In a recent interview with Rabid Noise, Killswitch Engage frontman Jesse Leach stated the following:
“We’re getting together mid-February to show each other our own demos and talk about it. But, in the meantime, we’ll have a song come out in April, which is part of the ‘Game Of Thrones‘ TV series (more on that HERE). We wrote a song for them, and we’re all pretty proud of it, man.
