"Tattoo", Van Halen's first single off their long-awaited comeback album is now available. Download/preview it here!
The track is the first taste of David Lee Roth's first album with Van Halen since 1984's 'A Different Kind Of Truth.'
To kick off a new year that will feature a world tour and a new album, the band played an exclusive show at the tiny Cafe Wha? in downtown New York last week, their first show together in years. DLR rocked some serious stage moves in some mean rust-coloured overalls, and the guitarwork of the Van Halen clan is as tight as ever, as you can see in this YouTube video.
Understandably, expectations for the new record are sky high. But does the first track live up to them? We say yes.
What do you think of the new Van Halen track?
