🔥🎸 “Frankenstein, my wife, and we’re good.” Wolfgang Van Halen revealed that during the devastating LA wildfires, he kept his father Eddie Van Halen’s most legendary guitar — the iconic Frankenstein — in the backseat of his car for three weeks, ready to roll if evacuation orders came down.

The Mammoth WVH frontman told Premier Guitar that protecting the priceless piece of rock history became his top priority while chaos unfolded around Los Angeles. Entire neighborhoods were threatened, musicians scrambled to save gear, and for Wolfgang, the stakes couldn’t have been higher — 5150 Studios and his dad’s irreplaceable legacy were in the fire’s path.

⚡ “I thought, I’ll have Frankenstein and my wife, and we’re good,” Wolfgang shared. “We had a U-Haul packed with everything else we felt was worth saving. Luckily, it didn’t come to that — but it was a traumatizing time we’re still working through.”

That experience directly fueled the anxious, apocalyptic energy behind Mammoth WVH’s new album The End, dropping October 24. Wolf says this record finds him stepping out with a rawer, unfiltered guitar vibe:
👉 “On the first album I was really reserved. Now, I’m worrying less about what people think. The rough edges are there, and that’s how I wanted it — like you’re in the studio with me.”

After years of pressure, expectations, and being compared to his father, Wolfgang is making it clear: this is his voice, his guitar, his music.

🚨 The End is out October 24 — pre-order now and hear Wolfgang Van Halen like you’ve never heard him before.

Exclusively Van Halen: Wolfgang Kept Frankenstein Safe During LA Wildfires. #vanhalen 10/2/25

Wolfgang Van Halen on A Different Kind of Truth: “The Fact That It Happened at All Is a Miracle”

In a recent interview with Paul Cashmere of Noise11.com, Wolfgang Van Halen reflected on his role in creating A Different Kind of Truth — the final Van Halen album and the band’s first full-length studio release since 1998.

Wolfgang, who joined Van Halen at just 15 years old, played alongside his father Eddie Van Halen from 2006 until the band’s final tour in 2015. He recalled how the 2012 album came together from the ground up:

“It just felt like the right time for Van Halen to release new music,” Wolfgang said. “We’d toured, and the next logical step was to record something. Some of the demos started as early as 2009 — it took years. The fact that the record even happened is kind of a miracle.”

According to Wolfgang, many of the songs were based on unfinished demos from the 1970s, which he discovered and helped bring to life.

“A lot of those ideas were from the band’s early days,” he explained. “It was a great way to get everyone back into that old creative mindset. It was fun — a lot of work, but I’m really proud of what we did.”

Streaming Drama and Band Tensions

The album made headlines again in June 2024 when it finally returned to streaming platforms after nearly two years of being unavailable. In a 2023 interview with Eddie Trunk, Wolfgang revealed the delay stemmed from internal disagreements:

“Some people involved with the record don’t like it,” Wolfgang admitted. “We’ve been trying to get it back up, but it’s not easy. Let’s just say those people were part of the record.”

When Trunk asked if the person “with three initials” — a clear reference to David Lee Roth — was the issue, Wolfgang simply replied, “Probably.”

Shortly after, Roth responded with a tongue-in-cheek YouTube video titled “Family Therapy.” In the skit, he mocked Wolfgang’s frustrations about the album’s streaming issues, even comparing A Different Kind of Truth to Muhammad Ali’s late-career fights, suggesting it wasn’t one of the band’s finer moments.

Wolfgang on Roth, the Band, and His Father’s Legacy

Over the years, Wolfgang has spoken candidly about his limited relationship with Roth:

“We were cordial, but it was very business-related,” he told Rolling Stone. “We were always cool, but we only really saw each other onstage.”

In later interviews, Wolfgang also hinted that Roth’s difficult personality was a major reason why a proposed Eddie Van Halen tribute concert never materialized:

“Some people made it really hard to get anything done when it came to Van Halen,” he said. “The fact that we managed to do three tours, release an album of new material, and a live record — that’s a miracle in itself.”

Wolfgang also set the record straight on how Van Halen operated behind the scenes:

“People love to pin everything on Dad, but Al [Alex Van Halen] was the brain,” he explained. “Dad just wanted to play guitar. The Van Halen philosophy was always: if nothing’s happening, there’s nothing to talk about.”

Eddie Van Halen passed away in October 2020 at age 65, surrounded by family and friends. With the band inactive since its 2015 U.S. tour, A Different Kind of Truth remains a rare and powerful final chapter in Van Halen’s legendary story — and, as Wolfgang says, “a miracle that it even happened at all.”

Quevedo, Aitana x Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike - GRAN VIA x Mammoth (Try It Mashup) (160-150 Bpm)

We’re diving into a brand-new feature where Wolfgang Van Halen opens up about the art of soloing — and the timeless advice he learned from his dad, Eddie Van Halen.

“My dad would say the best solos are the ones you can hum and sing. It’s fun to have shreddiness, but at the end of the day the melody has to come first.” – Wolfgang Van Halen

With three Mammoth WVH albums now under his belt — the latest being The End — Wolfgang has truly proven himself as a formidable guitarist, songwriter, and producer.

We’ll break down highlights from his new MusicRadar interview, including:
🎶 How he composes solos like “little songs” within songs
🎸 Why melody always comes before speed
🔥 The story behind epic solos like “Same Old Song” and “Take A Bow”
🎛️ The one track on The End where he used a whammy bar!
🤘 And why Smells Like Teen Spirit still inspires him today

Plus, we’ll talk about Wolfgang’s recent Rick Beato interview, and his three-episode appearance on Song Cake, where he shares deeper insight into his creative process, tone, and the evolution of Mammoth WVH.

Exclusively Van Halen: Wolfgang Van Halen on the Art of Soloing “Melody Has to Come First”  10/29/25

[Verse]
The mammoth stands where shadows creep
Tusks like rivers carved so deep
Snowy grasslands hum and sigh
Underneath the amber sky

[Chorus]
Woolly dreams in fading light
Ancient echoes take their flight
Through the trees where whispers weave
A frozen tale you won’t believe

[Verse 2]
Lush greens dance with frost’s embrace
Time stands still in this wild place
Heavy steps
A steady drum
Marking where the cold winds hum

[Bridge]
Did it know the world would fade
That the ice would turn to jade
Through the ages lost
It seems
Still it roams in woolly dreams

[Chorus]
Woolly dreams in fading light
Ancient echoes take their flight
Through the trees where whispers weave
A frozen tale you won’t believe

[Verse]
Through snowy plains the mammoth roams
A beast of time
A world it owns
Its tusks like crescent moons they gleam
Caught in the sunset’s golden beam

[Chorus]
Woolly wanderer
Ancient soul
The earth remembers
The stories roll
Through ice and fire
You still remain
A shadow moving through time’s chain

[Verse 2]
The towering trees they bow and sway
To whispers of a colder day
Lush greens and frost
A strange duet
A dance of worlds we won’t forget

[Prechorus]
What secrets lie in your heavy stride
What dreams are buried deep inside

[Chorus]
Woolly wanderer
Ancient soul
The earth remembers
The stories roll
Through ice and fire
You still remain
A shadow moving through time’s chain

[Bridge]
Footsteps press where none now tread
Ghostly echoes of what’s been said
The past it lingers
It doesn’t flee
It roams the snow in memory

Woolly Mammoth
