Hard rock legends Van Halen experienced their biggest commercial and critical successes from the late-1970s to the mid-1980s under the frontmanship of the charismatic, energetic goofball of a lead singer that was David Lee Roth. But interpersonal tensions would lead to Roth's dismissal from the group in 1985. Further success was achieved via his replacement, Sammy Hagar, who would also be ejected from the band in 1996 due to more infighting. After a false start in achieving a reunion with Roth, they instead turned to Gary Cherone, the former frontman of glam metal-turned-groove rock band Extreme, to helm the wayward group.

The lone album Van Halen cut with Cherone, 1998's Van Halen III was a marked departure from the band's typical sound, containing a heavier emphasis on experimentation, and balladry far removed from their hard-rocking party-centric style up to that point. Fans and critics were not having it, and the record suffered from poor commercial sales and even poorer reviews, to the point where touring attendance suffered, leaving Cherone to exit the band in shame, and Van Halen to go on an extended hiatus until 2003.

On this episode of Jukebox Zeroes Lilz & Patrick team up with rapper, radio-man, and Van Halen expert D-Tension to slog through Van Halen III for themselves. Join them as they wade through the depths of Eddie Van Halen's ego, to decide whether this record is best left buried, or deserving of a fairer shake.
