Argent Metal, also known as Doom-Core and Argent-Core, is an aggressive music genre pioneered by composer Mick Gordon in the Doom 2016 videogame reboot and its sequel, Doom Eternal. A subset of the Metal genre, it makes heavy use of synthesized djent-like guitar riffs overlaid with distorted electronic elements derived from sine wave frequencies. The word "Argent" is in reference to the demonic energy from Hell, known as Argent Energy, in Doom 2016. One could correctly describe it as "Audio Violence".
Demon 1: Dude, what's that hellish noise?
Demon 2: That's Argent Metal. You should check it out, it'll rip and tear your ear drums.
