HBO has found the perfect way to mark the final season of their hit fantasy series Game of Thrones. The network teamed up with Columbia Records for a new GoT-inspired album For the Throne (Music Inspired by the HBO Series Game of Thrones), which is scheduled for release on April 26th.
The album will feature new tracks from some of the most notable acts in today’s music including The National, Mumford and Sons, Rosalía, Muse frontman Matthew Bellamy, ASAP Rocky, Lil Peep, Ellie Goulding, and many more.
While the complete track list for this exciting Game of Thrones soundtrack is yet to be revealed, Pitchfork reports that one of the songs will be a collaboration between SZA, Travis Scott, and The Weeknd.
Several of these artists already have ties with the show with The National recording a version of “The Rains of Castamere” for season two episode “Blackwater.”
For the Throne (Music Inspired by the HBO Series Game of Thrones) will be available on several formats including 11 different vinyl editions. There will be nine variations of the vinyl release that will honor nine different GoT houses and their crests while the show’s fans will also be able to get a configuration featuring fire and ice-colored vinyl alongside a standard release version.
