Anthrax hope to return to King’s Landing to record some drum parts for their new album on the set of HBO‘s “Game Of Thrones“. Of that guitarist Scott Ian told Metal Hammer:
“I asked Dan Weiss ‘Hey man, what would be the possibility of us recording the drums for the next album in the throne room?’ Like we bring a mobile studio and set up the drums, mic everything and record in here. He says ‘Oh my God that would be the sickest thing ever. We know the guys that can make that possible.’
“All of you out there who watch Game Of Thrones, much like me, probably think it is a very metal TV show. And just know, the reason for that is that one of the creators of it is a huge metalhead.”
The Dan Weiss referred to above is better known as D.B. Weiss—who executive produces and is a co-showrunner, among other functions on the TV adaptation of the series. Ian doesn’t exaggerate regarding Weiss‘s love of metal as he was also seen wearing a Metallica shirt in this photo alongside Mastodon‘s Brent Hinds earlier this week.
