"Sweet Emotion" Released: May 19, 1975[2] "Walk This Way" Released: August 28, 1975[2] "You See Me Crying" Released: November 11, 1975

good album

Ni fú ni fá.

Without a doubt, one of the albums of 1975.

Really good album. Enjoy a lot of tracks. Not totally perfect but generally strong. Not a lot wrong with it.

I mean, it has sweet emotion on it, so. . .

The quintessential middle school boy rock album. GET IT? SEX! GET IT? CUM! DO YOU GET IT? DO. YOU. GET. IT???

I mean, at this point we all knew this was coming, I'm not a fan of hair bands but Aerosmith did it better than most, they seem to have a bit more groove and funk to them. certainly more so than Van Halen who we had last week. scarves and botox out of 5

I’m heavily biased since Aerosmith was a big part of my early teen years, but this albums great. Even “Big Ten Inch Record”slaps even though I absolutely detest the lyrics. Really solid classic rock album. Favorite Tracks: “Toys In The Attic,” “Uncle Salty,” “Walk This Way,” and “Sweet Emotion”

A fine rock album.

I think the last time I listened to this entire thing was 1978, when I was in middle school. To me, "Sweet Emotion" is the only memorable track. Meh.

two good songs but nothing else

not so memorable

its alright

The two songs that became famous - “sweet emotion” and “walk this way” - were the right ones. Especially “sweet emotion.” They’re legitimately great rock songs and sound totally different than everything else on the album. The rest of the album is kinda pedestrian guitar rock, with the exception of “big ten inch record,” which is just freaking awful and filled with bad sexual double entendres, to boot. “You See Me Crying” is foreshadowing of the absolute garbage that Aerosmith would put out in the 90’s.

Not a fan. I can’t get into that 70s rock era so it’s hard for me to care.

A couple classics and a couple of cool songs I didn't know.

Solid album. Probably Aerosmith at its best based on what I’ve heard lmao I’ve heard nothing this is straight out of my butt.

Aerosmith, to me, is the very definition of a middle of the road band. They have some pretty memorable songs but just a lot that that is either bad or just pretty forgettable. Aside from Walk this Way and Sweet Emotion and maybe the title track Toys in the Attic, the rest of this just felt like filler. As a whole this album would probably be a 2.5 but I’ll round up for those two songs which are rightfully all timers

Rock N Roll chops! 2 rock masterpieces with Walk this Way and Sweet Emotion. The rest of the album is pedestrian bar band blues. Steven Tyler has a great rock n roll voice. The final track of the album seemed to be a blueprint for their ballad hits they went on to have 30 years later.

great album

Great classic rock vibes. Good bangers. Fun time.

Some of these songs surprised me. There was one that was a little 50s-esque, but I swear it was all sexual innuendo. And it was just generally…not as heavy as I expected.

Sweet Emotion is still a classic banger, that intro and bass especially

Some of Aerosmith's best work. Highlights: Toys in the Attic Walk This Way Sweet Emotion Round and Round

In their Top 3

Wow the variety. Perfect for an all-day hangout.

I think i am marking this down because I expected more. 3-4 really good songs and the rest are standard rock songs.

Meh. Sweet emotion was cool, rest was pretty lukewarm

Classic rock record, I had never heard big ten inch record before and that has a very different sound from their typical sound. More of 50s blues rock record. The always classic sweet emotion and walk this way are quintessential 70s rock songs. Round and Round has a heavier sound that I didn’t know Aerosmith did I like it

Pretty good rock album not really anything special though.

listening to these albums in the afternoon is so hard WHY. walk this way riff tho.

Hard pass

Heerlijk album met de klassiekers "sweet emotions" en "Walk this Way". Hard rock zoals het hoort

Aerosmith are not my jam at all. I listened to a few songs on the album but couldn't finish it. A lot of Classic Rock to me is bland and repetitive and some of the lyricism is gross. Aerosmith are not a musically great band and this album is testament.

Wow Balls

Sweet Emotion is a GOAT but the rest of this is just OK.

Meh, not a big fan, ok but boring

Actually did enjoy it. Fundamental Rock, good listen, though I don't think anything did stand out about it.

'Walk this way' and 'Sweet Emotion' are well known songs of Aerosmith to me. It was nice to have listend to the album.

Walk this way!

Really enjoyed, best Aerosmith album so far

Consistent and full of bangers, rap segments go over much better than expected

I’ve always liked this album, but feel like I’ve grown out of it in the last few years

Not much of an Aerosmith fan. Round and Round is a good track. Never liked the title track. Trying to listen closer to see if it’s just me. Sweet Emotion is a classic.

Absolute banger, I like Aerosmith now

Better than expected.

Love it - classic.

This really did nothing for me, and "Walk This Way" was better when Run DMC did it :(

Released 1975

It's Aerosmith and it's a classic Album

Day 22 of Albums You Must Hear.. Today’s offering is the third album from one of my favorite American Rock Bands, Aerosmith! Toys in the Attic, released in 1975, went on to become their most commercially successful albums in the U.S. selling 8 million copies. I have to credit my Dad for turning me on to Aerosmith. I would go through his collection of cassettes and study the artwork while he played their songs on the way to drop us kiddos off at elementary school. While being more Hard Rock than some other bands and not quite as heavy as others, Aerosmith kept a sweet balance of Rock and Blues, especially on Toys in the Attic. This record proved to not only be big for the Rock genre, it would years later become instrumental to the success of crossover rap music. More on that later. The title track, Toys in the Attic, showcases a much more cohesive gelling of the band, as they had spent much of their time touring in previous years. The constant live performances would sharpen their blade and it really shows on the title track. You knew that Aerosmith was bringing the heat. Sweet Emotions is tied with being my favorite song along with Walk This Way. In 1986 co-founder of Def Jam Recordings and producer, Rick Rubin, who had success popularizing hip-hop artists using hard rock samples and riffs, would convince a reluctant Run-D.M.C., to cover Walk This Way and the results would forever change the landscape of commercial Rap music. (It would also resurrect a floundering Aerosmith at the time.) Big Ten Inch was a superbly satisfying cover of Big Moose Jackson’s Blues song from 1952. The tongue in cheek lyrics paired with the blues and swing sound would be a nice highlight to the track listing. The final track also showcased Aerosmith’s willingness to slow it down a bit and let Tyler’s piano sit front and center. While most of my personal favorite albums and songs from Aerosmith would come in the late eighties and 90’s, Toys in the Attic is nearly flawless. Thanks Dad for introducing me to one of my all time favorite bands. This record is a definite must hear. Please share your thoughts, memories and opinions!!

the epitomy of classic rock. nty

If it's 1975 and you want a rock album but you're too much of a fuckin' JOCK to listen to Physical Graffiti, Blood on the Tracks, Wish You Were Here, Born To Run, Horses, Young Americans, Fleetwood Mac, Another Green World, Mothership Connection, or Face the Music, this is the album for you and the boys as you cruise around town in a less interesting version of Dazed and Confused.

uhhhh didn't finish it it's okay meh

I'd never heard the full album before, and the popular tracks definitely carry it. Still, Aerosmith is closer to my wheelhouse than most other music of this era, and this one is definitely better than whatever nonsense that yesterday's 2-star offering earned. 3 stars.

Steven Tyler is gay.

Ikke de helt rigtige Aerosmith, men ok med et par gode numre på

Fuuuuuuck these guys

Solid rock album with a lot of notable tracks. S/o Guitar Hero Aerosmith

Maybe I went into this judging too much. It was a good combination of rock and blues without being overboard. Still not a huge fan of Walk This Way, though.

CACK ROCK

Fuck yeah, this rocks. Hard rock, doesn't try to be anything other than what it is, album only 37min, this is a solid 4/5. The only other Aerosmith I've heard is their late 80s/early 90s stuff and Tyler sounds way better here.

thanks I hate it

A lot better than I was expecting. This is pretty raw rock’n’roll with loads going on!!
