Mick Gordon’s song controversy explained

 

Following the release of Doom Eternal’s OST in April of 2020, several online music bloggers and fans noted the disparity in quality between the Doom (2016) OST and the one released with Eternal.

On April 19, Gordon confirmed on Twitter that much of it was not his work. Subsequently, Marty Stratton an executive producer at id Software, posted an open letter, on Reddit that alleged Gordon did not provide the source material for the additional tracks on the OST and that he required a contractual extension to get the OST completed in time.

Following this, public outcry against Gordon reached a level where he received explicit death threats and graphic messages of intent to harm him and his family. Gordon’s message accounts, servers, and phones were allegedly inundated with abuse, seriously impacting his mental health.
