David Lee Roth has confirmed reports the band’s new album
"A Different Kind of Truth" consists of old material.
Speculation began mounting after Sammy Hagar suggested Roth and Eddie Van Halen were reworking old demos for the album. Now the Roth has provided more details.
Roth told the LA Times: “It’s material that Eddie and I generated in 1975, 1976 and 1977. Usually fellas in our weight division will kind of gamely – or ironically, wink-wink – try to hail back to it, but keep a safe, mature distance from it.”
The band’s reasoning, says the singer, is they know they’re not the men they used to be. “Are there second chances?” he asks. “I’m tending to ‘no.’ We’ve managed to stretch our adolescence like a chiclet to the moon, and maintained the respectful dignities along the way that got us on that turnpike up in the first place.”
