Could you explain to me why it's so good and revolutionary? I just can't hear it.
Well, I've been listening to various kinds of metal for over 2 decades now and from that comparison, I don't hear anything special or exciting here.
The Kovenant made their In Times Before the Light heavy electro-industrial-metal remix 18 years ago. Limbonic Art released their brutal electro/atmospheric metal stuff over 20 years ago. Or how about DB's Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia or Mayhem's Grand Declaration of War? Again 20 years ago. Every one of these albums was way more innovative and progressive, for metal, than what I hear in the Doom soundtrack. Plus all those albums had super catchy riffs and not just some generic palm-muting. Or Arcturus' avant-garde metal with a lot of various samples and electronic stuff in it that went far beyond the metal genre?!
How could I, knowing all that, be blown away by some plain repetitive low guitar chugging with some over-saturated electronic stuff? How can metal community think this is something so fresh and unspeakably phenomenal?* Stuff like this, way better than this, exists in metal more than 20 years ago.
(And do people still remember something like Pink Floyd, they used various loony sample techniques more than 50 years ago.)
*Well, I vividly remember all those "my speed metal is faster than your speed metal and your symphonic black metal is not as symphonic and dark as my symphonic black metal and this band is not black/thrash/kinda heavy metal, it's melodic/death/gothic metal!!!" debates. Such a deep and wide musical knowledge as in metal communities is really hard to find. Wouldn't be surprised adding a noisy synth pad would create a whole new genre in there.
Or maybe I'm wrong and the metal community is a very sophisticated crowd now and the Doom soundtrack is so out-there revolutionary that I can't even get it.
