Aerosmith music from another dimension forum

The lack of studio publicity from Aerosmith for over a decade-aside from вЂњGuitar HeroвЂќ tours and вЂњAmerican IdolвЂќ-lead me to believe that this album is bad news. Albeit Aerosmith continues to expand their horizon through вЂњOh YeahвЂќ and вЂњFreedom FighterвЂќ which display the growth within the band since 1972 as lead guitarist, Joe Perry, steps up for lead vocals. The albumвЂ™s hit track, вЂњCanвЂ™t Stop LovinвЂ™ You,вЂќ comes out on top of the pack Carrie Underwood completely alters the sound of the track and country overpowers the rock вЂn roll. Even the ballad of the album вЂњWhat Could Have Been LoveвЂќ pays homage to one of their biggest hits вЂњI DonвЂ™t Want to Miss a ThingвЂќ in similar rhythm and theme. вЂњBeautifulвЂќ and вЂњOut Go the LightsвЂќ represent the classic Aerosmith niche of hard rock lyrics delivered with the rasp and attitude of Steven Tyler entwined with blues chords. Maybe this is the last time I'll ever listen to this album again.A long 11 years passed since Aerosmith last released original music, 2001вЂ™s вЂњJust Push Play.вЂќ After a near break-up of the BostonвЂ™s Bad Boys in 2009, the band reached its end of Sony/Columbia Records contract with their 15th and latest album, вЂњMusic from Another Dimension!вЂќДЄerosmith returned to their roots of bluesy rock in вЂњMusic from Another Dimension!вЂќ that transports back to вЂ70вЂ™s rock вЂn roll. Oh well, memory fades on some thing, on others (like album suckage) does not.ДЄnd there you have it. I know there was one song I liked back when I had the vinyl, but thought it was on side two. The only song I like is the opening track which I could have sworn was not the opening track on the vinyl.

Anyway, sure the price was right, but I couldn't justify a cheap purchase since a majority of the songs on this album plain suck. I didn't throw it like other people would, but treated it like a CD I owned. I actually had it in my hand and was going to give it another chance but then I read the song titles and a wave of nausea came over me and I gently placed it back in the bin. So I did my due diligence, listened to this yesterday evening, became ill and went to sleep.ДЄ few years ago when my local Wally World had the $5 bin, this was in the pile. Ive always felt the band never recovered from their pop-era and though I had hoped it would with Music From Another Dimension, they just continued to strive for pop success instead of being themselves.

Its a great album no doubt, but it hype doesn't live up to the commercial pandering it really strived for and received. That said, if you remove that song from the album suddenly feels more like the Aerosmith I know and love! Dude Looks Like A Lady should have never been recorded, its terrible, its a gimmick-song and Ive never cared for it. But don't take my word for it, look up the science behind it, its all true. Done With Mirrors should really have been their comeback album, its better than this one as well. And since were talking about their second era, we'll need oneВ additional clarification. Clearly their first era slays the comeback albums. That honor goes to Rocks and then Toys, and then Get Your Wings, some may even add in the criminally underrated Draw The Line. Lets clear up one thing, Pump is nowhere near the bands best album. Permanent Vacation can be had for 5 bucks on Amazon, if you are so inclined. So this was a nice primer for that album. Of course, Permanent Vacation was followed by the band's greatest album, Pump. As far as songs go, my favorite on the album is Magic Touch. The video for Rag Doll is pretty good too. Of course, I can't hear Dude (Looks Like A Lady) today without thinking of this:ДЄctually, it's a song that is quite annoying, unless I'm watching Mrs. I'm pretty sure I had this on cassette back in the late 80's, but I no longer have that. Three fairly successful singles were released as well, Dude (Looks Like A Lady) (#14), Angel (#3) and Rag Doll (#17). It was almost a Top 10 album for the band, but it stalled at number 11. and becoming the band's biggest selling album since Toys In The Attic. The album was pretty successful, selling over 5 million copies in the U.S. In 1987, Aerosmith released their 9th studio album, Permanent Vacation.
