    As someone mentioned below, the noise at the beginning of ‘Runnin with the Devil’ is a chorus of car horns. The horns were taken from the band's own cars, including Alex's Opel, Eddie's Volvo, a Mercedes Benz and a Volkswagen.
    They were placed in a box that were connected to 2 car batteries and a foot switch. They were also slowed down somewhat during production to get that eerie siren like sound.

    Hi Erich Guitar Sage - I love your relaxed method of teaching, your accuracy and detailed approach. The Van Halen segment was fun to watch. I actually transposed to Ab the Ain't Talkin about love tune and got a nice cool idea for the lead guitar scale which I found out was mainly pentatonic on 1 whole step up on the G,B,E strings. Cool stuff !

    Any tone tips? Besides the EVH guitar? Its hard to time those dives right using a Strat on the sliding riff of Ain't Talkin bout Love. To get anywhere near that tone I have to use a heavy distortion or fuzz pedal into my super clean Fender amp. It works fine for my needs but you really nail it on this video.
