I can only speak for myself, but I liked Tattoo when I first heard it, but I wasn’t sure how many of my friends would and that was what stressed me out a little  I was certain that leading up to the release that I would get some enjoyment out of the album no matter what it sounded like.  I mean Van Halen has been my favorite band since I firsts heard them in 1982.  However I have to be honest I did not have very high expectations on how good the album was going to be after all these years.

I have to say….I should have my ass kicked for doubting the undisputed kings of rock and roll.

So is A Different Kind of Truth a good album.  No.  It is an amazing album.  I have not stopped listening to this record since I purchased it….and I think I like it a little better with every new listen.  The VH fan dedicated blogs and websites are buzzing with thousands of rapid van halen fans and the general feeling that I am getting is the other fans tend to agree with me.

As a matter of fact there are many VH fans blogging and tweeting that this could quite possibly be the bands BEST ALBUM EVER!

I will say, I love all the VH albums for different reasons and it would be impossible to pick one as my favorite, but right now….ADKOT is my favorite by far.  I will take that one step further.  This album could quite possibly be the best rock album to be released since “Appetite For Destruction”

I strongly suggest you give it a listen.

Oh, and Stay Frosty!
