Steven Tyler may be gone from this season of 'American Idol,' but he won't be forgotten -- especially after he strolled out during last night's (Jan. 31) episode to audition for the contest while wearing a blonde wig, lipstick, and fake honking breasts.
Matt Pike of the heavy metal band High on Fire isn't an Aerosmith fan and he's not afraid to declare his comprehensive hatred for the classic rockers. In an interview with A.V. Club, Pike says he calls the "off" button on his stereo the "Aerosmith button" and refers to them as the "crappiest, most overrated s**t band of all time."
After months of speculation, Steven Tyler and fiancee Erin Brady have broken up after a six-year relationship and a year-long engagement. The news was reported by the New York Post on Sunday (Jan. 13), who heard it from an unnamed source.
Steven Tyler's former manager is suing his current one, and trying to pin Tyler between a legal rock and a hard place in the process -- but the ever-feisty Aerosmith frontman is fighting back with a legal declaration that minces no words when it comes to why he swapped representation.
What has it been like experiencing the long, strange journey of Aerosmith? Fans have gotten a glimpse of it thanks to autobiographies from Steven Tyler and Joey Kramer, and there may be even more insights coming from bassist Tom Hamilton.
It took Aerosmith an awfully long time to get back to the studio for this year's 'Music from Another Dimension' LP -- and according to recent comments from guitarist Joe Perry, it sounds like they aren't in any hurry to return.
In the most recent episode of Aerosmith's Making of 'Music From Another Dimension' series, Steven Tyler and Joe Perry work to describe the energy and process of making an album the guitarist calls "closer to the bone and the skeleton of what Aerosmith is than any record we've done in a long time." Episode III was revealed on Thursday.
How close did the other members of Aerosmith actually come to replacing Steven Tyler (under a new band name) when they found out the singer was going to be spending part of his time judging ‘American Idol?’ Close enough to call Sammy Hagar, apparently.
Aerosmith have hinted they’ll be looking back to craft the new songs on their upcoming ‘Music From Another Dimension!’ album. Presumably, that meant working with Jack Douglas again, the producer who helped shaped the band’s early sound. It also means choosing songs that are almost a decade in the making.
Few people have lived out the sex, drugs and rock n’ roll lifestyle — and come out of it with his coolness intact — as thoroughly as Joe Perry. Now, the Aerosmith guitarist is planning to tell the world about what it’s like to be him. In a new interview, Perry revealed that he recently signed a deal to write his memoir with a tentative publishing date scheduled for the fall of 2013, and he vows to include plenty of good stuff.
Earlier this month, Aerosmith confirmed that Carrie Underwood had lent her vocals to the band’s upcoming album. It seems she’s far from the only collaborator. Actor Johnny Depp, former guitarist Rick Dufay and singer-songwriter Julian Lennon (son of John Lennon) also spent time in studio with the band.
