The new Van Halen album, "A Different Kind of Truth", is said to be stunningly good by industry insiders.
It hits in full on 2/7, but you can check out the the 1st single, "Tattoo", here and now- https://www.van-halen.com
After spinning the new track several times, to me it's smashing considering how long it's been since the original "six pack" albums.
These guys aren't kids anymore, but the Dave & Eddie magic is undeniable and intact. A sonic Yin/Yang blasted through a stack of Marshalls.
This being the pop'ish single out of the gate gives me great hope for the album cuts to come. Included is a 2012 version of "She's The Woman", a cult classic from the 1976 demo that helped them win the initial Warner Brothers contract (Interscope outbid WB this time around).
If you passionate rockers would be cool enough not to let this thread get bogged down with any war of words over Ed verses Mike Verses Dave verses Sam (Dave era officially sold near 3x more for the record) crap that has been heard ad nauseum since 1984 it would be nice.
Rock on!
