Fresh from a glorious Apex Stage set at Download Festival, and ahead of their UK shows with Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe, Mammoth WVH have unleashed an epic new single.

The track – Take A Bow – is taken from the band’s upcoming second album Mammoth II, which is due out on August 4 via BMG. Explaining why this latest preview from the LP is just so special, mainman Wolfgang Van Halen shares: “It was the last song we finished. It’s officially the longest song I’ve released to date, and I feel the guitar solo is really special.

“I played the solo on the original Frankenstein guitar and through dad’s [Eddie Van Halen] original Marshall head and one of the original cabinets. It’s straight-up what he used on the earliest Van Halen records. It makes me happy to capture some of dad’s history on this song forever.”
