Doom classical.

God Mode Off

[Book II, 840] ...And bring ye to the place where Death Shall dwell at ease, and up and down unseen Wing silently the buxom air, embalmed With odours; there ye shall be fed and filled Immeasurably, all things shall be your Prey.

Huh. Made more sense when I was being destroyed by insomnia.

[Patrol1985]

"The path of the righteous player is beset on all sides by the inequities of the map makers and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the noobs through the temple of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost souls. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Doomguy when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

-Pulp Fiction, Patrol's reinterpretation :P

With that title I was hoping for classical orchestral renditions of the Doom tunes.

As in, performed by a real orchestra.

Oh well, there's still some synths.

No orchestra, but "classical" nonetheless. As one youtube commenter aptly put it: it's "Doom 1920s version" (you probably know it anyway :P)

Bach composed goldberg variations for cembalo for Count Kaiserling as a cure for sleepless nights he had because he had played deathmatch too much.
