This is arguably the heaviest album they've ever done. It definitely sounds like Wolf influenced Ed go the heavy route (half the album is in drop D or lower). "As Is" is without a doubt the heaviest track they've ever done.

Outta Space, China Town & Bullethead have opening riffs that just make you wanna stand up and kick some ass.

Stay Frosty is basically Ice Cream Man 2012, only heavier.

The track that surprised me the most was Honeybabysweetiedoll. It's the only track on the album where Ed's using a Sustainer & he puts it to awesome use (not like the 2004 tour where he'd just flick it on for noise.)

With Dave back in the band, this will be their best since 1984 (5150, OU812 and For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge were OK, but were still not my favorites and I'm not even a huge fan of the Hagar-era).
For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge is just as good as any of the DLR albums.

This is my Exact Opinion on A Different Kind of Truth.

I thought the only songs that disappointed me were "Stay Frosty" and "Tattoo".

But I'm currently in my second play-though of the album, and it's definitely growing on me.

"She's The Woman" sounds like it could've been on VH II, and that's a very good thing.

Yeah, Dave isn't hitting the highest of notes any more and there's scarce moments of "wow!" in what Eddie's playing, but it's just great to hear the (mostly) real Van Halen again.

They're the gold standard of good time hard rock, and A Different Kind Of Truth is proving to be a solid continuation of that legacy.

This album IMMEDIATLY turned me back into that 15 year old having "guitargasms", and instantly reminded me why I was so enthralled by this band (fronted by DLR that is) years ago. Eddie - the GOD of guitar - plays just as AMAZING as he always did pre-Hagar years and even does some unexpected things I've never even heard a guitar do. Alex is still the thundering backbone, along with Wolfgang, who's basslines are instantly comparable to Anthony's (though missing the insanely high backing vocals, but oh well... Chickenfoot has those, and anyone can tell that has done nothing to make that band not suck). And then there's Diamond Dave. A lot of people have been complaining about his singing, but I don't know why. He's just as fun and entertaining to listen to as he always was, focusing more on the soul and groove of the singing than the technical aspects of being a "good singer", which is always welcome in this day and age of pop and auto tune in the mainstream.

The thing that this album has that all other DLR albums had and the Hagar albums didn't (and most other bands of this genre in general) is their willingness to be weird and not take themselves too seriously (something The Darkness have always done, which is why I am still able to listen to them). Songs like "Stay Frosty" immediatly bring to memory "Big Bad Bill" or "Ice Cream Man" or "Happy Trails" or any of those "different" songs (of which every album had atleast 1).

Overall I was completely blown away by this album, my expectations far exceeded, and while there was certainly little "new ground" explored on this album, this feels more like "Van Halen III" than that album EVER did... Which is nothing to be ashamed of!

I'm not a Hagar hater or anything, but IMO this album sounds better than those few songs he did with VH a few years ago and most of the Chickenfoot stuff as well.

Tattoo sounds nothing like AiC. Tattoo is bad. AiC is great. The rest of the album is pretty good though. Particularly "As Is."

I have to laugh at some of the newspaper reviews too, because everyone of them that I have read, really good or really bad, seem to be written by someone never knowing Van Halen existed with Roth. They are all looking for VH to be more of the pop style with Hagar, than hard rock style of Roth.

I don't think VH did a great job marketing the songs either. Tattoo isn't horrible, but compared to some of the heavier tracks like China Town, Outta Space, Bullethead, etc, it wasn't the best song to fully release first. Even the 30 second previews didn't do a lot of songs justice. Based on the previews, I thought Honeybabysweetiedoll was going to be an instrumental.

My take on the album:

Tattoo - An OK song. I actually think it has some of the better thought out lyrics of the tracks. I prefer the heavier songs, and as a first song when released, I was a bit disappointed overall.

She's the Woman - Even though Mikey said this was a song before he was even in the band, it really sounds like it would fit in on Fair Warning. A killer bass line from Wolf and drums from Al. Vocals are ok, a bit too much of Dave's shtickish voice in parts.

You and Your Blues - More of a pop song type of chorus. Not a really strong song for me.

China Town - Killer intro, killer solo, fast and shredding song. Lyrics aren't too bad either.

Blood and Fire - Sounds like a left over from Diver Down, similar to Little Guitars. More of a pop style song, but it works for this song.

Bullethead - This sounds like what it is: hard and fast straight from the club days.

As Is - Big drums and heavy guitar, modified "Two Burritos and a Rootbeer float" through the verse.

Honeybabysweetiedoll -

The Trouble with Never - This is the weakest song on the album in my opinion. Roth's voice is just all over the place with the shtick. It's more pop than rock. The music is ok, but not enough to overcome Roth's singing on this one.

Outta Space - Another killer, fast and heavy track. Al's got some nice beats in this one. Probably one of Roth's better songs vocally because he's singing and not talking through the song.

Stay Frosty - Pretty much as other's have described...a song very similar in style to Ice Cream Man that starts with just Roth on accoustic and and rest a band kicks in a minute into the song. The song grows on ya after awhile.

Big River - One of the better songs overall, because Roth's vocals are tight and can keep up with the strength of the music.

Beats Workin' - This sounds like a song from another band. Grooving verse, into a more pop type chorus.

Musically, the band blew it out of the water. Roth is obviously the weak link in songs. Some songs he has it, some songs he's ok, and some songs are just too much shtick. But, there are enough fast, heavy, rocking songs to overcome the sometimes suspect singing/lyrics of Roth.

Some highlights from this old meets new fantastic disc of heavy and hard VH rock are:

"She's the Woman"... the boys re-worked this a fair amount from the Simmons demo. The verses and chorus's are now worthy of a number 1 hit. It's in-your-face classic VH with a modern production sound. "You and Your Blues has a killer bridge and chorus, with terrific backing vocals by Wolfgang (whom is a better bass player than Michael Anthony). "Chinatown" SMOKES! With music taken from Ed's instrumental "Ripley", Roth lays down the coolest lyrics and those classic hook laden melodies on "Blood and Fire". It's an instant VH classic! "As Is" takes it's cues from Woman and Children First meets 1984 meets the year 2012...it's a blast. And "Stay Frosty" is an updated, super-energized, "Ice Cream Man" meets "Hot for Teacher" hard-rockin boogie.

All in all, anybody that loves VH will be thrilled with this. Anybody that doesn't like it...I have ZERO tolerance for you. Ed re-invented the electric guitar, and I welcome back the king!

you'd be surprised how amazing the rest of the album is. tattoo is shit. the rest of the songs sound like you would expect a DLR Van Halen album to sound. so happy with this album. it's definitely the best thing VH has put out since 1984. tattoo doesn't even belong on this album.

Having said that, this is like the perfect balance between both camps. Some of the songs are old demos from the band's golden years with DLR that have been tweaked to sound more modern. As far as lyrics go, did you really expect DLR to sing diatribes on the socioeconomic status of the world, or whatever? Please, the guy almost always comes up with nonsense; it's all about his delivery, which I gotta say is pretty good considering his age.

I gotta say that I love this album already. It's the album that could have followed 1984 if DLR had stayed in the band. It really is that good. I haven't heard EVH solo and riff like this since those early albums. Seriously, the man is almost going on 60 and he makes most of us sound like chumps.

Welcome back guys.

Step 1.
Play any song from Van Halen 2 and then play She's The Woman!

Step 2. Get some really good headphones and listen to Honeybabysweetiedoll and tell me if it doesnt kick your ass!!!

Step 3. Listen To China Town and then try not to get it stuck in your head! China Tooooowwwn!

People That are disappointed with the previews should really buy the album so it can prove you wrong! I was somewhat disappointed when i heard some of the previews but they previews dont do the album justice!!!

Get metal back on the charts and kick adele off of the #1 Spot!!! BUY THIS ALBUM!!!

I guess people are no longer allowed to have an opinion, as soon as someone even utters a word of this album not being good everyone downvotes it.



Come on man. You knew it was coming as soon as you posted it.
