Shit, that sucks to hear.
He created the zombie genre and shaped the genre to where it is right now.
May he rest in peace.

Inb4 unfortunate accurate jokes pertaining to him and his music. I am tempted to say one of these jokes but I am just going to keep my fucking mouth shut because I don't know whether to laugh or feel guilty with myself for even thinking of them. They do make pretty good music even though they've basically been fucking overdone and every single anime music video and meme ever made, but they did pretty good music. It's a damn shame.
