"Doom Eternal" is quite a spectacle if you like heavy metal hellholes, but the biggest treat is your ears. Composer Mick Gordon's monstrous soundtrack is the perfect accompaniment to the demonic carnage, but there is something off about the newly released OST.

While listening to the soundtrack and trying to figure out why the sound quality was worse than the previous one, audioblogger thatACDCguy explained what had changed in a Twitter thread.

He compared the BFG Division and Doom Eternal versions of "Doom" (2016) and found a noticeable difference in the wavelength of the tracks. See below.

Audiophiles explain that the new version has less dynamic range between instruments, resulting in smoother wavelengths and all instruments competing for your ears' attention.

Thankfully, even the questionable mix remains a killer OST, and streaming it on Spotify, etc., where the quality has declined, should still entertain your aging eardrums. This version will be released in "a few weeks." But perhaps that's not all.

Gordon, in response, explained that he did not mix the track. Apparently, the composer mixed "only a handful" and not much compression.

He seemed less than impressed, suggesting that he was not involved in the decision. After this, a fan allegedly contacted the composer on Instagram, which they shared on Reddit. He said, "I doubt we will ever work together again."

I contacted Gordon to get more details about the mix and id's relationship with Bethesda.

"I take pride in my work," he said. I take pride in my work." He added that he was still trying to understand the situation himself and had no further comment at this time.

In addition to composing the soundtracks for "Doom" and "Doom Eternal," Gordon has also written music for both modern Wolfenstein films, as well as many other games.
