David Lee Roth " New Van Halen Sessions"!

[Fairwrning]

Um, no it doesn't. A Different Kind Of Turd was an embarrassment to the Van Halen canon and any new offering would only make it worse. Halen 2013 is nothing more than another lame-ass novelty act milking their fans on nostalgia. Fuck them.

Wrong thread..you should be in KISS Bits..

ADKOT was and is awesome..

[Kristy]

A Different Kind Of Turd was boring. The offering was a major letdown.

[sadaist]

Um, no it doesn't. A Different Kind Of Turd was an embarrassment to the Van Halen canon....

Huh? You sure you bought the right album?

[Kristy]

Yes I did, you fascist.

[FORD]

Nah, I think somebody pulled a fast one and stuck the Van Hagar abomination from 2004 in the CD case, if you really thought ADKOT was "an embarrassment".

Now THAT is what I call an embarrassment.

(and yes, Upchuck For Breakfast was even worse, but I can't even post that shit to laugh at it)

[Kristy]

Sorry, but A Different Kind Of Turd is not Van Halen. Lack of Micheal Anthony is one factor, lack of any ideas is another.

[FORD]

Mikey could have been there. He chose not to remove his head from Hagar's cheese-clogged ass.

Truth is, I really don't miss him at all on the record. Now in concert, on the old tunes.... that's a different story

[Kristy]

Exactly. Halen needs to quit dilly-dwalding around hire a decent producer who will kick them in the ass, write fresh songs and move forward instead of riding the gravy train of nostalgia. In fact they put that train right there on the god damn cover. Pathetic.

I thought the 5 completely brand new songs were pretty impressive, all things considered. As far as the old retooled songs go, I think it was a good idea to put to use some of the forgotten riffs that were, in my opinion, about thirty years ahead of their time when they hatched.

If a new CD incorporated both new and old again, I would hope it leans, for the most part, towards the new. The old stuff is young and sexy. I'm not looking for 60 year olds to be something they're not. I'd like to hear them be what they are at this moment in their lives. They can do it, and it wouldn't disappoint.

[Kristy]

We shall see

[Grit]

Wow, "A Different Kind of Truth" was considered a huge success critically and by peers and somebody here calls it an "Embarrassment"? It is an absolutely awesome album that put them up for comeback rocker's of the year, song of the year and a few other considerations. If you didn't like "ADKOT" not sure what you are doing here.

Comparing Dave's vocals from 2007 and 2012 is another thing. I can understand that. I attended a concert in 2007 and was blown away with Dave's vocals, thought they were excellent. I didn't see them this last tour but watched countless youtube videos of the tour. He doesn't sound as good as '07 for the most part, not sure what the issue is. I see some think he destroyed his voice, others have said he doesn't care. Not sure what it is but there is a difference. I still prefer him over Hagar without question but I hope he figures it out.

I look forward to a new cd, and if there is one clunker (TATTOO was mine), so be it.

"No, wait, listen to this...Sammy sucks". Typical change the subject tactic. Doesn't change how bad Dave sings anymore, doesn't make him any easier to watch twirl around on stage. Same weak BS ol' Dave tried when he started saying Robert Plant can't sing anymore, divert the attention but at the same time tacitly admit its true.


Now THAT is what I call an embarrassment. Reiterate, wave hands frantically.

(and yes, Upchuck For Breakfast was even worse, but I can't even post that shit to laugh at it)

And do it again. Bush league.

[FORD]

Back in the pen, Bleater!!

Back in the pen, Bleater!!

Oh FRauD, you funny bitch. Quick and original too!

My God. Your belligerent irreverence is incredibly hot. If I didn't already have 5 wives, I would marry you, too. Don't ever change.

Can't stop thinking about you. Excuse me, now, gotta go to the bathroom.
