In addition to announcing plans to hit the road in 2012, Van Halen have also seemed to hint at details of their much-anticipated reunion album. The disc could very well hit stores Feb. 7, if the graphic to the left is any indication of what the band has in store for fans.

Then again, maybe not. It’s really not clear exactly what the "2.7.12″ refers to - album release date? single release date? something else? - but some news outlets are interpreting a mass email mailed out yesterday with the subject "The Future" as the actual title of the VH album. ‘The Future’? It has a nice ring to it, but we wouldn’t start getting used to that name just yet.
