Mammoth (formerly known as Mammoth WVH) pulled out all the stops for the music video for their new single, "The End". Director Robert Rodriguez ('Sin City', 'Desperado') was hired on to oversee this clip, which features a big nod to the latter's classic 1996 vampire film 'From Dusk Till Dawn', as well as tip of the hat to Michael Jackson's landmark video for 'Thriller'. Helping to realize this vision, Greg Nicotero ('The Walking Dead', 'Fallout') handled the various special makeup effects.
The video is also littered with cameos, including actor Danny Trejo, Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash and Wolfgang's own mother Valerie Bertinelli. Speaking of the song, Wolfgang offered:
"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."
