Millenials and Zoomers don't realize in the late 70's that hard rock was almost dead and disco was dominating radio --- bands like Black Sabbath and KISS were becoming stale and people weren't buying the records anymore --- Dave and Eddie literally saved rock music and made it fun again --- setting up the entire "hair metal" scene of the 80's

@guitarmeetsscience

Absolutely spot on Fred! And then again in the early '80s a lot of synth-driven pop was threatening to dominate. Again, Van Halen saved the day by fighting fire with fire essentially. Of course that was not Eddie's motive, but they kind of did it just by chance. So then the metal bands started incorporating keyboards and the rest is history. Or really I guess pop and hard Rock and metal all kind of played nicely with each other after that point.
