“Game Of Thrones” Enlists Sigur Rós
In what’s become a “Game of Thrones” tradition, the HBO fantasy hit has teamed with an acclaimed indie band for the upcoming season. “Thrones” has landed Icelandic art-pop sensation Sigur Rós (pictured) to appear in season four. Jón Þór “Jónsi†Birgisson, Georg Hólm and Orri Páll Dýrason are currently shooting an appearance on the “Thrones” set in Croatia. What will the band mates do? Will they play a song? Might a bowed guitar be involved? In past seasons, Thrones has tapped The National and The Hold Steady to perform songs inspired by lyrics in George R.R. Martin’s “Song of Ice and Fire” saga. Sigur Ros, meanwhile, are getting ready for a U.S. tour. Will Throne-heads swarm the arenas?
