After conquering rock radio, the Billboard charts, and every instrument known to man (and possibly a few unknown to science), Wolfgang Van Halen returns with his third album as MAMMOTH (previously Mammoth WVH), ominously titled The End.
And what better way to say “this is the end” than with an album cover featuring a human figure completely engulfed in flames, standing proudly on a bold yellow background? It’s giving “spontaneous combustion meets minimalist merch design” and fans are here for it.
Yes, Wolfie has once again written, sung, played, produced, cooked, and possibly extinguished the entire album by himself. No bandmates were harmed (or needed) in the making of this record. Because let’s be honest—why delegate when you can do literally everything?
This is the same man who:
Opened for Metallica and Pantera.
Played with the Foo Fighters.
Honored Jon Bon Jovi while melting everyone’s face on live TV.
Probably rebuilt his studio from scratch with one hand while shredding a solo with the other.
And now, with The End, he’s delivered what might be the only album that doubles as both a rock record and a fire safety warning poster.
