Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer says the band's next album is going to be "an old-school Aerosmith record." By "old-school", Kramer means that the band will record "the old way with the whole band [in the same room] and it should be a good one. We're all anticipating." He tells Spinner.com that he's anxious to get back into the studio because "We haven't done a record in so long. I'm really looking forward to it. It's a nice project over the winter." Actually recording the album, however, may prove to be a [...]
Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive As Aerosmith mark their 40th anniversary this year, drummer Joey Kramer has a bit of news about how the band will celebrate. "Yeah, we're going to make an album. That would be very special," Kramer tells Spinner, laying on the sarcasm. "I would like to see a record within a year from the Aerosmith boys," he adds with more sincerity." My brothers and I are destined to make another [...]
Getting in the spirit of the holiday season, Vermont-bred badass singer, songwriter and strummer, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, took to the Exit/In stage in Nashville on Halloween. Complete in country regalia (from l-r in the below image they are Billy Ray Cyrus, Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings) , the band played to a sold out crowd and Potter even led the troupe in a solid cover of Parton's Jolene . Keeping in fine tradition as [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , Television Aerosmith 's Joe Perry and Steven Tyler have seemingly spent more time in the tabloids over the past two years than Brad and Angie. After several near splits, Tyler's injuries, a tour and Tyler joining ' American Idol ' as a judge, even Perry admits to Spinner, "I don't know what's going to happen with the band." Sorry to break this to anyone who's looking [...]
Gibbard, Deschanel, Grateful Dead, and Tyler have all performed at sporting events within the past week.
Photography by DarkMagoo ... Can you imagine that there was ever I time that I 'defended' Bon Jovi over Metallica in the schoolyard? So what that I was only 11 when I did that. I must been've stoned out of my fucking skull trying to convince people that those poodle haired assfaces were anywhere near the acknowledged kings of thrash metal. Anyway, that time has long gone since. What hasn't gone though is my undying love for the crappy music genre that's called Hair Metal ! It's not that I play this [...]
Dopo la reunion semi-ufficiale che li ha portati, nel 2009, a realizzare un tour corredato con CD/DVD live in Giappone (Back To Budokan), i Mr. Big paiono in procinto di dare ai fans una "lieta novella": a gennaio del 2011 avremo il prossimo CD di inediti della band di Gilbert e soci! Ebbene, cari amici di Soundblog, i Mr. Big sono davvero "tornati tra noi" e finalmente, dopo quasi quindici anni, i componenti della formazione originale (Eric Martin alla voce, Paul Gilbert alla chitarra, Billy Sheehan al basso e Pat Torpey alla batteria) hanno [...]
This post could very easily have been titled " the sons of Aerosmith, " because two of the guys in the band are the offspring of Aerosmith rock legend Joe Perry . This week, I talk with Adrian Perry and the guy is not anything like anyone might expect . He was really chill, like a "good ole boy," and had a lot of interesting insights into his music. I tried to get him to talk a little bit about what it was like being a scion of [...]
photography by purpleplaid Baby Please Don't Go is a song that was originally recorded by Big Joe Williams (what a voice man!) way back in 1935. I've heard various versions before (oddly not the mainstream ones) and thought it would be great to share some of them. These are just the covers that I think are cool either because I like the sound of it or because of the unique take on it. I've also tried to keep it in order of release (more or less). I have about 3 [...]
A propósito de que hace unas semanas la (aún) influyente revista NME publicó una lista de los peores "covers" de la historia (destacando el de Celine Dion a AC/DC y Britney Spears a "I Love Rock and Roll" de Joan Jett ), se me ocurrió hacer un listado de algunas buenas recreaciones. lo cual es definitivamente delicado, ya que a lo largo de las décadas y décadas del rock se han hecho excelentes "versiones". Obviamente las mejores creaciones vienen de la mano de verdaderos artistas que tratan de ir más allá de la [...]
It ain't easy being Aerosmith . Between the battles with substance abuse, the battles with each other, and the struggle to keep from falling off the stage, there's a lot to deal with for the boys from Boston. But it has recently been revealed that the band has a pretty big incentive for persevering through their various trials and tribulations - a cool million dollar payday per show. Yep, it turns out that Aerosmith occupies the top position on the list of the top touring moneymakers, by a considerable margin - they leave the other Top Three denizens, Rascal [...]
Man, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry is having a rough month. First, his arch-frenemy Steven Tyler finalized a spot on that TV show about pre-failures caterwauling hit songs while nervous. And this follows still know-it-all beardo John Kalodner's description of Perry as "completely wrong," "jealous," and "ultra-pissed off," which supposes that Perry hoped that the AI [...]
This is something we hope to create more of in the near future. Mixtapes . Themed mixtapes, party mixtapes, genre mixtapes, whatever we are feeling at the time mixtapes. Our goal through these is first to introduce new music to new ears. Pushing good music is something we try hard to do. Second we hope to actually create "good" mixes. Mixes where you can just unzip the folder and burn it straight to a CD or iTunes. It is a complicated formula of coolness that we will use to create these mixtapes. So complex that [...]
Believe it or not back in the days the M in MTV actually meant the channel played some "music". This as opposed to the endless stream of subpar reality shows they are now peddling. When I was an impressionable young teen there was nothing better than catching the newest videos from my favourite bands. It [...]

Filed under: News , Television After what seemed like endless speculation, Fox has finally confirmed that Steven Tyler will indeed be a judge on the next season of ' American Idol .' The Aerosmith frontman will join Jennifer Lopez and the returning Randy Jackson for the show's 10th go-round. "It's being a part of something much bigger than yourself," Tyler said at a press conference. "I want to bring some rock to this roller [...]
Which is a smart move on Fox's part, because now people who have never watched American Idol in the past - like me! - will tune it at least once, just to sate our curiosity. Stranger might be that J. Lo is also a new judge on the show. Various celebrity gossip sites claim that [...]
Fox has unveiled the official lineup of "American Idol" judges for season ten of the talent competition. After Simon Cowell and Ellen DeGeneres jumped ship, Kara DioGuardi was canned and that left the original Dawg, Randy Jackson . Today, in a live press conference that was experiencing some annoying sound problems, it was revealed that the new judging panel would consist of Randy Jackson , Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith rocker, Steven [...]
I've been wondering when Steven Tyler's first solo effort would appear, and that turns out to be now. The man seems to be working more on himself than Aerosmith… he's slated to be a new judge on American Idol, which did not agree with Joe Perry, who stated that "this is no small thing" (RockRadio.co.uk, 2010)… and now his first solo single, "Love Lives," has appeared for a Japanese film titled Space Battleship Yamato. For those of you that remember the cartoon Star Blazers, this is the very same battleship Yamato from the show… which is AWESOME. [...]
