Does Van Halen have a new album prepped and ready to go for 2013? Melodicrock.com reported a rumor that when the band recorded this year's A Different Kind Of Truth album they actually recorded enough material for its followup. The rumored album could feasibly see release during the first quarter of next year as a tie-in for the next leg in Van Halen's tour.

 

Van Halen has been sidelined following Eddie Van Halen's intestinal surgery in September. The band came off the tour midway through their summer tour and is expected back on the road sometime in 2013.
