Wolfgang Van Halen and his band, Mammoth have dropped the video for their new single “The End.”

Van Halen says of the track, “I’ve had the tapping idea on the intro for ‘The End’ since before Mammoth. I was able to fit it into this world. 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.”

The star-studded video for “The End” is directed by Robert Rodriguez, and shows Van Halen’s take on Rodriguez’s 1996 action-horror film From Dusk Till Dawn. The video features a number of cameos, including Danny Trejo, Slash, Myles Kennedy, Van Halen’s mother, Valerie Bertinelli as well as his wife, Andraia Allsop.
