In a candid interview on the Brutality Podcast, Lorna Shore drummer Austin Archey addressed the ongoing debate about genre and deathcore's definition in modern extreme metal.

Archey, an ardent supporter of the scene, expressed his acceptance of criticism from purists who argue that the band no longer fits the traditional deathcore mold.

However, he also acknowledged Lorna Shore's role in sparking a wider deathcore revival, despite their own evolution beyond the label.

Archey admitted that the constant debate over the band's classification may have driven listeners back towards classic deathcore, reigniting interest in the sound they were once accused of abandoning.
