Aerosmith To Begin Recording New Album Next Month

posted Feb 17, 2008 at 8:45 AM by Diamond Oz.  (12 Comments)

AEROSMITH guitarist Joe Perry was the featured guest on Eddie Trunk's "Friday Night Rocks" radio show on New York's Q104.3 FM last night (Friday, February 15). Some highlights:

* Joe is doing two shows with his sons' band TAB THE BAND. They will play deep AEROSMITH cuts ("Combination"), some JOE PERRY PROJECT stuff, some covers, and more. These special shows take place at the Hard Rock in Boston on February 29 and Hard Rock Café in New York City on March 1. Tickets are available from Ticketmaster.

* AEROSMITH has had many starts and stops on a new CD. They will start very seriously recording a new CD in a month or so. Perry feels the band is better than ever as players and is ready to make a great new CD.

* Joe spoke about the value and chemistry of bands having original lineups. Making the point that AEROSMITH and CHEAP TRICK are the only two from the '70s still intact.

* Perry said he can understand why Eddie Van Halen would want to play with his son, but can not understand how they would not have had Michael Anthony back in VAN HALEN when they were that close to a true reunion and they could bury the axe with David Lee Roth.

That's so metal. And by the way...who cares about good chemistry when you don't write your own music?

And will probably make a better record than Metallica. They're the ones who are dead (hope they prove me wrong).

*LOL* I used to have a huge crush on Steven Tyler and Joe |Perry when I was a little girl. I in fact was a completly obsesed fan for a long time... I was made fun of plenty for it, but did not care. Aerosmith was my life. I look back on it now and laugh at my self! What can I say? I was young and dumb! I still like some Aerosmith every now and again. The past couple of albums have kinda sucked in my opinion. Steven and Joe need to start getting drunk again and bring back the Toxic Twins!

You forgot Toy's in the Attic! Early Aerosmith is definately much better than their current stuff! Hm... I can't pick a favorite album, but really loved Greatest hit's.

Permanent Vacation was actually the last new Aerosmith CD I bought.. it seems like they all kinda sounded alike after that one... not that its a bad thing...but I just preferred the old formula so to speak..!!

Well the old formula of Aerosmith was way more raw and classic sounding than albums like Permanent Vacation and and such. There was also more emotions with the older Aerosmith that seemed to be lacking in the new stuff. I think that the drinking and drugs kinda brought more out of Steven and Joe. The new stuff sounds more clean cut and polished.
