Rock legends Van Halen release a brand new 2023 remaster of their album OU812 alongside their deluxe box set The Collection 2, a celebration of the band's second incarnation with singer Sammy Hagar, guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alex Van Halen, and bassist Michael Anthony. The album was mastered directly from the original master tapes by Bernie Grundman, and by the band’s longtime engineer, Donn Landee.
OU812 (pronounced "Oh You Ate One Too") is the eighth studio album by American rock band Van Halen, released in 1988. Van Halen began work on the album in September 1987 and completed it in April 1988, one month before its release.
Like its predecessor 5150, OU812 hit number 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, the second of four consecutive #1 studio albums for the band. Spurred by four Billboard Hot 100 top-40 singles ("Black and Blue", #34; "Finish What Ya Started", #13; "When It's Love", #5; and "Feels So Good", #35), the album eventually sold over 4 million copies
