Numbered Limited Edition UD1S
180g 45RPM 2LP SuperVinyl Box Set
NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION OF 5,000
• Van Halen Taps into a Mean Streak on Fair Warning: The Darkest and Fiercest Album of the Band’s Career Includes “Unchained” and “So This Is Love?”
• Double-Platinum 1981 Record Sounds Unrelenting on Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set: Immediate, Dynamic Reissue Is Pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl
The song titles on Van Halen's aptly titled Fair Warning don't lie. The likes of 'Unchained,' 'Mean Street,' 'Push Comes to Shove,' 'One Foot Out the Door,' and more indicate the mood the band channels on it's 1981 record. It's the nastiest, darkest, and fiercest album of the group's storied career. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen uses the forceful arrangements as a playground for his seemingly unlimited arsenal. Supported by a crack rhythm section and an inspired David Lee Roth, he performs with an almost impossible combination of punk-like intensity, technical finesse, lyrical fluidity, and unbridled emotion. For the fourth time in four years, Van Halen threw down the gauntlet to all challengers and emerged victorious. Mastered from the original analog tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited and numbered, Mobile Fidelity's UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set sounds the alarm with unfettered clarity, dynamics, and immediacy.
