Nine Inch Nails - Quake - Hall Of Souls

Another remarkable theme from the legendary PC-game Quake, released in 1996, which became a worthy follower of the id-software´s cult Doom. But what makes this game a very special one is the dark creepy occult soundtrack composed by Trent Reznor. It´s a masterpiece from the highest adept of his branch. Quake is still considered as one of the best soundtracks ever...

PS: It´s obvious that the visuals are complete out of rhytm and the slide show doesn´t correspond with the sound. This is caused due to the false time axle indications in Windows Movie Maker, which is a terribly weak program, but unfortunately the only one for making videos I possess...

I can feel the clicking in the back of my throat

Also, best soundtrack to any game that I can think of, and a kicking rad game, too.

@GnomeofNinjas "I can feel the clicking in the back of my throat"

Beautifully evil and of pure menace. Can definitely imagine satanic worshippers sacrificing a virgin and then devouring her flesh.

anyone cand recommend more like this?

@GnomeofNinjas I feel something similar, like the ticking is fingers picking at my skull. The meat-slurping sounds make it even more disturbing.

When I hear this song, I have a mental image of a technological place full of spinning fans, haunted by demons.

@SGtMarkIV Oh man I love the PSX Doom music too. It freaked my little bro out when I was playing it and he got really upset while I laughed at him, I'm such a cunt lol :D Good times!

I keep guessing what these cultists are doing while whispering. Maybe removing the organs from the body of a virgin woman to make their ritual, or something like that. Quake 1, side by side with PSX Doom, has one the best ambient soundtrack of all times.

It's sad to see that these modern games doesn't have such remarkable soundtracks like this anymore. They just make some generic background noises, and they already can call it "scary".
