Man, this is sounding promising. Maybe, just maybe my comment yesterday about vaporware will be shown unfounded. Guitarist Mark Tremonti, formerly of Creed (though sounds like there may be a reunion there at some point) and now Alter Bridge, got the chance to hear all the instrumentals from the forthcoming Van Halen album at 5150 studios. I’m jealous, and hoping the album is getting closer to having a release date. Let’s hope it’s a 2011 date.
He had a couple of interesting tidbits in that they tried to utilize unused bits from the original Roth-era run, so the music sounds like old school Van Halen. Can’t wait to hear it—good or bad, but it sure is sounding like it’s going to be good.
