There’s now some studio footage as well:
Original Story:
A preview of Killswitch Engage‘s new track “Loyalty” which was written for the upcoming ‘Game Of Thrones‘ mixtape, “Catch The Throne: The Mixtape, Vol. 2“, can be heard below. That preview first went live on Loudwire. Frontman Jesse Leach was surprisingly unfamiliar with the series when the band were first approaching about contributing to the mixtape, which will arrive sometime in March. He stated:
“I started doing my research and watching some of the stuff. And while I was writing the song, I didn’t really know what I was talking about. But [the show’s producers] give you a concept, they give you key words that you should use and sort of a give you a storyline. It was fun for me to work in that capacity, cause I’m used to just coming up with stuff on my off the spot. And they had a lot of cool trigger words, so it was interesting to see that come together.”
And yes, Leach has since binge watched all seasons of the series (though its unclear if he read the books.)
