. (hennemusic) Prior to the February 7 release of "A Different Kind Of Truth," Van Halen shared video of some interesting interview sessions. Singer David Lee Roth sat down with Eddie and Alex Van Halen to reminisce about their early days together, their original inspirations and family histories, providing fans with an inside look at the formation and growth of one of rock's biggest bands.

Van Halen recently offered up more footage from the sessions: same setup, as the three members chat amongst themselves about a range of topics � this time, in an extended format, clocking in at 15 minutes. "Tone is one of the most important things about this band," offers Roth. "It's one of the things that really separates this band from everybody else in our genre."

"It's our voice," says Eddie. "It's my voice. A lot of it has to do with the way I play � you can't remove it whether you like it or not. Like in the old club days, I remember you guys saying 'why can't you make it sound like the damn record?' I'd go, 'Sorry!'" more on this story
