Eddie Van Halen wants his band – Dave Lee Roth included - to record another album.

The iconic guitarist revealed in an interview with Spinner.com that he wants the current line-up of the band to set about recording a new album.

"Dave, Wolfie, Alex and I are a band," he tells said. "I hope that after Janie and I get married, and Wolfie graduates, that we sit down and discuss recording new music, which I have tons of. If Dave's up for singing ... then do another tour, and just see where it takes us. Actually,next week or the week after Wolfie, Alex, and I are gonna start jamming. Maybe we'll give Dave a call and see what he's up to. He's off, always doing his own thing, and he checks in every now and then to see how we're doing."

If the new album does emerge it will be the band’s first studio album since 1998’s Van Halen III, and their first with Dave Lee Roth since 1984.
