EMBARRASSINGLY amount times!
You should try listening to “Harbinger” from Doom 2016. There is quite a bit of buildup before the drop, but when it comes, the drop is so SICK and easily one of my favourite
This is gonna sound like heresy, but the *BEST* DOOM track ever written was actually a (professional) fanmade total rewrite of DOOM Eternal's DLC final boss, Fall of Davoth by Geoffrey Day. Basically he tried to interpret how Mick Gordon would've written the final boss track if he hadn't been screwed over by Bethesda, following the ethos with which he wrote both games' soundtracks that sadly the replacement artist didn't...
Because it's not 'official', nobody ever reacts to it (I've only ever seen one, by Windmill Full ov Corpses) and it deserves SO much more goddamn attention than it gets. I'd love to see you react to it. He worked with Mick on Atomic Heart most recently, and before that his claim to fame was/is doing Argent Metal (ie DOOM style) covers of various video game tracks, including a lot of SoulsBorne music. Even if it's not for content you should check him out, but god please, react to Fall of Davoth..!
Geoffrey Day is AMAZING. I love all of his stuff!
You should really check out the Warhammer 40k Darktide soundtrack.
specific songs:
Disposal Unit (Imperium Mix)
Immortal Imperium
Broadcast apparatus
OFFWORLD AUSPEX
Reality slipping
thanks for the recs!
This track plays during the 2nd Marauder encounter! Taras Nabad at the beginning.
Yay you read my comments :D
Hell ya, baby! Im in!
I really recommend the track “the doom hunter” since you noticed the sound effects in the tracks,its basically robotic sound effects the track
thanks for the rec!
Ah man can't wait for Super Gore Nest
FR
i'm stoked to hear that one!!
Oh really?
Awesome
Check out a few songs from killer instinct! Mick did the soundtracks for season 1 & 2! They are amazing!
I hit my best deadlift PR to this track.
You should do Damnation from the Doom 2016 OST next. Amazing and also has some vocals
Anup Sastry, one of my absolute favourite drummers, has made a cover of "The only thing they fear is you" with his wife, Maru Martinez. She is an amazing musician. If you haven't seen them, then it's definitely worth going for.
thanks for the rec!!
@@emyoung And thanks for the different breakdowns. Particularly enjoy the "Destiny" ones.
Mick Gordon went hard for Doom 16 you have Doom the icon of sin some other stuff on the sound spectrums just an insane amount of little details he put throughout all of Doom 16 soundtrack.
he was only giving about 9 months to come up with this.
Mick Gordon came up with doom Eternal soundtrack with only about nine months before release Bethesda tried doing him dirty.
It's amazing he was able to do so well with such little time.
Yeah a lot of stuff he wanted to do got left on The Cutting Room floor because he just wasn't given the time to do it.
Probably got recommended already but would love to see you react to Super Gore Nest (the 9 min version)
Super gore nest is one of the next Doom tracks I plan to film - coming SUPER soon
One of my favorite things to do is listen to Dogma 1 then rip and tear right after with no break between
Ultrakill's TENEBRE ROSSO SANGUE is also an insanely amazing track! Definitely worth a listen and ULTRAKILL IS PEAK FPS!
Ultrakill is the next video I'm editing!! should go up by Tuesday!!:)
I could be wrong with it being in this song. But I remember Mick saying with a previous song that the siren sound is actually meant to be the demons screaming and being scared of the doom slayer (the guy in the cover art)
You gotta do some war frame songs. Keith power hits
See I love the OST but there’s a version on Spotify that has one hell of a guitar solo and i highly recommend listening to it
Somehow, I completely forgot or never realized there was chanting in "Meathook", it seems like they're saying "Rip and tear", one of the major taglines of Doom Eternal and the Doom comics. As for other game OST tracks to take a listen to (besides the other ones I'd mentioned in a previous video), "Sugaan Essena" by The HU is worth a listen. EA Star Wars had The HU (Mongolian throat-singing metal band) make a track for Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, and "Sugaan Essena" is what they made. EA SW and The HU worked together to make the lyrics unique to Star Wars, but there's also a version called "Black Thunder", which has both Mongolian and English vocals featuring DL of Bad Wolves and Serj Tankian from System of A Down.
Quake and Quake 2 have some pretty great tracks as well, being done by Trent Reznor and Sascha Dikycian (AKA Sonic Mayhem) respectively. Sascha also worked on the soundtrack for Mass Effect 3 (all of the Mass Effect games have good artists too, like Jack Wall, Clint Mansell, Cris Velasco, Brian DiDomenico, etc). Alexander Brandon also made some good music for Unreal (1998) and Deus Ex (2000), very synth-oriented. I couldn't tell you what my favorite Quake/Quake 2 tracks are, but for Mass Effect and Deus Ex, I'd have to go with "Rannoch" and "The Synapse".
" it seems like they're saying "Rip and tear" ". Your close, and technically right. They are chanting Kar En Tuk which translates to Rip And Tear, then slowly transitions back into English.
@@PlanCeee Isn't Kar En Tuk a track of it's own too?
@@dweller132 Yea its a track, but its more screams of the damned and chanting, not really a musical track lol
I think you'd enjoy Prayer of the Diminished
very fast bass notes it was a race of quick reflexes, i played it to e string, its f#,g,g#, also to the same way the guitar to the track if someone notice her sound, Kostis and his guitar wins(ear player since many many years)
greetings to all from greece
Cultist Base is the one with the chainsaw.
Sería genial y me haría muy feliz que reaccionarias a Hellwalker del Doom de 2016. Sería genial ver qué opinas de una canción en la cual se usó una motosierra como instrumento musical
you have to react to Flesh and Metal from the 2016 game ost. It uses some wacky, weird sounds that are also crispy and clear at the same time. Highly recommend it for someone like you who studies sound design!
thanks for the rec! sounds sick!
The sound you called siren it’s the chain saw with distortion. The next ones to react maybe could be Cultist Base and BFG 10000(not BFG division). For a walk on the park check “Eternal Gains” it’s a good mix with the best.😂
Doom Eternal- OST - Kar en tuk too heavy
thanks for the recs! those are on my list to do super soon!
EEEEUUUUURGH so gnarly! Love it 😁
EEEUUURGH lmaoo
I love the DOOM soundtrack. Its about 60% sound engineering and ambience!
If you would like to listen to our Croatian music producer for Serious Sam game series I suggest listening to Serious Sam 4's Citadel track, either both peace and fight tracks or only the fight track and Serious Sam 3's Hero either vocal version of the track where he sang himself or instrumental version for the pure music.
Laughed when she said 'sounds like a chainsaw, I wonder what makes that sound.' Honey, it's a chainsaw. 😂
Super Gore Nest is prolly my favorite on Doom Eternal's soundtrack.
My favourite track is command and control
The part where there sounds like chainsaw and lawnmower it is because there is actually a chainsaw ore lawnmower 😂
Id like to see what you think of DOOM 2016s Harbinger
It's not a FPS but I think you'd like to check out Killer Instinct soundtrack at some point. Made by Mick Gordon which I didn't really know at the time (was before Doom eternal existed I think)
"The Choir of the Damned." Not a name for another song to check out or anything, that's the name that was given to the group that did the vocals for tracks like this one as well as Gladiator and Kar-En-Tuk. Mick Gordon actually went out and hired a bunch of both professional and amateur lead singers from metal bands, brought them into a small studio and explained to them the aim of each track's vocals was the screams of the damned. Ask me, they did an amazing job.
Definitely do Super Gore Nest ❤️
It's brutal as all Hell 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Nice. Super Gore Nest next 😁
I would highly recommend checking out Andrew Hulshults remake of the original doom soundtrack, "IDKFA", very tasty:)
He was also hired on for the Doom Eternal DLC music
🤘😎🤘
add to the fact the conditions he made this under, its amazing.
We dont have violins, we have violence
RIP AND TEAR!!!!!!!!
Isn't there a song in the Doom Eternal soundtrack that has a melody that can only be heard if you listen to it on a device with only one speaker or something? That's crazy.
Yeah, the Menu theme, if you turn on stereo or mono (I can't remember) you can hear a tune playing from the ending of the original game, where you discover Daisy's head on a pike
🗣️🔥🔥
Transistor Fist from DOOM(2016) is a good one. Hellwalker from the same game is a... different track. Gladiator from DOOM: Eternal is kind of a mix of this one and The Only Thing they Fear is You. Both games are full of amazing tracks. These are just some of my favorites that you haven't covered. BFG Division 2020, from this game, is a shorter and almost punchier version of the one from the 2016 game.
Has anyone recommended any songs from ultrakill yet?
A good one to listen to first might be *Unstoppable Force*
And then
*Requiem*
And
*Order*
Order has some bits from requiem because the songs are related to the same thing but at different times
I have an Ultrakill reaction filmed that I plan to post soon!! More coming!
you should try Blood swamp from Andrew Hulshult and Disposal Unit from Jesper Kyd
Should try cultist base
Mick Gordan is type of guy who can make a chainsaw sound good.
