Anthrax have become the first metal band to be played on planet Mars.
The Mars probe Curiosity has a wake-up playlist each day and on day 6 the 1990 Anthrax track ‘Got The Time’ was played on the Martian surface.
“Yes, there will be moshing on Mars,” commented Anthrax founder Scott Ian.
Curiosity has also played ‘Echelon’ by 30 Seconds To Mars, The Beatles ‘Good Morning Good Morning’, the Star Wars theme and Wagner’s ‘The Ride Of The Valkyries’.
