To celebrate the worldwide release of his third album The End, Grammy Award-nominated songwriter, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, Wolfgang Van Halen, is back with another instalment music video for the Mammoth-verse. “Same Old Song” picks up where the video for “The End” wraps up and returns the universe created by Wolfgang back to normal.
The music video for “The End” – directed by Robert Rodriguez – saw Wolfgang’s bandmates mauled by a collection of zombies, vampires, and werewolves. “Same Old Song” starts with Wolfgang waking up from a dream and realizing things are back to normal as the band rehearses the new song. Directed by JT Ibanez, the video shows Mammoth depicting their trademark live-performance style that they have come to be known for.
Watch below:
The End is now available everywhere music is consumed via label home BMG. The 10-track album – produced by friend and collaborator Michael “Elvis” Baskette – clocks in at 39-minuttes and showcases the evolution of Wolf and his songwriting since he launched his solo career in 2020. Continuing the tradition of writing all the songs and performing all the instrumentation and vocals himself, Wolfgang Van Halen set out to challenge himself beyond what he did on his debut and second release, Mammoth II. From the hypnotic opening of “One Of A Kind” to infectious closer “All In Good Time,” Wolfgang demonstrates his proficiency as a musician and songwriter. Songs like “Happy,” “Something New” and “Selfish” will fit perfectly alongside older songs that fans have already come to love from Mammoth.
The End is available in multiple configurations including limited edition vinyl colours, signed insert version, and retailer exclusives here.
Wolfgang talks about Mammoth’s The End album in a new Q&A with Mike Palm at Tribune-Review.
