A new commercial for Van Halen's new album, A Different Kind of Truth, has been airing all this week, and you can watch it below.

A Different Kind of Truth was released this past Tuesday and is expected to become the group's sixth No. 1 album in the U.S. Current projections have the album selling between 180,000 and 200,000 in its first week.

We're still gathering your reader reviews for a special feature next week, so if you've got an opinion, head here and tell us.

The Eddie Van Halen Guitar World Box Set is a limited-edition package that includes all four Guitar World February 2009 issues, each of which has a unique cover photo featuring Eddie Van Halen with a different version of his new EVH Wolfgang guitar. It's available now at the Guitar World Online Store.

Eddie lost his fire some time ago and hasn't got it back. The new disc is just another effort to keep his income high. New CD, EVH guitars, EVH amps... sounds like Eddie went to the Gene Simmons school of sales. Dave's vocals show his age but it is still vintage Van Halen. Not great but not terrible. And Wolfie is no Mikey. I will pass on the CD and concert.
