Is van halen really releasing a new album in 2011?

is van halen really releasing a new album in 2011? or is this just another lie perpretrated by the band to fans interest peaked more and more? For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge was the last kickass album they released, and thats been about 20 years ago. Since then we have seen 2 more studio albums (Balance, VH III), 2 greatest hits compilations, and a video game from activision. If they dont relese this anticipated album in 2011 like so many news and media rumors are reporting, then the band really is sleeping with the fishes once and for all.
