Wolfgang Van Halens MAMMOTH teilen ihren, an ”From Dusk Till Dawn” angelehnten Kurzfilm zum neuen Song `The End`. Die Ähnlichkeit ist kein Zufall, den verantwortlich für das Horrovideo zeichnet sich nemand Geringeres als der erfolgreiche Regisseur Robert Rodriguez. Dazu gibt es noch Gastauftritte von Danny Trejo, Slash, Myles Kennedy und Valerie Bertinelli im Video zu sehen.
Wolfgang sagt Van Halen über `The End`:
„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“

Lyrics:
Wake up
Open up your tired eyes
It’s way down
Burning up inside
Fade out
All of the surrounding noise and
Stand tall
Now is not the time for burning out
Break me out of this
Here we are ignoring it
Take your hand in mine and
Watch the end with me
No love
Bleeding out and bleeding over
No trust
Who are you to me?
Too loud
Blind to all the ins and outs
You’re too proud
How? I’ll never-
How? I’ll never know
Break me out of this
Here we are ignoring it
Take your hand in mine and
watch the end with me
Watch it end with me
Break me out of this
Here we are ignoring it
Take your hand in mine and
Watch the end and…
Break me out of this
Here we are ignoring it
Take your hand in mine and
Watch the end with me
