Van Halen’s Osaka tour recordings have arrived!
The long-awaited Japan tour supporting their new album, *A Different Kind of Truth*—created following the return of original frontman David Lee Roth—finally became a reality. This release features a complete recording of both Osaka shows (June 24th and the tour finale on the 26th) from that 2013 Japan tour, which marked the first time in 33 years that the two frontmen from the band's golden era shared the stage. The audio quality is superb, offering immense power and a vivid, immersive atmosphere.

Dave’s vocals and Eddie’s guitar sound incredibly realistic! The dynamic, heavy, and powerful low-end—a sound experience you won't find elsewhere—is absolutely awesome. There are no annoying crowd chatter or ear-splitting screams to distract you. Furthermore, the release benefits from the meticulous mastering characteristic of the Sylph label, ensuring a top-tier listening experience that is guaranteed to get you fired up. No detailed explanation of the concert is needed! It is a blissful two-hour parade of masterpieces, featuring a setlist that blends early hits from Dave’s original tenure with tracks from their latest album. The performances are thoroughly satisfying, with Dave’s vocals showing no signs of aging and Eddie’s guitar work sounding as brilliant as ever. You’ll also enjoy Dave’s witty Japanese stage banter—a testament to his love for Japan.

With a fantastic stage setup and a perfect setlist, the band delivers an energetic performance from start to finish; this is an absolute must-listen for any fan. The Sylph label presents a must-have memorial item that vividly brings back the emotion and excitement—featuring stunning cover art (complete with obi strip) and superb sound quality.
