Back in November, Wolfgang Van Halen – son of Eddie and former Van Halen bassist – announced the formation of his solo band, Mammoth WVH, and released the group's first single, "Distance."

A moving, propulsive rocker dedicated to his late father, the song was an immediate success, rising as high as No. 9 on Billboard's Rock charts.

Now, the band has finally announced the details of their long-awaited debut album. Featuring Wolfgang Van Halen handling all vocal and instrumental duties, the self-titled LP is set for a June 11 release via EX1 Records/Explorer1 Music Group.

You can check out its second single, "You're to Blame," below.

Though Van Halen alone appears on Mammoth WVH, he'll be joined – for live Mammoth WVH performances – by guitarists Frank Sidoris and Jon Jourdan, bassist Ronnie Ficarro, and drummer Garrett Whitlock.

Mammoth WVH is available for pre-order now in a number of formats: including digital, autographed CD, exclusive color vinyl, and more.
