Mick Gordon's "BFG Division" Reaches 100 Million Spotify Streams, Underscoring Doom's Enduring Impact

A significant milestone has been reached for the 2016 Doom reboot's soundtrack: Mick Gordon's "BFG Division" has surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify. This achievement highlights not only the track's popularity but also the enduring legacy of the Doom franchise and its iconic metal-infused score.

The Doom series, a pioneer of the first-person shooter genre, continues to resonate with gamers. Its fast-paced gameplay and distinctive heavy metal soundtrack have cemented its place in gaming history and popular culture. The success of "BFG Division" is a testament to this enduring appeal.

Gordon's announcement of the 100 million stream milestone on social media further emphasizes the impact of his work on the Doom reboot. The celebratory post featured a banner showcasing the impressive streaming numbers.

The Soundtrack's Influence on Doom's Legacy

Gordon's contributions to the Doom franchise extend beyond "BFG Division." He crafted numerous memorable heavy metal tracks perfectly synchronized with the game's intense action sequences. His work continued with Doom Eternal, further solidifying the metal soundtrack as a defining characteristic of the series.

Gordon's compositional talents are not limited to Doom. His impressive portfolio includes soundtracks for other prominent first-person shooters, such as Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus (Bethesda/id Software) and Borderlands 3 (Gearbox/2K).

However, despite his significant contributions to the Doom franchise, Gordon will not be returning to compose for the upcoming Doom: The Dark Ages. He has publicly cited creative differences and production challenges during the development of Doom Eternal as the reason for his departure.
