The National’s Matt Berninger’s booming baritone is the perfect fit for the band’s new song, “The Rains of Castamere,” which is based inspired by HBO’s <i>Game of Thrones</i>. With lyrics written by series creator George R. R. Martin, the song deals with subject matter that hasn’t appeared in the show, which paired with its highly poetic style means it doesn’t have much bearing on the story.

The track will be on the soundtrack for the show’s second season.
