Best known for his work on the Silent Hill series and last year’s Shadows of the Damned, Akira Yamaoka looks to be creating another memorable soundtrack in Grasshopper’s upcoming Lollipop Chainsaw. This time, he has enlisted the help of lead singer Jimmy Urine from electro-punk band Mindless Self Indulgence to compose music for the crazy, over-the-top boss battles.
In this exclusive trailer you’ll hear from both composers and see what inspired the sound that will accompany zombie-hunter Juliet Starling and her quest to end the infestation.
