4. "China Town"
5. "Blood and Fire"
6. "Bullethead"
7. "As Is"
8. "Honeybabysweetiedoll"
9. "The Trouble with Never"
10. "Outta Space"
11. "Stay Frosty"
12. "Big River"
13. "Beats Workin'"
Personally I really like "Honeybabysweetiedoll". Starts out like Primus/Frank Zappa and morphs into classic VH! It reminds me of Dave with this...with the main riff..
I really hope this finds it's way onto the playlist for the tour! Wolfie carries the water for stretches and it made me grab my own bass to try to play along. Dave's scream right before Eddie takes off...yeah!
My 2nd fave is "The Trouble With Never"...ever any doubt that Wolfie can play and sing...this song CRUSHES the myth that the Open E-String Diddler was an integral part! The part where Dave does this growl singing and Eddie playing like a man possessed with a Hendrix "Crosstown Traffic" inspired riff-fest! Top it with Alex beating the snot in PERFECT time...I put it to a metronome...LOL!
1-800-TELL ME!!!!
Which ones are your faves!!!

Considering the album hasn't been released in the Statesyet you may have to wait for some responses, Doc.

Yet another fave of mine...listen to Wolfie...anyone STILL a fan of the pedestrian bassist that WAS in Van Halen?
At the 2:44 mark through the rest of the song...GO BOY GO!!!!!
WOLF...WOLF...WOLF!!!!!
I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way!
My ears are a mess because of all the eargasms!
I'm a spark on the horizon!

Songs I Love:
Blood and Fire, Bullethead, She's The Woman, Outta Space, Stay Frosty, You and Your Blues, Big River, The Trouble With Never
The OK ones:
Chinatown, As Is, Beats Workin', HoneyBabySweetieDoll, Tattoo
I love it I think it's great!
My favorites are Blood and Fire and As Is. There isn't a track on the album that I don't like. My least favorite is Honeybabysweetiedoll. I don't mind the song at all, but the damn Whammy pedal Ed is playing throughout gets on my nerves. Put that thing away!
Current Faves are "As is", "Blood and Fire", "You and Your Blues" and especially "Stay Frosty". I'm finding this album really grows on ya!
Maybe next week will bring different faves!
The Trouble with Never
(also like Blood and Fire and (yes, I know, I know) Tattoo)
“You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear. ”
"Blood and Fire" is the only one I don't like, except for the part where Dave says "Told ya I'd be back..."
I'm a spark on the horizon!
what is it that you don't like about it?
(not ragging on you...just curious...)
“You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear. ”
To these ears, it sounds like they were bored and uninspired. Can't stand it when a band doesn't sound like they're having a good time.
