Video Game Song Surpasses 100 Million Streams on Spotify

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

Mick Gordon's iconic "BFG Division" from the 2016 Doom reboot has achieved a remarkable milestone: 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 distinctive metal soundtrack.

The Doom series, a pioneer of the first-person shooter genre, continues to resonate with gamers. Its fast-paced gameplay and unique heavy metal score, largely attributed to Gordon's talent, have cemented its place in gaming history and popular culture.

Gordon's announcement of the streaming milestone on Twitter, accompanied by celebratory emojis, underscores the significant impact of his work. "BFG Division," a key track synonymous with the game's intense action sequences, exemplifies the powerful synergy between music and gameplay.

The Soundtrack's Lasting Influence

Gordon's contributions to the Doom franchise extend beyond "BFG Division." He composed numerous tracks for Doom 2016 and its sequel, Doom Eternal, solidifying the metal-infused soundtrack as a defining element of the series.

His compositional prowess isn't limited to Doom. Gordon's credits include other prominent FPS titles, such as Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus (Bethesda/id Software) and Borderlands 3 (Gearbox/2K).

Despite his significant contributions, Gordon will not be returning to compose for the upcoming Doom: The Dark Ages. He has publicly cited creative differences and production challenges during Doom Eternal as reasons for his decision.
