“The End”. Frenetic two-hand tapping lights the fuse for the track as an equally unpredictable bassline answers in kind. Surrounded by sonic fireworks, he issues an apocalyptically glorious invitation on the refrain, “Take your hand in mine and watch the end with me,” culminating on one last head-spinning solo.

Elsewhere, a palm-muted groove sets “The Spell” in motion. The incisive riff ping-pongs across an off-kilter drumbeat. In the eye of the storm, he assures, “Whatever spell your under, bleeding your wonder, we can work this out.” “It’s a good-feeling song. If you aren’t hip to musical technicality, you can enjoy it. If you’re super into cool riffs and drum fills, those are there too.

“Same Old Song”. In between blinking piano keys, overdriven chords underline an unshakable chant, “Why’d you have to be the same? I think you lost yourself along the way. You sit and sing the same old song like everyone.” “It’s got the classic MAMMOTH fuzzy guitar,” Wolf says. “It’s almost like the sequel to ‘Don’t Back Down’.

“Selfish” goes right for the jugular. Its breakneck drum roll collides into a walloping punch of distortion delivered with the force of an off-the-rails freight train. Meanwhile, Wolf warns, “Because of your selfishness, everything you live for, everything you love will all be gone.” “It’s one of the heavier songs we’ve done,” he notes. “It’s super aggressive. The tempo really ramps up just before this last exhale.”

Expanding the world of MAMMOTH, a piece of art by Moon Patrol adorns the cover, depicting a man on fire.
