Title Origin Official

I Sawed the Demons is a song from Doom composed by Bobby Prince which relies heavily on two electric guitars and drums. Listeners often compare the song to AC/DC's Big Gun or Helstar's Burning Star. It also follows a similar chord structure from the James Bond Theme, as well as the title music from After Burner. Bobby Prince used Sequencer Plus Gold to compose this track.

Title

The title of the tune is an obvious play-on-words, featuring the word "sawed" as if a past tense of the word "see" but, in fact, the word "saw" meaning "to cut with a (chain-)saw".
