Mastodon Excited By Game Of Thrones Involvement


. (Prog) Mastodon's Brann Dailor says they couldn't turn down the opportunity to contribute a track for the second volume of the Game Of Thrones mixtape as they're such big fans of the show.

They selected White Walker for the Catch The Throne compilation which also features artists including Anthrax, Killswitch Engage and Mushroomhead.

And Dailor says it was an easy decision to make as it gave them a chance to show another side to the band. He tells FasterLouder: "We're big fans of the show, and the writer is a big metal fan. Brent Hinds met some of the cast and one of the writers at Sonisphere, and we just kept in touch. They told us about this mixtape.

"Last year it was kind of a hip-hop thing, and they said they wanted to branch out and make it more of a mixtape and have other kinds of music involved. One of the styles they wanted was to include some metal bands.

"We get together and watch it - we're big fans. So when the opportunity presented itself we were excited to be a part of it. We're excited with what we were able to come up with, even if it's not a metal song per se." Read more here.
