Anthony’s involvement in recording the 1998 album Van Halen III was dramatically less than previous albums. Anthony played bass on only three songs, with Eddie Van Halen playing the bass parts for the remainder. Anthony is credited as a songwriter for the album along with the rest of the band, as is always the case for Van Halen albums. Anthony performed with the band for the 1998 tour, and was credited on messages from the band thereafter. He participated in the band’s three reunion efforts with David Lee Roth in 2000 and 2001. Anthony’s name was also credited in a few band newsletters and appeared in band interviews during this time. Sometime after this, Anthony disappeared from public view until the 2004 reunion.
In 2002, Anthony, Hagar, Neal Schon, Deen Castronovo, and Joe Satriani formed the supergroup Planet Us and Anthony began making more frequent performances at Hagar concerts. Planet Us recorded two songs, including “Psycho Vertigo,” which was intended for the original Spider-Man soundtrack but ultimately did not make the album. That and the other Planet Us song written for the band, “Peephole,” were later released on the 2008 Hagar solo album Cosmic Universal Fashion.

During his time in Van Halen, Anthony also collaborated with his brother Robert Lee Sobolewski (Bobby Leigh), producing a 1988 demo for Robert’s band Asylum Suite, which was formed in 1984 which also featured singer Michael Thomas Fiore.
Initially when Eddie and Alex asked Hagar to rejoin at the end of 2003 for a 2004 tour, the plan was to not invite Anthony back. Hagar, however, refused to perform if Anthony did not rejoin, and Anthony agreed to play but on a reduced royalties contract. The contract drawn up was for the duration of the tour only. Throughout this time, and during the Van Halen III period, the public was unaware of Anthony’s true status within the band and was led to believe that he was still a full-time member.
