This might have been posted before but according to RollingStone.com:

"When we look back at Van Halen's career, we see a whole lot of spandex, hair dye and mincing singers -- making it something of a surprise that they're upset about folks confusing them with an openly gay hip-hop crew known as VIP. The kings of hair replacement metal have filed suit against the latter group, claiming that the logo used on their recent Mad Coke disc is too similar to the one that's adorned just about every Van Halen disc for the last century or so. No word as to how the matter will be handled, but since Eddie and his pals seem to need a new singer every couple of years, we think some sort of merger might be in order . . ."

Oh, thank you Panamark. I've been searching all around the web for that logo and think the EP in question has been taken out of commission completely.
