    Not sure why you guys rag on 1984 so much. It's an amazing album with phenomenal production. And somehow it went completely mainstream, but maybe that's the problem?

    Diver Down, on the other hand, is by far the weakest release. The production is not good (muddy, no instrument separation, no low end, drums sound terrible), too much filler and there's no intensity. Little Guitars is a top 5 all time fav, but one song can't save an album. I really wish they used the Last Night vocal melodies on Hang Em High, but the song is still great. Other than those two songs, the album does little for me.

    If the band's PR can make the most of this kind of positive support, it might bode well for generating interest in a UK tour ... !
    Glad to see you got in there to reply to that bozo.

    It may be fantastic fun being in Van Halen, but they sure are no fun to listen to.
    would of course be 'Just like you darlin'

    At least I know now I wasn't hallucinating. I knew if any of these guys had gotten a shirt with theirs they would have mentioned it... Thanks!

    Well, down here in Australia...

    Last night, after a long discussion with my good mate ashstralia at stroke of midnight (mainly having good laughs and drinks over singing WARF's "Tattoo" song to ELVIS in The Dump thread), I resisted temptation to download the album and went straight to store next day...

    I just finished listening to it, and without going into any nitty-gritty details over each individual track...I'll simply say that it's close to FAIR WARNING more than the others...

    Folks, IT ROCKS!!!!

    VAN HALEN ARE BACK!!!

    I guess that was around the time when his solo career was at an all time low. Ya know, I don't think Ed would have teamed up with Dave again unless he really needed to. I think after going through Hagar and Cherone he had to give old Dave a call again. The funny thing is there is no doubt Eddie was in denial in regards to Dave's legacy in the band. I remember when Hagar joined they have lots of people fooled that it was still Van Halen but I never bought that crap.

    Hard to say. I have been listening to them all non stop. But I do know so far that:

    Bullethead: Grabs you by the balls! just a great powerful rocker!
    You And Your Blues: Has an insane catchy hook.
    HBSD: So strange and I cant stop replaying this one. Edward is doing some different kind of runs in the end. Almost RR sounding. Fucking love it!!
    Beats Workin: OMFG! Classic sounding Halen. Has a "Feel You Love" Vibe on the chores and that bass riff before and during solo. Epic. That part reminds me of DDL ending.

    uhg..

    So my Good Buddy shared a copy with me... and I may have shit myself but I don't care.

    ALBUM. OF. THE. DECADE.

    NO LESS.

    When that CD arrives tuesday, it's getting ripped and then finding a permanent home in my car's cd changer!

    I can honestly say that for the first time in such a long time that I am actually experiencing JOY.

    The way dave sings in You and Your Blues is fucking amazing.

    Cant say ive ever felt this good about spending money on a CD in my LIFE. The last time I was this excited, I was 13 and receiving a big ass PEAVEY amp for xmas.

    Time for an analogy...and a story..

    long time ago I had a nifty little car.. it was a Shelby CSX - a turbo DODGE. Nice little hatchback. I had a gigantic intercooler in that thing and beefy injectors; stuffed 22 PSI into that 2.2L. One day while returning from the beach with my (then) girlfriend, we came to a stop light and lo and behold, a staunchy looking old guy in a Honda S2000 with a chick lookin young enough to be his grandaugther riding shotgun. Light turns green and he guns it.. no contest. I blew his fucking doors off.

    He spent the rest of the trip alongside me well, not really alongside as much as maintaining a FAR distance.

    This album is a sleeper. Who could have possibly expected these washed up hacks to produce this FUCKING STELLAR MASTERPIECE? If I were spambo I'd just crawl under a fucking ROCK because he's been RUINED.

    The delusional one will still tell the world he's better though.. just wait for it

    Wow.

    It's rock and roll, blues and sludgy metal and heavy metal all in once and yet 110% VAN HALEN.

    And listening to this fuckin album sure beats workin

    I can only wonder what distracting shenanigans your mod work involves, Sesh - but that that is ... a gnomic utterance, if not ... even ... Delphic. But, hey, fuck the ancient mythology crap - this is VH. I'm cool with it, man.

    I had to listen to it on You Tube, I could not handle it anymore, I broke. ....Although I feel bad about it, almost like I blew my wad on a hot ass chick before I stuck it in. Oh well, I will still buy my CD when the time comes and listen to it like its the first time.

    Dude, you brought me back.

    I sold my 1987 Turbo-T. 21-22lbs of boost in my intercooled 3.8L, man those were fun times.

    I wish I never sold it, I could be kickin' in that car crankin' VFH!!!

    NO LESS.

    When that CD arrives tuesday, it's getting ripped and then finding a permanent home in my car's cd changer!

    I can honestly say that for the first time in such a long time that I am actually experiencing JOY.

    The way dave sings in You and Your Blues is fucking amazing.

    Cant say ive ever felt this good about spending money on a CD in my LIFE. The last time I was this excited, I was 13 and receiving a big ass PEAVEY amp for xmas.

    Time for an analogy...and a story..

    long time ago I had a nifty little car.. it was a Shelby CSX - a turbo DODGE. Nice little hatchback. I had a gigantic intercooler in that thing and beefy injectors; stuffed 22 PSI into that 2.2L. One day while returning from the beach with my (then) girlfriend, we came to a stop light and lo and behold, a staunchy looking old guy in a Honda S2000 with a chick lookin young enough to be his grandaugther riding shotgun. Light turns green and he guns it.. no contest. I blew his fucking doors off.

    He spent the rest of the trip alongside me well, not really alongside as much as maintaining a FAR distance.

    Say what you will about the Vegas trip, the state fairs, the radio show, and every other left-hand turn he made with his career. The entire time he was away from Van Halen, the guy kept working his ass off and keeping his name out there. You never had to wonder where he was or what he was up to for too long, especially when the summertime came around. He always had something going.
    He was going to keep fighting until the Dutchies finally came to their senses, no matter how fucking long it was gonna take.

    When he says "told ya' I was comin' back", it's impossible not to raise your glass and salute that.

    Look at it this way, dude. There's a DVD and liner notes to enjoy on Tuesday.

    If the fucking DVD contents don't go viral by then..

    When he says that in Blood & Fire, it raises the hairs on my arm. The song is too cool and the lyrics so true.

    The guy never packed it in. God Bless you Dave, they only made one of you. One of a kind!!!

    Should I post the liner notes and ruin it for him, or would I get in trouble ?

    As Is is a beast!!!.....Holy shit.....Honeybabysweetiedoll will swallow you up and spit you out in another dimension....what a bad ass, powerful, groove.....almost can't describe the sound on that tune....has to be heard. Bullethead is just downright mean and has the same lyrical fury of Atomic Punk....Outta space is a steamroller....Stay frosty has not one but two kick ass guitar solos and a monster, old school kick ass drawn out VH ending, Big River and Beats Working have these catchy as fuck almost 1970's sounding choruses, Blood and fire and trouble with never are both incredible as most of us here already have heard the full tunes, She's the woman rocks just as hard as it always has, China Town will tear your face off, you and your blues is a solid, well written rock and roll tune.....the biggest surprise about that tune was watching the dvd.....the downtown session version of you and your blues is fuckin incredible.....Wolf can sing his balls off...speaking of downtown session....classic Diamond Dave....that's all I can say....he tells a story or two and one that was especially funny. Tattoo is tattoo....I have no problem with it at all....This album will kick your ass.....fuckin VH....unbelievable.....

    I think his only low for me was his Filthy Mouth tour. The band was lame in so many ways !! Dave forgot who he was !! I did like some of that album. Hell even in his book he admited it wasn't his best. I don't mind he tried the Vegas thing. He had balls doing that. His look was stupid. I remember him on Jay Leno going really ?? Hell Ed said the same thing and brought him in for the 96 tunes so that was a good move on Ed's part for Dave. His band with Brian Young was fantastic just before the VH reunion.
