Van Halen Track-By-Track Album Review :
"Blood & Fire" -
opens up with eddie van halen introducing the song with some clean guitar then David Lee Roth comes in and all I thought was uh oh is this going to be another disliked van halen song.. but I was glady wrong!
This song is classic Van Halen with a little modern twist to it. Eddie's guitar sounds a little different on this track then some of the other new songs. The chorus is much better then the chorus in "Tattoo". At the 2:40 point Eddie comes in with what could be the best Guitar solo on the entire album "A Different Kind of Truth".
"Bullethead" -
It looks like this is the track they got their album title from as they say, "You got A Different Kind of Truth". It is another fast passe up tempo rockin' song with some more amazing EVH guitar! Which is what we were looking for! It has got some classic Dave singing with him singing "Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bullethead". This song has another rippin' solo by EVH! This is very old school Van Halen and it is another great Van Halen song to add to your collection.
"As Is" -
This is a slower song on the album. It starts with a very funny count in then comes in with Alex pounding on the drums with a neat affect on the drums then into Eddie playing in a really heavy tuning with some awesome guitar squealing! The intro kind of remind me of their song "Everybody Wants Some". Then it really kicks in and it is a beautiful song! hero by the foo fighters
"Honeybabysweetiedoll" -
This is a very interesting song. It had some weird guitar sounds and effects in it that blows your mind! It has a feel in it like "Strung Out" did. It has a very Vivian Campbell sounding riff in it! It sounds really cool! Seems like Ed really experimented with guitar sounds on this song.
"The Trouble with Never" -
This song opens up with Eddie playing this amazing riff and then in to The Chorus which is very catchy. This is a perfect song for David Lee Roth to sing in my opinion. David kind of sounds like Paul Stanley at some parts in this song.
In around the half way point in the song Eddie starts up his guitar solo and it is absolutely unbelievable. Eddie really impressed me on this track.
So, after the some David does some spoken word stuff with wolfgang playing bass over it then Eddie come back in with a some sick heavy guitar riffs. This song was a big highlight on the album.
"Outta Space" -
This is another upbeat song. I could first tell the guitar riff was from a old demo of there's called, Let's Get Rockin'. The riff's are classic old school EVH on this song and it sounds great! EVH also has another amazing guitar solo in this one! This song has a very good chorus that - like usual for Van Halen songs - gets stuck in your head. If you want a little preview of this song check out their Demo Let's Get Rockin because it sounds a lot like that song but obviously with different lyrics and a much different vocal approach to the song.
"Stay Frosty" -
This song is amazing! It is almost like a part 2 of "ice cream man". It starts acoustic guitar with Dave's bluesy singing and then the songs EXPLODES! Eddie is absolutely spectacular in this song! There are solo's all over the place in this song! It is the perfect Van Halen song!!
Big River -
Right when I heard the guitar intro I knew this was Van Halen's really old demo called, Big Trouble. The riff in this song is really awesome! Then comes a another sick Guitar solo from Ed! This is prime VH! This is another song that Wolfgang really stands out in!
Beat's Workin -
This is a perfect ending to the album! It is the longest song clocking in at 5 minuets. The beginning sounds like it is a ACDC song. The riff's are amazing in it! The bass line in it is very well written as well! The dynamics in this song are perfect! This song ends the album so perfectly that you think to your self... WOW THAT WHOLE ALBUM WAS UNBELIEVABLE!
In conclusion we are so so so so so soooo happy that Van Halen wrote this new album for the fans and not to get hits on the radio! This album is going to be huge! The production on this entire album is amazing. The whole album is perfect old school Van Halen with a modern twist! This will really please all Van Halen fans! Dave is amazing on this album and it is a great come back Van Halen album for him! Eddie is also spectacular on this album!
Rating: 9/10
Go out and buy the album on February 7th 2012!!!!
