VAN HALEN, ALICE COOPER, BAD RELIGION, HOLE, MACHINE HEAD, DANZIG, ALTER BRIDGE, SISTERS OF MERCY, VERSA EMERGE, THE PRETTY RECKLESS are the final acts confirmed for Australia's Soundwave Revolution travelling festival. This is the first time Van Halen have taken their reunion outside of the US and Canada since David Lee Roth rejoined the band.

Van Halen are currently in the studio with Grammy Award winning producer John Shanks, recording their first album with David Lee Roth in more than 25 years, and their first new music as a band in seven years. Shanks has worked with likes of BON JOVI, FLEETWOOD MAC and STEVIE NICKS, as well as massive pop acts including MILEY CYRUS, BACKSTREET BOYS, ALANIS MORISSETTE and CÉLINE DION.

According to a "trusted source" of the Van Halen News Desk, "the recording process is going great and the band is starting to mix the new tracks. We hear that this fall is the most probable time that the album will be released and a tour will begin."
