- NOW ENTERING: HOUSE OF PAIN
One of the loneliest, most somber melodies I've ever heard. Once you hear it, it lives in you for the rest of your life.
This weekend, we celebrate Doom Eternal's release. It's Hell on Earth - Doomsday, once more, and for all eternity. A thousand thanks to id Software, Bethesda, Bobby Prince and Mick Gordon.

"Once you hear it, it lives in you for the rest of your life."
You got that right. Always brings me back to reaching Phobos Anomaly for the first time.
100%. And meeting Barons of Hell there for the first time ever. The sound they make when they wake up... damn I was scared as a kid.
I was 10 years old...now I'm 35
@@jangofett2336 I was 8... Im 33 now. Doom was a game i had to take in doses.. F'n terrifying, and now im a doom eternal battlemode god ✌🍻
Exactly. The melody just never left me and it's been 28 years.
im 41 and i still remember being in 6th grade, playing that level for the first time, the hell demons being revealed, the feeling of being all alone, and afraid.
So dark, so deep, so painful........ most of All ..So beautiful!
I could not have said it better myself. You crystallized my feelings for this Doom track. Thank you and stay metal. 🤘🖤
@@ShreddingDragon Stay metal!
This is so perfect man, I need to say a thing:
when Doomslayer plays his guitar he sings this song near a campfire, eating some marshmallows and enjoying some peaceful time. haha xD
cheers
@@StefanST That he does 😂 Thanks so much man!
like me with my sister in dark room, deep feeling into sister
Yeah really suitable for a demon killing game
Every time I hear this I openly weep. I'm having this be the song played at my funeral. This is so fucking powerful. I will never shut up about how moving this cover is.
Song I meant
@@christopherleone21 ?
Once you beat the big badasses and clear out the moon base you're supposed to win, aren't you? Aren't you? Where's your fat reward and ticket home? What the hell is this?
Aside from that, great work. In my opinion it keeps the same feeling as the original while sounding different enough to matter.
Thank you!! That makes me happy.
And one day I'll really have to make a cover of that episode end theme. Mick Gordon's version in Eternal was just otherworldly good.
Definitely one of the most stellar covers of the original Doom soundtrack - and with twists here and there :)
The soundtrack of PSX Doom ports are worth listening, too, they're dark ambient with eerie soundscapes that truly contribute to the primal atmospheric fear that the Doom game series compels, especially the hellish levels.
@@pistool1 The PSX and N64 soundtracks are great too. I've heard people say they don't fit Doom, but even the original soundtrack wasn't all metal, with tracks like Demons on the Prey, Opening to Hell, and of course Sign of Evil paving the way for that take on Doom.
“The wars over, but so much is wrong, broken.
We’re gonna stay behind, make sure to pick up the pieces but for now,
We suffer victory.”
👍
🙏!!
The Man himself gave his blessing
!!!
Many covers can capture the emotion that Sign of Evil packs. Others can turn it into something more upbeat. What you have done is something else. That E1M8 feeling is amplified tenfold, and turned into something completely beyond anything I've ever heard. This is easily the best remake of Sign of Evil that I've ever heard, and I don't think it will ever be topped.
It doesn't matter how many people are in the room with me, this song makes me feel alone.
Sorry for not replying before. Something about your comment reached a deep part of me: That last sentence, it says it all. That's quote-worthy and very beautifully said. Thank you sincerely.
I some think big cropations are stealing from hard if a company like I’d is getting shout down Bescause I love doom❤
"Welcome home, great Slayer."
this is what god felt when lucifer rebelled
Wtf, HOW does this only have 84 views?! This is absolutely phenomenal!
Thank you, much appreciated! 🤘
Well that's it, I'm learning acoustic to play that solo part...
First solo:
1(Fourth fret, high string, use your third finger.
2(Second fret, slide to the third fret still on the top string. Use middle finger.
3(first fret, still high string, use your first finger.
4(go to the second highest string, and use your third finger on the fourth fret there
5(directly after doing step 4, immediately go to the third fret on the high string using your middle finger
I myself am still learning the rest.
Just so you know, I’m talking about the part at 1:05. The part at 0:00 is a bar cord, which is VERY HARD for a beginner, but considering it’s been 9 months, you probably should have done something with your guitar by now.
“Happiness Has To Be Fought For…”
The ending really gave me goosebumps ,this remix is god tier.
Thank you so much!
One day in the past all these rooms were full of demons and players. Nowadays, they still have their lights on, their barrels can still be exploded, their bodies still burn, but no player visits them anymore. Hell now seems calm. Good video.
this is a professional fucking work, astonishing
Thank you, it means a lot to me!
I've been looking everywhere for a good metal cover of this song. You knocked it out of the goddamn park. This is just fantastic! Please keep making more!!!!!!!!!
69th like
this is way too under-viewed and unnoticed....this has to be even top 3 of the best sign of evil remixes out there. amazing dude
also i love that little reference to the doom 2016 sign of evil choir at 6:32
Thank you so much man! Really appreciate your words. And also I'm so happy someone noticed the Doom 2016 choir reference, cheers! 🤘😄
Shredd of course! keep up the good work
it's #1
This is one of the best versions I've heard of this song. I love it so much.
Thank you for the support, and glad to hear you like it!!
It's everything I need in an E1M8 remix and more. Phenomenal
(also pairing the original with the 2016 choir is the best musical decision i've ever witnessed lol)
This is phenomenal, great arrangement, awesome mix, the chorus at the end is just superb, overall super balanced sense of musicality, just wow man. Great job indeed!
I can't thank you enough for your words. So glad you enjoyed this. Stay safe my friend, stay metal, let's all keep the Doom community burning eternally! 🤘
This cover is perfect, the melody, the switching of moods, and most of all the mix of instruments. It gives you the feeling of flashbacks, anger, sadness and an accurate presentation on how much torment DOOMGUY had to go through. This cover you made it well and perfect. Good Job 👍
Epic... the slow solo is haunting... and the added Latin chants actually fit in quite well.
2:50 is where it really gets good
Oh man, you're not lying. How that guitar sets in this mournful weep is just so, so good.
and 5:27 🔥
After listening this song for the umpteenth time, I started to hear a voice talking to me. I mean, literally, not figuratively, but a voice speaking in an exotic foreign language throughout the song, as if the bass could speak. Interesting experience, I must admit. Masterpiece.
I don't believe you because you sound like a super try hard edge master. But if I did believe you I would suggest getting help. You're not cool.
This is really really good, the way it ebbs and flows, so much light and shade, and the Latin chants were fantastic also...brilliant re-imagining, really well done my friend :)
Thank you for the kind words!! 🤘💥 Much appreciated.
@@ShreddingDragon No problem 👍🏼
I have no words but I'm putting this on repeat
No words - just demons and your shotgun.
This touches my heart
DUDE! This thing is sick! I've probably contributed about 20+ of these views by myself! You did an amazing job, and you nailed the feeling that Sign of Evil gives me: and ominous track that symbolizes the journey ahead.
Thank you so much for those kind words and support! You know, Sign of Evil really has that vibe - it's like that serene moment when you finally realize and accept how far deep in Hell you really are, and how long the journey home still is. That's powerful.
Dude, I felt this much emotion in very few songs. I especially love the mood shift when the distortion kicks in, it's like going from sadness/melancholy to despair. The way the guitar cries, I get chills...
Man. I just happened to have a bit of a bad day, and when I read your comment, it really lifted me up. Thank you so much for that. 🖤🤘
@@ShreddingDragon will me learning your cover if you give me the tabs cheer you up even more lol?
@@ChosenofDarkness8 Well for sure man! I've been meaning to make tabs. It's gonna take some time, but they're coming. Thanks :)
Beautiful.
Rip and tear
Until it is done.
10/10. Sublime, perfect capture of the feel of this track.
Thank you immensely. 🖤
Without a doubt it has become one of the versions of Sign Of Evil that I've liked the most, and I can dare to say that it's already my favorite :D
One of the best covers ever of this song
Truly a piece of art
Thank you sincerely for the support!! 🤘
God this is perfect, just the sadness, quiet, dark loneliness that swings into bitter hate, contempt, rage and screaming into the void as you feel embrace you and ultimately accept your fate.
Everything here is beautifully done and the Latin Choir is wonder touch! My only gripe is this isn't more popular and viewed. It's a wonderful experience and just captures a side of the original piece I never thought of.
So beautifully said! Thank you very much!
Perfect description. This song is helping me with a lot right now
El amor está temporal... pero DooM es Eternal... *_cocks acoustic guitar_*
El amor por esta canción será eternal
One of the few tracks I keep on loop on YT, I would like to see more of these on the future. Really well made.
Thank you so much, very much appreciated! I'm busy recording another project, but more Doom is underway and the next one will be from Episode 1.
i could really feel the sign of evil at this part 5:13
This is very good! I hope more people find this.
This definitely captures the dark, melancholic tone of the original Sign of Evil, which is just fitting for House of Pain, as at that point you're deep in the bowels of Hell, a realm of hopelessness and despair.
Thank you so much. That melancholic loneliness is a strong element in Doom’s music and level design. The maps feel not so much like places you could travel between, but like dreams you could have… or nightmares, I should say.
Two there were, two demons, two barons of hell.
i will never get tired of listening to this song, it's just too good to stop listening to it
that feeling of "Youre almost there, just push foward a little longer, its almost over" feeling running through your body when this song plays
I unliked this so i can like it again. Still listening to this song 2 years later.
"The house of pain is actual pain"
-civvie11
I love this, its awesome.
I dont know if you know this but signs of evil is like a direct rip of Starless by King Crimson and so its awesome to hear someone play this song in a different direction and give it a heavier sound
i was 12 when I first heard this, almot 40 years later the remixes still haunt me
Doom was not made in 1983...
@@jasonturek6671 didnt say it was.
@@blinkth3dog you said "almost 40 years later" after hearing this for this first time
@@jasonturek6671 you realize a 3 and 4 are next to each other. gosh you never made a typo?
@@blinkth3dog edit your comment then
this hits hard, i like it, Satan approved
Thank you Satan! 🖤
@@ShreddingDragon
I agree with Satan, you did a wonderful job with this
@@martonmeszaros1187 Thank you! Glad to hear 🤘
After listening to Hulshult's version, I wanted to check out some more. I can confidently say, that this is the best one. THIS SHIT ROCKS🔥🔥🔥
That intro is... Any possible compliment is unworthy of it. Holy shit.
this alongside the Andrew Hulshult version remains as one of the greatest video game music covers ever.
It lives in me. I fucking love this song. Great rendition dude.
Thank you so much, really appreciated! All the best to you, slayer.
This reaches the core of everything inside me.
The way the guitar is played... you can feel it in the bones!
This should be called "Once upon a time in Hell"...
it really did live in my head rent free lol im back to it after 4 years
Honestly this is a thousand times better than Hulshult, Shredd manages to capture the original feel of desolation while adding a new aspect of metal. It's perfect.
Aw man, I love Hulshult's style!
To elaborate Shredd catches the original feel and then amplifies it while Hulshult went an entirely different way, both are good but Shredd definitely takes the cake. Keep up the good work
@@aidanhoward5111 Really humbled by your words. Thank you so much. Keep slaying.
@@ShreddingDragon it's been a year and I'm still regularly listening to this masterpiece
Oh, yes. Amazing cover. I love the progression from acoustic and then hard metal from 3:00 on. Unexpectedly lush with guitar riff detail and delayed intro to the drums. 10/10!!
Oh man. This effing rocks. Just keeps getting better and better.
This is so beautiful. Hellishly beautiful. First time playing the classic doom. Haven't played the 2016 version yet so I'm just taking time playing the OGs before the modern releases. And I came across this OST in this level and loved it. And now your cover version blew me away to hell on earth. Thank you for this. 🔥🌹💎
Thank you so much! Beautifully said. Thank you. ❤🤘 I truly hope you're enjoying your playthrough of Doom, and high respect for playing the originals first! If you choose to play the modern ones afterwards, you're gonna find so many cool references to the old games there.
I'm actually really curious: How are you liking Doom, as someone who is playing it for the first time in 2024? How does the game feel for you, has it surprised you in one way or another? What's best about it?
@@ShreddingDragon Oh, I'm loving every second of the levels. It feels like I'm experiencing an immersive documentary of how video games have come so far. Like, in my current gaming sessions, I have Red Dead Redemption 2 and the classic Doom. So going back and forth between these two games makes you appreciate the craft that has been put into them despite the different generation.
The surprising thing about Doom is the community behind it. Guys like you and the gaming youtubers (shoutout to @Decino) who are still releasing mods, wads, doing playthroughs and making music covers keeps the game alive. Just this recently, id software re-released the game with a super-bundle running on new engine and I'm stoked to try out the new 16 levels. You know what they say...Doom is Eternal! 🔥🤘
@@abidchy4479 That’s tight man! And thanks for the tip, I’m gonna check out that id Software re-release. It’s just fun to try out different sourceports and versions.
If you end up wanting more og Doom and appreciate horror games, I highly recommend playing the PSX version of Doom. Same game, but it has a completely different soundtrack (dark ambient by Aubrey Hodges), colored lighting, and everything is just creepier!
@@ShreddingDragon Yo! Damn! The PSX version is really dark and gritty. It's crazy how Aubrey Hodges' score and lighting gives it an ultra-nightmare dead space type of experience. Playstation folks were smoking something back then....
Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Dinocrisis and this? Holy shit!
This is a great mix of E1M8!!! Keep up the great work!
I think the only thing I don't like about this, just on a first impression basis, is that I was really hoping it would maintain the haunting atmospheric acoustic because it's almost impossible to find a cover that doesn't break out into an epic metal song and I was really hoping this would be different. But it is still good, on its own merits this is one of the best covers.
Holy shit this is good af
Or should I say hellish shit
@@jesusrosales6888 Absolutely 😂
As he gazed upon the blood of his enemies that stained his hands, he realized that his mission, his quest, his crusade… had only just begun. He approached the portal, shotgun drawn, blood boiling, and heart full of rage, ready to do what he was created for… to *rip* and *tear* the forces of Hell to shreds…
He chose the path of perpetual torment.
May the blood on his sword never dry, and we never need him again.
Wait a minute, near the end I heard a bit of III. Dakhma in the background. Nice dude
You put them through the same pain they inflict on others for taking what you held so near and dear to your heart.
But
Their screams can never be silenced. Their mistry never ending. You think you can just put them down like a suffering dog but, this *is* suffering, no where else to go. They're doomed to eternal death, their pain can never end, their wounds can never heal. Even if you could save them how would they escape, how would they fight.
Efforts in vein.
Vengeance for the eternal damnation.

1:03 I imagine this would slowly build up in the background when doomguy steps through a portal. only to wind up in a feild finding daisys head on a pike with her body on the ground next to it.
People need to see this!
In my opinion, this cover deserves a million views. It's high quality and beautifully crafted.
Suena increíblemente bien.
Me encanta la atmósfera de soledad y poder que transmite.
Esto es insuperable
Muchas gracias! ❤
481 views for a remix that is done VERY well. Course titling E4M4, most people don't even search that up since most people remember it as E1M8. But hey, its still really nice, I love how you conducted this remix. Yes, remix, not cover since this is more than a cover, its a makeover from the original and I love it to bits! I'm gonna try my best to post this on my FB and all for ya man, this needs A LOT of love!
Wow, thank you so much! I truly appreciate it. And you're right, most people likely look for E1M8 Phobos Anomaly first. However the reason why I personally chose E3M4 instead was that the name "House of Pain", and the level's visuals, always made me feel strongly about this music track. For me, they all belong together in that certain melancholic style which I love.
Not to say that "Phobos Anomaly" wouldn't make an awesome prog metal track name!
@@ShreddingDragon Hey brother, I just wanted to let you know that I also added a tiny segment of your cover in my Doom Eternal Part 22 video as an outro. I obviously credited you in my desc because this SoE is one of the best that exists. Thank you again for making this masterpiece
I forgot to mention, a late mention, that your work is also in rotation in DOOM Radio - Beats to rip/tear to. So now, people who tune in there will have a chance to hear your song randomly and flock over to your channel! :D
The perfect synchronicity
2024 and stills my favorite music.
always loved the tone of despair to this track, went hand in hand with the theme of Doom itself. Great cover.
This is really great.
Thank you!
Yooo this remix slaps , never heard something like this before
This is beyond BEAUTIFUL! I've always loved the somber ones in the original Doom & Doom 2 soundtracks, e3m4 (Sign of Evil), d_victor (The End of DOOM), and d_read_me, and I've been listening to them since I first played Doom in 1994. They are masterpieces in their own right.
But this remake is on another level!
True beauty.
Thank you sincerely 🖤
I will never forget the first time I got to Phobos anomaly. I didn’t think anything of the music at first, as it is just some drums and a little chanting. Then once I killed the pinky’s and got into that hallway with the torches right before the elevator, it hit. I had to stop, and I cried. I remember being able to feel the sadness and rage that doom guy must’ve felt by this point. Great experience.
This mix is one of the best I’ve heard. Most give the track a more upbeat vibe, but shredd, if anything, made it deeper, sadder, and more moving. This man deserves more subs
Hauntingly beautiful, I have no words worthy enough. Thank you for this cover and I wish you the best!
This is SIIIICK! I remember this from the game so well, but have never heard it sound so good!
Actually amazing. The sound quality is surprisingly good for such a small channel and the actual cover is sick! One of my favorite osts
just want to let you know that i come back here every once in a while, and yup, this is one of my favorite game osts of all time and this has to be the best rendition of this track. props!
One of the best covers for all time, btw i love the transition between the guitars
I can describe my emotions with only 1 word....
GODLIKE ! ! !
Thats really amazing, wow... Just WOW!
Bro, I didn't expect it to be good at this level 🔥
Absolutely phenomenal, great work!
Thank you so much!
Bro THIS is who should be making official doom music
The ending made the hairs on my arms stand up! This cover is absolutely perfect!
Thank you so much! 🤘🖤
No no thank YOU! You’ve made an immortal cover!
Not that I’m trying to mess with the master of your craft or anything, but is there any way you could create a 30-60 minute extended version? This cover has immediately become my go-to track for when I’m studying and an extended version would work wonders for me when I need to tune out the world
@@BlackFox0911 Give me a few days. I'll make an extended version.
Really wish they called the song "Days Numbered" or something like that. Gives you that vibe, especially since it's the last map of the first episode and you "die" at the end.
There's a definite finality or determinism to this melody. It's like "your final stand against Them". But as everybody knows, it was only the beginning. The first age, the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened...
@@ShreddingDragon damn...(ation)
This is so unbelievably good I can't even put it in words. Thank you for making this gem of a song!
Thank YOU for listening and supporting! 🤘
I'm more than just impressed, great work
1:06 got me in chills
Nunca había escuchado nada igual, tantos remixes pero ninguno tan epico triste y emocional como esté!!!
bro this is amazing! Great work
This is amazing! Doom has the best Soundtrack
Thank you very much! Agreed, Doom's soundtrack really is something very special within the video game music history. It's full of ideas and atmosphere, really golden stuff from the earlier days of gaming's golden age.
Back again a year later to let you know this is still in the daily rotation. Truly amazing.
i dont know if you're still on yt anymore, but god damn, this is easily one of, if not my favorite doom remix/cover ever
So powerful and moving. Such a beautiful song to cover. This is one of my favorite doom songs. Thanks for doing this song.
This is downright soulful.
