One of the biggest revelations of 2021? That there’s a trove of unreleased Van Halen music sitting in a vault.
That tidbit came from ex-frontman Sammy Hagar, who back in August claimed that the band worked on a few songs that never made it to a record.
He told Ultimate Classic Rock “One was kind of a midtempo ballad-y ‘Can’t Stop Loving You’ kind of song. The other one was a heavy ‘Poundcake’ rocker kind of thing“.
Both Hagar and Michael Anthony have suggested they’ll dig up the unreleased tunes sometime soon – but it hasn’t happened so far.
Do you think these songs will ever see the light of day? What’s your favorite ‘era’ of Van Halen?
