    China Town 90 second clip

    Think you guys are gonna like this. Sounds like Van Halen meets Iron Maiden. Sounds like Dave singing about gang wars in China Town. I FUCKING love what heard so far...

    Forgive me moderators if I put in wrong place. I'm just so stoked and wanted share with Army members ASAP.

    There is a touch of NWOBHM going on there but the little rhythmic embellishments stop it from being derivative.

    There is a type of Van Halen fan who will fucking love this...

    Cut to visual of Joe scutching away from Sammy.

    "It's been real. It's been fun, but it hasn't been real fun." Then bolts down the street with his Ibanez in hand.

    No WAY can Sam deny that this CD is going to paste his sorry ass.

    That is the killing side of CVH.

    After hearing that, I have been inspired to hit Mrs binnie this weekend as though my life - and all of yours - depended on it.

    I hate to evoke Sam's name again while were basking in the glory of new "ass kicking" Van Halen music but if this doesn't stop him from making snide remarks about the band nothing will. We still have, what? 8 or 9 more tracks to hear and already this record is shaping up to be better than expected.

    If that's anything similar to the Jenna Jameson speaker scene in Private Parts being viewed in fast forward, all I can say is... can I watch?

    Wow!
    Gotta admit this is the first one to grab me right out of the gates.

    Played it for some co-workers that were lukewarm for the other previews and they said "now THIS is Van Halen!"

    Just...... wow....

    Ha!

    So far and I'm 100% sure I'll feel the same way once I hear the whole album.......it's like they picked up where they left off on 1984.
