Want to be a fan. Want to like it. Not a fan. Don't like it. I don't hate it, but there are way too many interesting groups doing new and good stuff out there. I found this to be pretty simplistic and the video is shot and edited in such a way as to hide so many things… black and white, quick cuts, and constant motion. If I want to listen to Van Halen, I'll go back and break out the old CD's (read, MP3 collection). My first impression, you can't reanimate the dead. A zombie is never going to be the one you loved. 🙁
Thanks to +Charles Samples for sending me the video earlier.

David Lee Roth is back !!! The original "Garage Bander" Used to listen to him in his Garage
The original version("in flames") is much better.
+Kyle McBride Not familiar…
"in flames" is the tune from the demos for the 1st album that has been morphed into "tattoo". I posted it if you want to check it out.
Love to take a listen… throw a link over?
Van Halen – Down In Flames
Hm. Not a great sign to be recycling already and from that far back… in my opinion. 😉 I agree, I like Down in Flames more.
Among other things, "tattoo" is missing the classic Mike Anthony backing vocals.
