Maybe we'll finally get a new album out of Asmith next year. They've been talking about a new album for the last couple of years. Although I'm a longtime Aerosmith fan, I'm not getting my hopes too high for this. I'd like to see them do a straight rock album, with no pretensions to being hip like Just Push Play, but we'll see...
And please, no more super bowl shows with Britney - though I could see Steven and Joe doing an episode of Intervention with her.
From Billboard.com / Gary Graff, Detroit. Aerosmith plans to hit the studio on Nov. 1 to begin recording its next album -- and that's about the only concrete detail guitarist Joe Perry has about it right now. "I'm not sure who the producer is gonna be or what (studio) we're gonna do it in," Perry tells Billboard.com. "We may use a few different producers. I don't know. All I know is that the heart and soul of the thing is us getting in the studio and seeing what comes out."
Perry did say that the band was "excited Rick Rubin is now in the so-called captain's chair at Sony; his heart's in the right place when it comes to rock'n'roll." Rubin, according to Perry, will be involved with the album in some capacity, even if not necessarily as a hands-on producer. "It's not just about the music; it's about the feel, and he's one of the few that really gets it," Perry explains. The guitarist says there's already some material around for the album, including songs that Aerosmith was working on in 2006 but was put aside when it ran out of time to finish an album, opting instead to stick two new songs on the Devil's Got a New Disguise: The Very Best of Aerosmith collection.
"I always have bits and pieces. Steven (Tyler) always has bits and pieces. It's just a matter of getting together and rehearsing the stuff," Perry says. "I'd like to have songs that the band can play live and have them sound great and not need to have a bunch of overdubs and all that, even though we will do that after the fact. But that's the icing on the cake. The cake is good songs, and that's what we're gonna be shooting for."
Nothing that "I don't think we've ever delivered a record on time since the first one," Perry says he'd like to see the new Aerosmith project "ready to go in March." Besides the album, Aerosmith is also working closely with the makers of "Guitar Hero IV," which will be dedicated to the Boston group's music. "I don't know much about the technical part of it," Perry says, "but artistically we're working hand in hand." Aerosmith will perform at the Fashion Rocks concert Thursday (Sept. 6) in New York before the group kicks off a nine-day tour two days later in Clarkston, Mich. Aerosmith may also play some shows before the end of the year, "depending on how things go in the studio," says Perry.

Aerosmith to return to the studio
Aerosmith plan to return to the studio in 2009 after injuries forced them into hiatus.
The band have not released an album of all-new material since 2001's 'Just Push Play'. Following this, 2004's 'Honkin on Bobo' consisted mainly of cover versions.
However, guitarist Brad Whitford has told Billboard that they intend to change that as soon as they can.
"We're sitting on a bunch of material already recorded for a new album," he said. "We haven't gone back into the studio to put the final touches on it and get it done and we still don't know when we're gonna do that. Hopefully it's gonna be sooner rather than later."
Aerosmith have been plagued with ill health recently. Both guitarist Joe Perry and frontman Steven Tyler have undergone medical treatment for leg injuries – the latter entering a Californian rehab facility so that he could recover in a drug-controlled environment.
"You'd think it was a football team or something," Whitford admitted. "You have more than average concerns about it, I guess. But you can't do anything about it. Like a lot of other things in life, you don't get to call the shots on these things, do you? We're just getting older."

Living on the edge.
At this point I couldn't care less about Aerosmith. I loved everything through "Rocks", but since then, with a few minor exceptions, it's been one overblown yawn after another. If we do get another album from them, it will probably be filled with more Power Ballads. Oh boy!

Aerosmith's Joe Perry denies break-up rumours
Aerosmith's Joe Perry has denied rumours that the band are about to split up by saying a new album "will happen".
Perry who hasn't spoken to frontman Steven Tyler since he fell off the stage in August, was "upset" that the band had to cancel their North American tour, but has dismissed rumours of the veterans splitting.
"Maybe we have three more records in us. Maybe we have five, seven years of touring," Perry told the Boston Herald.
"[We're] taking a breather," he added, but hoped the band would reconvene in spring to begin recording their next album and plan a tour for next autumn.
"That day will come. Whether it's him calling me or me calling him, it will happen," Perry said on reconnecting with Tyler again.
Although the band are officially "taking a breather", they are still set to play two gigs next month on the Hawaiian island of Maui - as a result of a lawsuit after the band cancelled the gigs two years ago, reports the Star Bulletin.
The band have not released an album of original material since 2001's 'Just Push Play'.

While I bought all the albums from their "comeback album" Permanent Vacation on; in retrospect the 1987-current releases just don't equal the 1st 4; the newer cd's tend to bore me these days.

Brooklyn OWNS this charmer!
The last Aerosmith CD I truly dug was Get A Grip...a full 16 years ago.
If they are recording again, they'd better make sure the basement studio they use is reinforced, cause with their luck the whole thing would cave in and kill them all.

My hope that Aerosmith will actually release an album of new material -- or any album at all -- diminishes with each passing year. It seems apparent that the band is barely holding itself together. Maybe it's time for the guys to call it a day.
Joe Perry seems to be the only one interested in making new music -- he's had two albums out in the last few years, whereas Aerosmith has had....none.

As for the post-70s stuff, I love Done With Mirrors, Permanent Vacation and Honkin' On Bobo – the rest is pretty meh for me. I'm disappointed Honkin' On Bobo didn't get more attention.
Unless Tyler gets his act together, we've seen the last of Aerosmith. The guys have also had so many health problems, it may just be time to call it a career. I must hope they can get it together enough for one last go-around. It's be a shame just to have them fade away.

Joe Perry says Steven Tyler has quit the band, so get ready for another class rock act with a new lead singer. I haven't liked Aerosmith for years so I don't care.

DETROIT (Billboard) – Longtime Aerosmith collaborator Marti Frederiksen reports that the group has been very productive during its first few days of writing for a new album at his studio Monrovia, California.
"It's been really good, great," Frederiksen told Billboard.com. "We've been playing songs, putting together riffs, having fun, laughing and working from noon to 11 (p.m.) We're just digging in, man."
Frederiksen began working on January 22 with frontman Steven Tyler, guitarist Brad Whitford, bassist Tom Hamilton and drummer Joey Kramer, with plans to continue through February 2, when Tyler begins his live appearances as an "American Idol" judge.
Guitarist Joe Perry was unable to attend the sessions due to an unspecified commitment, according to Frederiksen, but his bandmates were "missing" him.
The group put together four songs in its first three days of working together, though Frederiksen notes they're not necessarily finished products.
"We're trying to move quick and not necessarily finish up songs and make them complete but just get a lot of stuff to choose from," he said.
He predicts that one of the pieces has "such an instrumental sound" the group may just leave it that way.
"Steven can blow harp on it and it'd be really cool," Frederiksen says. Ultimately, he predicts, "I think we can wind up with a lot of good stuff, and they've got a lot of great stuff already from the past" -- including a series of sessions with Brendan O'Brien in 2008 -- "that hasn't been finished, a whole stockpile that just needs to be produced up. I think they'll be in pretty good shape."
The album will be Aerosmith's first since "Honkin' on Bobo" in 2004, and first of all new material since "Just Push Play" in 2011. Last week, Tyler also announced that Aerosmith will tour South America and Japan later this year.
The progress report flies in the face of some recent negative press that's surfaced regarding Tyler, including a recent New York Post article that quoted Stephen Davis, co-author of "Walk This Way: The Autobiography of Aerosmith," as saying that the band is "unable to work" due to Tyler's "Idol" commitment.
In a statement, Tyler's attorney Dina LaPolt responded, "We are disappointed that the New York Post would print a Sunday story containing several false and misleading statements which was obviously not fact-checked, including comments made by someone who worked on the band's autobiography over 10 years ago."
LaPolt added, "These are the facts: Steven Tyler, Brad Whitford, Joey Kramer and Tom Hamilton are currently in the studio in Los Angeles writing new songs for the next Aerosmith album. The album is anticipated to be released later this year.
Additionally, Dan Weiner, the band's agent at the Paradigm Agency, confirmed that the band will tour later in 2011 by saying, "We are pleased to announce that Aerosmith has confirmed a tour of South America and Japan during 2011. Within the near future we will announce the cities and dates in each territory, and when tickets will be available for sale."
Furthermore, continued LaPolt, "Mr. Tyler's 'American Idol' contract was specifically negotiated to work around his Aerosmith touring and recording schedule. It is the role of band representatives to ensure that all group members and the public have accurate and up to date data and if false information is made public, that these inaccuracies are corrected immediately."

The fact that Joe Perry is a no-show for writing and rehearsal sessions and that the album is being worked on around Tyler's American Idol commitments doesn't bode well for this album, IMO. And the fact that they're working with Marti Fredriksen, who co-produced and co-wrote tracks for Just Push Play doesn't fill me with confidence, either.
I'd hoped that working with Brendan O' Brien indicated maybe they'd go back to basics, but who knows what will happen in the wacky world of Aerosmith these days...?

Aerosmith to start work on new album next month
Aerosmith are finally getting on with the long-awaited follow-up to 2004's 'Honkin' On Bobo'.
In a post made on Twitter.com/admiralperry on June 7, the band's guitarist Joe Perry confirmed: "Whole band has plans to go into the studio with [producer] Jack Douglas second week of July to work on new Aerosmith CD."
He also updated fans with the message: "Laying down some new tracks this week. Been listening to fans' comments over last couple of years putting that in creative blender."
The forthcoming 15th studio album from the rock legends has been stalled by various health, touring and member complications. In 2010, frontman Steven Tyler was rumoured to be leaving the band, but the group triumphantly headlined Download Festival that same year with Tyler up front. More recently, recording had been delayed following Tyler's appearance as a judge on American Idol.
The band's drummer Joey Kramer previously revealed that the new album "Is going to be an old-school Aerosmith record."

Coming since 2005.....a new Aerosmith record!!
Reminds me of Ace Frehley in the '90s. He was always negotiating with three major labels and had a new album coming out "next spring." Took him 15 years, but he finally did come out with one.
I'd like to see one last rocker of an Aerosmith album, but based on recent events...
Maybe Jack Douglas can pull one more good album out of them.

An interesting update on the progress of the new Aerosmith album has surfaced courtesy of producer Jack Douglas.
The rock legends entered guitarist Joe Perry's The Boneyard studio in suburban Boston and their main studio, Pandora's Box, early this summer with long-time producer Douglas to begin recording their 14th studio album and first set of original material since 2001's “Just Push Play” and first studio album since 2004's blues covers CD, “Honkin' On Bobo.”
Douglas has shared an update on the new project.
"The new album should be out around May 2012,” reports Jack. “I know that's a long wait, but after the South American tour and Japan in October, November and December, we will just get back to work on it in mid-January. For those who are asking, this album will be raw, nasty, tough rock with a good deal of the old Aerosmith 'tongue in cheek.'"
The May 2012 date is interesting because, if the stars align, the new Aerosmith record should be released right around the time that Season 11 of American Idol is wrapping up….which could mean the Aerosmith appearance on Idol that fans have been waiting for since Steven Tyler landed his gig on the show….and one that Perry himself referenced earlier this year.
Perry wrote that Aerosmith is "looking forward to playing 'American Idol' next season when our new CD is out and we can prepare [for] a kick-ass show, if they ask us."
Hmmm…the stars could align pretty easily with just a little advance planning, so keep your eyes open for that to happen.
In other Aerosmith news, the band’s classic Columbia Records catalog recordings (1973-1987) will be available for the first time digitally on the iTunes Store beginning Tuesday, September 6th.

Aerosmith’s New Album ‘Crunchy’ and ‘Creamy,’ Says Tom Hamilton by: Joe Robinson
Did Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton just compare the band’s next album to a candy bar? We’re pretty sure he did.
Hamilton, commenting on progress on the band’s forthcoming follow-up to 2004′s ‘Honkin’ on Bobo,’ says, “We’re finished with the basic tracks. We’ve cut 13 basics and we’re gonna sit with that for the moment. The bass parts are done, subject to some adjustments in the future. The drum tracks are all done, and we’re starting to do guitar overdubs. It’s fun.”
Hamilton plans to be in the studio for the rest of the month watching Joe Perry and Brad Whitford do just that. He also reveals singer Steven Tyler will begin recording vocals for the as-yet-untitled disc sometime after the end of the month. But what about the candy-coated comment? Oh yeah:
“We can see and hear the album in our minds; we can kind of tell what’s going on’,” he say. “And I like to describe it as being crunchy on the outside with a creamy center.”
Sounds like a tasty collection of tracks from Aerosmith. No word on when the product will be finished, but we can’t wait to hear more samples (we loved the first two) from the studio!
