07 Akira Yamaoka feat. Casey.M

Whether he's bringing to life the unique worlds of Suda51 with his rock, or terrorizing you with the ambiance of Silent Hill, Akira Yamaoka has arguably the most unique approach to video game music.

My guest for this episode is Casey, who you can hear on both the Bloodbath and Beyond podcast, and the Space Opera Satellite. Because it takes an expert on horror who has actually seen Silent Hill *points to links below* to adequately analyze the creative mind of Akira Yamaoka. And by the way, it's a good thing we recorded this episode before Guillermo Del Toro confirmed Junji Ito's involvement in the ill-fated Silent Hills. I can't imagine how depressed we would have been had we gotten that information in our discussion of PT.

There aren't really heavy spoilers in this episode, but I would still be weary of spoilers.
