Wolfgang Van Halen clearly has a lot of musical influences in his life, but one band was a huge inspiration for the upcoming Mammoth album.

In fact, one of Van Halen’s favorite bands is Meshuggah.

“I know — nothing like Mammoth,” Van Halen said in a recent interview. “On the next album, there actually is some Meshuggah-inspired stuff. Through the lens of Mammoth though, so not as super heavy.”

As fans eagerly wait for the next Mammoth WVH album, the band tweeted the date “03.22.23” on Monday which people are guessing is the release date for new music.

How do you think Meshuggah will influence this next album’s sound? What do you think the next era of Mammoth WVH will be like? Share your opinions on 107.7 The Bone’s Facebook or Twitter page.
