Metal Hammer have reported that thrash metal legends Anthrax will be recording the drums of their forthcoming 11th album in the Westeros throne room from the hit TV show ‘Game of Thrones’.

When asked about the project guitarist Scott Ian told TeamRock Radio:

“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.”

It appears than the band will be recording on the location in Belfast, and we do very much look forward to hearing how the drum acoustics will fare next to the Iron Throne…hopefully with less Joffery.
