This week on Kerrang! In Conversation, we’re joined in the studio by Wolfgang Van Halen, who kindly battled his way through the worst traffic he’s ever seen to meet us.

Sitting down with K! Editor Luke Morton at Nando’s Studio in central London, Wolfgang reflects on his life in rock’n’roll – from growing up around his father’s music to heading out and forging his own path to playing at the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame and the Oscars.

Wolfgang also shares his experiences with anxiety and panic attacks, how they informed the new Mammoth album, and the joy of making one a horror-inspired music video.
