Doom Eternal is a first-person shooter released in 2020 by id Software as the sequel to Doom from 2016, following the Doom Slayer as he battles demonic forces on Earth and beyond. Its soundtrack, composed by Mick Gordon, became famous in its own right for its heavy, industrial metal style and its close tie to the game's fast combat. Clips from the game spread through gaming videos, streams and meme edits, where the music signals aggression and unstoppable momentum. That association keeps it popular for creators who want instant intensity without explanation.
