Sure there’s always politics and conspiracy theories to fall back on, but Megadeth‘s frontman/guitarist Dave Mustaine took inspirated from an unexpected source for one new song on the band’s latest release, “Dystopia“. The History TV show ‘Vikings‘ inspired the track “Poisonous Shadows“—or as Mustaine explains below—a conversation between characters Ragnar Lothbrok and Floki.
Hell yeah! New #Megadeth song Poisonous Shadows came from Ragnar & Floki's conversation after a day of pillaging! https://t.co/38qlH4v6Nw
