It is the band's first album of completely new material since 1998's Van Halen III, as well as the first since 1984's 1984 to feature David Lee Roth on lead vocals, and the first to feature Wolfgang Van Halen on bass guitar. It is also Van Halen's first album on their new label Interscope Records.
Some of the songs are based on demos and unrecorded lyrics done by the band in the 1970's. For instance, "She's the Woman" was on the 1976 demo that warranted Van Halen a deal with Warner Bros. Records. The new version of this song (featuring new melody and lyrics, middle section and solo) was played in its entirety at the band's intimate press show at the Cafe Wha? on January 5, 2012.
