Before even listening to this I just have to question, how have I already gotten three Aerosmith albums on this list? I'm not a fan of their music, I think Steven Tyler is a proven creep (look up his current lawsuit) and I really didn't think I'd be getting another album of theirs in this list. Once again, Aerosmith is just not my thing. The few standouts were their major hits and I'll admit those are decent. I was disappointed that this version of 'Walk This Way' was without Run DMC, which I didn't even realize existed. Standout Tracks: Walk This Way, Sweet Emotion
This was a bit of a test for me as I had a very negative opinion of Steven Tyler. So this was a case of trying to separate the art from the artist. I thought that ‘Sweet Emotion’ was one hell of a great track but when I listened to the lyrics it just made me cringe! Similar with ‘Round & Round’ - the lyrics about a 16 year old…and ‘Walk this Way’ about schoolgirls. He was 27 when this was released. Lyrics and story telling is a huge part of why I enjoy music, and this was just too sleazy against the backdrop of his life choices. It just made it too difficult to enjoy the art. I tried, but I failed!
I'm going in with a bad taste in my mouth cause I truely hate Steven Tyler's voice. Just loathe it. I was truly hoping to find some enjoyment in the instrumentals but even in that front Aerosmith totally drops thr ball. Everything is so simple and that hurts this record. Mixed with the overproduction it's just a recipe for some of the worst music I've heard in a while. Even with some all time classics like sweet emotion, and walk this way I still have zero interest in ever revisiting anything off this record. I hate it 1*
It is absolutely wild that people like this band and this album and that it can be considered anywhere near essential. What a boring pandering sound. Anything more than zero would be too many Aerosmith albums on this list, and this is the third one I've received so far, please make it stop.
I ALREADY RATED THIS YOU IDIOTS
This album was underwhelming across the board. Personally, I just find Steven Tyler’s voice, and Aerosmith as a whole, to be grating. The only standout moment I found was the harmony on Sweet Emotion’s chorus. I didn’t find a single song I could look back on and say, “Hey, that’s a good song.” 1.5/10
Steven Tyler’s vocal inflections are way to over the top for me, and I don’t think there’s anything else redeeming about this record. The instrumentals all remind me of Home Depot. Hard to ignore the sexual assault of a minor that was going on around this time when so many of they lyrics are about trying to fuck vulnerable women. Gross. Cover Art: 5/10 👍: Sweet Emotion can be cool in some contexts 👎: everything else 🤮: the verses of walk this way
God nope no thank you
Нет времени слушать музыку которая была записана не для меня. Вок зыс вэй конечно хорошая
no thank you. hate it
Not a huge ArrowSmith fan
Musically it's quite good but the lyrics are just gross
Really poor
Run DMC version is better. Easily a forgettable album
I guess this is better than their later nonsense. I had a little goodwill for them because when I was a kid learning to play their riffs were really fun. Actually listening to the record is not worth the effort though—no hidden gems. I feel like I’m now absolved from having to keep an open mind about this band, so at least I got that out of it.
No thanks
Aerosmith represents the worst type of ‘Murican rock. This is pure shite.
Possono insistere a farmi sentire sti cazzo di aerosmith, ma son noiosi.
I'm confused why this album is on the list. This was released ten or twelve years before any of Aerosmith's popular albums. The only thing this album has going for it is the original version of "Walk This Way", but even that isn't anywhere near as good as the Cameo version.
Hated
Hard pass
This really did nothing for me, and "Walk This Way" was better when Run DMC did it :(
Steven Tyler is gay.
Fuuuuuuck these guys
thanks I hate it
Wow the variety. Perfect for an all-day hangout.
