Well, who saw this coming? Legendary video game designer Hideo Kojima, responsible for everything from the Metal Gear series to Death Stranding (and the horrifying P.T.), took to Twitter this morning to let everyone know he's received his copy of the latest Lorna Shore record.
"Thanks to Sony Music for sending me Lorna Shore's latest album PAIN REMAINS," wrote Kojima. "It seems that this is the landing album and debut album in Japan. It is a stiff deathcore, isn't it?"
Now we're just waiting for Lorna Shore to change their description of themselves to "stiff deathcore," and for Kojima to include Lorna Shore in the Death Stranding 2 soundtrack.
Lorna Shore will hit the road with Gojira and Mastodon next month. Get the dates below.
