Mammoth announces US tour dates: Check if they are visiting your city!
Wolfgang Van Halen recently decided to rebrand his band, changing its name from “Mammoth WVH” to simply “Mammoth”. Making a splash with this transformation, the band released a new song titled “The End” on Thursday (May 1), accompanied by a visually stunning music video directed by Robert Rodriguez that features notable stars like Danny Trejo and Slash. Drawing inspiration from Rodriguez’s well-known film “From Dusk Till Dawn” and a subtle homage to Michael Jackson’s legendary “Thriller” video, the video is a captivating visual treat for fans.
For Wolfgang, showcasing his musical prowess, the song includes an intricate tapping guitar solo, a skill that undoubtedly pays tribute to his legendary late father, Eddie Van Halen. Speaking about this dynamic piece, Wolfgang shared, “I’ve had the tapping idea on the intro for ‘The End’ since before Mammoth.” He further added, “It’s still over-the-top and shreddy, but it’s also melodic and controlled. Overall, I was doing some different things on the record, and I knew this was going to be a big step. Once we finished ‘The End,’ it felt really special to me.”
