And now for something a bit different. As the anticipation builds for the next season of HBO's popular series Game Of Thrones, there is a new mixtape coming up, "Catch the Throne: The Mixtape, Vol. 2", and today saw the premiere of a 40-second snippet of Killswitch Engage's contribution, a new track called "Loyalty". You can whet your appetite over here. The band recently recorded the new song as they were asked to contribute to the mixtape.

Singer Jesse Leach recently 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."

Apart from Killswitch Engage, "Catch the Throne: The Mixtape, Vol. 2" will include contributions from metallers Anthrax, Snoop Dogg, Method Man and Yandel. The mixtape is expected to drop in March in advance of the Season 5 debut of Game Of Thrones which starts on April 12th on HBO.

"When you play the game of thrones you win or you die." Right?
