Trouble is, as a lyricist, Cherone too often speaks from the head, not the heart, filling the album with political cant that is dry and ill-suited to the band's party-hearty image. Worse, Cherone sounds disconcertingly like Hagar, giving 3 the uncomfortable feel of a tribute album. And while Eddie Van Halen's guitar still mows down anything in sight on tracks like \"Neworld\" and \"From Afar,\" it's difficult to excuse his new-agey keyboard epic \"How Many Say I,\" or his tentative lead vocal on the track. In a rare instance for a great band, it's one step forward, two steps back. --Daniel Durchholz Product Description Perhaps a little confusingly, Van Halen III is the eleventh studio album by the legendary hard rock band. Less confusing than the name are the songs: the sort of hard-hitting, powerful, straight-forward rock and roll that Van Halen is known for and that the amazing album cover-a man being shot point-blank by a cannon-implies. Featuring vocalist Gary Cherone, the band's third official singer and the reason for the III, this is another stalwart entry in the band's incredible legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 093624666226\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0093624666226\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45960562442274,"sku":"SG-403N-1UUP","price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51gLKMDsOWL_331996b4-54b3-47ae-aa81-a06d9d892d03.jpg?v=1783636234","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/van-halen-van-halen-iii-cd","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
