By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 11 August 2010
Van Halen have announced that they are recording a new album, the follow-up to 1998’s ‘Van Halen III’, and their first LP with original vocalist Dave Lee Roth since 1983’s ‘1984’.
Last week it was announced that the band had renewed their publishing contract with Warner/Chappell, with the company’s president Scott Francis saying in a statement: “It’s fantastic to continue our relationship with Van Halen, which is one of the most enduring and successful partnerships within our roster of songwriters. Since its inception, Van Halen has written driving melodic rock songs performed in groundbreaking style”.
Now, according to Billboard, the band have confirmed that they are currently in the studio recording an album with Roth that is due for release in 2011.
