Van Halen didn't really write dark songs. That is one of the aspects of them that made them great. Always fun, full throttle, kick your ass, bang your girlfriend, steal your beer and crash your car type of music. Leave the dark music to the grunge rockers. But as for the darkest song recorded under the name Van Halen, I would say Crossing Over. I know, it's a Hagar song. But it's dark. Dave isn't the right guy for dark. He's always too happy. And why wouldn't he be...he's Diamond David Lee Roth.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”Comment

a dark song isn't just the musical arrangements, it's also the lyrical content and how it melds together with the music that can give the feeling of destruction.
i see where you're coming from though - and would most certainly agree to a point. while van halen has no cookie-cutter dark songs - but dave's lyricks do speak of some pretty "dark" things and eddie....well, he's just eddie. his feelings and how he expresses his feelings is through his fingers, and he is the master of manipulating the guitar to give an audience a desired feeling.
when i hear eddie play, i'm sure some would agree, myself included, that we know exactly what he was feeling when he wrote a particular song. eddie is the best translator on the planet . He doesn't hide anything when he plays - it's 110% throttle all the damn time. i have yet to find another guitar player who can transpose his thoughts through his guitar and out to the audience like he does. I don't get stirred listening to any other guitar player - there's plenty of great guitar players out there - but in this day and age, playing with the fiercness and attack that eddie has - is just gone from today's rock music. that's what rock is missing today. maybe it's just a guitar player's thing lol.
nonetheless, i agree for the most part, 98% of their songs were of the candor you entaled."It seems like 40 days and 40 nights since someone used my first name, including you."Comment
