Toys In The Attic

mid

Classic early Aerosmith, before the pop hooks took over. I think when it comes to Aerosmith, anyone could sing one of their songs and not knowing it, you would say “wow, that sounds like Aerosmith”. They have this sound and it’s a love or hate sound. This album rocks, that’s for sure. Rocks as in it’s just pure blusey, dirty rock. I can just imagine hearing Sweet Emotion for the first time. It has a very distinct opening and hearing that for the first time would have caught your attention instantly. That song does not fail. Walk this Way needed Run DMC in my opinion . This isn’t a bad album. It has a steady pace with a few well known bangers. Choice cut: Adams Apple

Like actual toys you find in an attic, there’s some value, but not remarkable enough to keep.

I'm tired.

Some fun songs and some ruined by being overplayed by the radio.

Damn, okay, I don't know what I was expecting from Aerosmith but I actually throuroughly enjoyed this. A lot more country/classic rock influenced than I would have expected for some reason.

Guitar was nice. Toys was decent. The other new to me songs were just ok

Good

Ehhh I was borderline on whether this was as good as people say. My conclusion: this is average. Sweet Emotion is obviously a classic, but what else does this offer? Some sleazy shtick that easily grows weary. You See Me Crying was the solid ballad I didn’t see coming, something Aerosmith devolved towards as their career progressed, but on this album it sounds incredibly earnest. Walk This Way is more memorable for the remix that came later rather than the original. Wouldn’t recommend it.

Good mix of kick-ass rock and somewhat-alternative (for the 70's) songs.

Love the singles... album cuts are kinda skippable

I think I’d decided that Aerosmith were some kind of “hidden gem” that I was yet to discover, after having one of their later albums on the list and making an edit for work using Dream On. Like “between this beautiful bit of classic rock and this monster hip/hop/rock crossover they must have made some great music”. But no, this is pretty generic dad rock and nothing at all to get excited about. Shame.

🎧7/9ths of this album kinda stinks, but then it’s got Walk This Way (good) and Sweet Emotion, one of the best rock songs of the 1970s.

These toys aren't as embarrassing to play with as later models but they're best kept in the attic either way.

Sweet emotion alone gets a 3.

Very middle-of-the-road rock for me. But hey, at least it pulls off that generic (and good) 70s rock sound that so many other bands tried and failed. Guitar riffs that are simple, brash, and somewhat memorable, propped up by a bass that often mirrors the riff but never really strays out of its comfort zone. Some good vocals, but ultimately they just aren't distinct enough from other bands at the time. And after having heard Led Zeppelin's music from 1969-75, I'm finding this a steep comparison to make. I'd like to take a moment to comment on the top-voted review here: "back in the 70s, steven tyler fucked an underaged groupie, and proceeded to literally adopt her as his legal daughter so he could keep fucking this child. he can stuff his big ten inch up his own ass for all i care" Now, I'm no Aerosmith fan, especially after the unremarkably passable rockfest of Toys in the Attic – but you can't seriously hold this belief unless you extend it to just about any white male 70s rock artist. Lennon, Bowie, most of Led Zep, Kiss... et cetera. This kind of review is just farming likes for something you could easily put on another artist. I was hovering between a 2 and a 3, but this review made me choose 3 to counterbalance the 1 (which is unreasonably low, even if you (rightfully) despise members of the band). 3/5 Key tracks: Toys In The Attic, Adam's Apple, Sweet Emotion

What a creepy album cover! This is the Aerosmith album with Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion. It's about what I expected.

For me this album is really measured by the songs not named "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion". Those songs I've heard a million times and they've withstood the test of time enough to keep the album afloat at a 3 minimum. But what about the songs I've never heard? Any gems hidden in there? The answer unfortunately is a big fat no. Big Ten Inch Record is corny as hell. Toys in the Attic and Adams Apple are beyond forgettable.

It's funny how similar this album is to the rolling stones albums 10 years prior: so much blues and boogie present in influence and sound. A few big hits, but they don't skew the overall rating of the album

In my opinion, very middle of the road

Good album overall, but I've never fully connected with it. These songs have been played to death on the radio and I could probably go the rest of my life without hearing them.

The latter half of this album is where their sounds shines through, with captivating guitar lines and great overall harmony. Steven Tyler (?)’s vocals are a little… uncompelling at times. The ten inch record song is atrocious and I can’t believe it’s in between Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion, the two most prominent songs. Regardless, decent sound and a short album.

Né infamia né lode, tende un pizzico in più verso la lode ma non deve montarsi la testa

Quality 70s rock. We enjoyed this. Sweet Emotion is especially good.

The most classic of classic rock. They have a rollercoaster at Didney. I liked the song about big fat 10 inch cock. 5/10

Classic Aerosmith. A rock band gives birth to rap!

Decent rock album, but Rocks impressed me more.

Classic rock still remains firmly not my thing, but as far as it goes these guys aren't too bad. Lots of catchy melodies and the lyrics are humorous enough to actually be interesting.

It was good, melancholic yet very upbeat, the lyrics are a bit ‘eeky’? But overall the theme is constant and pretty there, sweet emotion is the one that stands out from the album. Even if it’s a pretty short album, it feels very long. 6.2/10.

Aerosmith was one of my brother's favored groups so I got to know this album through him. I've always been kind of neutral on Aerosmith and while this album was decent, it doesn't rise to a 4 for me. Sweet Emotion is a banger though.

I think this album is not very groundbreaking in terms of rock as whole, but given the fact it was 1975 when this came out it sounds very modern. Walk This Way is a great track. I'm just not a biggest fan of Aerosmith.

This wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Like other people on here, I was mostly familiar with 90s Aerosmith. But this is basically pretty low-stakes garage rock/bar band stuff. That doesn't mean it's good, it's just not terrible.

solid record with huge songs. Me personally am not a huge aerosmith fan but i still enjoy bunch of these records. 3.0/5.0

I was intrigued to listen to this given I know nothing pre-late 80s from them. TBH I was left feeling a bit nonplussed by it. So it’s got some average blues rock that was the staple of the day, meh. There was a some individuality on Walk this way and Sweet Emotion which was much more funky and you can see how that may have influenced some 80s hair metal (fair play). My favourite was Round and Round, which was much heavier, but I suspect that’s a bit of an outlier for them. But overall I just didn’t get much personality from it, what sets them apart from other 70s rock. I should probably listen to further albums to find out, but off this showing I think it can remain a mystery unless this list forces me…..

Enjoyed this more than I thought. Clearly a filthy bunch of coked up egotists but solid riffs and good tunes.

Classic rock. A couple of really good songs here like Sweet Emotion. I felt like the production needed a little work, especially with the vocalist. I felt like in half of the songs, everything was muddy and difficult to listen to. Wanted to like this more than I did.

Yet another album better than I'd expected. Quire Bluesy. Rocks along nicely

Nothing special. Obviously Sweet Emotion and Walk This Way elevate the rating I would have given to a 3 instead of a 2. You See Me Cryin' is a beautiful ballad and I feel like this is where the band and Steve Tyler's vocal strengths lie (I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing another gorgeous ballad not on here) - maybe they should have stuck to that style instead of generic rock songs about looking up some schoolgirl's skirt or something.

Inoffensive, but this is the third album I've been served from them, and that's really just too many Aerosmith albums.

Toys In The Attic Walk This Way Sweet Emotion Round And Round You See Me Crying

Three-and-a-half stars album, Aerosmith really recorded some iconic songs on this one.

Probably Aerosmith’s best album with some of their best songs. But while I think Aerosmith wrote some catchy tunes, they definitely walked (this way… heh) so that others could run, including Run-D.M.C. with their re-interpretation “Walk This Way” or Shania Twain whose “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” sounds suspiciously like Aerosmith’s “Uncle Salty” (but in a good way, Twain’s song is so much better.

Good album, not my favorite but they showcased a few styles.

it started off strong but i feel like it drifted away, but wasn't too bad. just classic aerosmith

obligatory fuck steven tyler though

I grew up owning the Best of Album for Aerosmith, and I think this was a good choice. Best of, prior to their 1980's/90's shit. So this is worthy of inclusion based on the classics, but those lesser songs I can live without.

A few classic hits. I'd probably hit a greatest hits before I'd hit this.

It’s okay

Classic 80s Rock!

After my surprising love of Rocks, I was excited to listen to this in full. Turns out it just reinforced my priors. Early Aerosmith isn't great, but they aren't awful. Sweet Emotion is great though. Probably not coming back to this one.

Rock. Catchy at times, but mostly boring. Includes major hit Walk This Way.

Als nicht allzu großer Hardrock Fan kann man das Album doch ganz gut anhören und teilweise mitnicken.

3+ sweet emotion

Walk this way and Sweet emotion are worth it but the rest is not.

Yea fine cool

I used to love Aerosmith when I was like in middle school, and now it does feel a bit purile.

Cool, nothing special

Not my style but I like it, very cokey

Aerosmith enjoyed some relative success in the two albums prior to this, but it really feels like this is the album where they landed on their distinctive sound. Finding that sound on this album brought about two of the band's biggest hits, period: "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion". There's a reason why both of these are regarded as quintessential Aerosmith songs; sure there are other, earlier, Aerosmith songs that are popular, but these became synonymous with that Aerosmith sound. Aside from that big, notable step for the band, most of this album didn't really stand out to me, but it and the songs were baseline enjoyable!

anche questo classico

bel gruppo, capisco perché sono noti, sanno giocare coi generi e hanno un bel sound canzoni che ho apprezzato particolarmente: big ten inch record you see me crying any way you want it

non il mio preferito degli Aerosmith, ma sempre bravi. e Walk this way è sempre una mega hit.

Ok, ci sta.

Né infamia né lode, tende un pizzico in più verso la lode ma non deve montarsi la testa

Great stuff

Outside of Sweet Emotions and Walk This Way, like most of Aerosmith's 70s stuff, I just feel like it is too hit or miss for me

This shits almost 50 years old lol wow. Steve Tyler sounds so young but obviously a couple of these tracks at least have become iconic. The title track is the best of the non iconic hits. Feel like I'm watching a Richard Linklater movie.

Pretty decent '70s rock album, it has everything you could expect from an album from this time. Good listen overall.

Born in late 1980, I had always seen Aerosmith as a caricature of a rock band, which they basically had become by their late 80's comeback. I'll always have an ironic nostalgia for "Get a Grip" with some great soapy pop classics. Their first four records however, encompassing the mid70s is a 5 album tear of solid hard rock. This may be the best of the bunch with two hits in Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion

Next...

Oh sorry I thought yesterday was the peak of Dad Rock.

Despite Walk This Way, this album didn't grip me.

When someone says “70s classic rock” this will be what I think of.

3.5 i actually enjoyed this one good dad rock

Struggled to engage with this beyond the hits, did have a different sound to what I was expected, more varied.

Meh

Good

3.5/5

Some iconic songs. A lot of meh, including a “my big dick” joke that goes on way too long. Steven Tyler is a shitbird, but I’m not going to kill the whole review for that.

this album and i go way back, in a sense. my mom bought me a used copy of this on CD when i was in elementary school and starting to really get into music. i listened to it back then and was only interested in the two big songs on this one (walk this way, sweet emotion). growing up in massachusetts, this album and band is unavoidable, and i'm not sure if my relative ambivalence is because i have been inundated with these songs for years or if i just simply do not really care for this stuff. it's not /bad/, like i think most of these songs are fine enough. but this album just really comes off as a big meh for me, even with the big songs included. it's just one i do not care for. i don't hate it, it's just whatever to me. there are a million other rock bands putting out stuff in the same time period that is more interesting, more thought out, more worth listening to, in my opinion.

I'm a little impressed that this came out in the mid-70s and not the mid-80s. Other than that, it's generic blues rock with a few dated sections and some okay bits. Overall a pretty dull 3 stars.

I own Aerosmith records and have listened to them many times over the decades, but I had never sat down and listened to Toys in the Attic all the way through uninterrupted. I learned that I still love the hits "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion" but I was also pleased to discover an enjoyment for "Round and Round" as well. The only track that truly seemed out of place was "Big 10 Inch Record". My 10 year old self would have giggled and loved it, but the middle-aged me cannot help but roll my eyes. While the album is of cultural importance with its inclusion of "Walk this Way", thereby setting up the creation of the Rap Rock genre ten years later with Run DMC, and I enjoy the record, I'm not sure THIS album in particular belongs on this list.

Couple of classics in here, but not an album where every cut is a gem.

I felt like I should be breakdancing on a sheet of cardboard and starting a neighborhood dance while we dance down the street. So chaotic

Classic. Feels like I’ve heard it a million times because we all have.

Not bad; classic Dad rock album. I think they should've included Aerosmith debut instead.

The instrumentation in this is awesome and I really enjoyed the sound of it if when i was a little zoned out, but if I started tuning into the lyrics I liked it a lot less.

It's fine - the songs are stronger on PV (Rag Doll, Dude)

Just seems like the perfect definition of average

Walk This Way & Sweet Emotion are 70s anthems. Rest of the album can stay in the attic

Could be a 4 but downgrading it because of steven tyler

Maybe it’s because I’ve heard lots of classic rock before, but this didn’t particularly stand out to me

Not a bad listen. At least 3 classic songs that most people are familiar with but I dug ‘Round and Round’. It was a midtempo rocker that I can hear in other bands that came after them. Worlds apart from the Aerosmith that got their 2nd wind after the Run-DMC version of ‘Walk This Way’ that I was more familiar with.

The singles range from good to magnificent. The rest is filler or just better.

Sounds like I expected, nice to know where ‘Walk this way’ comes from and still catchy song and melody

B- Toys In The Attic 3 Uncle Salty 3 Adam's Apple 3 Walk This Way 3 Big Ten Inch Record 3 Sweet Emotion 3 No More No More 3 Round And Round 3 You See Me Crying 5 Pretty nice listen, great new song to add.

Good but too american

Classic rock. Doesn’t sound much like the later Aerosmith.

My wife is a massive Aerosmith fan, so I know this album well. There are some absolute rock classics. Sweet Emotion, in particular, is just a great record. The original version of Walk this Way is a bit flat compared to the Run DMC collab. The whole “Suck on my big 10 inch” thing is a bit mad, but overall it’s a great rock album.

yeah, this is 70’s rock all right

Overall a pretty average rock record. Most of it is pretty meh but there are some interesting bits, some surprises, and a couple of classics on there.

Kind of great, kind of awful. Kind of cringey, kind of lovely. This is the root of garbage rock. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. 10 Inch Record is disgusting, but Sweet Emotion is amazing. Walk this Way is fun and definitely a classic.

I thought it would have more known songs on it. Still good, but very short album!

Fine

young men peacocking displaying colors, strength, charm raw energy throbs

I have heard of Aerosmith and listened to Walk this Way which is off this album. Though the rest of it didn’t really impress me much which I was sad about since the songs I do know from Aerosmith are really good. I did like: You see me crying though. I will listen again and maybe other Aerosmith albums will be better.

Classic Aerosmith

I feel like I should of learned something but didn’t

Rating: 5.5/10 This album is composed of two amazing songs and seven incredibly mid/mediocre songs. Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are so good that it warrants this album getting three stars, very disappointed with pretty much the rest of it though. Favorite songs: Walk This Way, Sweet Emotion. Worst songs: Toys In The Attic, Big Ten Inch Record.

Classic rock & roll

As a casual non-listener, I've always found Aerosmith a little hard to categorise: a bit too late to be "classic rock" with my favourite veterans, but a bit too early to fall under the hard-rock or metal stylings that would simmer over the next few years, before exploding into ludicrous hair-metal. In 1975, Aerosmith's brand of hyper-macho riffage feels a little out-of-step: disco and punk are right around the corner, and artsier, trendier subgenres are on the rise. So while lauded by fans of the band, "Toys in the Attic" has never been on my radar as a 70's rock classic and almost every track has evaded me until now. I've been really missing out with "Sweet Emotion", which is my clear standout: it's a fantastic song, with a great balance of hard-edged verse and enigmatic chorus. I also enjoyed the extra instrumentation laced throughout (a bass marimba, a breaking vibraslap, a lecherous talk box). "Walk This Way", too, is a lot of fun, though it feels strange to hear it with the Run-DMC makeover stripped away. And the title track is a frenetic opener which sells the album well: a rhythm section diving headfirst into fury; meaty, ringing guitar chords; layered backing vocals repeating the title phrase with glee. The last stretch of the album either collapses under its own weight or floats away from a lack of it: I can't decide. "No More No More" and "Round and Round" both feel like repetitive, empty jam sessions to me, failing to capture the same excitement as the hits. I also can't resist pointing out that what "Toys in the Attic" brings in bluesy riffs and sample-ready choruses, it severely lacks in progressive sexual politics. I don't have a total aversion to innuendos in rock, but these are pretty woeful: "you ain't seen nothing 'till you're down on a muffin"; "she ate it, lordy it was love at first bite"; "suck on my big ten inch record". That said, who really listens to Aerosmith for insightful sexual politics?

Don’t listen to Aerosmith often.

Sweet emotion is great

Great American Rock and Roll but many are better

How very 70s

Couple of good songs - and a lot better than their new stuff. But not something I'd seek out to listen to.

What can I say? It’s an Aerosmith record. It has its ups: The title track is fun and “Sweet Emotion” is brilliant. It has its downs: The infuriating “Big Ten Inch Record” and a lot of Steven Tyler. It’s not good, it’s not bad. It’s just Aerosmith. I think Toys In The Attic is my 3rd record by the band on this list so far. Here’s to hoping that it’s the last.

This album is good. Part way through it seemed like it was dependent on it's singles a bit, however You See Me Crying was a great closer and wrapped up the experience well. 3/5

Eh, like Aerosmith. I thought I would like this album more. Maybe I was not in the mood for a lot of double entendre yesterday. Favorite track is Sweet Emotion.

Good 70s rock. I really liked Toy in the Attic. Solid music.

This may not be a perfect album, suffering from a few tonal inconsistencies, but it stands forever as an artifact of scuzzy 70's rock idealism. The tonal inconsistencies could be perhaps a metaphor for the resulting career Aerosmith & frontman Steven Tyler had in the decades to follow, with many hills and valleys artistically and otherwise, but that all said, when you talk about Aerosmith in the 1975, you put some respect on the name. It's through the context of this entire album that you hear the true brilliance of overplayed classic rock radio staples "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion" for the sonically-creative juggernauts that they are. While the Stonesy blues-rock of "Big Ten Inch Record" and orchestral Beatles-spawned ballad of "You See Me Crying" don't quite land as thunderously as their influences, they are satisfying in their earnest approach, only amplifying tracks like the title track and "Round And Round". This is because as always when it comes to Aerosmith, they are at their best when they are being themselves to the maximum.

I thought I would like it more than I did

det her album er nok det tætteste Aerosmith er kommet på at være amerikanske rolling stones. Der er nogle ret gode numre og noget filler. Walk this way er så meget bedre med run-dmc

Gik ikke ind med vildt høje forventninger, synes faktisk det var fed!

Fin nok! Ikke noget der stikker ud, men bare en helt fin plade generelt.

Le rock le plus moyen ever, pis j’ai même pas passé un mauvais moment

a few great tracks, great guitar licks. Solid album. People seem hung up on the "steven Tyler being a pedo" thing but at the end of the day back then you could probably get away with murder if you were famous. Be grateful you have the internet people. Everyone's a cunt. That ain't news.

This album was alright, and carried by two of my favorite songs from Aerosmith (Walk This Way/Sweet Emotion). Besides that, the album has a very heavy blues rock sound amd contains some catchy riffs. I recommend at least a single listen of the album in its entirety. Favorite Song(s): "Walk This Way", "Sweet Emotion", "No More No More"

Some good songs, like Sweet Emotion and Walk this Way. Memorable vocals. Apart from that, everything was alright. The beginning of Uncle Salty sounded a bit like Man I Feel Like a Woman.

feel like a bunch of the recent albums have felt like this to me; there's nothing bad ab it but I also would rather be listening to something else and it doesn't do anything great. fine for background music because id be happy to talk over this, not that that's a negative thing but not sure if thi 5.5/10

Pretty good. I kind of have to hype myself up to enjoy rock and roll albums, but if I’m in the mood I really like them. 6.5/10

6/10 - There are some good songs and some I do not really care for

Just kinda boring, but not too bad. 5/10

Meh

Everyone knows Aerosmith as a classic rock band with the standout electric guitar sound. But I never realized how much of a blues album this is. Which is not bad by any means. I'd let Steven Tyler wail into my ears all day long.

Walk this way.

Not bad. Not my favourite.

Not Aerosmiths best album. Was okay

I prefer 90’s Aerosmith to 70’s Aerosmith. It was a decent rock album worthy of three stars but it didn’t fully engage me. Sweet Emotion is the standout track.

Some stellar standout singles, 10 inch is kinda creepy track. Enjoyed like 1/3 of the album.

A mid tier record from a mediocre band. If it wasn't for a few outstanding riffs, this would be completely forgettable. I really don't understand the hype this band has.

i don't know what to make of this record, if i like it or not. there are a few highlights, but man if the lows are lows. a great thing is that is mostly a fun album, i wouldn't get mad if i listened to it again, but i just don't get it. the opening of the album, \"toys in the attic\" is considered to be a first proto-punk track, but i don't think so at all. \"uncle salty\" is such a messy track that i think i grew to even like it (?), \"walk this way\" is so overplayed that whatever i say would be influenced by it. \"adam's apple\" is boring, but \"sweet emotion\" still sounds good like \"no more no more\". oh, and something everyone agrees to, what a bad closing track, so bad considering \"round and round\" is not bad at all. it's good to have a designated image and sound to that 70s sleazy youth, but maybe i just don't care that much like those guys (my father). and everywhere they like this album, i just can't seem to be or feel impressed, i just don't know what to do with it.

Very mediocre record saved by Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion. And even then I think the Run-DMC version of Walk This Way is better. Cheap sex appeal crammed into every song and renders them all more boring for it.

I was kind of excited about this album, because I know Aerosmith has some really good songs, including a couple on this album - Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion. Sadly, though, the first three songs kind of suck. No More No More is OK, and Round and Round is quite good, but other than those 4 songs, the rest of the album is decidedly meh. Overall, really disappointing album. I kinda would give it a 2.5 if I could.

Ha so fast kei notize gmacht zu dem, meega viel gitarre isch echt nice. Cha nöd viel sege es guete rock aber nöd woooow. No erstuunlich findi dases klar de sound vo früehnem hip-hop beiiflusst het. Z.b. beastie boys wo mer scho gha hend als album.

erste song titletrack nüt speziells afoch en rocksong? uncle salty bluesrock, s tönt alles schön crunchy. walk this way riese banger. chrank wie fest dass d drums noch hip hop töned. riff und alles crazy geil. solo seehr cool. big ten inch record isch afoch en penis joke oder? aber blues cool. sweet emotion easy nice. riff chli basic aber d hook isch sehr geil und die hinderschi abgspielte tön sind super. no more no more sehr southern rock und so. aber backing vocals sind hard. Round and Round isch langsam und härter? und flanger vocals sind geil? ich find s isch allgemein bitz republikaner-rock. you see me crying, er singt plötzlich bitz wie de labi siffre und s lied macht öppis? findi besser als die andere. eeendlich mol nöd nume zwei gitarre wo riffed und chli interessanti chords wenn de text scho afoch rock text isch. sust sorry sevi aber da git es zwei. vlt bini au z wenig ufmerksam gsi und gib dem album sim ifluss z wenig gwicht aber die meiste songs hani ehner bland gfunde. walk this way und you see me crying sind highlights. 2-3

I WAS CRYYYYYING WHEN I MET YOUUU NO WI'M TRYING TO FORGET YOUUUU ich han us irgeme grund sehr en softe spot für aerosmith hahaha aber ich kenn jz vo dem album nur sweet emotion und walk this way okeeee ja für mich ischs eifach rock. leider het mich nüt würkli mitgrisse, au wenns für die damalig ziit öppis speziells gsi isch? naja han get a grip lieber

Nothing more than average rock music.

+pretty decent guitar +nothing too notable about the album apart from that +AGAIN, i keep saying this, a lot the songs aren't easily distinguishable (at least on the first listen) +big ten inch??? EXCUSE ME??? anyway, that song kinda stood out to me reminded me more of rockabilly not notable. it's just mediocre rock mostly 6/10

Actually not very loud, likeable

Passable but derivative

Listening to this album as a young teenager is where I first learned what "the rabbit died" meant. Ah, memories!

While it was nice to hear some old favorites by Aerosmith, the B-tracks that I could swear I half-recognized brought this down. There's the old joke about guitarists only needing to know three chords to play a lot of popular music, but several tracks felt like Aerosmith scrubbed out their previous lyrics and just put in new ones - not that they copied somebody else, but that they went "That song didn't land, reuse what we already composed with new lyrics."

Strip club rock. Good instrumentals but song subject was vapid and sleazy.

Some of the less popular songs are pretty good, I've never heard them before. Early tracks remind me a bit of Blind Melon.

Hit or miss. Big Ten Inch... Really?!?! 3.11

Big Guitar Hero vibes. There are some hits, very distinct sound and definitely stable for some people. Not as bad as I was expecting but did not surprise either.

I like the blues rock style of a lof of these songs, and there are also a few I've heard before. Overall, a solid album.

Pretty good album

I'm feeling a high 3 on this one trans - -ition Have you given this album a listen? Did you love it did you hate it? What would you rate it?You're the best, you're the best. What should I review next? Hit the like if you like and please subscribe. Alex Mackey, Aerosmith, Forever.

love the classic hits and vibes that are in dad rock bands such as aerosmith. this album however? feels like it has a good bit of filler, and only a few tracks are what i want to listen to. tracks like 'walk this way' bring it up to an average 3.

Aus heutiger Sicht z.T. etwas simpeler Rock. Das Titelstück geht gut ab. Weiterer top pick: _Sweet Emotion_. _Walk This Way_ (das mir bis dato einzig bekannte) und _Round And Round_ kann ich auch mal hören.

Pretty good my Aerosmith's standards.

fav song: walk this way

This is Aerosmith's third album, and their biggest commercial success. This work contains some of their biggest hits, like "Walk this Way" and "Sweet Emotion." The band's raunchy, confident style is a defining element of their songs, and their popular appeal made them one of the biggest rock bands of the 70s and 80s.

I'm surprised this is from the mid 70s, I thought it was late 80s. I love Sweet Emotion.

Solid 7/10. Very backloaded. Didn’t really care for Uncle Salty, BTIR, or Adam’s Apple. Title track and Sweet Emotion were fantastic, and the rest if the album ranged from great to good.

Honestly, it's not too bad. This is my 3rd Aerosmith album here and that's pretty much been my experience: I have low expectations and they somehow surpass them. Just like in the other 2 reviews it's the instruments that really are the star of this band. Hot take to infuriate the boomers and lovers of all things cock rock: Stephen (Steven? Who care) Tyler is not a very good vocalist. He brings it down and makes me hate the band. See also when they get too bluesy. No thanks. A 3 with a free shrug and a sigh.

so bangers

This album hits the ground running and doesn't let up for the majority of its runtime. Obviously Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are mega hits, but Toys In The Attic and No More No More are great additions too. There are a couple tracks that I get the point of, but that I still would skip if I was listening again. There are some weird undertones throughout that I wish weren't there, but musically this is a really solid album. Highlight: Sweet Emotion Lowlight: Round And Round Surprise Hit: No More No More

Not bad for a Stones/Zep hybrid...

Two massive hits, the rest wasn't what I was expecting from Aerosmith

The singles really carry this album "you see me crying" starts out as a solid ballad that took me by surprise. unfortunately, goes full cheese half way through. most of the ideas are just reassemblings of existing works from better bands.

Standard 70's rock in its's prime - with. lot of competition for air time back then. Classics Hits got air time and will be instantly recognizable ( "walk this way" and "sweet emotion" - standards associated) to Aerosmith to any casual listener. Other songs follow suit... can't push my rating to a 4 - - really a 3.5

Some real classics. Walk this way and sweet emotion. 3.8

Bit waily

Un escencial del Hard Rock y uno de los mejores álbumes de Aerosmith, considerando que su carrera ha sido mantenerse en un sonido constante, sin innovar mucho o desviar de la fórmula clásica de la "música con guitarras".

Fun enough, but nothing stands out

Svingede lidt mellem 3 og 4. Synes der er noget god blues og tråd, men måske lidt for generic og uinspireret til det rigtigt interesserer mig

- Great classic sound - Nothing much to say about Aerosmith, it was fun to listen to - 3.5

- impressive variety - crazy how far rock has come, those pianos just don’t exist these days - jack of all trades, master of none?

Very old school rock music by today's standards.

This was bad. I like a bit of Aerosmith but I found it very hard to get through this. Walk This Way salvaged it for me but only just.

Not a fan of Aerosmith but their best album, grows on you on repeated plays

I was expecting over the top singing. Glad that didn't happen until the last song.

Not a favorite but a good one

It's alright, but not essential. Reminds me of early Queen, but not as good. Favorite song: You See Me Crying

Meh

Ja opzich maar niet laaiend enthousiast ofzo

Pretty good, Big Ten Inch Record is howver, terrible. Definitely need to listen to it again and louder.

Some cool songs but mostly sounds very similar to one another.

Carried by 2 massive singles, some random classic rock n roll in there.

Aerosmith has always been more of a singles band than an album band for me. Toys in the Attic reaffirms this idea. Sweet Emotion and Walk this Way are classics. Most of the rest is forgettable. 3/5

I was never really a fan of Aerosmith and this album didn't really change that. That being said, it wasn't bad and I recognized a few of their hits off of it. 3/5

2/9, 22%

It doesn't really get more Aerosmith-ier than this album. If you want Aerosmith nobody would be disappointed if you put this one on. With standout tracks like "Toys in the Attic", "Walk This Way", and "Sweet Emotion" you'll be having a good ole 70's rock time. Tracks like "Adam's Apple" and "No More No More" leave something to be desired but hey, not every song can be great. And then theres "Big Ten Inch Record" (get it? it's his penis!) which I don't really know how I feel about. All this boils down to a solid 3/5 album. I mean, it is Aerosmith so you can't really expect more than that.

3.5 stars. "Sweet Emotion" is an incredible song that has an iconic bass riff. "Walk This Way" has equally catchy hook as gross lyrics? "You See Me Crying" is what a power ballad done well sounds like. But the rest of the album is meh,

pretty deece

Twas okay.

Didn't have a chance to listen yesterday. So I'll go through a few songs this morning. Sweet Emotion is on here. That always reminds me of Dazed and Confused. Oh and Walk This Way.

Naturally I know this album, or at least parts of it, though I’m more familiar with their later works (this is already their third album?!?). Not my usual cup of tea, but I really appreciate the beats, the exuberance of the singing, and the implied strutting, even if Steven Tyler himself is a real sleazeball. Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion really hold up and I love the swing rhythm of Big Ten Inch Record. But Round and Round and You See Me Crying are tedious.

Good old school glam rock and roll. I knew walk this way but didn't know it was from Aerosmith and that this was the original version (besides the one with run DMC)- I am happy I have rediscovered it. Not sure it fit the mood of the day, but lately I am not sure what fits the mood to start with. Upbeat, rocky, glammy.

This came out after I took a hard right to acoustic music. It is OK but It still is not my jam.

Not a strong start to this album in my opinion, but by the time you hit Walk This Way and onwards it really picks up, pretty fun listen. 3.5

A few classics surrounded by OK filler

Aerosmith was a band that got me deeper into hard rock growing up, and this was one the pivotal albums for me. I feel that a lot of the artist's tone became weaker as I got older, and it almost drowns in a sea of better performed and written music. Some tracks on this one are stellar, while others feel like they wander aimlessly and crudely.

Knew the hits on this album but have never listened to much Aerosmith. Enjoyed it

Decent but could barely understand the lyrics. The best song was sweet emotion for sure. I did like that is was very upbeat and cool/rock vibes

It's fine and pretty generic sounding 70s era rock.

3.5

Underwhelming overall, but some solid hits.

Obviously love sweet emotion and walk this way but as a whole not the entire album

Covered by REM. That’s good enough for me

Rigtig far-rock, hård guitar, og et par bangers

This was one of the first albums on my iPod Nano in middle school, but it was also one of the ones that fell off of my radar as I got sick of the crudeness of peak classic rock. Adam's Apple, Big Ten Inch Record are among the ones I remember from my childhood for being gratuitiously lewd (others being from AC/DC, Van Halen, Led Zeppelin, etc.). And I don't mean to be prude, but just kinda burnt out on it. When every album has a meme track about sex, it gets a bit old. That said, I have forgotten how deep this album is. No more No more feels moderately overlooked, but is great, I forgot that Sweet Emotion was even on this disc, and the titular Toys in the Attic is an absolute banger. I overall liked this trip down memory road, even with steven tyler's memable "yowling on you seem me crying" (which is a hilarious prelude to the already-a-meme "I don't want to miss a thing"). Its a good album, but I can't give a fair review when I'm burnt out on generic classic rock guys doing guy things. Maybe this is me getting old and lame.

More mostly-boring dad rock

Haven't heard this since before high school. When Aerosmith didn't suck. Favorites: Toys, Uncle Salty, Sweet Emotion.

=Klassik Rock +hat ein oder zwei bekannte Lieder -ich könnte auch Elton John hören -etwas langweilig +you see me crying ist ganz okay Es war ganz okay als Hintergrundmusik während ich meine BA beschrieben habe, aber das ist ehrlich nicht mein Stil. Hardrock in diesem Stil ist entweder zu anstrengend um zu entspannen oder nicht anstrengend genug zum headbangen. So sind halt die Klassiker.

I grew up hearing a lot of Aerosmith music, partly because I grew up in the late 70s and early 80s when Aerosmith was very popular, and also because they are a local band to Boston's South Shore, where I was. I didn't listen to a lot of Aerosmith as I got older, so it was nice to return to this album after all this time. I remember very well the handful of super-popular tracks, but it was great to re-hear the other tracks, too. Reminds me that this band is more versatile and interesting than a lot of contemporary popular rock bands of the time. I like the influence of funk and those styles. As musicians, they are superbly strong. Some really good writing and compositional work here, too. Overall, great album.

Opens with a banger! Makes me wanna mosh. It’s downhill from there. But overall it rocks.

Some standouts and some more boring parts.

There are some definite rock standards on this album, particularly Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion. It's hard to deny their significance. Unfortunately, this period is arguably the height of Steven Tyler's sleaziness. While it's tempting to try to separate the art from the artist, it's hard when you hear songs like Uncle Salty. In Tyler's words: "Salty worked in a home for lost children and had his way with this little girl." That's a little too close for comfort to the accusations against Tyler. Sadly, some of these songs hit a lot differently when you know the background.

AJ: Sweet Emotion rules. That’s it for me.

Aside the big hits on this album, it's not my fave Aerosmith record.

Lively but extremely repetitive. OK if it was on already playing, but it does get annoying to listen to as a full album.

Aerosmithin hittilevy. Onhan se keskimääräistä parempaa jenkkirockia, 3.5/5

VRaiment juste oubliable, C'est leur album le plus commercial, le plus connu aussi. Pas le meilleur et il s'est fait connaitre probablement a cause de Run DMC que le reste... 3

It was okay. The guys are memorable, but the rest wasn't impressive.

Surprisingly, I enjoyed this album and even some of the lesser known (to me) tracks were quite good. I say surprisingly as I am an Aerosmith hater -- in small doses it's enjoyable for this 40 minute album.

Relativ langweilig 2-3 gute Songs

Classic banger

Ok, obviously I’m familiar with Aerosmith. I see a couple on here that are 5s, Walk This Way, and Sweet Emotion. Be interesting to listen to the rest. Oh yeah, Big Ten Inch Record I’ve heard before. Randall was a big Aerosmith fan for a while, I wouldn’t be surprised if he played this record for me. Funny, I don’t remember the Smith sounding this way. I always thought of them as a backup Rolling Stones. But Steven Tyler is kind of at the back of the sound a lot of the time. Ok, got to Walk This Way. Is this album 3 good songs with a bunch of filler? Track 7 starts off nice - yeah, more Tyler upfront, more harmony … it’s almost like they became Aerosmith after that three song run in the middle. Yeah, even this one is kind of bland after a promising start. Nice Joe Perry work on the solo in the middle though.

I expected more from Aerosmith,this album is perfectly serviceable rock,nothing amazing.Walk this way is pretty good and so is toys in the attic but the rest is bland.

Hyvät kappaleet hyviä, muut ok. Sweet Emotion kova. Walk This Waysta kuullut Run DMC versiota liikaa niin orkkis kuullosti vähän oudolta.

C'était pas trop le moment mais vas-y

j'ai pas trop fait attention mais u go guys

Meh. I've never been overly impressed by these guys.

Pretty generic classic rock. Guitar and vocals were both excellent, but this didn't really do much for me.

You can't be a 12 year old from the Boston area and not have a big Aerosmith phase. After your Boston phase, that is. We don't have many bands! I don't know how much they hold up for me now, they kind of give off the vibes of theater kids playing rockers, it feels a bit dated now, but it's still pretty fun to hear Walk this Way and Sweet Emotion in context. Big Ten Inch in between them is a bit cringe, just a standard blues track behind an extended dick joke. I'd go 3.5 for nostalgia's sake but 4 is too far for me 18 years later haha. Man, Steven Tyler loves songs about crying lol.

Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion saved this one. Not a big Aerosmith fan.

Pretty good hard rock borrowing more from Les Zeppelin than I previously noticed. The songs on this album are better than almost all of their later hits.

If I wanted to listen to Led Zeppelin or The Rolling Stones I’d do that. To me Aerosmith is a poor man’s imitation of these acts, and aside from “Sweet Emotion” (an absolute banger) nothing on here blew me away. Round and Round” was another highlight and had some great lead guitar by Joe Perry.

kinda meh

Fine, I guess. Nothing special. Would have scored lower without the hit songs.

Aside from Sweet Emotions (my fave), the rest of the songs were fine. Standard Aerosmith - heavy guitar, busy.

The most interesting and enjoyable Aerosmith album on this list by a long way. Whilst the other two go all in on the Aerosmith classic rock, this is much for varied in style. It includes 1950s Rock 'n' Roll (Big 10 Inch Record), a touch of psychedelia (Sweet Emotion), and is it me, or does Shenia Twain's 'Man I Feel Like A Woman' owe a lot to 'Uncle Salty'? It still has big riffs, but the variety gives them breathing space and allows them to stand out, rather than getting lost in unrelenting bigness like on 'Pump' and 'Rocks'. Rating: 3.5/5 Playlist track: Walk This Way Date listened: 27/08/23

Suck on my big ten inch...classy.

sounds classic. Some songs were so listeneable like Walk this way o Sweet emotions, but in this context were really great. Maybe Round and round was my fav, sounds heavy, good riff but a little bit repetitive. Good album, like it

This wasn’t very special. Sweet Emotion is an all time classic of a jam and Walk This Way is a rollicking good track but the rest is just ok at best, there’s some peaks but overall it’s unmemorable and Bog Ten Inch is fucking dumb as shit. 3 stars I guess

I really enjoy Aerosmith and I know this is one of their best albums, but the band really has a lot of unrealized potential. It shows on songs like Sweet Emotion where their experimentation is at its best. They are capable of great songs, but then fill the album with half baked, completely forgettable tracks. Everything else is great, I just wish the writing had a little more attention paid to it. 3/5

Ah fuck all my notes have disappeared! Anyway, I was surprised at how much I liked it, as I'm not a metal fan or whatever genre they were at this time in their career. Interesting sound, at times sounded a bit like a heavy Bolan/T Rex, mixed with blues. But you can hear the influence they must have had on the hideous soft rock from the 80's. Best tracks; Walk This Way and the second half of the album. - 3

This ain't too bad, restrains itself from typical cock-rock indulgence and awful solo's for the most part. I didn't love any of the tracks, but for the perhaps the first time on this list with a hard rock album, I didn't actively hate any of the tracks. Solid 3/5 Fav Track: Sweet emotion

Certainly an improvement on 'Pump', this one I found myself getting into a bit more. Still quite a fair bit of style I don't fully gel with, and there's some fairly cringeworthy lyricism, but there were some good catchy moments in here and I found myself pleasantly surprised by most of the album. A two and a half. Fave track: Sweet Emotion

Good album. Walk this way and sweet emotions are best. Adam's Apple is a solid track. I wish you could give half stars on this site.

Not my jam. There are some good songs that have endured so that is something. 3 stars

It’s ok

Prima muziek hier en daar, maar wel wat over the top. Niet echt essentieel bovendien. Hits zijn goed.

Only like 2 songs were really good, the rest were nothing special.

A couple of real bangers and the rest is pretty solid.

I get the glam influence. I didn’t find this to be essential or especially great. The hits are good, but the rest feels like filler. I’ll go 3 due to the hits, but this is really a 2.

Walk This Way is such a classic but I think my fave from this album is Sweet Emotion. Round And Round certainly borrows it's style from some of my favourite bands so that was an interesting twist on this album.

Meh. Fine but meh. That's my general feelings of Aerosmith though.

I've always thought that I like hard rock, but as this journey goes on, I'm realizing that I just like Led Zeppelin and thought I would like any generic version of their sound. "Walk This Way" is a gem, though.

Its ok. fairly standard hair rock

who the fuck was singing half of that album? we all know what aerosmith sound like and well over half this album wasn't them. that has really thrown me. i can't decide if i liked it or not because i was just desperately trying to picture it being sung by the aerosmiths.

It was a bit like a tribal penis inversion

Aerosmith was the first rock band I had the pleasure of getting to know. Being a young lad and being primarily exposed to the great Guitar Hero series of games, it was like a gateway drug to rock music. Of course, this led to me learning more than a 6th grader ought to about Aerosmith. This band is akin to the Rolling Stones in that they're 1. rooted in blues rock, and 2. relying heavily on singles. Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are bonafide classic tracks, and even the title track is worth a listen, but everything else is run-of-the-mill blues-inspired hard rock. Aerosmith knew how to rock, there was no doubting that, but their capacity to write great songs was inconsistent. This is especially true for ballads, which all but sucked.

Pretty mediocre album in my opinion. Definitely better then Pump though. The guitar sounds where definitely the highlight of this album for me, especially the solo on "No More No More", but the whole album is still not something i would listen to again.

Not my fav band but some truly sick riffs in this. I have to respect

I've never been a big Aerosmithhead but this album is very solid. It's just that good time rock n roll. Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are classics. Big Ten Inch Record is a hilarious cover - love that dick innuendos found their way into songs (original Bull Jackson version is from 1952) over 70 years ago.

Not the biggest fan of Aerosmith. Talented guys but their music is lame. Adam's Apple seems like it was made exclusively to deliver a handful of Bible puns someone came up with, and it sucks. This would get a 2 except that Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are absolutely fantastic songs.

Dig it

Another decent Aerosmith album. Color me surprised. I enjoyed this one pretty well. It's got enough variety to keep me interested. I still don't like Aerosmith overall, but I was happy not to hate this. 3.25/5

Some pretty solid 70s riff rock. The guitar lines are catchy and satisfying, sounds like they would be a lot of fun to play. The standout tracks are the big singles, (sweet emotion and walk this way) as well as the heaviest track "round and round." I cannot stand these horny-ass lyrics. Especially knowing Steven Tyler's underage groupie story, some of these songs really leave a bad taste in my mouth. "Big ten inch record" is a garbage fire song. Overall, a few really good tracks but also lots of filler imo.

"Sweet Emotion" is undeniably excellent, but the rest of the album's just okay. Aerosmith's one of those rare groups that actually got better over the decades. I definitely prefer their stuff from the '80s and '90s.

Stadionsuureellista hittimatskua joka biisi. Ehkä liian ooperallista, tavallaan kuin olisi haukattu liian iso pala. Mutta ei kuitenkaan, koska missään ei epäonnistuta. Monessa biisissä on niin hyvä intro, että se ansaitsee levylle yhden tähden ekstraa.

decent dad rock but nothing spectacular for me. the best songs on the album IMO I already knew. favorites: walk this way, toys in the attic

Some very good/notable songs. Album overall not great.

Three half-decent songs, a lot of bog standard 70s rawk filler and an embarrassment in 'Big Ten Inch Record'. Why is it that there's a bunch of guys who consider themselves Good Sex Men who feel they need to whack a hokey jazz number on their albums? David Lee Roth, I'm looking at you here... Underwhelming, but listenable. Just about scrapes to three stars.

J'aime toujours autant Walk This Way, qui demeure un classique. Bon album, valeur sûre, même si Steven Tyler me semble plus retenu que dans ses albums ultérieurs. Je donne 3 étoiles, parce que je sais que je préfère d'autres de leurs albums. Peut-être que j'aurais donné plus si je ne connaissais pas les autres...

I knew it would eventually come that someone who's personal life makes it difficult to truly enjoy their work - your Kanyes and Eric Claptons. Unfortunately Steven Tyler falls right into that category; if you don't know, he had an underage groupie right around the time of this album whose parents he convinced to allow him to adopt so he could take her on the road and fuck her - it's really gross. A lot of the lyrical content of this album feels extra icky with that knowledge. That being said, I did my best to listen as objectively as I could, so here's what my review would be with no preconceived notions: I'm a child of New England, so of course I grew up with Aerosmith. In my "classic rock is the only real music" phase I would have loved this, but my tastes have drifted and it just doesn't do it for me anymore. I still love Sweet Emotion, though.

Ok

For me Aerosmith are not quite up there with the true rock greats, this album didn't convince me otherwise

2 classics (Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion), but didn't really care for anything else. Big Ten Inch Record is actually awful.

J'avais vraiment peur de m'ennuyer, mais c'était un bon album divertissant. Je m'attendais pas à cette lourdeur ; la première chanson on dirait preque du Judas Priest. Pas mindblown, mais on un bon album rock qui a bien vieilli. Me fait un peu plus respecter Aerosmith. 7/10

It was OK - Walk this way is a great song (though Run DMC made it better)

Dece

I get that this is a classic album, but I'm just not an Aerosmith fan.

Was riding my bike to work today and had an encounter with an older man. It’s not like i whizzed by him or anything and slowed down to essentially a stop and politely asked to get by. Same thing as I do every day and no one ever has a problem. “You’re have to get off walk the bike on the bridge there’s signs”. I say “alright” and shrug it off start to resume pedaling… “but people like you think you’re special, think you can do whatever you want”. Now I stop, get off my bike and turn around. “ I was going very slow and was nothing but respectful. I don’t understand your issue, how did I inconvenience you in any way?” “You didn’t”, he responds “but people like you think they’re better than everyone” “No, YOU are the one who thinks they’re better than everyone. You took it upon yourself to enforce rules that are not your job to enforce. I did nothing to you and you’ve decided it’s your job to tell me what to do. What the hell is wrong with you?”. I ride off. As I’m riding away I look down to see our argument has gained the attention of fisherman below. “Fuck you, dickhead” echoes from behind as I ride into the wind. Based on our brief encounter, he seems pretty miserable. Maybe he has a lot going on. I hope things improve for him. Album was good, I’ve always liked Aerosmith. Ranking something like this is hard because I’ve known all of these songs forever. How would I feel if I had just heard it for the first time?

Eh

Good hard rock but nothing that really interests me. But I liked the good vibes.

I came of age with late 80s/early 90s Aerosmith so for me this record lacks the special sauce that makes Aerosmith fun to listen to. But I understand a lot of purists think 70s Aerosmith is best because you get actual rock without all the affected bullshit airs being put on. Call me crazy, but I prefers the airs to be put on. Here you can see the gradual build up to what they’ll ultimately become. The upward trajectory is just starting to climb towards full-blown Steven Tyler screech singing glory. The singles rule, the rest is okay.

No bubbles here. The staple for this band was in abundance but there are signs of being conflicted with the closers on each side. Very much out of step with the rest.

Didn't really enjoy or dislike it. "Generic" rock imo, didn't stir any emotions or anything, but then there wasn't anything that I didn't like about it, so I guess it is a weak 3 for me, just in the middle.

The albums breath surprised me. From "toys in the attic" which felt like classic rock, to "Big ten inch record" which was old school Rock N Roll, to "Round and Round" which has taken inspiration from heavy metal and "When the levee breaks". Most of these tracks felt like they weren't as good as some the ones they had taken inspiration from. All in all an I liked the album where Sweet emotion is a highlight.

It’s ok but nothing more Prefer the REM cover of the title track and the RUN DMC version of Walk This Way There’s a lot that hasn’t stood the test of time particularly well, but equally nothing that’s terrible

I was highly anticipating this album as I haven’t listened to Aerosmith in ages nor even a full album of theirs. Walk this way and sweet emotion are classic rock songs. The rest of the album was decent.

Much better than anticipated. Some of the bigger hits have worn out their welcome. I like how song styles change pretty frequently to mix things up. Last track kind of soured the overall experience.

I like this album a fair bit more than Rocks. I like Sweet Emotion but it's in the Queen - We Will Rock You bucket of songs I would be content to never hear again because overexposure. Walk This Way is still excellent, great groove. No More No More is another that still gets regular radio play. The first and last tracks are my least favorite. The title track, something about it feels insistent in a really unpleasant way. The last song, I see what they were trying to do with the strings and pleasant major chord progressions but it didn't at all land for me.

Decent...I don't love Aerosmith but enjoy some of the highlights on this album...Sweet Emotion, Walk this Way, absolute classics. 3/5
