"Atomic Punk" - Van Halen

by Max on Mon 04 Aug 2008 12:51 PM PDT | Permanent Link

All it took was for my brother to bring home a copy of Van Halen (1978). After that, all bets were off.

Yes, it has "Runnin' With the Devil", that Kinks cover and that "Eruption" solo that some guitarists actually make fun of today. But I've always been partial to "Atomic Punk."

Man, I can't even imagine trying to scream like that. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH (cough) (cough) (hack) aw crap, I'm never doing that again.

Hear "Atomic Punk" on YouTube

This is part of a week-long series on David Lee Roth-era Van Halen.

Introduction

Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.

Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas.
