    Game Of Thrones Cover in the vein of Amon Amarth anyone? :)

    So I finally started watching Game Of Thrones the other day. I'm only five episodes in but it seems to be a great show. :) The second I heard the opening titles for the first time I thought they would sound great as an Amon Amarth song. You know, that melody played with sharp 16th notes...
