The members of the progressive metal band MASTODON were featured in new ‘Game Of Thrones’ episode, alongside their song for the show, ‘White Walker’
June 1, 2015
Mastodon’s musicians Brann Dailor, Bill Kelliher, and Brent Hinds can be seen as “wildlings” in the latest episode of Game Of Thrones, broadcast last night on HBO, according to Ptichfork. The band’s label unveiled that the executive producer of ‘Game Of Thrones’, Dan Weiss, is a Mastodon fan and it was his initiative to allocate cameos to the band.
“It was such an incredible experience to be on set as extras for our collective favorite show Game Of Thrones and to be wildlings murdered and then brought back to life by White Walkers was beyond amazing,” shares Brann. “I watched my best friends Brent and Bill, murdered right in front of me as I myself was stabbed in the stomach and had my throat slit multiple times, and I didn’t mind at all. It made me love being in Mastodon even more. We are more than privileged and honored to have been a part of one of the greatest stories ever told on film, and the catering wasn’t bad either.”
Check out Mastodon’s song on the show’s latest mixtape, Catch The Throne Vol. 2, below. The theme track is titled ‘White Walker’.
